Fast and easy service with good quality goods

Good intial service, products arrived safely. Downside, found the products about 50% cheaper at another retailer who are reliable and trusted, so not lower quality and the aerial which was recommended for my area is not suitable and the quality of reception is worse then the original aerial.

I ordered a 1 in 2 out Hdmi switch but it was out of stock and rather than getting me to wait until it was in stock Blake UK sent a more expensive 1 in 4 out Hdmi switch at no extra charge. It was also delivered very quickly. I would there rate Blake UK ver highly - hence the 5 stars.

TV aerial bought from Blake was excellent quality at a reasonable price after asking a relative in the industry who he’d recommend. Website was easy to use and offered the facility to find the aerial type (K) for my postcode, the nearest transmitter and its heading from my property. Aerial itself is lightweight yet robust and picture quality is superb. Instructions are good. Can’t see how this aerial will suffer from water ingress like my cheap previous aerial. Do it right do it once! Would highly recommend.
