Summer furniture woe
I placed an order with Gamm Vert for six garden chairs and a table with a lazy Susan in June. I received the chairs in June.
Advertisment
The table came in early July, but the fixings to the base were missing, as was the lazy Susan. After many emails and expensive calls, I still do not have the missing items. Every communication I have had states they will be with me shortly.
More than 15 weeks later, I still do not have them and summer is over. Never again will I make this mistake!
