I thought the website was very clear and informative. I liked that you could see how large the stickers were and the activity pages. Need to keep the competitions page up to date. Liked the variety of suggested uses. website was user friendly. Limiting the choices of label design was a bonus for the indecisive!

1. Were you pleased with the service you received? Why? Did the confirmation email provide you with all the information that you needed?

I was pleased with the service I received. I ordered on a Thursday evening and promptly received a confirmation email. I received a despatch email on the Friday and my order arrived on Monday. A week after ordering I received a request for feedback. All correspondance was clear and easily understood.

1. When your order arrived, what did you think of the packaging and information enclosed?

The packaging was neat, tidy and minimal. I thought that the plastic bag helped to keep the stickers clean and the sheets together. The instructions were very useful to explain the cleaning process necessary and correct positioning. I liked the useful re-ordering sheet too. Also liked how that was blank and not pre-filled in so you could pass it on to a friend.

1. How easy was it to use the labels/put the labels onto clothes and other items? Were the instructions on how to do so clear and easy to follow?

The labels were extremely easy to use. Just peel and place. No perforations or fiddly cut outs to have to find the edges of. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. The instructions were very useful to explain the cleaning process necessary and correct positioning.

1. What did you stick the labels onto?

Lunch box, water bottles, coats, jumpers, polo tops, t shirts, shorts, trousers, shoes, trainers, wellys, book bag, PE bag, items that were taken to school for 'show and tell'.

1. How well did the print and labels survive throughout wear and after washing?

The labels on clothing survived being washed in the washing machine and dried in the tumble drier. The water bottles have been in the dishwasher and the labels are still stuck fast.

1. What did you think about the Stikins website? Did you think the website was user friendly?

the website was really quick and easy to use. It was good to have a preview of how the labels would look before ordering.

1. Were you pleased with the service you received? Why? Did the confirmation email provide you with all the information that you needed?

Service was excellent and labels arrived quickly as promised.

1. When your order arrived, what did you think of the packaging and information enclosed?

Item was well packaged. Instructions were included.

1. How easy was it to use the labels/put the labels onto clothes and other items? Were the instructions on how to do so clear and easy to follow?

Labels were quick and easy to apply. Instructions were very clear.

1. What did you stick the labels onto?

Tried on clothes, lunch box and drinks bottle.

1. How well did the print and labels survive throughout wear and after washing?

Only had chance to do one wash due to only receiving email at last minute but none of labels came off in the first wash and looked the same after washing.

1. What did you think about the Stikins website? Did you think the website was user friendly?

Yes, the website was simple to use and I placed my order easily in just a few steps.

1. Were you pleased with the service you received? Why? Did the confirmation email provide you with all the information that you needed?

Yes, the confirmation email was succinct and helpful. My labels arrived straight away which was fantastic.

1. When your order arrived, what did you think of the packaging and information enclosed?

The packaging and the enclosed leaflet were simple. I didn't think the labels needed to be inside a plastic envelope within the outer envelope, within a folded piece of paper would have been fine.

1. How easy was it to use the labels/put the labels onto clothes and other items? Were the instructions on how to do so clear and easy to follow?

Very easy to use. Quick and painless. The instructions were clear.

1. What did you stick the labels onto?

The adhesion to washing labels on clothes and to my children's lunch boxes and water bottles was excellent. However where I stuck them on the fabric of other clothing it was not so successful. They came off socks the first time my daughter put them on.

1. How well did the print and labels survive throughout wear and after washing?

Labels stuck to washing instruction labels lasted brilliantly, those stuck to other fabrics were much less successful. On plastic items the labels held up brilliantly to the dishwasher.

1. What did you think about the Stikins website? Did you think the website was user friendly?

Very easy to use, no problems placing the order. Quick and efficient.

1. Were you pleased with the service you received ? Did the confirmation email provide you with the information you needed?

I got 2 emails, one once I placed the order and second one came when the stickers were dispatched. The emails were prompt and had all the details.

