If you're reading this review while considering Schmidhauser for renovations or electrical, do yourself a favour and look elsewhere. A truly simple bathroom renovation which they said will take 2 weeks, turned into a 6 week nightmare for myself and my family. Primarily due to delays and shoddy work on Schmidhauser's part. I've read several "rave reviews" about this company, but I must have got the "Friday afternoon" team on my job. I do not recommend Schmidhauser. EDIT: Schmidhauser delete negative reviews from HelloPeter, ergo their seemingly high overall rating. View Google Reviews to read all complaints for an accurate picture of their work and service.
Blake Brothers in Edgemead is an unprofessional, poor quality company. Owner Andrew Blake made promises that were never kept, and the result of their painting and waterproofing work is damp walls with bubbling paint, after paying tens of thousands of rands. I do not recommend using this company. I have since heard firsthand accounts of other horror stories from home owners who made the mistake of using Blake Brothers for painting, waterproofing, damp proofing and other construction work.

The service at Southern Sun Marine in PE is atrocious. I've been trying to book rooms for my family for 2 days. 5 phone calls later and still nobody has been able to help me. I've tried calling the hotel manager twice today. Once this morning and was asked to leave a message which I did. And now again this afternoon and was told the hotel manager has left for the weekend. I can see that the poor service from this hotel starts with the manager. Now, I will take my money to Radisson Blu instead.

We purchased a "Martha Stewart" Christmas tree from Takealot. The box arrived and it is clearly a counterfeit product. The instructions were badly photocopied and the description in the instructions doesn't match the tree. Parts of the tree is rusted. Takealot allow third party sellers to sell products on their site but Takealot does not verify the products sold, meaning Takealot cannot be trusted any longer. Most of the third party seller goods are imported low quality items from China and Takealot is aware of this.l, but taking advantage nonetheless.
Tevo's Bennett Read products do not last long and their aftersales service is TERRIBLE. No spare parts available. Their employees are poorly trained and don't reply to emails. Avoid. Rather spend a little bit more and get a trusted brand. Do not support Tevo.

Absolute ball-ache dealing with this company for our property transfer. Their communication is VERY POOR and their inefficiency is costing us money that we did not need to spend. I do not recommend STBB Attorneys. I could type a 20 page story about our experience with this company, but they are not worth anymore of my time. Avoid them at all costs.
I bought a 2017 Renault Kadjar 1.2T EDC under warranty and maintenance plan. This car has the worst automatic transmission of any vehicle I have ever driven. The car shudders when pulling away, it jerks forward suddenly meaning it takes great s**** to learn how to pull away without the sudden lurch forward, and the reverse gear is a total joke. In reverse the car will roll forward and suddenly the gear engages and causes it to lurch backwards suddenly. On a number of occasions I have almost accidentally hit into objects thanks to this ridiculous automatic gearbox. And what's worse, Renault claim that's the way its supposed to operate. Countless complaints about this poor auto gearbox are posted on international websites. Never buy a Renault with the "EDC auto" gearbox. This was my first, and will be my last, Renault purchase.
