NIGHTMARE – Never leave bad reviews but I brought a Saber generator which broke a couple days in. I returned it to get fixed and informed the front counter that I needed it fixed urgently. Rang a week later to see what was happening and they forgot to send it to the repair shop. When I got it back a couple days later it broke again. A repair team came out to… Read more

site and fixed it only for it to break again later that day. It's been a nightmare to return. I was told I'd have to wait for the repair team to send in notes. Over a week later I went in & the guys at the shop told me the repair teams note said the generator wasn't powerful enough to run my unit which was rubbish because the repair man told me on site the generator was nearly 6 times more powerful than I needed plus I could run my unit on eco mode and petrol would hardly move after using the generator for over 4 hours so could easily take the power. The guy on the phone assured me if I brought it back they'd do me a good deal on one of there other generators and that turned out to be a lie. I just had to pay the difference for the new machine. Lost a massive contract because of the stuff around. Will never be shopping at a Total Tools again!

Awesome service and product knowledge! – Purchased a 25 bit Cobalt Drill set by P&N with "bonus" countersink attachment from Thebarton TOTAL TOOLS store. As usual the customer service was excellent. The shop assistant put on hold their last drill bit set until I picked it up from them. The drill bit set normally sells for $125.00 so I was pleased to purchase for only $99.00 with bonus… Read more

16.5 mm HSS countersink. The set is made in China, but don't let that fool you, as P&N have a very good reputation for drill bits and cutting tools. The set comes packaged in a plastic index box that presents well, while protecting all the drill bits and countersink from any possible damage. I'm extremely happy with my purchase!

TIG Welder; Perfect for me! – I needed a TIG welder for thin aluminium. The guys took me through the options available. It took me ages to think everything over and nut out exactly what I needed. Shane was unbelievably patient and helped me through the whole thing. Absolutely happy with the outcome and my new welder. Show details

Made easy – Ordered on-line, didn't burn rubber getting there, but it was all sorted & ready to go. While there I asked for their advice on circular saws for a mate who never listens to me. I passed it on later & it's on his must-have list.  Show details

Great service - Good prices & Great products – Thank you to the staff member who served me on 14/11/20 On walking into the store I was within minutes asked if I needed some assistance. The gentleman who served me took great interest in speaking to me about my specific needs and after 1/2 of quality service and recommendations I purchased the products I was after and very happy.

Bad advice, accessory doesn’t fit – Guy told the short nozzle would fit the blower, it does, but doesn’t stay in as doesn’t have the side lugs. Gotta go back to the store and swap or return it for a $9 part.....

Somewhat disappointed – I purchased the good products from sydneytools and then went to buy it. Although sydneytools can be mailed for free, I had the experience of mailing the purchase in their store before, which was not very pleasant, so I wanted to buy it in the physical store this time. It’s $1633, but if I buy it at sydneytools, I can get a $200 gift card as a… Read more

boxingday reward, but it’s not here. I only got two extra batteries. I believe I can get two extra batteries if I buy them at any other store, because they are given by makita. This time I bought at Total Tools, I just felt that it was a very ordinary shopping, and there was no surprise, and there was one tool I wanted to buy, which was not in the store. He gave me another different model, but I didn’t want which one. Yes, the clerk told me that if I don’t want it, I won’t get the extra battery. And if I buy from sydneytools this time, I can get two extra batteries, a gift worth $79, and a gift card of about $200, and all the tools I want, but I’m in total tools, I Only got two extra batteries and had to buy a tool that I didn't want.

Worst customer service from manager – Living 130km away I called to discuss laser detectors which they were no help with what so ever. So forced to reaserch them and finding the one I needed, the website said they were in stock so I travelled 1.5 hours to the store to find they were not. The staff were not helpful and knew nothing about the detectors and sold me a more expensive… Read more

incompatable unit which I found had been opened and used already. So now delayed in doing my job loosing money and time, the manager could not care less and his additude was appalling blaming everything on me from the start, instead of simply solving the issue. Some of the worst service I have ever received, they were not professional or knowledgeable like they advertise. Dont waist your time and go elsewhere

Great Service – Went to the Thebarton store to grab a new combo kit. Scott helped me out swapping out some skins to make sure I got the tools I’d actually use. Great service and talked through some of the pro’s/con’s on brushless vs brushed to get a good balance between longevity and price. Have already been a return customer and would recommend the team there. Show details

Fantastic Service – Out of chance I popped in to the Thebarton store to look at prices on some 5 Piece 18volt brushless tools. I was dead set on buying a specific brand and specific kit. However, after some great advice from Scott Charman at the Thebarton store he pointed out some of the tools that were in the kit would probably not be used, he then showed me a few… Read more

other options which all made better sense. I walked out of there feeling confident in which kit I was going to purchase. Later that same day I returned to the Thebarton store to make the purchase and a few other essentials . Big thanks to Scott and the team at Thebarton.
