unsafe.
Within 2 weeks tools are not working and unsafe.
I contacted Total tools store and they told they can only repair/replace the item; there is NO refund policy.
The business is taking away consumer basic rights to reject faulty, unsafe products and get the refund. Staff are rude and made racial comments also.
I will be reporting to Victorian Consumer Affairs Victoria and ACC .
Thanks,

Not helpful staff – Thought staff were not helpful Asked if that what was the best price they could do was told the tickeded price was it . The same article was $20 dollars cheaper at Sydney tools but that would mean another u turn and stuffing around . Will buy from Sydney tools up the road next time Show details
no notification of item arriving – I have found that when I have ordered a tool from total tools I dont get a call when item arrives. When they first opened service was better and call where made.
Saber drill press – Bought one of rheir Saber drill pressws for work. What a piece of rubbish. The chuck is so oit of alignment you cannot drill a round hole. Complainwd and thwy replaced the whole drill top. Same thing. Terrible wobble in the drill. Poorly machined piece of equipment. Complained again and got a bad attitude from them. Don't buy Saber, made in China.
Hi Rick, Thanks for your feedback. We'll pass this on to Saber.

Needed deep 36mm impact socket urgently – Rang Carrum-downs store, and inquired, availability of tool and price. Was able to purchase 36mm deep impact socket, very pleased with Total Tools, customer service and stock of items, although I was quoted $36-00 and item actually cost me, $38-00. A small discrepancy in price. This is why, I have only rated my experience with Total Tools, 4 stars and not 5. Your's sincerely, Tim Harris. Show details
