You will tell me Amazon is the best, I would say that if you compare price and collection and quality, Cooksotre.ca is much better than Amazon. There support is Excellent. The only thing you need to consider its not as fast as Amazon for products that require special order 2-4 weeks. Other than that this is truly the best online store in Canada cost to cost.

Bread Machine
August 14, 2020

The Cook store was very helpful in my order for a new Bread Machine. They kept me informed on the back order. They sent out an email to me expressing that the article was shipped by Canada Post. I gave it 5 stars because they kept me updated.

I contacted cookstore via email about a problem I had with a recent purchase. I received a prompt same day reply not only to my first email but Chloe readily responded to follow-up emails. Everything has been resolved to my satisfaction and I would highly recommend this company.

Please read all the reviews before you purchase from this store.

The shipping dealings are real. I've been waiting since September 2021 - now May 2022 - for my product.

They play games, tell you it will ship, then when you follow up, they tell you there is a supplier delay. I have emails to back up my claims.

They will never follow up with you; so you have to follow up with them.

Today again yet another delay, so I placed an official BBB complaint which was accepted.

Buyer beware; do NOT trust them.

My order took more than a month to get, it arrived broken. I wrote them numerous emails and they answered with nonsense. I will never deal with them again and suggest you do the same. I believe the order I got was a return from another customer as the packaging was not factory.

Inefficient company from initial order (2 months to arrive), to customer service support (slow and sometimes lack of response) to shipping/distribution (poor packing of brakable items), to replacement product due to broken parts (twice), to finally giving up and asking for a refund (good luck, they want to keep your money!)

Day after order was placed I was advised that one item was no longer available by a customer service representative who facilitated my replacement item, very polite and professional. Order arrived within days. I am pleased with my purchase.

Bought an Omcan, single zone, 192 Bottle Wine Fridge - For Fine Wines. Received my $2500 Wine Fridge and set up in my basement. Tested temperature without any bottles in (just in case) and the digital reader on fridge was off by anywhere from 4 degrees on the bottom to 7 degrees on the top. Tried contacting them and they said they could not take to unit back. I contacted Omcan who agreed to send a technician to the house to test and found the same results in temperature variation but said I would have to go back to Cookstore for refund!. Contacted Cookstore and they have given me the runaround and would charge me 35% restocking fee if I returned it. The unit is faulty and does not operate as advertised nor as a single zone wine fridge should work. Filing a court claim this week. Read all the reviews on this company - buyer definitely beware!

Doing business with CookStore makes one forget about Amazon real quick.
Not only was CookStore's price for the Wolf countertop oven more than 200 dollars less
Expensive than Amazon's, delivery beat Amazon Prime's usually late arrivals.
The package was at my door in less than 48 hours, in original manufacturer's packaging
And arrived in pristine condition. From the get go CookStore's service and expediency
Is first rate. As far as the Wolf countertop convection oven is concerned it is worth every
Cent of the price. First class materials and construction (at 50 pounds), solid as a tank,
Incredibly fast and even cooking at all settings, simple operation and beautiful to look at.
This product is the standard of excellence. CookStore and Wolf get Five Stars.
Neither one can be beaten in today's market place.
A sincere Thank You from one happy customer.

Ordering made easy!
June 24, 2020

We are thoroughly pleased with the ordering of our All Clad Gourmet Plus slow cooker. The process was easy and the tracking made simple. We actually received the item a day ahead of time and it only took five days. It was my original intent to purchase the All Clad Gourmet slow cooker for S289.95 at Williams Sonoma in Calgary. I then saw your website with the Gourmet Plus model and realized the marvelous extra features for $324. Williams Sonoma had that same item for $425. What a bargain purchasing from the Cook Store! We purchased this Item because a friend of ours has had the All Clad Gourmet slow cooker for nearly 4-years and is very pleased with it. Our last Crock Pot slow cooker died last week so we borrowed theirs to cook an out of this world corned beef. We seem to purchase the box store slow cookers about every two years. Here is hoping that the All Clad will give us many years of service.

Do not order from this company. They charge your credit card but don't ship anything, they don't answer your emails, when you call, they put you on hold then hang up on you so you have to call again only to be put on hold and then be hung up on again. Nobody ever answers the phone. I will have to report the issue to my bank for a refund.

Cancelled my order
December 8, 2020

Not happy I placed my order & given an order # and on its way 7 days later received an email stating your refund has been placed back to your cc. Phoned the rep & was told the warehouse that they fill their orders were out of stock. They should have known that before they told me the order was on its way.

CROOKS STORE
December 13, 2022

Ordered a SMEG kettle - website said it was in stock. After a few weeks I emailed them to ask them the status of my order. They said it would be 2-3 weeks before they could ship it. I asked them to cancel the order and I haven't heard from them since. They won't answer my many emails, you can only get an automated message that tells you to email them when you try and call them. They have my 250 dollars and I have nothing. I am basically being ghosted. Merry Xmas. Don't trust this unethical company.

I bought the Onni Koda 16 and I believe it has to be the best portable Pizza oven on the planet. Heats up very quickly using the propane but gets results similar to traditional wood-fired ovens. Cook Store also sells all of the accessories like covers and the - soon to be released- natural gas conversion kit.

I ordered 2 frying pans on October 9th. I immediately wrote to customer service to ask for the $10 discount I forgot to apply to my order and they gave it to me. I wrote again a few weeks later because I had not received any notification of delivery. They told me that it would be done within two weeks. 1 month later, I still haven't heard from them so I wrote again but this time no answer. I have been trying to reach them for a month without success. I haven't figured out how to request a refund either.

Fantastic! Great price and a gift! Also, I was able to change the gift for something else! (same point price!) delivery on time!

Customer service on point. Always giving quickly reply.

I have been using them for a while now. I think I used like 5 times, and all times all good. I buy All-Clad products with them and it is always good. And no, I'm not a robot!

I've shopped at the Cook Store a few times over the years and I'm always able to find exactly what I'm looking for at a great price.
My order took 9 business days to arrive (the site suggests 5-10 days) which in this day of 2 day shipping seemed a little slow but I wasn't in a hurry to get the items.
I'm always happy to support a Canadian company and will be back again.

Ordering was easy and service is profesional and prompt. They carry lines that I have had difficulty finding in canada. I have ordered quite a bit over the past few months and continue to do so. Your site is the first one I go to now. Susan G

TERRIBLE`
December 30, 2020

This store is a scam. I bought a coffee maker for over 800.00 over a month ago. Didnt say when they took my money that it was on back order. Then I got an email saying it would be 2-9 days and then for boxing day I see they still have it listed on their site as in stock! I have been emailing for three days for a refund and no one is answering. DO NOT BUY!
