Too much faff for a cheap pair of specs 21 February 2026

looks = yes, fit = maybe.
I had nagging doubts before ordering — quality, returns, delivery time — and most of those doubts stuck around right through. The glasses themselves aren’t terrible for the money, honestly; they feel like what you’d expect for a budget brand. But then the return saga began. I needed a replacement because the prescription hadn’t uploaded properly (site kept dropping my saved details — annoying). Returns are only via chat, and only one free-ish replacement within 30 days, except no, you actually pay postage. Who still makes you pay to return faulty goods? That felt daft.
Talking to customer service was a test in patience. Chat was often empty, and ringing the number just sends you to voicemail and an email loop. I did send my prescription, showed the saved copy from their site, but somehow it didn’t land properly. They offered a 50% discount as a “solution” — which felt like a shrug rather than help. Then I had to post the frames back at my own cost, wait for them to be processed, wait for the manufacturer overseas to sort the replacement, and wait again for it to arrive. That wait made me question whether any saving was worth it.
Emotionally? Mildly irritated and a bit let down, but not furious. If you want unusual, large frames on a tight budget and don’t mind the administrative headache and slow delivery, go for it. If you value straightforward returns and decent customer support, maybe give this one a miss.
