I spoke to the office to query a TLB Hammer to hire for 2 days ( 18 hours) . Once i received the quote, i questioned a few T&C's and was assured of the best of service. I then alerted the person of the poor reviews, but was assured i will get the best of service after i pay the invoice in full. I took their word for it, but was let down from the day the TLB was to be delivered. I waited a week, promise after promise, only to be told they will rather issue a refund. One small amount after another, and since july 2025 , there is a balance unpaid.
They promised to send me a TLB ******, and even though i paid in full , they never delivered. Anthony paid back some monies over time, but after 3 months still owe me approximately R3000. They do not trade ethically, and by not repaying my money in full,after 4 months, means they stole it?
1 star is too much for these guys. I spoke with Anthony on the dates I require a TLB ******, and he confirmed he will have it for me. I proceeded paying their invoice in full. On the day the TLB was to arrive, nothing came and story after story, and eventually after a few days I gave an asked for a refund. I got paid back about 60% on the day, then a small chunk after about a week, and another week goes by and and still waiting for me balance. DO NOT trust this company, they operate like *****sters.
The second time I was interested in buying the 3rd watch from them, they provided great service. The watches I wanted to view were as described by them online. So I knew the condition of the watches upon inspection. They were not up to my standard. I then found another watch on their website and made a 4th appointment to view, but only this time, I paid a deposit for them to reserve the watch for me. They did notify me the watch was at their CT branch and will be sent over to Pretoria for me to inspect. Watch arrived after a few days and once notified, I made appointment on the same day to collect it. Inspected it, paid and out in 5 minutes. They are definitely a reputable company and sell pre-owned watches at great prices. The service is amazing.
I was very reluctant on buying from any online store, not knowing what I'll get myself into. The communication with Elite Watches was very efficient. Sometimes that also can be red flags but when I asked to make an appointment and the address provided, I immediately knew I was dealing with a legit business. I knew I was going there to buy up to 3 watches and they were ready for me. It was in the condition as described, and I left a happy customer. ( 1 day post sale) Being a dummy in watches, I had one or two questions which was immediately answered via a telephone call. I don't think you can ever find a more reputable company, after reading my above experience.

The price seemed too good to be true but I took the risk and i can tell you this is a very professional company. The customer service is also really good , answered all my emails efficiently and were really helpful. Delivery was also done like pro's.
Bought a fridge and freezer from HIRSCHs end 2016, and about 3 weeks back the fridge doesn’t remain cool even at 1 degree. They appoint Mastercare to service the fridge, and the tech man tells me the gas has leaked. My old 10 year old donkey Samsung fridge hasn’t had a leak , and I had an even older Whirlpool (that this SMEG replaced for to energy efficiency) , that was working fine for over 10 years. Little over a week after a R1000 regas , and the fridge doesn’t work again, sitting at 1 degree and not even cool, forget cold. SMEG is rubbish , I wouldn’t recommend anyone buying this brand. Better off with a local Hisense brand. I await to see what SMEG SA does now after this persistent problem.
I cannot believe I how poor quality and pathetic Samsung really is. I was under the impression that Samsung is so huge, they will offer top quality products and amazing service. I purchased a Samsung Washing Machine ( WF1124) and the machine door rubber used to tear at least once every 6 months. During the warranty period this was fine. But once the warranty was up, I had to fork out a lot of money for the replacement. Insult to inury, they sometimes don't have stock and I have to wait up to 6 weeks. After 3 years of ownership, I see a 3E motor error, and ok no problem, theres a 10 year warranty on the motor. GUESS WHAT ! ? There is no Repair Centre to come and fix. So I have to either send it some the Repair Centre myself or Samsung offers to replace my machine, and I must pay in the difference. To add to this, I am waiting almost 2 weeks for them to resolve the problem. LG is far better than Samsung, and of course Siemens and the other german brands should be first choice.
<p>I had installed a 300L solar geyser for my son's room last year (around September i think ) , and had issues from day one where the water was not getting hot at all with Solar. The fortunate thing is i do not have an electric point to provide to this geyser so i can actually see how good this geyer really is. So after experiencing these problems, they managed to sort it out and i was getting hot water.</p> <p> </p> <p>I now decide to install a 150L for my domestics and for my one kitchen tap where we wash hands. I was told this 150L can service up to 4 people with hot water. It is almost a week since installation and my domestics did not get a taste of hot water, even though there is electricity provided to this geyeser. </p> <p> </p> <p>Since the weather is now getting cold , my son also tells me he only gets luke warm water in the mornings. So this is evident that Afrilanga geysers are poorly insulated and doesnt allow for the water to stay hot.</p> <p> </p> <p>My 150L is not serving as a solar geyser at all. I have a Solar Hart that is running off the grid for 3 years and even at 300L capacity, gives me boiling water, with 3 girls using the shower in 2 seperate bathrooms.</p> <p> </p> <p>I regret trying to save money , when all i did was waste it buying an inferior product. </p>
