Easy to find what I wanted online. The range hood and cook top seem OK quality, although not installed yet. I had confidence as I have been pleased with a previous cooktop oder. The tap wasn't very... See more

Trade Depot had the freezer I needed at a great price. The guarantee/warranty is no different than the "high end" brands at a fraction of the price.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Delivery was ok, but didnt receive good communication. Product turned up without me knowing it was coming. Pricing is good.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Great product range & great prices. Staff know product details well. Great friendly service. Quick processing. Auckland depot is down driveway, parking not great especially if have a trailer.

Product was available

Product was available. I was helped very quickly by a salesperson. While the salesperson was very polite he was very hard to understand. English needs to be better with some of your staff.

Delivery not complete. Poor communication

We have dealt with trade depot before and have had great service but our last purchase was missing an item on delivery. We have contacted them and initally got a response asking us to confirm the photo taken by the courier, however we have not heard anything further despite contacting them again. So disappointing.

Hi Debbie, this is our mistake for not being clearer about what is and isn't included in the vanity combo. Our vanity combos don't come with tapware, and the product page should have stated that. We've since updated it so this doesn't happen again. Robert, who you've been dealing with over email, is sorting a tapware set to be sent out to put things right.

Visited the Hamilton Trade Depot to buy a new fridge/freezer and also enquiring about the solar.
Spoke with Grace who knew what she was talking about for us to understand.
Trade Depot Hamilton has an awesome worker in Grace.
I look forward to my next visit to catch up with Grace again for more info.

Totally unacceptable service

Received two heated towel rails of which both were faulty. One with an electrical fault (diagnosed by certified electrician) and the other is crooked. Whilst I understand sometimes things go wrong and I’ve been unlucky…the fact that they won’t replace or refund until items are received back in their warehouse is ridiculous considering I’ve been waiting 5 weeks for them to be picked up from my porch! Numerous phone calls and messages, promises made that couriers will pick up! I even asked if I can drop them off somewhere…but no. I have a newly renovated tiled bathroom with holes in the wall where one was but has an electrical fault and it blew the power in the house! An emergency sparky cost me $$. Terrible service, still waiting! Trade depot do better this is unacceptable.

Update from 24 July. Now here’s the response from trade depot because it takes a bad review to get some acknowledgment . Surprise, surprise, they are still sitting on my doorstep and it’s now Monday 27th….

From Trade depot: I completely understand your frustration, especially after waiting so long, and I'm truly sorry for the experience you've had.

I can confirm that your collection is scheduled for tomorrow 25/7. I've also coordinated directly with our Dispatch Manager to help ensure this is completed as planned.

I understand that you've heard similar assurances before, but I've escalated this internally to help make sure the collection goes ahead.

Thank you for your patience, and I'll continue to monitor the progress until it's been completed.

Hey Josie, our Customer Service Manager, Louis, has reached out to resolve this for you. I'm sorry to hear the shower liner was delivered damaged.

No. Just no.

This is the absolute worst company to deal with. There are always delivery issues and to get a response is nearly impossible. The delivery company they use is also completely hopeless- 9/10 times things arrive damaged.
