Review policy

Where reviews come from

A review can only be written through a private link that Ewald emails after an order has been delivered. The link is tied to that specific order, so every review is from a verified buyer— there is no open review form, and no way to review a board you haven’t bought from us.

What we publish

Every genuine review is published, positive or negative. We don’t select the flattering ones, and we don’t hide the critical ones — if a board disappoints someone, that belongs on the page too, answered honestly. Reviews appear once Ewald has read them and written his reply; that’s a reading queue, not a filter.

What we never do

• No paid or incentivised reviews. We never offer money, discounts, free products, or anything else in exchange for a review — not for a good one, not for any at all.
• No editing.A customer’s words are published verbatim. We never rewrite, trim, or polish them.
• No cherry-picked asking. Everyone who buys is invited to review, in the same way, regardless of how their order went.
• No fake reviews, ever. Writing or commissioning them is illegal in the UK (Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024) and against everything this workshop stands for.

When we remove a review

Only on narrow grounds: it’s abusive or defamatory, it’s unrelated to the product or the workshop, it contains personal information, or we have real cause to believe it isn’t genuine. We keep records of anything removed and why.

Your review
