In the beginning of July 2005 we bought a lounch suite from Rochester Furnishers in Strubensvalley Roodepoort. Their policy is 30% deposit and then they order the furniture to be delivered within 8-10 weeks. When I phones to follow up I was told that our lounch suite already arrived on the 24 August but it had a tear in the one seat and that they have send it to the dealer in Johannesburg to be fixed. When I phone 3 days before my set was suppose to be delivered I was told that the set is still in the warehouse with the tear and that the manufacturer will collect it only tommorrow and that I will have to wait another 2 weeks if I am lucky! read full review »

Channel Nine aired tonight at about 6.30 a disgraceful ad for Dulux that featured the word" Hallelujah". This is a gross breech of community values particularly for relious people but also a pollution of a word with strong religious connotation for the majority.. My hope is that you will help get it off air promptly. I have sent my complaint to Dulux directly. read full review »

I purchased 2 sets of Hampton Bay solar landscaping lights for a gift. The stakes that go in the ground were plastic and after being in the ground a month or so the starting breaking off and as of now 6 months after purchase they have all broken off.

I am very disappointed since I thought Hampton Bay was a top of the line company. I will never buy Hampton Bay again since they did not even offer any help. read full review »

I purchased A Black & Decker vacuum bagger (model VS 2000) new from WalMart, and it NEVER worked properly. The Blacj & Decker replaced another bagger I had that was made in France, and which worked perfectly, but for which bags were no longer available. The point is that I am familiar with how vacuum baggers are supposed to work, and the B&D never performed as advertised. My second mistake (the first being the purchase of a Black and Decker product) was my continued attempts to make this piece of garbage work until the one year... read full review »

I have a new 2006 Toyota Corolla. It "clicks" and jerks when shifting from Park to Reverse or Drive to Reverse. The shifter sticks at times when shifting and the car sways when driving. I have had the car to Sierra Toyota in Lancaster five times with no success. Because I am a woman they don't take me seriously. The same is true with the Toyota Corporation. Actually, I get lies from my case worker at Toyota Corp. It seems to me that Toyota's reputation is going downhill fast from my experiences and that of others. read full review »

I bought this Exersaucer recently, July 8, 2006. I put it all together with no problem. I put the batteries in the appropriate slots. However, the Toy Bar does not work. I put brand new batteries in it, and still does not work. I do not want to have to take the entire exersaucer back to the Babies R Us, as I already made a second trip because the first one I bought was damaged, and the store is very far from where I live. Can I ship this one part back to you and get a replacement part at no cost to me? Sincerely, Arthur read full review »

I received my initial service to my vehicle on Nov. 27, 2005. An anti freeze leak turned into a head gasket replacement that lasted 9 days. My car has bucked since this repair and it still does. I have since had everything from belts to a catalitic converter replacement. The car still bucks at 75. Since it is above the speed limit they are not responsible. This service department has lied in order to get away with an error that they caused. My car has never been the same and it never will. DON'T GET SERVICE AT BREWSTER SUBARU! read full review »
