Cambridge Satchel  Anmeldelser 

Dreadful product which is not handmade and notthing more than a plastic shopper.

I bought my bag for the equivalent of ~$350USD from the London store in December of 2024, it's my daily bag and it's still in nearly new condition. It's the Sophie Handbag - looks like a little doctor's bag. I'm really impressed with how well it's made, and I get compliments on it all the time.

Wunderschöne Tasche, schneller Versand in die Schweiz und guter Kundenservice! Ich kann es nur empfehlen!

Ordered a Christmas present 30 November - showed as dispatched on ‘shop’ They refunded 10 December siting ‘out of stock’ . 10 days after the order is ridiculous ! Thank you very much #Merrychristmas

Picked up some nice bags from this place both new and 2nd hand. I did visit the store to buy a present for a friend recently and I think that I'm onto a real winner. On top of this as mentioned earlier I bought a couple of bags and some bits and bobs from vinted from the brand and was satisfied with the quality.

Minus 10 if possible. Awful company. Poor customer service. Ongoing complaint re London store. Completely ignored. Now they accuse me of lying. Court action to follow

Scammers! I bought the Miffy airpods holder. It looks nothing like the photo. It is cheap and crap as other reviewers have said and they are refusing to refund the postage plus making me pay for the return. So that little impulse buy has cost me around £14 in postage on a £25 item. DO NOT BUY.

EDITED TO ADD: No, the fact that it did not fit my headphones (a fact not made particularly clear on their website) was not the only reason I was returning it, but also because it was very low quality.

I bought a green Traveller from the Covent Garden branch - the instore service was amazing, they even adjusted the strap to fit even better. Unfortunately, a couple of months later, the front magnet broke. However, I contacted their repairs team and they sent me a new replacement buckle within 7 days (all for free). Amazing bags and amazing service - I couldn't recommend them more!

I used to love these traditional satchels in funky contemporary colours. I collected them in the 15in and 13in sizes, which I found most useful for daily use. I also bought the briefcase in a pale French grey, which I use for work.

The company seems to be moving away from traditional satchels and satchel inspired handbags. They now sell bags similar to those you can buy anywhere else, plus some gimmicky limited editions such as the Hello Kitty ranges.

Please return to your roots and do what you do best, which is not available anywhere else.

I would happily spend more on larger satchels in modern colours to blend with different outfits. But there has been nothing other than the traditional drab colours for ages, perhaps designed more for men than for women.

Yours hopefully

In love with my mini blue satchel . I would definitely recommend

Buyer beware. I ordered the hiding Miffy bag and it has such a difficult clasp. Also, the leather is very, very stiff. The hard part of a return is the fact that I must pay for all shipping fees. From US to UK is anywhere from $90 and up. I was quoted $195 for return by way of FedEx. The bag is nice but it's certainly not worth over $310.

The leather was so stiff the satchel was unusable! I couldn't adjust the length of the strap, nor could I use the buckles to close the satchel. The leather might be of premium quality, but it was so stiff that I think cardboard would have been better. Had to return the bag. The strap was incredible narrow and cut into my shoulder terribly.

Completely awful experience with their customer service!

I have been hesitating in the potential purchase of a bowling bag.
However, at the price (cowhide IS inexpensive! particularly when bought in large quantities).. I honestly would expect a little more care in say, having some lining and potentially a little purse attached on the inside).
Yes, they are cute but the craftsmanship is no better than some high street brands and the materials used are very accessible and good value.
So, The Campridge Satchel Company.. are you selling a name? Even Longchamp are better value!

I’m very impressed with the quality of their products and also the customer service is excellent- quick responses and no quibbles

Where do I start? I placed 4 orders with the company. The first 3 arrived without an issue whereas the fourth one got re-labelled by the delivery company and sent back without being delivered. Here is where the story turns sour. I contacted the customer service department and was advised I had to WAIT for them to receive the item prior to receiving a refund. I argued that I never received the item to start with therefore it wasn't a return but it all fell on dead ears- mind you, I needed the money to purchase another item as this was a birthday gift. This experience was so disheartening that I decided to return the other 3 orders. Mind you, I had to pay for postage for each order over £6 each AND return postage. Needless to say I won't be purchasing from them again. I remember seeing a review on their website which mentioned that items had broken down without a few months and they offer a repair service- however after seeing how I was treated, I no longer believed the customer would honor that if I had any issues in the future hence I returned the other orders. It's disappointing to see that companies expect orders but do not want responsibility. I have since found better UK-made LEATHER items with FREE delivery and cheaper.

I recently ordered a personalized item, expecting a colored embossing as shown on the website. However, what I received was a “blind” embossing with no color, which was not clearly explained during the selection process. The website displayed color options (gold, silver, black), which led me to believe these would be used for the embossing, but the item I received only had the symbol impressed into the leather with no color whatsoever.

When I reached out to the company for clarification, I was told that blind embossing was the only option available, and no refund or return would be offered. The lack of transparency on the website regarding this process is misleading and left me with an item that does not meet my expectations.

It’s disappointing that customer concerns were not addressed more thoughtfully, and I would caution others to be aware that the product you see online may not be what you receive. I will not be purchasing from this company again.

I love my little satchel. Lovely colour and so beautifully made.

Always very friendly and helpful staff in the Cambridge shop as well.Delivery was quick and well notified.

Purchased a Batchel for my wife 12 years ago. Recently had it damaged due to some mould/mildew in our storage closet. Contacted them out of the blue if there's anything that could be done and received a list of helpful tips within hours. They had no obligation to help, but took at least 15 to 30 minutes of their time to provide some after-care to an old customer that they might not make a penny on anytime soon. Top notch. Thank you Amy and the Satchel Co team. When time comes to replace the bag, I know who I'll be visiting.

Already had lots of compliments over it and very glad I chose to have it embossed with the gold lettering, it looks really lovely. Beautiful bag, well packaged and came with a dust bag. 😍
