I recently had an absolutely fantastic customer support response from Maryda with a knife product that was replaced under warranty. After a few… Read more
initial inquiry and follow-up e-mails, Maryda was very professional and efficient in arranging a replacement for exactly the same knife as the one that had failed. Very impressed with the after sales customer service and warranty support. Very glad we bought a quality knife set from a reputable and very responsive company with representatives that are professional in delivering quality customer service. Thank you Baccarat! Thank you Maryda!

top shelf.
Ordering was simple and straightforward, and delivery was impressively quick, especially considering the item was listed as being on backorder. That level of efficiency really stood out and set the tone for the whole experience.
Where things fell apart slightly was with the plumber they arranged for installation. Plumbing Bros Sunshine Coast initially came across brilliantly, with Andrew going out of his way to shuffle his schedule and fit us in before the Easter period, which we genuinely appreciated.
Unfortunately, that goodwill didn’t last long. Upon arrival, he took issue with there being no pre-drilled hole in the sink which, frankly, is a strange expectation given most sinks don’t come with a spare hole ready to go “just in case” you might want to add another tap down the track. He advised he would need to drill one and charge extra.
We advised that this was clearly included in the package (with only stone benchtops attracting an additional fee). Unfortunately, his response was dismissive and unprofessional, even going as far as waving the drill around while reluctantly agreeing not to charge. From that point on, his attitude noticeably shifted and made what should have been a straightforward install feel unnecessarily tense and uncomfortable.
While this reflects poorly on the installer, it’s not entirely separate from Soda Tap’s overall service, as they are the ones who engaged and recommended the contractor. There does need to be some accountability there, whether that’s in better vetting, clearer communication, or ensuring installers fully understand what is included in the packages they’re representing.
That said, Soda Tap Australia themselves were excellent throughout, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them. If there were a 4.5-star option, that’s probably where this lands, but 4 stars doesn’t feel fair given how strong everything else was.
Arima Homewares
I ordered Miyabi knife and received a faulty product. I contacted Arima immediately after receiving it and provided photos clearly showing the fault.… Read more
I initially requested an exchange and asked for instructions on how to return the item.
I was told the issue would be reviewed within 2 days. After that, I never received the return instructions or any proper resolution. I eventually requested a full refund, but I still received no response.
I also looked through other customer reviews and noticed that several other customers have reported similar issues with receiving faulty products and difficulties getting a response or resolution.
Very disappointing customer service. A faulty product can happen, but ignoring customers after they report the problem and request a refund is not acceptable.
I would not recommend Arima Homeware based on my experience.

soon as I opened the box - I didnt even need to remove the internal packaging. The website promises easy refunds. However, when I enquired about exchanging to the size I needed (which was available), I was told that my only option was to pay return postage for a refund. I could then place a new order for the correct size. The purchase price was $32 + $15.90 for postage. To return the item would be another $15.90. I could then purchase a replacement item for a further $32 + another $15.90 postage. I was told that I could not exchage in store, because I had purchased the original item online. I was not about to spend THREE TIMES my original purchase price, so have since ordered via Amazon.

I recently received a Bialetti Caffettiera as a birthday gift, only to discover upon opening the box that an essential component — the piece required… Read more
to load the coffee — was missing, rendering the entire product completely unusable.
As I did not have a receipt, given that the item was a gift, I explained my predicament to the in-store staff, hoping that a little common sense and understanding would prevail.
I was not seeking a refund or anything unreasonable, simply a replacement for what was clearly an incomplete product. I would have thought that a defective or incomplete item could be returned to the manufacturer through the retailer's usual processes.
Unfortunately, no such consideration was forthcoming, even though the item had been carefully wrapped in the their own paper.
What should have been a straightforward customer service matter became an unnecessarily disappointing experience. I found the lack of flexibility, understanding and willingness to assist particularly frustrating.
Retailers frequently express concern about customers moving towards online shopping, yet experiences such as this make it increasingly difficult to justify shopping in-store.
You would think that one of the greatest advantages of shopping in person should be the opportunity to speak with someone who can exercise a little discretion, offer practical assistance and provide genuine customer service. Not forthcoming. Mr Efficient supervisor approached the transaction with an official looking piece of paperwork. Why bother, when you are only going to decline the request anyway?
When that basic level of service is absent, one has to wonder what incentive remains to support traditional retail.
A little goodwill would have gone a long way. Instead, this experience has left me extremely disappointed.
Good luck folks, you can be the next DJ’s.

Excellent addition to outdoor kitchen. I added the UltraDine MO-61 Inlay to my outdoor kitchen to complement a custom woodfire grill. The two cover… Read more
different cooking methods - the teppanyaki gives me precision and versatility, the woodfire gives me smoke and theatre. The MO-61 is well-built. 4mm German stainless steel, hand-finished. It feels like commercial equipment, not a consumer appliance. The compact size (610mm) fits perfectly in tight outdoor kitchen layouts without sacrificing cooking area. The ThermoFlex technology works as advertised. The plate forms a gentle concave shape when heated, keeping sauces and juices centred. When it cools, it flattens for easy cleaning. I've used it for breakfast cooking (eggs, bacon, hash browns), stir-fries, teppanyaki dishes, and quick weeknight meals. Heat distribution is even, temperature control is responsive, and it handles high-heat searing as well as gentle cooking. Cleaning is simple. Let it cool, wipe down with warm water and detergent. The flat surface when cool means no awkward angles or drip trays. The price point positions this as a premium option, but the build quality and performance justify it. This is a long-term investment. If you're serious about outdoor cooking and want a teppanyaki grill that matches the quality of the rest of your outdoor kitchen, this is worth considering. Would recommend to anyone building a quality outdoor kitchen.

no metal, no high heat. It's totally different from what they advertised, Titanium shield cladding, resist scratch, it's all lies.
