1 David P.  · Purchased killarnee lamb for1/4 chops - 6 pack - top 3 chops were good bottom 3 chops were all bone & fat - very disappointing on
5 Peter I.  · gteat value products and would shp ever day when open
1 Kez  · Aldi have replaced 6 pack No Sugar coke with their own brand Regal. It's awful. Aldi build a brand then dump it and replace with their own. I am over this
1 maddog  · Bought scotch fillet steak. Mainly gristle and tough as nails! Do yourself a huge favour, buy meat at your local butcher!
3 DEBBIE  · Usually i'm happy with Aldi products but they have changed their sausages.They look,cook and taste terrible.Even my dog Brandi wasn't happy
4 coombeeric  · I think Aldi should offer some assistance in their stores with heavier items, specifically with older customers.

aldi sliced canned beetroot Very low quality. Hard and undercooked. Very acidy/ sour. You buy a branded one at Woolworth or Coles for maybe 20c more but get a bezter quality and taste. Aldi Australia is failing their customers more and more in deliver very low quality. Show details

I bought 3 children's long sleeve cotton tops. The child is an average size and currently wearing size 2 and sometimes size 3. The body of the tops purchased is too shot and the sleeves, though a bit long, can be folded back. Disappointing and unuseable. Show details

I always buy the International cuisine beef lasagna for my family as a cheap dinner night option. Safe to say NEVER AGAIN!!!! Thoroughly disgusted, No white sauce or cheese next no mince in it and when I pulled it out of the microwave is was like runny liquid swooshing around on on three layer of pasta sheets. Not to mention had a off odour to it. I am getting sick of these businesses cutting corners!!! Putting people at risk!!! Show details

Congratulations Aldi. I bought your retro desk fan this week. The fan works well and I congratulate you for having 100% recyclable packaging. No plastic or styrofoam in sight. Show details

Remano Pasta – I bought 2 bags of Remano Large Shell Pasta from my local Aldi Store. I bought them on the Friday and opened them on Sunday to cook both bags. Both bags contained some sort of inserts which I then through both bags in the bin. I emailed Aldi straight away and to date I haven't heard anything from anybody with in Aldi. Product very disappointing and Customer Service abysmal Show details

I usually shop in the physical ALDI store and always have good experiences there, so I decided to try an online delivery. This time, though, the strawberries arrived with visible mold on several pieces. I understand fresh produce can be difficult to manage, but it seems this pack may have been stored or packed a bit too long before delivery. I’m… Read more

sharing this feedback so the team can improve quality checks, because the rest of my order was perfectly fine. I appreciate the service and hope this helps prevent similar issues for other customers.

I bought Huxley-branded guitar strings in a clearly marked 3-pack. Turns out the packs only contained 1 set of guitar strings. It was not a one-off packaging 'mistake' as I bought 4 packs and they were all the same.

Bought a bulk pack of jindurra station mince, was appalled when cooking the amount of liquid and oil that came out of it was actually revolting, Woolworths bulk mince is better definitely won't be buying meat again from Aldi. Show details

Do not buy their sugar coated cashew nuts. It coated with too much sugar and not much taste of the nut. The sugar is too much, feel like I am eating sugar only. Would rather pay more buying nuts from Coles or woolworths. This is an absolutely garbage food. Show details

Purchased the Massam Curry Chicken. Looked good on opening. Checked no or min chilli. Yep all good. Cooked slowly today for lunch and hit with massive amounts of pepper and must be ground chilli flakes. Second attempt. Definitely no more. No indian restaurant cook like this. The chef must be a smoker or damaged taste buds from bad diet or… Read more

drink! Killed all the goodness in the ingredients. Never again. Tip... Massam always cooked with onion.. for gorgeous taste. None in mine!

