“We have been using Combi Nation for several years and have always found the service provided to be excellent. Our requests are answered quickly and on a couple of occasions Matt has been with us within hours of something breaking down. This is invaluable especially as we cook daily for over 300 people. The overall service provided is always quick and efficient and the majority of issues we have are always resolved during the visit.”
Lesley ODonovan, Deputy Catering Manager, Exeter College.
"Matt has just installed a third Rational oven for us, and once again his service exceeds expectations. Even with equipment as good as Rationale inevitably problems will arise, a call to Matt either gives us a solution or he's on his way to the shop to help. Always helpful and a great service. Thanks for the years of support Matt".

"Couldn't ask for better service, I rang at 8pm on Friday night just before Mother's Day as our Combi stopped working through service, Matt was there in half an hour and sorted the problem extremely quickly so we could get back on track within 10 minutes, which was greatly appreciated.
