Reviews of Lincraft

G. R.

Excellent advice and service. A huge range of product. Due to these uncertain time , some lines of stock were in transit. Well worth a look around. Something for everyone.

T. P.

Super knowledgeable staff who were more than willing help me out with tips and tricks project I needed supplies for. Would definitely recommend for all your crafty needs.

E.

Very helpful staff not a good bead selection but all sorts of stuff and all seemed really cheap

D. W.

They had just what I was looking for and the price was perfect

C. C.

Nice to browse around and things were in sections. Unfortunately there were 3 people in queue and 1 being served.Assistant was measuring out four bolts of materials and I waited for 10mins. They were other assistants in store at the time. The girl serving was still pleasant to the customers even though there was a queue. She eventually called for someone to help.

A. W.

Fabulous range of craft supplies. Lady counter today was delightful ☺️

T. P.

Was great to get what I wanted for my mum see love it the staff was great 👍 thanks

F. S.

Wonderful selection of stock. Good prices. Lovely helpful staff.

C. P.

Nice shop , lots of sewing and craft supplies. Had a great Christmas range in too

R. F.

Best place to browse for patterns or buy thread, many craft suggestions too.

A. T.

Bernadette was a gem. She was so helpful. I'll be back!

j. r.

My wife dragged me in there .. I'm not interested in the products but the staff where super helpful!

J. R.

Its a Lincraft. Lots of stuff for your crafting, sewing, embroidering anything needs, but always a little difficult to find exactly what you want.

D.

Good shop but staff are very slow and vague!

S. N.

Fantastic staff who are very attentive and helpful, and honestly go the extra mile for customers. Cannot complement them enough, especially the (only?) gentleman who works there who has helped me figure out many times what was best suited for my crafting needs. Overall, there is a pretty good, reliable range of items; though sometimes some seemingly-random items are bafflingly overpriced (see $60 p/m linen, $12 for a few plastic buttons, $15 for 100g of acrylic yarn), many more items are reasonable, and sales have good reductions. Not all items are the best quality, but they are not junk either; I'd say things are pretty good middle-of-the-road in regards to price & quality overall, and I'd easily recommend Lincraft over its competitors like Spotlight, Knit World, Briscoes & the Warehouse. I can tell the store must be difficult to maintain item order in--as with all retail jobs--but the staff do a commendable job keeping things looking well ordered & presented, and the layout of the store is effective, makes sense and is easy to follow when looking for something due to signs + the layout. My only (minor) gripes are that the central shelves seem to be re-ordered a lot, and I never really seem to know where what yarn is going to be where each time I visit! There are also sometimes items across the store which are unlabelled, which is a bit frustrating as a customer (you have to go to the counter to ask prices as there is no price checker on the floor) but overall that's a pretty minor drawback. TL;DR: overall a good crafting store with a good range of items and options, and I recommend it as the best all-round crafting store in Christchurch for general creative needs.

Lincraft sells my favourite bamboo pillow. I've probably bought 8 so far and it's the only pillow I buy. I also like the prices and quality of the sheets etc. 5 stars mainly for the pillow

J. K.

Nice store with plenty to see and buy.

S. B.

Nice and friendly love going there well done

F. H.

What an amazing store. Needed way more time to have a good look round. Definitely on my list for next time.

b.

Great survice and price too

L. S.

Managed to find item I've been searching for

M.

All standard habadashery and craft products available

S.

I agree with most of the comments here. Staff are friendly and helpful. And they offer a wide range of many different kinds of products. Besides cloths and fabrics, they have a DIY jewelry section which offers craft materials used for making self-made jewelry.

E. F.

Great shop great variety.

L. A.

Only 1 person serving and no one on shop floor, que of customers. The assistant did eventually ring for help but took a while for person to come down from upstairs.

G. T.

Lincraft has lovely material at a great price this weekend ,a extra bonus with $10. Voucher😊

A.

Great selection of products

S. L.

Love shopping there for crafts materials. Better organised and arranged than Spotlight, so asthetically it's a better experience and easier to find staff when you need help, but the prices are higher and you don't always find what you need so in the end you tend to have to go to Spotlight as well.

V. P.

Loads of hidden treasures in this store.. we love the craft sections, a huge variety of everything you could possibly need, they have lots of different and unique things for sale , keep going back just to see what's on the shelves

J. D.

Great variety and low prices.

My daughter needed items from this store which she found easily. The store wasn't all that big, yet I liked how it was well lit, tidy & easy to navigate between the aisles. The staff at the counter were polite & efficient .

K. H.

Just a quick look around the shop

M. J.

Always helpful staff. Good selection of merchandise.

K. G.

Pretty big store and a bit of everything crafty you might need. Helpful staff to show you around too and the loyalty card gives you a bonus voucher on your birthday so you can buy your own crafty presents!

A.

A very good and big shop that you can find a lot of goodiea for your home I mostly bought sheets ans pillows here but they have a wide range of knitting stuff, too (which I am no expert in that so have no idea) Overall, the quality of the stuff I bought was good, the price is good (but not the cheapest), and the staff are so friendly, too

Very good selection of items and prices. Only down is if you are in the queue and people before you are buying fabric - takes a while to be served as only two people on the desk. But overall good value/experience
