Uniden SS E45
SOME PROBLEM SOLVINGProblems : The on-line flutter, flashing red light on the handsets, and the voice mail icon displaying on the handsets when there is no message. Phone 1300 366 895 for emailed instructions to fix thi…s, and any other issues that are not clearly explained in the manual. We had to start with Optus to activate its voice mail on our landline, checked it for messages (which strangely were only our current test messages on the new system), delete them (also using *69 to be sure everything was wiped), and then had Optus immediately cancel the service. We have reinstalled the new phone according to Uniden’s email, and it has worked … no more flashing light, and the flutter and icon have gone. We cannot understand why there could have been any interference from Optus during the immediate switch over from the old system, as we have never used its voice mail service. In doing the reinstallation, phone book numbers and the recorded message were lost, plus the recording time for messages (which if it isn’t long enough won’t allow messages to record). Also, when reinstalling, put the second handset on the main base to ‘register’. Considering this hearing-boosted system would most likely be purchased by older people who might not be tech savvy, why is something that should be simple, so complicated? However, the boosted hearing and loud ring tone are worth working through the irritations. I have to give a rating above, and gave it five stars in the expectation of no more hiccups, and as good a product as the one it has replaced.

The Good Guys Physical store
WALLETS WALK OUT THE DOORThe franchisee of the Bundall Gold Coast store needs to (1) pay attention to what happens (or not) on the floor of his shop, and (2) send his staff to Harvey Norman for sales training. Last year need…ed oven, dishwasher & microwave, and took business to HN because couldn't raise staff in GG to confirm order ... I have witnessed them ignoring ringing phones. which was obviously done to my call. Last week the young sales girl was having a private mobile conversation while I was looking for an oven; this weekend I learned it was actually the manager talking on the phone while were were looking for a dishwasher, and she didn't bother to suggest that the two staff with her might have served us ... three people tackling a matter that was far more important than making my sale. Seeing the adverse reviews here, the GG's business model is a very poor one.

Mister Minit
LOUSY SHOE DYEHaving colour changed more pairs of shoes than I can recall, I can't believe how useless is the Mr Minit product .... the only one being sold at its counters, and all I could find at a retail outlet. …The salesman warned that even after 3 coats, the colour (navy) might streak! It didn't, but it had the appearance of shiny plastic, and in only a few days has rubbed and peeled off like plastic. The surface in the sun made an expensive pair of leather shoes look cheap. Fortunately stripper has removed most of it and I will now order online one of the better known quality brands.

Ashtons Removals
Verified ABSOLUTELY 5 STAR SERVICEFrom the office staff who kept in touch prior to moving day, through to the movers & shakers, our relocation was professional and seamless. We opted to have all the wrapping and packing done, plus a …week in storage between properties, and everything arrived in the same condition it was collected. The men on the truck couldn't have been more pleasant and helpful in what is such a tough job ... they are credit to the company. For a trouble free move, I do not think Ashtons can be beaten.

Bosch Serie 8 WAW28460AU
A GREAT CHOICEI have been using the machine for five months and so far am extremely pleased with it. There are a lot of cycle options (each offering choices in water temperature and spin), but no doubt we all quick…ly work out the few most applicable to our own use, and occasionally be pleased to have one that is more specialised. The dial is easy to navigate, the spinner really efficient, and I appreciate that what little water remaining in the rubber seal is easily removed with a sponge.
Noise : Water agitating in the drum could be considered loud in an open area.
One reviewer expressed surprise at how little water the machine uses. This is one of the benefits of a front-end loader, and it follows that soap should also be reduced.
We replaced a 15 year old machine, so naturally there is a marked difference in a new one, but this Bosch feels solid, and one I feel should do its job for many years.
