Oh dear, no, no one else sells them. She is so unreliable, such a shame as so many people want them.

D&F Promotions are on the exhibitors list for Malvern but not Lincoln so possibly that's right. I did hear a rumour earlier this year.

I see that the Online Shop on the web site is no longer available.

I looked earlier on the exhibitors list for Malvern because we were interested in the skillet but I can't see D&F on the list...

We had a problem sometime ago when we ordered a double skillet to be delivered to a friend in the UK and after accepting the order they just returned the money with no explanation.

BUT, a couple of weeks ago our daughter in the UK ordered one for us and it arrived at her home yesterday.:thumb:

Many thanks enery8,sold to swimbo at next show.

I don't think she is doing the shows any more since her partner died last year. The last I heard someone ordered one from the website (www.doubleskillet.com) and later had their money returned by Frances. This may not mean you won't get one just that she has no stock. On the other hand she may have decided to pack up altogether. This is the last email address I have for her dandfpromotions@btconnect.com

Hope this helps

double skillet

Keep looking on ebay. They often turn up second hand. I bought one half price with a diffuser and it was in very good condition.

There has always been a stall selling these at the Lincoln steam rally which is on the 17/18th of this month but don't know if it is the same lady. I am going to the show so will look out for it. :thumb:

Double Skillet Ladies

Has anyone seen 'hide nor hare' of these people. I ordered a double skillet off their website sometime ago and have not heard anything since. I have emailed three times and left several messages on their answer service. Went to ring them again today only to find they have removed their contact number and the line is dead. Really really want a double skillet but they are terrible at communicating with their customers. :Angry:

I've been waiting ages for my double skillet also, sent them an E/Mail, but heard nothing!
been trying to find a contact no, but so far no joy, last I heard they were moving offices,
but not very good customer service is it?
Does anyone have any info about the company? they still have their website working so just hope that they are still trading.:Angry:

Double Skillet Ladies

Looks like someone got one yesterday. This has been posted on the Wild Camping forum only yesterday -

We originally ordered in Jan cheque was returned out of stock ordered again first week of April arrived this morning.
We have one we have had for 3 years I remember it took a while to come. Sandra (boss) rang at time and she answered and 3 days later it arrived. So this time we thought it would take 4 or 5 weeks and it


Well, I'm Glad that some one got theirs ok, I ordered one ages ago now, so just a case of waiting and having patience I suppose, not a very good advert for them though is it?:Angry:

Same here, ordered 26th April 2013. New address is D+F Promotions, The Barn, Stoneacre Farm, Matts Hill Road, Sittingborn, Kent, ME97XA. No phone No!:Angry:

Their phone would be red hot, I suspect, fed up customers wanting answers, or refunds,
May be a case for BBC watchdog prog!:Angry:

email address for Frances Foulds Double Skillet

Here is her email address, dandfpromotions@btconnect.com. I have contacted her on this address and had an answer when our double skillet was taking a long time to arrive.
There was a post recently where someone had there money returned so maybe there has been a problem. Worth sending an email to see what is happening.

Just thought I would update, Despite reading this thread I decided I really wanted a double skillet so ordered one regardless (paid by paypal so I had a chance of refund). It took two weeks but it arrived and looks great, We are going to practice with it at home first to get the hang, We got the full kit (Large skillet, diffuser and egg poacher):Smile:

Once you have the skillet up to heat don't forget you only need a really low heat to cook on.

One year. A whole one!
Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but anyone had any dealings with DS lately?

I took a chance on buying one from their website and paid by PayPal two weeks ago, but nothing.

I've dropped them an email to chase. They're not showing a phone number due to an office move, apparently.

Thinking this wasn't such a great idea after all. :Doh:

I ordered one about 5 weeks ago, it took just over two weeks to arrive, hang in there I'm sure it will come and we'll worth the wait, you have plenty of time yet with paypal to raise a dispute.

I spoke to one of their fellow stall-holders and it seems,they are no longer attending shows to sell the skillet or selling it by any other means,having bought a couple of these in the past,i can confirm they are a good product,but
don't last for ever,and then you find out as i did that their "after sales service" is NON-EXISTENT as I found out when I returned a skillet to them that was just not non-stick any longer,it took a number of letters and even the threat of media publicity and possibly ruining their sales demo at the shows,before they returned my skillet to me.
