Product Quality Failures, Price Increases and Loss of Consumer Trust
I am extremely disappointed with the drastic decline in quality and value at West Pack Lifestyle. I recently bought toilet bowl cleaner blocks that did not even last four days. Days later I found the same product at another retailer for nearly half the price. Cleaning products have become significantly more expensive, yet quality has clearly dropped. Storage items warp, crack, and break under normal use. The products look cheaply manufactured and poorly assembled. West Pack used to represent value and reliability. Today it represents overpriced, low-quality stock. I no longer see any reason to shop at West Pack when competitors offer better quality at better prices. Unless there is a serious improvement in sourcing and pricing, I will not be returning. Very disappointed in a brand that has clearly lost its standards.

Petzone don't care about your pet
I went to their pet zone store here in Pretoria east to get tropical parrot food, both stores owned by the same person, do not have stock and the staff tell me that the owner will only get a delivery after month end. Obviously he is trying to make as much profit as he can , so won't replace stock till his pockets are full. In other words he doesn't care about his customers or their pets. I find this disgusting behaviour

I purchased cleaning detergent from your West Pack Lifestyle branch at William Moffat Retail Centre and was very disappointed with the product. It appears to be watered down and not up to the usual quality standard I expect from your store.

Shocked That Staff Didn’t Know What Bottled Water Is
I’m honestly shocked by my experience at West Pack. I asked two different staff members where I could find bottled water, and neither of them seemed to understand what I meant. They even led us to the section with water bottles instead, and we had to explain multiple times that we were looking for water in a bottle — bottled water! I’ve bought bottled water here before, so I don’t understand how this was so confusing. The lack of basic product knowledge and customer understanding was really disappointing.
