So ive received these now and after some contact with the guys at Heavys (went direct to them), not only can honestly reverse almost every word from the below but the headphones themselves are MIND BLOWINGLY good....honestly these things produce some of the best audio i've ever heard....in my entire life.


ORIGINAL:
Back via Indiegogo July 2022 and heard literally nothing from the company since.

I’ve tried contacting them via Indiegogo multiple times, I’ve tried contacting them via social media and literally not a single acknowledgment let alone response.

For over 12 months now (original shipping was meant to be Nov 2022) there has been nothing but excuses, delays and empty promises. Literally not a single solid update from this company at all IN OVER A YEAR!

Yet they continuously self promote all over the Internet and have even stated that any headphones ordered via their website will be shipped by September 2023…how can you operate like this!? The only reason you have a website and orders coming in is on the back of the hard earned cash from your crowdfunders!

Heavy’s is hands down one of the single worst companies I’ve ever (tried to/)had to interact with.

Absolutely disgusting service/lack thereof, a shameless money grab and nothing but empty promises.

Avoid these absolute clowns at all costs!

THE Best Wax Melts

It's difficult to describe just how phenomenal these scents are but what i will say is that after using multiple companies over the years these are my absolute favourites.

The scents are robust, not wishy washy and don't just dissipate after the first melt.

They're truly unique and capture some solid vibes and nostalgia too.

They're packaged beautifully and come well protected so no broken squares etc.

Honestly i cannot say enough good about these guys, i am truly blown away and will absolutely be ordering again!

Nicola Jukes has been an absolute legend.

From the point of moving in to dealing with near endless queries and questions and just being a god tier problem solver, Nicola has looked after, sorted and managed a near never ending string of "ooh i've just found this, can you help?".

I've never been left wondering what's happening, I've never had to chase anything up, Nicola has kept me posted every step of the way and ensured the right people are assigned the right job and always does everything possible to ensure a rapid turn around.

Places for people have been an absolute pleasure to deal with from day one (also another huge shout out to Diane Rawson who was my personal saviour during the purchase and move!!! Cannot thank her enough either).

Thank you so much for being absolutely the epitome of legendary customer service! You guys are amazing :D

Customer Care/After Care: Allan Jenkins
Just had Allen Jenkins out from the after care team to tie up a few jobs/snags and I'm genuinely blown away by the quality of work.

There were multiple jobs lined up and whilst here Alan asked if there was anything else, i pointed a few things and Allan was more than happy to sort these as well.

Friendly, cheerful and true professional. Super high standard of work and cleaned up to the point you'd never know he'd actually been here.

Very very impressed and would absolutely recommend.

Amazing Value and Delivery.

Ordered 2 pairs of shoes and received the very next day. As a vitality member the prices was amazing and there was no fuss or hassle using this reward/discount service.

Will definitely be using again!

Great quality, great value.

Arrived quick and does exactly what it says in the description, would definitely recommend 10/10

Been a customer on and off with these guys for a year or two now and have to say, the service, beers and value for money is absolutely top notch.

The beers these guys find and curate is always on point and then there's the little touches, the magazine, snacks and all those other little bits.

The staff are super helpful, actually know what theyre talking about too and can always nail down exactly what you need. Ben W is a bit of a legend as always helps me out when i need something.

Easily one of the best brands out there.

I’ve got a few bits from Thrudark, T-shirt’s, Caps and the Skirmish jacket and overall, they’re all amazing bits of kit. Even the standard T-shirt from these guys isn’t standard and the humble SnapBack is kicked up a notch. The Skirmish is straight spade age tech in jacket. I’ll break down the review by product.

T-shirts;

I’ve got the original insignia shirt and the limited edition Op Ronin. Both are fantastic, the material feels ultra lightweight but relatively sturdy. It’s breathable but not ‘cold’ and the sizes are bang on.

Cap;

I’ve now got 4 caps and the thing that separates these over any other is the attention to detail on high standard. No transfers or prints, everything is finished in full stitching. The caps wear well, for good and wash well too.

Skirmish Jacket;
I wanted something lightweight but waterproof. Breathable but able to keep me warm. Moveable but sturdy enough to face the elements. This thing is mind blowing. It’s all of the above, it’s like a typical hoody in comfort and warmth, like a running jacket move ability and weight and full on weatherproof in everything else. I’d normally think one jacket could not tick all these boxes and it’s still amazing to me that it does, and that it does them so well!

All in all, yes Thrudark are not the cheapest on the market but they’re not the most expensive and they’re certainly not over priced. If you’re wanting truly exceptional gear that will handle whatever you or nature throws at it then this is the way.

This stuff is designed and tested in the environments it’s meant for by the team that think it up, that’s brand confidence I don’t think you can find anywhere else.

Literally would not look at any other brands for high performance gear.

Absolutely fantastic company!

First came across these guys during the COVID19 quarantine and the price, quality and delivery service were all truly amazing!

Made 3 orders with them now and can’t see really going back to traditional shopping.

Every item is superb, literally some of the best meats we’ve ever had.

One large meat box can be split down with various elements frozen to keep us going for the month.

