    The guy who served us was super helpful and even spotted the board needed grinding down a bit more before letting us take it away. Gear was all well maintained and staff were lovely.

    Good and friendly service in store but I was hoping your policy would be more flexible in providing me with some money back for only taking the skis for 2 days instead of 4 (as I had prepaid for 4 but plans had changed). I'm unlikely to book online again due to this inflexibility as I paid a lot more money that I should have.

    None of the equipment advertised on the website was available despite requesting it weeks in advance. We had to make do with equipment is cheaper packages than what we had paid for due to limited availability. I have requested a part refund in store but still awaiting any progress on this.

    Store service was great, with pleasant staff who were attentative and friendly. Experience was let down by the quality of the skis we hired. They looked old and not what I expected from the most premium of packages.

    My skis were a bit old and tatty, my friend's skis seemed ok. The shop was busy. I always enter shoe size height and weight but The fitting always seems to happen on the fly. I am never convinced that paying for the more expensive packages makes much difference but there is no way to know.The final stage of the process involved me handing my voucher to the boss. He looked at it and shook his head and said, "you should have given this to me earlier". All that said, I did look at the cost of ski hire in some other local shops and the prices seemed to be considerably higher

    The service was polite, efficient and my ski and boot hire were some of the best I have used. There was no one else in the shop when I arrived (Saturday Midday), I was in and out within five minutes! The person that served me confirmed all my booking details and even double checked if I was happy with my choice and gave me the option to alter it. I very good experience, can highly recommend Skimium for ski hire. I will use again should I return to Morzine.

    Go upstairs for paperwork and then downstairs for skis system a little odd - and not flagged in advance, so I queued theee times. Once in ski queue (to be told to go upstairs), then upstairs (for paperwork) and then back to the back of the ski queue.

    Peclet is a small shop with less equipment than the others. There was no queue unlike Skiset next door. I pre booked and no problems picking up, i just felt that the skis we had were not the standard that I had booked

    I have used this company for 14years but this is now the last time. Ski’s were really poor wuality. Badly maintained and edges dreadful for the ski conditions. This company need to care about the relationship between well mairained ski’s and safety on the slope.

    Overall - great experience - i am a return hirer at the Argentiere Sanglard shop for a few years and service has always very good and quality equipment at competitive price is always offered. Well organised as my ski pack (and all others) was ready in advance and issued immediately, and there is plenty of staff to minimise customer wait even when busy. The choice to hire ski lockers is really good, so we can walk back to accommodation in comfort. Shop situation is very close to ski lift and is short walk in the morning - if snow cover is good, then it is possible to ski back to the shop. Anything to minimise walking in ski boots is good- and Sanglard shop /Skimium

    We rented skis from Skimium at Peclet ski service in Val Thorens. We were really satisfied with this service, it was very quick and easy to both rent and return the skis and also swap skis during the week for snowboards for only a minimal charge. Also got a great group offer on the skis with all the discounts offered online by Skimium. I highly recommend and will we using this service again upon returning to Val Thorens.

    The service was mediocre and the employees appeared arrogant and inattentive. They sent us out of the shop without adjusting the size of the bindings to the boots and without adjusting to the correct weight. There were only one other couple in the store than us -so it shouldn’t be hard to deliver a more appealing service.

    Hello and thank you for your feedback. We always prepare the shoes during the morning of the day before the first day of booking. Customers can collect their equipment from 3pm onwards, so the shoes are dry in plenty of time. We also disinfect all shoes as soon as they are returned, to avoid odor problems, among other things. Don't hesitate to let us know what you think once you're in the store, and we'll make any necessary adjustments. In your case, you wanted to change skis, which we did, but you didn't tell us about the boots. We hope to see you again soon in Chamonix!

    Helmet hurt after wearing, quickly exchanged for a better fitting one. No quibbles.

    The store seemed to be surprised by our arrival, had no record of a skimium booking and had to ask us if we had paid the full amount or just a deposit. Having said that they took us at our word and quickly provided our equipment. On returning the equipment they asked our name but had no record of renting it out! This does make us somewhat worried that there may be some comeback if they have a problem in future. Service was efficient enough but perfunctory, didn't feel we were particularly welcomed. Equipment was OK skis could have done with a wax and edging. Having said we didn't have to wait, was the quickest service I can remember.