1. When your order arrived, what did you think of the packaging and information enclosed?

The package came the next day with clear instruction leaflet on how to use. I liked the stickers font and just the right size.

1. How easy was it to use the labels/put the labels into clothes and other items? Where the instructions clear and easy to follow?

Very easy just have to remember not to wash the clothing item until 24 hours after you have applied the stickers.

1. What did you stick the labels on to?

I used the stickers on school uniform, coats, bookbags, plimsolls and water bottles.

1. How well did the print and labels survive throughout wear and after washing?

Very well have not come off in the wash or dryer. I am especially pleased with the stickers on the water bottles have not come off in the dishwasher like the first set I purchased on eBay.

Thank you for letting me and my family try these. Will be buying more.

1- website? It was very clear and easy to use. Option of one or two lines of text. Clear prices.
2- pleased/email? Very please with the service. Confirmation email was quick and contained all info I needed. Including checking I had spelled DD's name correctly.
3- packaging? Packaging was compact and simple. Noting exciting but as expected. Information was simple and easy to understand.
4- easy? Labels were very easy to use. Loved that they just stuck on. Instructions easy to follow.
5- stick to? I used the labels on DD's uniform. Coat, jumper and polo shirt. Also her water bottle.
6- wear/wash? Labels look exactly the same after washing machine and dish washer.

1. What did you think about the Stikins website? Did you think the website was user friendly?
The Stikins website was clear, concise and laid out in a logical order which made it one of the easiest websites of its kind to navigate. With Stikins you knew what you were paying and there were no ‘order this way save 8%’ ‘order this way and save an extra 5% on our already discounted prices’ so you didn’t have to sit and work out which was actually the cheapest way to order or best deal etc. I actually went on the site for a quick look before ordering and ended up ordering then and there whilst my 4 year old talked about something and nothing continuously which shows just how easy it was! Another company literally took me days to order from them as I kept losing the will and ended up giving up and going back...none of that rigmarole with Stikins thankfully!

2. Were you pleased with the service you received? Why? Did the confirmation email provide you with all the information that you needed?
Everything went so easily and smoothly that you couldn’t fail to be impressed. No faffing about, pushing extras to buy or trying to upsell etc. Just a nice and simple process, choose the product, choose the amount and enter your name. Done! The email confirmation was delivered quickly and the next day I got another email to say my Stikins were on their way. Simple.

3. When your order arrived, what did you think of the packaging and information enclosed?
I loved the fact that there wasn’t too much packaging and a ridiculous amount of leaflets flogging the next lot of ‘must have’ items and sheets and sheets of order info. Just a nice concise A5 envelope with the stickers enclosed inside a plastic bag (great for keeping the labels in good condition but not sure they should really have a plastic bag when it’s not absolutely necessary) and the order sheet around the bag of stickers.

4. How easy was it to use the labels/put the labels onto clothes and other items? Were the instructions on how to do so clear and easy to follow?
The Stikins were a little fiddly to remove from the sheet but nothing insurmountable even with acrylic nails or virtually no nails like DH has. They were ridiculously easy to apply to clothing and I felt unsure about how well they’d actually work considering how easy they were to apply but they’re still stuck on so far!

5. What did you stick the labels onto?
I had already used a lot of iron on stickers from a different company and although they look prettier they’re more time consuming to apply and my children enjoy peeling them off of their clothes which is far too easy for them to do!! However, the Stikins were quick and easy replacements for the ones they’d already peeled off (I spent £45.99 on those too!!!) and so far they’ve not been successful in peeling them off as they’re not as easy and satisfying to peel according to my DS (11) and DD (4). We’ve used them on all school uniforms (cardigans/jumpers, polo tops, shirts/blouses, trousers/shorts, pinafore/skirts and even shoes/tights) and will be using them for lunchboxes, pencil cases, drinks bottles and other items when they get replaced. They’re as good for clothing as they are for other items so you don’t need numerous different types of labels - one sheet does for literally everything but your child itself...although perhaps that’s next to try

6. How well did the print and labels survive throughout wear and after washing?
As mentioned in Q5, they’ve with stood fiddling with and attempts to peel by bored children. They still look as new as the day I applied them although they’ve been worn and washed numerous times.

