Let customers speak for us
from 166 reviewsvery comfortable and well made, arrived very quickly.
Excellent value just waiting for the swarm to move in!
Haven’t used it yet, though is really good quality item. Was really surprised at the quality considering the price point.
As usual great quality, carefully packed and delivered promptly. Happy to recommend AGS.
i'm 6ft 1 and bought a 3XL, which fits nicely. Have worn suit a few times and feels and now used to putting it on. Feels like it's well made, comfortable and i particularly like the fencing hood which you can open. As ever, great service from AGS
Very good suit. Well made, robust. Heavy but once it's on, that doesn't notice. Love the pockets.
Perfect be space and kinder for the bees than the plastic grid.
Great fit great quality and a great price I wasn’t stung once
As always, great products from AGS and good value too.
Great service and good quality for the price. A very happy little bee keeper in the making.
Very nice jacket. I knew it was oversized so got M (I am 181cm, 80kg). The neck has too much excess fabric, it is not causing a problem but maybe it can be adjusted on a future design.
well made frames, easy to asseemble, efficient service. I'm now a repeat customer
Good quality easy to put together frames
