Tldr: Expensive and didn't fix the problem it went in with. Limited opening hours. If the issue with a machine is user error, then it seems they will just conduct an unneeded service. A friend took their machine here with a problem and is too polite to write a review. As others have mentioned, yes the price was agreed beforehand, however for 170 you expect good service - both polite communication and a working machine at the end, which I do not believe they received. My friend was having an issue with her machine so took in the machine with a sample of the sewing to "appraise". She was told

Very expensive place to get sewing machines serviced. Other places will give you a basic service cost (+ cost of parts/additional work) over the phone first but Hampshire Sewing Machines requires you to bring the machine in first before giving any prices, which is a faff.

Please be cautious if approaching Hampshire Sewing Machine for a service. I paid 180 which in my opinion is extortionate. I wasnt impressed with the customer service as I found the man rude. I am annoyed with myself for going ahead with the Service as the machine I bought was 11 years old and only cost me 300 and what the service actually involved is unclear he told me there was a bit of fluff in it. I have phoned these guys in the past and I remember thinking then they were patronising, unhelpful and rude. Ive only myself to blame I suppose.

I would like to warn future customers of Hampshire Sewing Machines that if you book a service for your machine, the piece of paper you sign with your deposit is considered by the owner to be a binding contract. I was shocked that the price of my service would be 120 but signed up and paid 30 deposit. When I got home my husband reminded me that I had paid not much more than that for the machine. I phoned the shop the very next morning and asked that the service not be carried out and I had changed my mind. This is when I was informed that the small piece of paper that I had signed the previous

I visited here today with my parents, having been sewing for 15 years I am very familiar with sewing machines. My mother however was looking to purchase her first machine after moving on from hand sewing. Our experience in the shop and after when we returned to our car were not positive. When he first met the gentleman in the shop he asked us our budget. We responded 200 for a very basic machine, he explained he couldn't help as Covid had meant the machines in our budget had been sold, which we totally understood. No offer of anymore information though. No offer to put us on a list for if those

Hi, I am the person you just verbally abused in your car park! I had an important phone call come through and needed to pull over quickly to answer it, the only safe place was by your shop. I was there for LESS than 5 minutes, how dare you abuse me through my window and demand an apology from myself? My 1 year old child was in the car! Threatening me with tickets and shouting? Very very rude man, I dread to think how you treat your customers! I was legally in my right to stop there to answer a call...... even after telling you I HAD PULLED OVER to answer you still threatened me

Having purchased my wife a overlocker from here a few months ago I have just returned this week to purchase a new sewing machine as my wife was looking to upgrade her current one after some great advice from Pete the owner she now has a great machine that does all the things she requires and is extremely happy with it. We found Pete to be knowledgeable, friendly, and honest in his advice.this is a great shop with a good choice of sewing machines. We totally recommend.
