I ordered a cubic metre of what was described on their website as "Garden Bed Mix - A screened soil that has Manure and other additives. A high quality material ideal for pots, garden beds, lawns or any application around the garden." There was no problem with either ordering or the promptness of delivery. However, there were two problems with the product itself. Firstly, the amount delivered was significantly more (30%) than I'd ordered, I was not advised of this prior to it being tipped from the truck, and I had to pay for it. Secondly, and more significantly, the quality was way below what the description indicated. When I watered it, the water simply puddled on the surface and didn't drain at all, and when I forked the water into the dirt (it didn't merit the word "soil"!) it just turned to mud. Dreadful.

However, I subsequently complained, both about the quantity and the quality, and received a generous reduction on the price. The representative I spoke to thought it may have just been a poorly-mixed batch, but I would recommend caution for future customers.

So...
Quality - abysmal.
Service - pretty good.

Approximate cost: $90
