"The team at Als Models were consistent"

The team at Als Models were consistent, and kept me informed as they repaired an old DX7s Spektrum Transmitter that I had done my best to kill off.
I've now tested the system, and the Tx has benefited from a general and generous service, within a good time frame and to the quoted price of repair.
Excellent service, I only wish more companies would work to this standard.

"A fantastic experience buying for Al’s"

A fantastic experience buying for Al’s. People who are incredibly friendly, hugely knowledgable and really helpful. In addition to buying some bits I needed, I probably spent a good hour just chatting with Ali about all manner of things.

Can’t recommend them enough. Please help keep places like this going!

"What a fantastic shop"

A fantastic shop with everything a modeller could dream of, and so reminiscent of the model shops of my youth! Very helpful and knowledgeable staff too. A great place just to look around and loose yourself for a while.

"What a gem of a shop"

What a gem of a shop. Popped in yesterday with my son to look at buying him his first RC Plane. They could not have been more helpful. Al took the time to explain all the different types and what we needed to get started. Will have no hesitation in going back for the next one!!

"Customer Service and some!"

I have bought numerous models from Als Hobbies over the years from Model planes, cars etc and have always had great experience with them.
I can't fault the customer service over the phone and in store. If you go in store you are sure to have a good time with them and many a laugh had.
I felt this review is a reflection on the hospitality they give and customer satisfaction, they treat you like friends and it's just good old school shopping in a hobby shop. Keep up the great work, and I'll be seeing you soon for my next purchase,.

"I sent my Spektrum NX10 transmitter to Al,s Hobbies"

I sent my Spektrum NX10 transmitter to Al, after crashing its memory while updating the software. Al returned the TX to me "free of charge". It was out of guarantee and I was expecting a fair sized bill.
Well done Al, will be buying from you again.
