What to Expect When You Visit the HiStone Showroom
A visit to the HiStone showroom is designed to be practical and relaxed. Rather than a sales pitch, it’s a chance to see the hardware working, ask detailed questions and compare options side by side. Most visits last between one and two hours, depending on how much you want to see, and are tailored to your business or the customers you serve.
When you arrive, our team will ask about your plans: the type of business, the software you use or recommend, the number of sites and the problems you want to solve. We then walk you through the relevant parts of the HiStone showroom, demonstrating terminals, kiosks, handhelds and kitchen screens in realistic scenarios.
Zones Inside the HiStone Showroom
The Counter Zone
Here you’ll find the HiStone all-in-one terminals and box POS systems set up as they would be on a real counter, complete with receipt printers, cash drawers, scanners and customer displays. It’s the best place to compare screen sizes, processing speed and build quality. Browse our all-in-one POS range for the full line-up.
The Self-Service Zone
The self-service area of the HiStone showroom features freestanding, countertop and wall-mounted kiosks. You can try self-checkout and self-ordering from the customer’s point of view and see how kiosks would fit into your store or restaurant layout. View our self-checkout kiosk systems.
The Kitchen Zone
Kitchen display systems are demonstrated with live order flows, so you can see how tickets appear, change colour as they age and clear when bumped. Hospitality operators often find this the most eye-opening part of a visit to the HiStone showroom. See our kitchen display systems.
The Mobile Zone
Handheld devices are available to pick up and use, so you can judge weight, screen brightness and ease of use for table service, line-busting and stock checks. Explore our mobile POS systems.
The Display Zone
Hisense commercial displays, digital signage and interactive screens show how menus, promotions and information screens can complement your point of sale. Learn more about Hisense commercial displays.
Who Should Visit the HiStone Showroom?

How to Plan Your Visit
To get the most from your time at the HiStone showroom, a little preparation helps. Before you visit, think about the following:
- Your goals – what do you want to achieve: faster service, self-checkout, better kitchen communication or a full refit?
- Your software – bring details of the software you use or plan to use, or a demo version if you’re a software house.
- Your layout – photos or plans of your counter, kitchen or store help us suggest the right set-up.
- Your volumes – approximate transactions per hour at peak times help us size the system.
- Your team – bring the people who will use or support the hardware day to day.
- Your questions – write down anything you want to check, from port layouts to warranty terms.
When you book, let us know what you would like to see so we can prepare the relevant demonstrations in advance.
Finding the HiStone Showroom
The HiStone showroom is located at our facility at Unit 2, Knights Close, Thurmaston, Leicester LE4 8EW. Thurmaston sits on the north-east side of Leicester, giving convenient access for visitors travelling from across the Midlands and further afield. When you book your visit, we’ll send directions and arrival details. Please contact us before travelling so we can make sure the right people are available to meet you.
Beyond the Showroom: Our Technical Facility
The HiStone showroom is part of our wider 8,000 square foot facility, which includes our warehouse and technical workshops. Many visitors are interested to see how hardware is prepared before delivery. Depending on availability, we can show you how devices are imaged, configured, tested and asset-tagged, giving you confidence that the equipment you order will arrive ready to install.
This combination of showroom, warehouse and workshop under one roof is what allows us to move quickly from demonstration to delivery. Once you have chosen your hardware, we can often prepare and dispatch stock items within days.
From Demonstration to Delivery
A typical journey from first visit to installation looks like this:
- Visit – explore the HiStone showroom and discuss your requirements.
- Proposal – receive a clear recommendation and quotation.
- Evaluation – if needed, test a unit with your own software.
- Order – confirm quantities, configuration and delivery dates.
- Preparation – our workshop images, tests and asset-tags your hardware.
- Delivery – equipment arrives ready to install at your site or your customer’s site.
- Support – our team remains available for warranty, repairs and advice.
Virtual Demonstrations
If you can’t travel to Leicester, we can arrange a remote demonstration. Our team can show products on camera, answer questions and share specifications, so you can still compare options before deciding. Many customers start with a remote call and then visit the HiStone showroom in person before placing a larger order.
Why We Invested in the HiStone Showroom
We refurbished the HiStone showroom because seeing and touching hardware remains the most reliable way to choose it. Brochures and datasheets are useful, but they can’t show how responsive a touchscreen feels, how bright a kitchen screen looks across a busy pass or how easily a customer can use a kiosk for the first time. By bringing the full range together in one space, we make those comparisons quick and easy for every visitor.
The investment also reflects our commitment to HiStone and to the UK market. As the UK distributor, we want resellers, software houses and businesses to have a place where they can explore the range, test ideas and build confidence before they buy.
Tips for Comparing Hardware During Your Visit
With so much to see, it helps to compare products in a structured way. Here are some practical tests our visitors find useful:
- Speed – open menus, switch screens and run a few test transactions to judge responsiveness.
- Touch feel – try the screen with quick taps and swipes, as your staff would during a rush.
- Viewing angles – look at screens from the customer’s side and from different heights.
- Noise and heat – fanless designs run quietly, which matters in quiet retail or dining spaces.
- Ports and cables – check where printers, scanners and cash drawers connect and how cables can be hidden.
- Cleaning – consider how easy each device would be to wipe down at the end of a shift.
- Weight and grip – for handhelds, judge comfort over a long service.
Making notes as you go makes it much easier to decide later, especially if several people are involved in the choice.
Events and Open Days
From time to time we host product launches, partner days and training sessions at the HiStone showroom. These events are a great opportunity to see new products first, meet the team and talk to other resellers and software houses. Follow our EPOS blog for news of upcoming events.
A Showroom Built Around Real Businesses
Every display in the HiStone showroom is set up to reflect how hardware is used in the real world. Counters are laid out with the peripherals a shop or bar would actually use, kiosks are positioned as they would be in a store entrance or restaurant foyer, and kitchen screens are mounted as they would be above a busy pass. This makes it much easier to picture how each device would work in your own premises.
We regularly update the displays as new models arrive, so returning visitors can always see the latest additions to the range. If there’s a particular product you want to see, let us know when you book and we’ll make sure it’s ready for you.
Supporting Resellers With Customer Visits
Many resellers use the HiStone showroom as an extension of their own sales process. Bringing a prospect to see the hardware in person often shortens the decision-making process and builds trust in the solution being proposed. We’re happy to host these visits, support the demonstration and answer technical questions, while you remain the customer’s main point of contact.
After the visit, we can prepare demo units, quotations and delivery schedules to help you move the project forward. For larger opportunities, we can also discuss project pricing and staged deliveries.
Our Commitment to Quality
The HiStone showroom sits alongside the processes that have kept us ISO9001 certified for more than twenty years. The same attention to detail that goes into our displays goes into every order we prepare, from goods-in inspection to final testing and dispatch. When you choose hardware in the showroom, you can be confident that the equipment you receive will be prepared to the same high standard.
Combining Hardware Into Complete Solutions
One of the most valuable parts of a visit is seeing how different products work together. Rather than looking at a terminal or kiosk in isolation, you can watch an order travel from a handheld at a table to a kitchen screen, then to a receipt printer at the bar, or follow a customer from a self-checkout kiosk to the exit. These end-to-end demonstrations help you understand not just what each device does, but how the whole system will feel for your staff and customers.
We can also show how Hisense displays fit into the picture, with menu boards and promotional screens alongside the point of sale. For many businesses, seeing the complete solution in one place is what turns an idea into a clear, confident plan.
