Answer from John Steel
Thank you for your comment. It's true that material costs fluctuate greatly. But you should know that we absorb a large part of this increase. I invite you to look at our prices several times, and you'll see that we try to keep our prices as stable as possible. In the end, we're in line with our market. Wishing you a good day, John

I liked the multiple customization possibilities (although the software isn't very practical, I must admit, and I'm a 3d designer), the speed of delivery and the price. On the other hand, I'm a bit disappointed with the state of finish, the board wasn't perfectly flat, there were slight height differences on the different pieces of finger-jointed wood. It's a shame it took me hours of sanding to improve the condition. In the end, it's fine, but I could have done without it.

5/5 for cutting quality and technical expertise. 2/5 for delivery service and order tracking. An external service provider that seriously damages this company's brand image. Impossible to reach anyone from "JohnSteel" on the website's telephone number. I left several messages on 0 800 746 548 and was never called back. What a shame!

Thank you very much for your comment. We are delighted to hear that the product suits you and we regret that the delivery went badly. Concerning the transport service, you chose a relay point, unfortunately depending on the area this type of delivery is not optimal. Many relay points have very fluctuating opening hours, and carriers sometimes change destination for lack of choice. We are currently working on improving this situation. As for our number, it works well, but I haven't found any trace of calls or messages. I invite you to use the chat and contact form in the event of no telephone response, as we always respond to requests. Sincerely, John

The quality and finish are perfect. The problem is the deadline, which was important to me. There are 3 possible deadlines, so the customer thinks that the dates are respected, and that's not the case.

2 sheet metal plates ordered, laser primer impact on edge of one plate. Suggested solution: spray with acetone!

Answer from John Steel
Hello, thank you for your comment. Acetone (thinner version) is very effective for glue traces. We ask you to use it to clean the plate so that you can see it more clearly. If there is indeed a defect, we invite you to send us visuals and we will systematically contact you to find a solution.

Products Tops. Site not good, required a call to unlock account... Hard to understand. Customer service not always accessible. Quite long lead times, and not always in line with what is advertised by customer service. We come for the products, which are of good quality and perfectly packaged, at least in our past experience.

I was supposed to be delivered to my home on 16-03, so I took the whole day off, and the deliveryman (probably late on his round) dropped the parcel off at a relay point at around 4pm (sms received at 4.10pm), on the pretext that I was absent! Knowing that I'd been tinkering with my gate all afternoon, if a deliveryman had come by... So TNT delivery was lamentable. On the other hand, the parcel was well packed and conformed to the order.

Apparently I had a problem making my parts. There were 3.5mm diameter holes on the dxf file and holes smaller than 0.5mm on the part. I sent photos via the contact form => no return. Apart from this defect, no major worries, it's generally well done and dispatched quickly.

France express sucks. I've explained 6 times where I live by phone. given my cell phone again. I went to pick up the first delivery myself (incomplete and mixed up with another order). I never managed to get J Steel on the phone. Systematically incorrect and misleading information on the France Express Internet tracking system.

The only really negative point, which renders all the other positive points null and void, is the quality of the material. I've never seen aluminum so soft, especially in 4mm thickness, and the plate arrived twisted, which I was just about able to straighten with the force of my fingers. It's a pity, because the rest of the performance is good. I hope the same doesn't apply to stainless steel, and I wish you all the best.

Hello, thank you for your comment. The aluminum we sell is 5754H111 as mentioned in the product sheet. It is not surprising that the part is twisted and easily straightened given the number of cuts and the little material remaining in some places. We remain at your disposal should you require any technical information before placing an order. John

Very disappointed with my order. The piece arrived in a very poorly protected (open) bag. The level of workmanship (detail, care, cleanliness) really leaves a lot to be desired for such a price.
