I rented one of the smaller soft plays for my son’s 1st birthday party and it did not disappoint!! T

I rented one of the smaller soft plays for my son’s 1st birthday party and it did not disappoint!! This was stress free just what you need when organising kids parties, even getting to me before my chosen day, this didn’t come with any extra fees, just less to worry about! Easy to unbox and super easy to put together, even comes with a little pump for the bunnies. Everything was clean and ready to go! All the kids loved it. Sending back was hassle free, re box and send off with the courier. AMAZING! Definitely will be using these again in the future and I will be recommending to everyone I know. Thank you so much for making my little boys birthday something to remember for everyone.

Excellent!

Found Soft Play In A Box while searching on Google. What a fab company and great concept. Delivery and collection was smooth with one hour time slots given. We had the soft play for 3 nights which made it very cost effective and meant my son could enjoy the soft play after his party. The soft play itself was exceptionally clean, it looked practically brand new. Easy to pack away ready for collection. Would definitely use again and recommend.

1st Birthday Party Hire

Could not have went better for my son’s 1st Birthday party. Everything arrived with plenty time to spare, all the equipment was spotless and set up/packing was made really simple by helpful guides provided. The team were on hand for any questions I sent over social media. Amazing service, would recommend and use again. All of the kids loved it and used it, from 6 months to 6 years old.

Perfect for baby's first birthday

This was the perfect thing to have in place for my one year olds first birthday party. The kids loved the ball pit and climbing around. It's so hard to think of what to do when they are so little but this was perfect. Delivery came a day early so we were lucky to be able to enjoy it for no extra cost for an extra day. The communication was brilliant and I loved how the boxes had stickers on to show you what went in what box as after 4 days I'm not sure I would have remembered!

Soft Play in a box a big excellent quality & service

Soft Play in a box a big thank you for some absolutely outstanding customer service I would highly recommend you to anyone who is looking to hire this sort of equipment. The soft play equipment was clean and of high quality and very easy to put together. It was delivered before the event and collect as stated after the event. DPD delivered and collected they were outstanding too.I needed to amend my order slightly and this was no problem. Once again thank you it is very rare these days to get such service.

Great process

Such an easy process to book. Got emails in the week leading up to the date to let us know about delivery and links on how to pack away once finished. They booked DPD to pick it up which was also really smooth. The kids absolutely loved the soft play and we will definitely book again. Thank you

1st birthday party

Rented soft play in a box for our daughter's 1st birthday. I was unsure what to expect but have been delighted by the whole experience. We received regular updates on the delivery on our box, (which was sent early at no extra charge!) including when there was a small delay with DPD. The set up was quick and easy, and the equipment was in great condition. The kids had a fantastic time, it kept them occupied all day and the parents were so impressed. I was dreading packing it all back into the boxes but the diagrams and instructions made it so easy, and DPD picked it up within a 1 hour window. Fantastic! Will definitely use again.

Above and Beyond in everyway!

I honestly can’t recommend SoftPlayInABox enough.I booked online for my child’s 1st birthday and was a bit nervous because it sounded too good to be true, but the service was incredible.When delivery was delayed, Charlotte stepped in and went above and beyond in a way I’ve never experienced. She tracked the boxes herself, kept me updated throughout, chased couriers, labelled the parcels as urgent for a very important child’s birthday, and even explored arranging a taxi from the warehouse to get them to us.Even though the delay was completely out of their control, they extended our hire free of charge, which honestly meant everything. Having the soft play at home for longer meant my daughter could use it every single day. She learned to climb safely, go up and down the steps, climb in and out of the ball pit confidently, and by the end she was doing it all independently, even the slide!All that extra movement and confidence strengthened her muscles so much that she took her first steps just before the New Year. We now have a climber and a walker, and I truly believe that having that extra time to learn and explore at her own pace thanks to SoftPlayInABox, played a huge role in that milestone.What really stood out was how much Charlotte genuinely cared. This wasn’t generic customer service it was so thoughtful, personal and kind, Thank you so much to Charlotte and the team, you are amazing!

Absolutely AMAZING

Absolutely AMAZING! Highly recommend and will be using again and again! Hired soft play in a box for my son’s 1st birthday party and they did not disappoint! Good communication with DPD for delivery and collection times! Very helpful with the boxes as they’re a little big! Set it all up for my sons party it was clean and very well packed also came with instructions to pack the soft play back up so it all fit perfectly! I got the ball pit (also with personalisation) 2 ride on toys, step and slide, crawl through tunnel, the rest of the soft play blocks to build with and the floor mats as well. All of my family and friends children absolutely loved it and most importantly the birthday boy he was in his element! I paid £160 and that was including personalised ball pit (writing on the front) had it for 4 days they collect and pick back up! Very very pleased! Thankyou so so much!! Will be using again!
