5 AlanFred52  · Great service from KMart. Prompt delivery and well packaged in cardboard boxes.
1 Monica M.  · They send stuff through a delivery company that is unreliable. Now I’m stuck without my order and having to argue to get it. Not cool.
1 Digby S.  · Absolutely horrible experience ordering online. Ordered on Thursday a week ago still has not arrived. Cannot cancel order.
4 Joseph  · you buy what you get!. Been happy with what I have purchased over the years and the service from the Stafford and Chermisde Brisbane team.
2 never again  · Elastic in anko pants is very very poor, it WILL fail within a year, and you will be throwing them out. Material is fine, elastic is useless. . Planet poluters
1 Anne at Sienna  · They claim they ship things with 'GoPeople' but they never arrive and their support is no support at all. Thieves with a website.

Incident: Saturday, 30th May 2026, approx. 7:50 PM I do not recommend Kmart and especially the disgusting Bankstown store! They don’t follow safety protocols and Breach of Australian Consumer Law & Appalling Customer Service At approximately 7:50 PM on Saturday, 30th May, I approached the customer service desk to return a faulty electrical… Read more

shaving kit. I was not greeted; instead, a male staff member (of Asian descent) yelled out, "We are closed." In a hurry to go home, When I pointed out that the store had 10 minutes until closing, and just need to return a small item he became incredibly difficult and unhelpful. Incorrect Claim 1 (60-Day Policy): He initially refused the return, claiming it was past 60 days. I provided the receipt showing it was exactly 60 days. More importantly, as this was a faulty product, Kmart’s store return policy does not override my statutory rights under the ACL.

Incorrect Claim 2 (Card Change): He then claimed he could not process a refund because my bank card had changed/replaced. Working in the banking sector myself, I informed him that the funds would route correctly to the account regardless.

The Voucher Deception: He then insisted on issuing a voucher. Assuming this was a standard gift voucher I could use freely, I accepted it so I could purchase a replacement. Only after leaving did I realize he had issued an Exchange Voucher. This voucher can only be used in-store for the exact same product—which your store did not have in stock, nor did two other local Kmart stores. Furthermore, when I attempted to use it online where the item was available, the system I could not use the voucher as it is valid for in-store use only.

Breach of Consumer Law & Store Standards: To make matters worse, the presentation of the Bankstown store was shambolic, with stock strewn all over the floor and staff who clearly did not want to assist. This is not a matter of the money; it is a matter of principle. Your staff member showed a complete lack of training regarding major faults and consumer guarantees under Australian law. A store cannot restrict a customer to an "in-store exchange only" for a product that is inherently faulty and unavailable especially when a receipt was present as well.

Now waiting for my bank, fair trading and the ACCC to look in to it before taking this to NCAT

I order a gift for my grandson on May 17th, I tracked my order on May 22nd and it appears to be delivered on May 20th. I didn’t received, and I have cameras at home which are continuously recording. Since then I have been writing on the online chat and they have only answered what I already know: that the tracking says it was delivered on the… Read more

20th. I contacted directly the courier (Kmart job) and we discovered it was delivered to another address and they gave me proof of that. I told that to Kmart team, and still today (03-06), I don’t have an answer from them.

I posted a review only to be sent a link to contact us. I have previously done this four times, therefore no point going through the process again. Still no favourable outcome.

Bought this $59 ANKO Air Fryer from Kmart and broke down just couple of months of slight use. What a waste of money! Updated. Found my receipt and managed to return and exchange with another model. The return was smooth process. Will see how the replacement goes. Show details ·  1

I am very satisfied with the Artiss Standing Desk (120CM White). For a price of $69.95, the material quality and functionality are impressive. ​The Highlights: ​Precision Engineering: The screw holes were drilled with great accuracy. Unlike some cheaper products where misaligned holes make assembly nearly impossible, this desk was very easy to… Read more ·  1

put together. ​Material Quality: The overall build feels sturdy and the white finish looks great in my room.

​Minor Issue: The only downside was a small chip/dent on the corner of the monitor shelf (visible in the attached photos). It likely occurred during shipping or packaging.

​Final Verdict: Despite that one cosmetic flaw on the edge, the quality of the Artiss brand and the ease of assembly make this an excellent budget-friendly choice. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an affordable workstation.

I purchased the Kahlia L.E.D Dome on sale. I was excited to use it but when it arrived I noticed that the box had previously been opened and resealed. So someone had possibly already returned it. Immediately I noticed a terrible chemical smell. When I inspected the product I saw smoke coming out ! I've attached video to show others. This is not a… Read more

safe item ! And I cannot believe that I was sold a faulty product.

I tried chatting with their "live agents" to expedite the report about the safety issue. This person immediately disconnected the chat after telling me to take this bulky faulty item into a store. I'm disgusted with the lack of support regarding a dangerous item.

I've lodged a complaint and am waiting for a refund.

Update: Kmart customer service offered a 30% refund for "minor faults. Apparently a device spewing smoke and catching fire when turned on is "minor". I'm disgusted and will be Lodging a complaint against the matter with Consumer Affairs.

Calling the Kmart 1800 number I was eventually transferred to their " complaints line" ... This person interrogated me as though I was a fraud. Regardless of the videos and images provided which document the faulty item. These people seem to think we are all criminals. But who is the real criminal here? I was sold a used faulty item that spews smoke. I was told to keep using the burning faulty item.

I now have to travel for 45 minutes with the bulky item to my nearest store. No doubt that they will refuse a refund.

And their "compliance" staff member was SO rude. Accusatory and disrespectful - when I am the person inconvenienced by buying a faulty item. Truly disgraceful treatment

Will be reporting everything to Consumer Affairs.

