Following a number of online enquiries I chose Castle Training Academy to provide me with Human Vibration training. The manner in which Castle presented themselves and the whole structure of the course was great.
Upon completion of the training I then had a requirement to purchase a Hand Arm Vibration meter to measure the vibration levels of our tools as part of our vibration risk assessments. I was already aware of and familiar with the Castle Vexo meter as we had used it during the practical sessions on the course.

When the order was placed, I asked if could pick up my order in person and if it would also be possible for somebody to quickly run through it with me, to which Castle happily agreed.

I was very impressed with the run through of the product that Castle gave, assisting me until I felt confident enough to go and take my own measurements. The Vexo itself is just so easy to use. Operating the meter and the VibDataPro software is so logical that at first I thought I must be missing something!

My after sales support has been excellent, and I have spoken to Castle on the telephone a few times for different reasons, not only about the product but also for general measurement advice which they were more than happy to assist with.

I would definitely consider Castle for any requirements I may have in the future.