I’ll definitely be buying these again. It would be great to see coloured labels but I think that’s just because I like the looks of the others. At the end of the day Stikins far outrank the labels I bought from another company on wash, wear, price, durability and ease of ordering so I’ll definitely recommend!

Thank you for allowing me to take part in the trial.

1. What did you think about the Stikins website? Did you think the website was user friendly?
Incredibly easy - I liked the layout and overall visuals of the site. I was slightly surprised at the lack of designs, colours etc which I have seen on other sites, but that made it super easy to use.

2. Were you pleased with the service you received? Why? Did the confirmation email provide you with all the information that you needed?
Yes, the confirmation email came quickly and gave me all the information I needed.

3. When your order arrived, what did you think of the packaging and information enclosed?
The packing was simple and did the job.

4. How easy was it to use the labels/put the labels onto clothes and other items? Were the instructions on how to do so clear and easy to follow?
The instructions were clear and I had no questions after reading them. The labels are very easy to use!

5. What did you stick the labels onto?
I put them onto my DS's (11) school jumper and his water bottle, as well as inside his school shoes.

6. How well did the print and labels survive throughout wear and after washing?
The labels have lasted really well so far, although I do wonder how long it will last on the water bottle after weeks/months of use. I've been particularly happy to see that so far those I put inside his shoes haven't moved or wrinkled.

Thank you so much for including me in this survey. I will definitely recommend to others.

1. How well did the print and labels survive throughout wear and after washing?

Well packaged and very clear info. Couldn't be easier.

Clothes, lunchboxes, water bottles

Three weeks on and everything is still stuck fast and looks perfect. The best solution I have found for labelling

1. What did you think about the Stikins website? Did you think the website was user friendly?

The website was simple and easy to navigate, it had all the information you might need. It was very refreshing to just have one option rather than getting bogged down in options for colour, pictures and complicated bundles with lots of things you dont need

1. Were you pleased with the service you received? Why? Did the confirmation email provide you with all the information that you needed?

Very pleased, emails were quick and informative

1. When your order arrived, what did you think of the packaging and information enclosed?

Could do with losing the unnecessary plastic but it was well packaged other than that

1. How easy was it to use the labels/put the labels onto clothes and other items? Were the instructions on how to do so clear and easy to follow?

Very easy to apply and use

1. What did you stick the labels onto?

1. Were you pleased with the service you received? Why? Did the confirmation email provide you with all the information that you needed?

It was all really good. I placed the order and it arrived the following day. The confirmation order was clear and contained all the information I needed. I did receive two confirmation Emails for some reason which confused me for a moment as I thought I may have accidentally order two lots but the order number was clear to see and I realised it must have been a computer error.

1. When your order arrived, what did you think of the packaging and information enclosed?

There was a plastic wrapper which I would hope could be reduced or perhaps replaced with paper. The information was very clear.

1. How easy was it to use the labels/put the labels onto clothes and other items? Were the instructions on how to do so clear and easy to follow?

The instructions were easy to follow and it was very straightforward to use the stickers. They peel from the backing with no difficulty and are easy to apply.

1. What did you stick the labels onto?

So far, I’ve stuck them onto various of ds’s hoodies and outer wear for school, a water bottle and lunch box and some shoes.

1. How well did the print and labels survive throughout wear and after washing?

So far, so good. It’s too soon, to say how well they will last long-term, but things have been through the washing machine and dishwasher and still look good.

Thanks for choosing me for this trial!

1. Easy and straightforward site to use.
2. Very pleased with service, ordered at night and shipped day after so very quick turnaround.
3. Came packaged well in a separate little pocket to keep safe. Detailed all uses well.
4. Straight forward to use on everything.
5. I used on shoes, pumps, uniform, p.e kit, drinks bottle.
6. Labels have been through washer, dryer and dishwasher. Labels look as new as when applied so will be long lasting.