But no, they dont have the courtesy to just even knock and you tell me it’s my fault because I’ve authorized it to be left!

They dont even care that the courier they used dont even knock on the door or notify their customers that item has been delivered. Terrible service!

I was sent an order with products covered in an unknown brown substance. I am immune compromised and very medically fragile so I closed the box and contacted customer service.

it’s dried bodily fluids or chemicals or rancid food or whatever else it could be, they have done nothing and after telling me someone would contact me very soon that’s changed to days and then tomorrow and in the mean time nothing is being done at all to remedy this in a reasonable timeframe given the unusual dangers of this situation for me personally. I’ve also been asked to open the contaminated boxes and check if the items are damaged and I’ve obviously refused and then I requested a contract the second time that would hold them liable for any results of doing so. They didn’t want to do that and then claimed they never told me to open the box but how else would I check for damage exactly?? I don’t have Xray vision. I’ve refused to do more than close and seal the box after taking the initial photo as it smelt weird and it was just gross,I was not touching it and this is not at all acceptable. I just want the items replaced with clean ones but it seems that any assistance is unlikely.

Scilily S fold sheers 240w 250L. We used 6 curtains and 4 and 1/3 rods to achieve a fuller wave look. Adding an additional curtain meant purchasing a spare rod as the curtain hooks come with the rod not the curtain- so in total we purchased 6 rods and 6 curtains. It would be less wasteful if the hooks came with the actual curtain. Material is a… Read more ·  1

lightweight cool white fabric and filters light well for some subtle privacy and a whimsical look. They were a little tricky to sew to required length as the fabric is fairly fine- I would probably use iron hemming tape in future as it would likey be easier. Straight out of packaging the curtains varried by a few centimetres in lengths - which may still require adjustments.

Rails can be wall or ceiling mounted- we choose ceiling. I adjusted the seperation of the waves on the track to sit uniformly on the two windows. If you were using these on doors they would likey need constantly fixing to keep the uniform look. Unless you don't mind different variation waves and want more practicality and privacy than 'perfect' esthetic. You can carry over the same curtain around the corner even though there is no corner rail piece- just butt the rail up to one another and continue hooking the curtain on next rail.

All up cost was $294 to cover 5.8mt span - easily saving a few thousand from professionally tailored. Overall we're really happy with our purchase, and would consider buying again for future window coverings.

A while ago, I worked very hard and saved money to buy this vacuum from Kmart, but I am still upset about this purchase. Every time I remember that day, I regret buying it. This vacuum is truly very poor in quality. Its suction power is weak, and when you hold it in your hand, it feels like a cheap hollow plastic toy rather than a reliable… Read more

product for daily use.

In my opinion, such a product should not be sold to people. The manufacturer should be ashamed of producing and selling something like this. It feels more like a toy for children than a real vacuum cleaner.

It is really disappointing, and I would never recommend buying it.

I purchased the spot cleaner from Kmart a few months ago, in case of accidents and decided to clean the hall rug. I used Rug Doctor as the no foam cleaner and the both did a great job as can be seen by the one clean strip and the 3/4 still needing a clean. It's not meant for large areas, and was backbreaking being bent over, but I am happy with the performance. Show reply

I ordered 4 x 2-packs bras on click-and-collect, and apart from taking 22 hours to have my order ready even though all the items were in stock, Kmart packed a dirty bra in my order. And cancelled one other 2-pack bra. I can live with this delay and one cancellation, but how on Earth you go and pack this dirty bra in my order?! Looks like it’s been dragged on the floor! How do you deliver that to your valued customer?!

K-Mart store and told them if our situation and was told " No problem just bring them back" I said we are looking at a 2 hour round trip will I be reimbursed for my fuel( Now $2 56 a litre) and was told " No we don't do that" I asked to speak to the manager and was told "No manager today [Name Removed] is off". The next day I put petrol in the car and reluctantly drove back to the Lakelands store as I had no other choice, I need to security tag to be removed so as I could wear the pants and it's not my fault their system failed. Upon arrival I again asked for the manager and was told " No manager is here today". I emailed head office hoping for a sympathetic and common sense reply and now 15 days later I haven't even received an acknowledgement of my email.

Don’t buy something for a gift at Kmart. If it doesn’t fit the person they can’t change it even for a different size unless they ask you for the docket. Asking for the docket from someone who gave you something is embarrassing. Your money will be wasted. Show details

I placed as order for an item that I intended to click and collect from my local K-Mart. I had progressed to the payment stage, entered my details and clicked process payment. After a few moments, I recevied a message saying there had been an error.… Read more

The message disappeared and I was returned to the add payment details step, however the payment was processed from my bank account. I contacted K-Mart who requested evidence of the payment, then said there was nothing they can do. From their end, the order hadn't been finalised so couldn't be refunded and I will just need to wait; at some point my money should be returned to my account. They gave a timeframe of 3 - 5 days. In the mean time I was welcomed to try placing the order again or shopping directly at the store. How does major retailer have such at terrible online ordering system and such indifferent customer service.

 Follow-up  · Update - my funds were returned and I was able to access them after about 48hrs. I didn't try placing another click and collect order with K-Mart but rather ordered a similar item from another retailer.

way to cancel for refund once ordered. Hopeless and concerning being a customer and shareholder to find this pathetic shopping experience.

 Follow-up  · Once ordered and paid there does not seem to be an avenue to address issues like delayed order or to cancel order. The store said my option was to buy the same product instore then return my order when it arrived for refund. It makes no sense I guess if the store had the product on the shelf in the first place it would have been prepared ready for pick up. No Kmart were less than helpful.