Barissimo coffee pods, in my opinion are terrible, and honestly, one of the worst tasting coffee brands I've ever experienced when it comes to pod style capsules. It smells burnt, it tastes bitter like you're drinking something that's been sitting on brew for days, like those coffee drip machines the US like to drink. Won't be buying these again! Show details

Adventureridge Gazebos from Aldi. 2 years ago we bought the deluxe Adventureridge Gazebo from Aldi. It works great so last year when we saw them for sale again we grabbed another. Slight problem = even though both were marketed as the deluxe model they are not the same. The newer deluxe gazebo has no antipooling frame. No velcro strap securing.… Read more

And it folded in very light rain. Absolute rubbish product. And I'm not sure what misleading conduct is these days but selling the same branded product as the same model when they are not the same, must come close. Photos attached showing the older "good" deluxe gazebo and the newer cr#p one (avoid at all costs).

I went to Aldi because it really is a great place to shop. Today I went because a friend told us that their Taramosalata was some of the best store bought ( versus homemade) he had ever had. And he is right and it was great! But 2 other things just blew my mind! The first was the Emporium Selection Smooth Blue Vein Cheese. It is seriously one of… Read more

the MOST DELICIOUS blue cheeses I have ever eaten and I eat A LOT of blue cheese!! Just super delicious! The other is the Westacre Vintage Cheese 500 g block at $7...it is literally half price of the 250 g block of Cracker Barrel...HALF PRICE!. Now mind I haven't tried it yet but I can't believe it could be so bad as to be worth half the price! Aldi you have an amazing deal right there! Now I know I will not buy cheese anywhere else!

Not happy that we buy fresh produce and within a couple of days when you cut them or open them, they are full of mould or rotten! Where is the saving in that? The photo below is just one example but we get lots of these nasty surprises! Show details

I wanted to return a faulty automatic fly sprayer to top ryde shop earlier today. I explained to the supervisor that the item was faulty and just wanted to exchange for another, he asked for the receipt which I could not supply he said do I remember… Read more

whichday I purchased the item and again I could not remember I was then advised I could not exchange the item unles I culd supply the 2 requests he put forward. I tried to show him the faulty item however he was not interested. I thought for the sake of customer service, $15.00 and a faulty item I should been allow to have a replacement. Certainly blows to pieces what adldi say on google ie customer satisfaction is what they aim for

Aldi apples when bitten half and just left... They do not go soft and brown in 5 or 10 minutes, they do not start decomposing as none of the moulds, fungi or bacteria are able to digest them, and in fact they NEVER rot. You have to ask yourself, if… Read more

the Aldi Apples - a genetically engineered product are so unnaturally super sweet with so much frutose in them, I'd consider them to be unhealthy, and that that scourge of food spoilage, Black Mould - that grows on everything - even that cannot survive on Aldi Apples.

I have had to ask myself, "If nothing in nature can eat these apples, then why am I eating them?"

I found a very good video on them, and all genetic engineering involved with these apples.

Aldi sells FOOD with Bio-Engineered Ingredients https://www.mgtow.tv/v/pEtLND

If the fruit will not decompose and rot - and even black mold will not grow on it - why are you eating it?

On Sunday 22nd of February we were doing our shopping in Warriewood Aldi store. There were many customers in long ques at self service registers and on staffed registers. I noticed that two registers were literaly locked. When I asked to open those… Read more

two I was told that they are banned to open the on Sunday mornings. I never heard more stupid company policy. How company which makes huge profits in this country can explain and justify this policy and also why Aldy machines are not taking cash like at Coles and Woolworths? How Aldi justify 0.5% surgargevon on Visa cards? I see it as another money grab exercise. Aldi is understaffed (I heard it many times from employers) and the pushing customers to use self service where they charge them extra for inconvenience.

 Follow-up  · Nothing changed for good. Now we are facing some products missing for weeks. I understand current transport problems but I would expect some notice in place of missing product with expected date when product will be back.

