Customer reviews

We have this child theme for you, so you can save your valuable time and concentrate more on your business growth.

I first purchased the gorgeous theme “Hermes” from Theme Harbor in 2015. This was on WordPress.com and it looked exactly like in their demo website. Years later, I wanted to move my blog to a self hosted, with the theme. Taras from the support team helped me really quickly with that, with only two email exchanges! I can safely say that Theme Harbor support is not second to their amazing themes. Will surely come back, and I recommend them to anyone who needs some peace of mind in their WordPress development.