1. What did you think about the Stikins website? Did you think the website was user friendly?

Yes, I ordered the labels very quickly and website was easy to use.

1. Were you pleased with the service you received? Why? Did the confirmation email provide you with all the information that you needed?

Yes, confirmation came through immediately. I knew labels would arrive quickly. Very pleased.

1. When your order arrived, what did you think of the packaging and information enclosed?

Packaging was fine, a lot of plastic but I suspect that is inevitable. I was very pleased that it came letter sized so could just slip though the letterbox.

1. How easy was it to use the labels/put the labels onto clothes and other items? Were the instructions on how to do so clear and easy to follow?

Instructions were easy to follow. I have used on clothes, shoes, water bottles and Tupperware. They are great!

Instructions don't say whether or not labels can go in the tumble dryer but imply they can't because of the heat. It would be useful if the instructions were specific on this as I put school uniform in the tumble dryer all the time. They would be no good for me if they can't.

1. What did you stick the labels onto?

Clothes, shoes, water bottles (metal) and Tupperware (plastic).

1. How well did the print and labels survive throughout wear and after washing?

Amazing still look like new. As stated above I would like to know whether they can be tumble dried.

1. What did you think about the Stikins website? Did you think the website was user friendly?

Yes, very user friendly and I liked how the website gave different options and also included a school fundraising section as well

2. Were you pleased with the service you received? Why? Did the confirmation email provide you with all the information that you needed?

Confirmation email wasnt some spamtastic email, just an email to let me know my order had been processed. Stickers arrived promptly which is always a bonus as you're not waiting weeks for them to arrive

3. When your order arrived, what did you think of the packaging and information enclosed?

No issues with the packaging or information enclosed.

4. How easy was it to use the labels/put the labels onto clothes and other items? Were the instructions on how to do so clear and easy to follow?

Really easy. Peel, stick, press and go. Instructions made it clear what you were supposed to do with the things

5. What did you stick the labels onto?

School jumpers, school shirts, sports kit, water bottles, stationery, school trousers, shoes, bags

6. How well did the print and labels survive throughout wear and after washing

The only time they didnt survive was on a 3 hour 90 degree shirt wash followed by a tumble drying. However I wouldnt expect anything to survive that kind of treatment either. They've stuck fantastically to everything else, including the stuff that goes in the dishwasher.

For stick and go-ness I think I will be buying these again. However one of my children's school has a huge problem with labels being cut out of uniform so I think I will continue buying name labels for their uniform.
Dh who is visually impaired said that he found it hard reading the font size. However as the surname on them is 11 letters then I'm not surprised really. If I brought a set of these for each child with first name& surname on them instead of just their surname then he said he wouldnt be able to tell them apart. Perhaps a variety of sizes would be better.

My 11 year old said that they liked them because they were just plain labels without any 'babyish' (their words) designs on them.

1. What did you think about the Stikins website? Did you think the website was user friendly?

I really enjoyed my experience using this site. It was very easy to use and really straight forward. My favourite function is the print preview. I am quite indecisive person and I found this function very useful!!

1. Were you pleased with the service you received? Why? Did the confirmation email provide you with all the information that you needed?

Definitely! The conformation email came straight away and gave me all of the information that I needed.

1. When your order arrived, what did you think of the packaging and information enclosed?

I thought the packaging was very good, I knew straight away what have arrived. I like the fact that all of the detailed instructions were included and were clearly displayed.

1. How easy was it to use the labels/put the labels onto clothes and other items? Were the instructions on how to do so clear and easy to follow?

It couldn't been any easier.

1. What did you stick the labels onto?

I stuck the labels on most of school item. I placed on tops, trousers, PE shorts, shoes, plimsolls, backpack, lunch box, water bottle, pencil case, coat and raincoat. The simplicity of just sticking them on without sawing or ironing, literally transformed this job.

1. How well did the print and labels survive throughout wear and after washing?

So far so good, they look as new even after few washes 🙂 I didn't wash shoes obviously but they look intact despite the everyday use.
