Delighted and very happy
I took a chance on this company as I’d not heard of them before but I googled for mdf sheets and this company popped up. I am delighted with my purchase as the boards received were cut to my exact requirements and fit perfectly in the space I needed them to be. Highly recommended and a reasonable price too.
