Hi Colin

Thank you so much for the hob cover.....yet again, it is perfect and thank you so much for your prompt attention. Never sent a photo of our original one back in 2012....to be honest, I didn’t know how to back then!!

Hi Colin

Really delighted with the hob cover which meets our expectations and fits well, is practical and looks great. As you said, on the rare occasions I use the hob rather than my Thermomix, the cover will fit as a splash-back if turned round. Thank you for excellent customer service and fast delivery too. Jane

Arrived safely today Colin, and fits perfectly.

Thank you for the excellent and fast service.

One of my neighbours has already asked for your details as they will be buying a new hob soon.

Best Wishes, Ian

Hi,

Just a quick note to thank you for the hob cover you supplied me, it fits exactly as required and looks like it is part and parcel of my range cooker. Superb finish and obviously manufactured to a very high standard indeed. I would recommend you to anyone thinking of purchasing a hob cover, they would certainly be over the moon with their purchase, as am I. Best regards, Bob

Hi Colin,

I received the cooker cover thank you. I am so pleased with it and it fits perfectly.

Kind regards. Irene.

Many thanks for the oven covers, Colin - great product and great service. They fit and match the oven perfectly (pictures attached).

Best rgds, Chris

It's perfect! I love it! Thank you so much!

Morning Colin

Cover arrived safely 15 minutes ago! I am absolutely delighted with it, almost lost for words. I was sure I would have measured incorrectly and it wouldn't fit or something. The whole process from start to finish was really quite simple and your email assistance invaluable. You can't be blamed for the delivery delay but it's here now and that's all that matters. My heartfelt thanks and congratulations for offering a product and service second to none.

Kind regards Judith

Hello Colin, Sorry for the delay, but the Hobco is perfect. It looks so good on the hob and really tidies up the kitchen.

Regards,

Ray

Hi Colin, Just wanted to say thanks for our Fantastic Hob Cover! Certainly enhances the kitchen and gives an 'extra' bit of workspace when preparing meals and will prove invaluable when we have a 'drains & nibbles' evening by covering the HOB! Many thanks for sorting out the minor delivery glitch! If anyone is thinking about getting any of the Hob Covers, stop thinking about it and just buy one.

Thanks again.

Very kind regards

Phil

Good afternoon, I have just received the cover, may I just say that I am very impressed by the service, ordered and delivered in double quick time. The cover is such a good idea, We have just moved into a house that has a gas hob, our old home had a small stoves range so had a cover. I was trying to figure a way making some form of cover using some framing material but was getting annoyed. Then thought someone must have thought about this, so searching the web found hobcovers direct. Congratulations on the product and wishing you great success.

Thank you

Alan

Hello Colin, Just a note to say my hob cover arrived today and we are very pleased with it! It fits perfectly, and I particularly like the rubber protector to avoid scratches. I will definitely recommend you if I hear of anyone else looking for one.

Thank you again Irene

Dear Colin

Hi Colin Just to let you know my hob cover has arrived and it's perfect!...even been road tested by the cat already! Thank you so much for providing an excellent product and service.

Kind regards

Sue

Dear Colin, .

When I arrived home on Friday the hob cover had been delivered and it's excellent. It does exactly what I need - fits the hob top perfectly and looks great. It's also a lot lighter than I expected which makes it easy to move when I want to cook. I needed a cover because I now have three kittens, and whilst it doesn't stop them from occasionally using the cooker as a walkway, I no longer have to worry that they'll burn their feet or that I need to stand next to the cooker while it cools. It will really make a difference.
Many thanks

Thank you once again.

Kind regards

Janice

Dear Colin

Just a quick note to say how chuffed we are with the hob cover we bought from you last month. It looks good, and does a grand job in protecting the hob and providing an additional worktop when the hob’s not in use.

Many thanks for your help in the purchase, and for prompt delivery.

Colin, Many thanks for your personal assistance, quick turn round, and a superb product. I bought the hob cover to deter my wife from switching on the gas hob. She has Early Onset Alzheimer, and that is one less thing we have to worry about. The hob cover stays down throughout the day and only goes up at night or at the weekend when I am using it - and in the kitchen. The hob cover looks great and enhances the kitchen matching our stainless steel hob hood, cooker and fridge. The fitted hinge is perfect - easily installed - just set out the hood and mark through the screw holes with a board marker. We have not used the locks as out of sight out of mind for the moment. Many thanks again. Colin & Denise

Colin, Just to confirm receipt of hob covers. I have attached a photo of the covers in place-lots of ohhhs and ahhhs as have definitely given the kitchen a contemporary lift as well as being practical! Many thanks for speeding up the delivery. Kind regards,

Hey Colin

Early days yet as I've just received the hob cover and put it in
position, but wanted you to know that on first impressions I'm thrilled
to bits with it!

