Burden Electronics

Born from a successful career in electronics, hydraulics and automation, Henry Burden started Burden Electronics over 40 years ago specialising in the rental, servicing, and repair of TV sets.

Based on the founder’s insistence on know-how and meticulous servicing, his first-rate service soon became so popular that he took workshop premises on the present site at 160 County Road.

Joined by his son Randolph Burden in 1974 due to the increasing demand for colour television sets, Burden Electronics entered a new era. And the new partnership soon expanded from its workshop base into a new retail showroom at the front of the building.

Opened on the 20th December 1976, the shop boasted a complete range of TV sets, radios, record players, cassette decks and music centres, at the time we also offered smaller equipment including irons, hairdryers, and other accessories such as headphones and microphones.

From this date Burdens Electronics has moved from strength to strength continuing to offer an unrivalled service for TV's and other entertainment products we now offer a full selection of Domestic Appliances, Home Cinema systems, Commercial audio, and Video solutions (including CCTV) and Multi-Room Hi-fi.

Although the service department has moved to alternative premises, Burden's shop is still situated in the building at 160 County Road. But reassuringly, the one thing that hasn't changed over the years is Burden's dedication to prompt and efficient attention to ensure complete customer satisfaction. This was backed up in 2006 when we were presented with Domestic & Generals Independent Retailer of the year award.

 At Burdens we have been dedicated to providing the finest quality electrical goods for nearly 40 years. This, together with our price competitiveness and service back-up means no one in Swindon has more experience to help choose the most suitable product.

We are focused on our customers and as such prefer to deal with you directly in the store or over the phone. This allows us to make sure you are buying the best product for your needs and budget, something which can often get missed when relying on emails or on-line purchases.

In Store we focus on brands we know and trust & who we have dealt with directly for many years. These brands are Panasonic, Bose, Siemens, Hotpoint, Bosch, Lec, Stoves, Belling, Liebherr, Indesit, Cannon, Alphason Designs & Peerless.

We also have access to most of major brands currently available in the UK such as Samsung, Hoover, LG, Toshiba, Beko, Whirlpool, Zanussi, Electrolux & many more.