Cannot recommend enough.

Absolutely love Hermes delivery. Whenever I see a company is using them I know the delivery will be perfect.

Always on time and with bang on tracking info.

As I work from home I rely on deliveries to keep me going and being very fitness focused I also rely on a good stock of recovery supplements. I’ve taken to ordering only from companies that use Hermes or DPD but will always lean toward Hermes.

The fact they use Local couriers who know the area and take time to get to know you as well means you can build a strong relationship with them and this goes a long way.

Also given the current covid 19 situation they’re doing an amazing job of keeping everything moving still. A knock at the door, wait a few seconds to give them chance to leave the garden and then a quick pleasant conversation from door to gate. Excellent social distancing practise and still keeping things friendly and professional.

Amazing service and products.

Ordered a few bits from Tribe over the last few months, protein, hydration, T-shirt’s and other bits and pieces. Always been really impressed with everything.

Protein:
Had bars and shakes, both are super tasty. Awesome flavours and all really hit the spot. Prices are great and getting them delivered in a box is perfect.

Energy:
As above, the energy range is also ultra tasty and good value for money.

Merch:
I’ve had two of their Salomon running T-shirt’s and these are probably the best running T-shirt’s I own. I’ve also got a sweatshirt which is great. All garments a high quality and do what they need to do.

Delivery:
No issues at all hear, the delivery speed is absolutely bang on.

All in all, a fantastic company with a fantastic mission. Truly dedicated to their cause and ensuring you get the best quality possible.

Used MusicMagpie a few times now and always had an awesome experience.

They provide accurate quotes and everything you need to send you gear to them.

Always got the price offered and it's transferred to my bank account nice and quick as well.

Some truly exceptional craftsmanship goes into this gear.

I got a cap and T shirt for Christmas this year and everything from the presentation box to the card that came with just screams (silently) pride, passion and commitment.

I appreciate these items aren’t the top end of the Thrudark brand but I’ve never known the attention to detail demonstrated here shown in any other T-shirt or cap, ever.

Nor have I ever felt such a sense of pride in wearing something. Knowing what these guys are about, who their ambassadors are and what they’ve all accomplished....well being able to wear their logo is definitely something to feel proud about.

I will absolutely be purchasing from Thrudark again.

A truly excellent afternoon of training.

Dean and Vasco’s knowledge is absolutely vast and they cram so much content and value into the session and you walk away armed to the teeth with every tool you could ever want to dominate your social space.

Absolutely amazing guys and thank you so much.

Would absolutely recommend!

Absolutely fantastic!

Booked a table for our Wedding anniversary and cheekily requested booth seating. Having never been wasn’t sure if this was even available.

We did book at prime time (Saturday night 20:30) so the place was busy but we got some comfy seats near the bar and were told it would be about 15 minutes before a table was available. This was with an apology and genuinely delivered to.

After around 10 minutes we were escorted to a booth and wished a happy anniversary and from there on the night just got better and better.

The food here is fantastic, if you’re really into properly sourced, prepared and cooked to perfection Steaks then this absolutely for you.

Every element of our order was put together with truly expert advice from our waitress Gosia, whose knowledge of steak was absolutely phenomenal.

So the food is exceptional and the service we received was equally as magic. Gosia was an absolutely amazing waitress, invisible when dressing the table between courses and available when needed. Her knowledge of the menu was exactly what you need when faced with such a mighty expanse of options!


All in all, this has been a truly fantastic night and a perfect way to celebrate, I can’t thank the staff at Miller & Carter Bessacarr enough for making our night magical.

I was after a TV bracket and couldn’t find anything in stock for the usual places that come to mind.

Toolstation came up in a search and had exactly what I was after and a couple of quid cheaper than everywhere else.

I was able to pay for it online for click and collect. Less than five minutes after ordering I was notified the bracket was ready to collect.

Absolutely perfect. Will definitely check these guys out more often.

Booked with no problem, collected on time and delivered in perfect time and condition. Would absolutely use again and cannot recommend enough.

I stumbled across Goblin Gaming on google. I'd had a pretty poor experience with another gaming company and found these guys stocked the majority of what I was after and even with postage was still cheaper than the other store. They also had stock of a magazine I hadn't been able to find anywhere.

The deliver was fast and everything arrived in pristine condition.

Can't recommend Goblin Gaming enough.

Visited the Doncaster store and left truly happy.

The team there are fantastic, no pushy sales nonsense, no hard sells are reams of endless/useless info; just genuine care, product knowledge and customer service.

We were left to peruse and try the beds at our leisure and whenever we needed anything there was someone near by who helped. The guys there really do know their products and are able to cross sell in the customers favour. The almost laid back approach allowed for an excellent connection and the guys really got what we were after.

As it was a hot day we were offered and drinks and my 4 year old daughter even got a cake out of it (which has subsequently lead to every weekend being asked if we're going to back to bed shop for cake?).

Working for an internationally renowned furniture company (who also sell beds) my standards are exacting, the team at Doncaster did not fail to impress.

If you're bed hunting and in the area i urge you to call in.