Love ALDI, I always love going in and looking at the special buys to see new interesting things, and ive always got stuff from there and its been great, I got a whipper snipper from there and its excellent, also I usually buy my meat there and it tastes awesome, its pretty lean, which compared to coles and woolworths has more fat than meat, Ive… Read more

always loved ALDI in general and I never walk out empty handed from there, I dont understand why people hate on it so much whenever they once get a product that doesnt fit them and is not designed for what they want. All of my ALDI products have always been in excellent quality, I once had to return something because I got the wrong product and they were excellent with the return, like they are in general, and pricing is the best there at ALDI.

Well I went to Aldi to go shopping after visiting Aldis with my daughter and I have to say, the products are better value and quality. I purchased Fruit, dairy, Chocolate Chips Biscuits, meat at a very cost effective price, thank you Aldis. Will I return again? on my way this Friday with my daughter to help her with her shopping. Her Birthday is… Read more

coming up and I will buy her a $200 voucher as I know she will love it, as must as she loves shopping as Aldis.

An amazing place to shop, I average $100 per week shopping for two people in groceries I used to shop exclusively in Woolworths but the Brad Banducci events turned me off. I consider that the Aldi model is more about delivering value to customers rather than executives incomes and shareholder profits at any expense. Just little things matter like… Read more

buying similar to Cornetto Ice Creams (on half price special at $6 elsewhere) for $3.39 a box of four, made in Australia and the same weight per ice cream, everyday for the same price. Or 1kg Block Tasty Cheese for $8.99 everyday when others on special are $13.99 They have more to offer Australians than most realise, because they concentrate on the grocery business, not virtue signalling and deception.

Don’t buy the Bauhn TV’s from Aldi. They are cheap cr#p and if the last more than 1 month past warranty period (mine lasted 3months past warranty period) they don’t honour the warranty. In short you are buying a tv for a year. Show details

Since finding Aldi Edgecliff 2 years ago, I have enjoyed popping in except today!

Sydney, and reunited it with its Owner, who can't weight bare on both legs, with a walking stick, sense of humour, 2 medium size cases, 1 Aldi and 1 Big W bag, I was in Aldi for just 10 minutes, with a mission to purchase Banana Bread & a couple of Aldi Bags!!

I sensed I was being followed by Security and sure enough at Self Serve Checkout after I had scanned my handful of items, was accosted by a rude Asian woman, I had never seen their before, demanding I open my Aldi bag...I asked what are you looking for?She smiled refused and then said I am just doing my job. I said I know, but you must have a suspicion to be looking in my Aldi bag and you are not asking others? She still refused to say, so I opened it, not wanting to stand further on my excruciatingly painful legs; she took a glance and gave me the okay to leave!

After leaving a security woman in plain clothes blocked my path out... I had to ask her to move aside adding: "Or are you in the habit of blocking customers exit as you are mine!" She then moved turned & followed me outside the Aldi Edgecliff store, taking photos of me with her mobile and observing me sit down at a table, and sorting through a bag while drinking Oak Chocolate!

What an Extraordinarily Traumatic, Outrageous, Reprehensible Aldi Shopping Experience and Breathtaking Invasion Of Human Rights & Privacy Outside Store!

Time to get rid of some staff!

Today, i.e. Tuesday, 7/04/26 we went to Aldi store in Thornleigh on Pennant Hills road. There was a homeless man and his dog sitting near the entry door from the underground car park. After finishing shopping, me and my wife were returning to our car. We did not give any money to the homeless man. As soon as we went past the man, he started… Read more

abusing us and let his dog on us. The dog very aggressively tried to attack us, but I put the shopping trolley between me and the dog, it retreated after barking for some time with continuous encouragement from its owner. The man continued to abuse and make obscene gestures. When I went back to return the shopping trolley which is near the entry, the man entered the car park again from where he was sitting and let his dog on me again. I tried to contact Aldi, but there is no contactable human being as they provide only online links etc. for feedback on their products and services. Hence, I have lodged a complaint with police regarding this. I am writing this review to attract appropriate attention from Aldi store to prevent such experience and protect other customers in the future.
