While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 931 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Many people were dissatisfied with their orders, reporting that items never arrived or were incorrect. Consumers also had significant issues with products, noting that they were not as described or of poor quality. Furthermore, many struggled to receive refunds, with promises often unfulfilled. Reviewers frequently experienced problems with delivery services, citing delays and lost packages. Communication was also a major concern, as many found response times to be slow or non-existent, especially when trying to resolve issues or request refunds. Conversely, a small portion of people felt satisfied with their purchases, noting that products arrived as described, were well-packaged, and that the delivery process was smooth and timely.

Scam. Ordered in July and items were never received despite numerous emails. I've learned my lesson to always check Trustpilot BEFORE placing an order, even if the website looks legit and has good SEO... See more

Scam alert!

Mary from Kidshive told us that our parcel was in transit on 3rd July 2025 - yes 2025!!! It has not turned up and she refused a refund because she said it has been shipped out. She told us to wait for a week or two but it has been nearly a year and no refund, no items and website has been deleted. Scam artists!

So far

So far, everything has been smooth, delivery was super fast and the toy prices are great. I haven’t needed customer service yet, but the experience has been really positive.

Scam scam scam !!!

I ordered a baby play gym from this site at the end of June and it never arrived. They told me it was stuck in transit and when I later requested a refund, I never received one. The whole experience was horrible. I really wish I had checked reviews before making the purchase.
