Solent has been one of the best companies I have had the pleasure to work with. They are timely in their responses and give a strong impression that customers are their number one priority. From the top down I have not had a bad experience with any of Solent’s employees. The thing that may be most notable about them is there knowledge about the products they sell, which makes the process and stress of purchasing much easier. I have nothing but glowing things to say about Solent as a company.

We bought a Sailrite sewing machine from you some years ago and were very impressed with your service and knowledge and know that we can always easily come back to you for help and advice. It's great to have a supplier as good as you guys so close to home

I've used your service many times and have always found you very efficient and speedy

We just bought a Sailrite sewing machine from Solentsew. It arrived on time and in perfect condition, shipped from UK to Madeira Portugal. The machine is superb, and we are very pleased with it.

Brilliant machines and super support and advice from the Solent Sew team.

Solent listened to what sailmakers needed and produced the right equipment” “People want bigger and bigger sails today and we couldn’t make the sails we make without Solent. There is no comparison between Solent’s after sales service and the competition. They are fantastic.

As the owner of a successful sail manufacturing facility I know how crucial it is that my machinery and equipment suppliers are first class. It is fair to say that since I met Ian Jenkins from Solent, I've not bought a sewing machine from anywhere else. Over the years we have purchased both the specially adapted long arm and short arm machines and the long arm equipment in particular has enabled us to be more efficient, sew further into the sail more neatly and deliver a better product all round. As regards servicing and helping me when the inevitable breakdown occurs, the service I've received from Ian and the Solent team could not be bettered.
