"I have used Eimear’s service since she started professionally, mainly for my students and frequently for myself. Her student reeds offer great value and quality for the price. Professional reeds are perfect for the daily orchestra rehearsal grind. Eimear offers a fantastic personal service and delivers very promptly.’"

"I have been making bulk orders from Oboe Reeds Direct for some years now & the Instrumental Instructors I manage are always delighted with the consistently high quality of the reeds. Our orders tend to be for beginners or intermediate players and staff have no problem with reeds supplied. Always delighted when we find such a consistently reliable supplier."

"One of my teacher's better recommendations three years ago was to try Eimear's reeds, and they have turned out to be the mainstay of my oboe-playing ever since. Her attention to customer care has meant that any problems I had were always resolved with a bit of tweaking, and as my playing has progressed and I moved from batch to batch of reeds, she's tailored them accordingly."

To ensure quality and consistency, all reeds are tested and thoroughly disinfected in advance of dispatch. In addition, during the current pandemic, reeds will to be isolated for 3 days prior to postage which will need to be considered when estimating delivery times.