I've faffed around for years with those circular gas-ring covers, and
then glass worktop savers, but it always looked like a botched job. I
finally bit the bullet and invested in one of your hob covers that
*covers* (the clue's in the name!) the whole hob in one go, including
the knobs and the igniter button.

Prior to ordering I was a bit concerned that the aluminium finish might
look too clinical in my kitchen, but not at all - it blends in perfectly
with my white cooker and just looks professional, and above all, CLEAN!
The dust'n'grease'n'grime that always collected under the knobs will
never happen again!

The all-round rubber edging gives it a well-fitted appearance, and so
far it seems that it will comfortably take the weight of my gadgets
(toaster and blender) without buckling.

Message to prospective buyers... be sure to check the internal and
external measurements which are given on the website. Mine fits my hob
exactly, and would also stand upright as a splashback but I didn't take
into account the electric sockets which are on the wall behind the hob.
Not a problem, as it's lightweight enough to stand further along the
worktop, but do be sure to take sockets, plugs and switches into account.

Dear Colin, We've been away so only just received your covers, I just wanted to sayI am absolutely delighted with them. They are the perfect solution to an issue that has been bugging me for so long! Your company has been a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. THANKYOU for providing such a personal service and for taking the time to answer queries and send drawings prior to purchase. Very happy and I will definitely be recommending you. Emily

Colin, .

recieved my hob cover fits perfectly thanks for all your help

jean

Hi Colin, The hob cover arrived safely before lunchtime today as scheduled. I am very pleased that you decided to make some 60 mm models as our Neff hob needed that little bit of extra clearance. Also as you say the 590 fits in the upright position between the two cupboards as snug as a bug in a rug. My wife and I are very happy with our purchase. .

Many thanks

Brian

My hob cover arrived today and I am just delighted!!! Your help, service, price, delivery and product are all first class and I would like to thank you very much! I have enclosed pictures of the cover in my kitchen and another of my cats enjoying the wrapping! Now I can leave the kitchen after cooking knowing that if a cat should dare to jump up on the cooker hob it won't be hurt!

Kind regards

Hey Colin, the cover is here today. It’s simply AWESOME!!!!! Fits just perfectly (and I mean, like a glove). Looks brilliant. Thanks for your services and time. Rest assures that I’m spreading the word about your company to everyone I know. It’s not going to be hard as I’m sure during my parties plenty of people will ask.

Thanks again

Hi Just would like to say thank you for quick service of your company.

We had been looking for a long time for something to cover over our gas hob to be a usable space under the new fan we had put in. Nothing we looked at fitted the bill until we found your website. As they say it's just perfect. Does what it says on the tin. We had a 590mm hob and a 600mm above. The 590mm full rubber cover fits perfectly, snug fit on hob and fits just right in the space above to make a splash back. Very pleased and can now use the fan for taking other smells away like the toaster, griller and deep fat fryer to name but a few.

Thank you

Mrs N Merry

Hi Colin

Hello again Colin,

I wanted to let you know that we finally got 'round to installing our hob cover, and we couldn't be more pleased with it!  It fits perfectly, attaches exactly as we had hoped, and looks very smart.  It really finishes off our range cooker perfectly, acts as a very easy-to-clean splashback, and  provides extra worktop space in what is a very compact kitchen.

I have been very impressed from beginning to end - great personal service, really swift delivery, and a perfect made-to-measure product, all at a very reasonable price - honestly, we couldn't be happier, and I would recommend your firm very highly to anyone looking for a hob cover.

Thanks again, Emma

This is just to say, belatedly, how very pleased I am with the bespoke Hob Cover and what a pleasure the whole shopping experience was. The website gives off a good vibe right from the start, you bounced back so promptly with answers to queries. The Hob Cover came quickly – very neatly packaged – on removal from its box one could see immediately the Hob Cover was a quality product, beautifully made. Light, clean lines, quality crafting and neatly rubberised – it has been useful from day one

I never write emails like this – but the Hob Cover stands out – and it’s such a pleasure to be able to buy a unique product ‘Made in the United Kingdom’.

Thanks Sarah

Hi Colin,

Just got home and unpacked and fitted the hob cover. Your suggestion of customising the width was well thought out, it fits very snugly around the hob with about 2mm movement left to right, and looks perfect. I have attached pictures as promised....

Top quality service from start to finish, fantastic communications :)

Hi Colin Hob cover arrived today. A perfect fit - could have been made to measure. I'm impressed with the product, and with your service.

Hi Colin,

A couple of photos of our new hob cover. We're delighted with it - it blends perfectly with the stainless steel splash back and extractor hood. The kitchen isn't yet finished - four weeks and still counting! - but we're getting there, and the hob area is a stunning feature. Many thanks for excellent and friendly service. We are spreading the word already about your hob covers - every hob should have one! Howard and Marna
