Their 3 litre Resolva weed killer fails after half contents still left to use. Useless design. I tried reporting to Customer Services but Westlands website form is broken too. A shambles.
Bought Westland manure & top soil & they are absolutely soaking wet & stink of drains ! Very poor & darent use it as obviously not fit for purpose for veg or flowers … Shame on Westland

We bought chipped bark Beds and Borders in 70 L bags and the bark size is stated as 20mm - 40mm. However, the bark pieces are much bigger, my estimate is an average of 60mm with many pieces over 120... Vis mer

I’d be better off using gravel and bark mulch. Sieved it and found large stones and pieces of glass. The sieved material was horrible. Last year ( 2025) it was good, but this year only good for mulch, am sure you could even make a path out of it as long as you wear shoes. Waste of money.

Ordered a pallet of Jack's magic as i've used it for many years. This year everything has failed or died. I have no idea what you have done to the compost it smells bad goes green and mouldy. Unless you fix it you have lost a decade long customer.

not smart
purchased the westland smart grass seed half came up so reseeded but still patchy then most of the grass died over the winter. Customer service blamed the weather yet my old grass is fine, sent a further message to customer services which was ignored. After writing this review westland have sent a replacement grass seed which is really good of them. I will update in a few weeks time the results.

I bought some westland weed and feed and applied it as directed. My lawn hasn't improved or declined, it is as if I hadn't applied it. The moss is unaffected. Complete waste of time and money

Well I'm not very pleased
Well I'm not very pleased. Everything I have planted with the Westland John Innes compost mix has died. This includes my tomato seedlings and conifer shrubs and also a pine tree sapling. I think I shall go back to using Lidl or Aldi compost in future.

Very good company policy and customer service
quality of compost was initially an issue but Westland was very quick to respond to this and quickly explained the processes involved and resolved the situation. 5 stars for your customer service.

Westland compost a haven for gnats
This is probably the worst compost on the market. This is the second year that I purchased their compost and it is the second time that it appears to be made up of small pieces of wood. I used the compost in my indoor plant pots last year as well as in the garden, and the house started to get full of gnats. My daughter said it was the compost but I did not believe her. Then again this year when I changed the compost, the same thing happened only this time the gnats were far more in numbers. I have now purchased Miracle Grow compost to change the compost in my indoor plants. Please avoid Westland compost till they actually supply compost instead of wood chips.

not even worthy of 1 star
not even worthy of 1 star, Paid £25 from B & Q scarified and aerated prior to seeing , not a seed has sprouted, Total waste of time contacting customer service. They said i shouldnt of covered with fleece !!! no mention of this on instructions. If you want to burn £25 just set fire much quicker than wasting time scaryfying and seeding !!! just awful service

Perfect
I brought a seed spreader several month ago from Homebase. Came to use it this week and a pack of screws were missing. I emailed them asking me to send a set of replacement screws out. They did it without any further questions, or asking for proof of purchase. A++++ just how it should be
Thanks

Customer Service at it’s best
I seem to be the exception here given that my experience with Westland was exemplary. I bought a Kent and Stowe lawn edger approx 12 months ago and it broke. I contacted customer services at Westland Horticulture as they are the parent company. Daniel who dealt with the problem could not have been more helpful and arranged a credit with the Kent and Stowe web site so that I could order a replacement First contact yesterday afternoon and order placed 30 mins ago. To my mind this is how customer services should work If only!!! So five stars to Daniel and Westland Horticulture

Smashed Peckish Balls but THANKYOU for caring
I messaged you (Danial) because the pack of Bird Peckish Balls were smashed. You kept on about its the shops fault. I also enquired about your yellow feeder featured on the Peckish wrapper and you said you would send me one, ....instead....you sent me a cheap looking bullet shape feeder nothing like the yellow one and the balls too were smashed as it wasnt wrapped sufficiently. I have requested to return and you replace it with the yellow one but you dont reply. The birds don't go near the clear one as it scares them and they can't grip it. Please show you care and send us the yellow one. I buy the balls regularly so I am a valued customer.
Thank you for your fast reply I received today. Just to confirm it wasn't clarified by Danial that it would be different to the yellow one featured otherwise I would have said no to the bullet one which is now £1.99 in B&M because nobody wants it. It looks unsightly in the tree and no birds go to it, I think its maybe hard for them to clutch on to it. I had been looking for the yellow one on the packet. I wasn't sure whether it was filled or not.
Thank you for your kind offer of the giftcard and trying to help me get the one featured on the wrapper. It arrived this morning. It really makes a difference to us customers when customers really care like yourselves THANK YOU again.

The lawn weed killer dried out almost the entire lawn, yet the dandelions stayed as green and stubborn as ever. About 95% of the grass is dead, but the weeds I actually wanted gone are still thriving. I wouldn’t take this product again even if it were free.

I brought Westland Moss Master 400sqmtr. I also brought their recommended spreader. But, having followed the instructions fully, the moss lapped it up and grew greener whilst the grass wilted and died. I reverted back to my previously used moss killer which did the trick and killed the moss. But my lawn has been left with huge dead spots - it looks awful! It is going to have to be reseeded. Wont be using it again!

unable to give LESS than one star
I searched for 'John Innes' compost. I bought this J I from westland. Before I go on,let me explain what John Innes is... It is a 'formula' not a brand or logo. It was developed in the 1930's. and is mafe up of Loam, peat (not peat substitute ) lime, grit and sand ,and fertilizers.
This bag , when I opened it looked like the contents of a vacume cleaner bag. and that is NO exageration. It was NOT 'open' and19 certainly did not look like it had any grit or sharp sand in it.
Seems to me that westland think more of so called saving the planet than they do obeying the rules of the John Innes foundation.
I wil never again buy anything with the name "Westland" on it.
If you want proper John Innes soil based compost I would suggest you look elseware.

Mushrooms...
It's very interesting reading these reviews of the Westland multipurpose compost. It has been my go to compost for well over 10 years.
However, this year it is awful. Dries out very quickly and the mushrooms/toadstools everywhere!
I emailed Westland to complain and I was sent a response making me think it was just me - obviously not seeing the many similar complaints.
They did send me a gift voucher which was appreciated but I won't be buying Westland again - such a shame as their compost used to be first rate.

Resolve weed killer does not do the job as specified,I sprayed the product 3 times in one week an the weeds still came back I certainly would not recomend this product.

Awful compost
Only buy Westland John Innes Peat-free Multi-purpose Compost if you want to grow mushrooms!!
It really is poor quality, tomatoes, peppers, etc., are nowhere near as good as previous years when I used B&Q's cheapest!
There are mushrooms growing in virtually every plant pot in the greenhouse and out on the patio pots. One bag I opened had a mass of fungi 'roots' it looked like a spiders web.
They obviously use spent mushroom compost as part of the mix but I would have expected it to b sterilised first.

Svar fra Westland Horticulture
Hopeless
Used the product four times on a few small patches of weeds . They die off a little but within a week they just bounce back . Hopeless , quite frankly it's more effective to just pee on them.
