Coordination.
Growplay has amazing customer service throughout the purchase process. They resolved and issue that came up after assembling the unit immediately!
The only obstacle I can say is the assembly wasn't very straightforward and was a lengthy process. However, now that it's up and assembled, it's very much being enjoyed.

Sturdy build, great bounce, and easy setup. Safety net feels reliable, and the frame holds up well even with energetic kids. Compact enough for smaller yards but still spacious for fun. Excellent value for family entertainment.

I read a number of the reviews, and was sceptical, but my order (2 now out-of-print board games) arrived relatively promptly, and was exactly what I… Read more
ordered. I got tracking info, and can't fault the service.
If there were issues before, there don't seem to be any now.
I would recommend them.

poorly designed. My child was uncomfortable riding it, and I didn’t feel confident about its stability. Definitely not worth the money — I would not recommend this product.

I’m really disappointed with this kids ride-on car. The battery life is terrible — it goes flat very quickly, even after being fully charged. My… Read more
child barely gets any playtime before it needs charging again. On top of that, the speaker randomly starts playing audio in a different language without pressing anything, which is confusing and a bit frustrating. There doesn’t seem to be any way to control or turn it off properly. Overall, it looks great but the poor battery performance and random speaker issues make it hard to recommend.

The Jump Star trampoline is not a trampoline designed for long-term outdoor use. It simply does not stand up to the harsh Australian sun and rain. … Read more
Things were good for the first year or two, and the kids had heaps of fun on it. But soon surface rust developed on the springs, and then the stitching started to rot causing some of the springs to become unattached, and finally the webbing disintegrated (turned to black powder), at which point the trampoline was not usable. We had expected a much, much longer life out of it. We still have another smaller trampoline that we bought second-hand. It is not used because that one got a hole in the mat when it was blown into something sharp during a storm, but other that the hole, all the springs and stitching and webbing is still okay, long after the newer Jump Star trampoline died.

The bike is really cute, and seems sturdy. A few problems.. one pedal had no thread when we were assembling the bike, and the other problem was that… Read more
it had rust within 5 days, stored in a garage. Unfortunately now after a few weeks it looks years old. We did contact the company but the response was that it was not really their problem, and is exposure to the elements. Even though it was all sun and stored undercover, used a maximum of 1.5 hours. No other bikes we have rust that quickly - even after years. They did offer a $35 refund but it's not about money, it's just a little disappointing the materials aren't a high quality because it was a much loved main birthday present for a 3 year old

Product ordered (1 of 2) - first product shipped, other item never shipped. Company said they would send it. Never did. No response to follow up emails. Terrible. If you don't have the product, just refund my money!

my granddaughter loves her swings. Sturdy enough for play for many years to come. This sort of service and quality product has become rare these days and deserves a shout out when a company delivers it! Well done Gobaplay and Thank you.
The Best Transformers Retailer for Australians – TFtoys or Savier's Toys is an official and third party (unlicensed figures) retailer in Australia. I've bought from them for years now and been… Read more
constantly impressed by their quick and helpful customer service, amazing prices, and wide range of stock. I've had figures come with missing or incorrect parts (manufactures fault) and after messaging about it, replacements are sent out eventually. The prices are cheaper almost every time than any Chinese or other retailer when compared. Packages are shipped out quickly and are packaged well with no memory of any box or figure being damaged by the retailer. I fully recommend buying from them if you collect any third party Transformers specifically and I will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.

stating no refund will be provided. Yet the item is dangerous and cannot be used without a ladder. Do NOT purchase from this company. The same item was half the price on temple and webster too which I only found out after purchase.

Shopping with Metro Hobbies online is genuinely a breeze. The website is laid out in a way that makes everything easy to find—whether you’re hunting… Read more
for model kits, RC gear, paints, or something a bit more niche. The search function actually works (a rare joy), and the product pages are clear, detailed, and helpful.
Checkout is quick, smooth, and hassle‑free, and the shipping updates come through reliably so you always know where your order is. It feels like the whole online store was designed with hobbyists in mind: simple, fast, and frustration‑free.
If you want an online hobby shop that’s easy to navigate and consistently delivers a good experience, Metro Hobbies nails it.

Communication was excellent from start to finish and they were super friendly, honest, and transparent about pricing, shipping, and options.
They took the time to explain everything clearly, worked with me on shipping, and made the whole process feel easy and stress free. You can really tell they care about their customers and about running their business the right way, not just pushing a sale.
It’s rare to find this level of personal service these days, and I genuinely appreciate the effort and kindness shown throughout the process. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy from them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality figures and great service.
Will definitely be back for more figures in the future

Casey's Toy's first, thence we were going to K mart, Target and Big 'W' if we didn't find anything. Kellie, a staff member asked us if she could help. We told her that we were looking for something for our great nephew, who is turning three, and he likes to pull things apart and put them back together again. Kellie said come with me and showed us this toy which had three different types of trucks with sixty one removable parts plus a battery operated drill. To cut a long story short we bought it which saved us a lot of time and stress. Our great nephew absolutely loved it. Thank you and thank you again Kellie for helping us. 5 out of 5 stars from my wife and I to you.
