How do you review an item?
Browse to the item you have purchased and want to review (currently Maplin offer the review option on items over the value of £13.50), click on the "Login and review this product" button found on the product page below the current Star Rating. Log in (or create a new account if not already registered), rate the product on a scale of 1 to 5 based on the performance of the item and then write your product review. Please be aware that if you are reviewing an item bought in store you may be contacted further to confirm proof of purchase.

What should I write
Consider what you or other customers would want to know about the product, how does it perform in a situation, what it does well, what could it do better.

Is there a maximum or minimum number of words on a review?
There are no minimum or maximum limits for a review. However, please be aware that the reviews are for the benefit of other customers and to give them an informed opinion on a specific item. A review that just says the word "good" doesn't really tell them much about the item! Equally, you do not want a review to be too large as many users tend to skim over larger reviews.

Would there be any reason why a review has not been published?
All reviews are moderated for irrelevant or inappropriate content before they are published on the site, therefore some reviews will not be shown. For a successful review the entry must be about product performance. Any customer care related enquiry or comments such as late delivery or faulty products should be directed to our customer care team. Reviews including inappropriate or aggressive language, pricing or promotion information, personal details or Competitor names/details will not be used.

Will a review be published even if rated 1 Star?
Yes, as long as your review meets the required review criteria it will be moderated and published.

Why does my review no longer appear?
If an item has been removed from our product range or has changed supplier the review team will remove existing reviews as they would no longer be relevant to the product. Also, if someone has reported a review as not being compliant with our set criteria or reported it as inappropriate then the review team would also remove it from the web site.

What if I think the product purchased is faulty?
If the product you've bought is faulty, a part is missing or it wasn't what you expected, or you experience a set up issue, you need to contact our customer care team (please see the "contact us" section for details) and they will arrange for support, a replacement item or your money back. Reviews based on faulty or B-grade goods, referring to customer care issues, or those from customers refusing technical support will not be published.

How many reviews can I submit?
You can submit as many reviews as you like on products purchased. Although this would be limited to one review per product (if a user submits multiple reviews on a single product, this will result in removal of all the reviews posted by the user).

What about video or image submissions?
Video and image submissions are moderated in the same manner as our reviews. The following conditions will apply for any media submission.
