Ordered Weira tools over 3 months ago, with website repeated stating it had product in stock on line. Never materialized after 2 months of stalling… Read more

and finally i cancelled the order. The website is still stating it has the tools available. A clear case of false and misleading advertising. Time for Consumer Affairs to get involved i think.

of the beams. They are roll formed and at nearly every end they were damaged so they just didn't look as good as they could when butting up to intermediate beams.

doggo goes on it, I can't comment on that. However, I have tried it on my vehicle and it seems perfect for the purpose.

Ordered a dewalt router and plunge base with a battery at a good sale price. But after weeks of waiting and to find out it was sent to completely… Read more

different state. I then followed up with a replacement and waited another 2 weeks to call up again to find out it wasn't actually posted at all and to now wait another week. I asked for express shipping and compensation due to thier mistake and failing to follow up on shipping. With no compensation or anything for good faith for thier mistake, essentially I have to hurry and wait. Good price but wasn't worth the wait when I could have gotten alot sooner for not much more expense. It's been over a month and will be another week or two for the tools to arrive. Poor customer service on the online department for their mistake.

Purchased cordless dewalt grinder as part of a dewalt promotion. Came with bonus battery and charger. Sale went through no problem. A day later was… Read more

emailed to say sorry we have no stock we will restock from supplier so there will be a delay. Three days later I am told I will be getting a refund. That whole time I could have gone to Bunnings or Total tools or any other shop to get this deal and they refund me after the deal is finished. Unbelievable. Sydney Tools is now on my blacklist. I don't care what deals they have.

warehouse. The substantial heads on the bolts meant that no matter what position you are in, installing the fixing, your driver wont slip. Also the shank seems to be more robust, so breaking the smaller fixings is not likely, where the aforementioned competitor, it was a regular occurance.

These guys still wont give up. Had another cold call from them today despite me asking to never be contacted again. We had an extremely unpleasant dealing with this company including broken promises and deception. We wont deal with them again!

We had a really difficult situation with some very old skylights. The Justrite team came up with a flexible solution and the workmanship was better than I expected to be honest. I was so grateful for their commitment to getting a good outcome for us.

tools. So given the weight of everything, sturdiness and reliability are very important. Whilst the accessories aren't cheap, their performance lives up to their price. Very happy.

Furthermore, Arthur was super helpful and responsive and went out of his way to make sure the delivery got to my place, which wasn't straight forward given it was a new build and so not listed on Google maps.

Most of the tools I have purchased from them have been rubbish, their after sales service (with me) has been terrible and in my opinion they have… Read more

dodgy warranty? They won't print negative reviews on their site either.

Trade Tools Vices,, is there a worse vice than a Trade Tools Vice? I don't think so. They would have to be the most brittle cast iron trash in the market. I have had two of them and they both cracked just out of warranty. I have still got a patched up Trade Tools swivel type sitting on my bench that lets go if you use any force.

This is how their warranty worked for me: About a year ago I bought one of their "home brand Dremel" type tools & the switch broke on first use. I took it back & the guy said you bought this a month ago, & I said "yes" but today was the first use. Trade Tools said sorry we cannot give you a replacement but we can fix it.

So get this, they wouldn't replace it but they got a brand new tool out of a box on display, stripped it down on the front counter in front of me & put that new switch in mine, how slack is that. And then it broke again a week later. I decided to cut my losses & put it where it belongs "IN THE BIN".

When they had their old Trade Tools shop (now Sydney Tools) I purchased a STAR Touch up spray gun which was broken before I even used it because it was manufactured faulty & it would not stop blowing air. It had not even had paint in it when I took it back & the staff member said that was how they were meant to be. I said nonsense mate, please give me another gun or a refund. He said sorry no refunds here, and then he made me wait for just over an hour before he got me another one from out back. He was rude & arrogant.

Last week, "out of pure necessity", I had to go there again to by one of their "Renegade" touch up Spray guns ($109.00 - RI102AG-HVLP), and I also bought two different needles & nozzles for it as well (another $60.00 bucks). I would not have gone there if I had a choice, but due to supply circumstances in Brisbane it had to be Trade Tools unfortunately.

First use, I put 100mls of paint into the reservoir to set it up for painting & it leaked paint & spluttered from the nozzle because the brass nozzle holder in the gun body was not even done up tight so it was blowing air & paint out between the join & before it even reached the needle & Nozzle.

This time I did not bother about taking it back to be treated like a criminal, I just repaired it myself. It now works good enough to be a primer spray gun, but that is all it is good for.

I go to Mitre 10 whenever I need stuff. Bunnings is last resort. Lowood Mitre 10 is a brilliant store. The staff are brilliantly helpful, friendly and most importantly very knowledgeable This is one of the best Mitre 10 stores I have been in.

Excellent gardening knife from Japanese Tools Australia – My new hori hori knife is now my favourite gardening tool. It is perfect for extracting deep rooted weeds as it is wonderfully strong, well balanced and sharp.

some quotes from companies. In the end after waiting for callbacks, I decided to attempt it myself. I rang around and discovered that Trade glass depot was one of the cheapest for supplies and gave me all the advice I could possibly ask for. He rejigged my plan, gave me the measurements that were necessary and with very detailed instructions, I called a couple of friends that would be able to help me as some of the glass is quite heavy. I followed the instructions to the letter and I was very surprised at how it turned out. I am very very pleased with the result and I cannot thank Phillip and the guys from trade glass of depot enough. If you take your time and don't rush it you can do a job as big as this I highly recommend this crowd they were great
