Michael and his team installed a LG air conditioner into our house in January 2012, after I read his other reviews on this website. I was very happy with his service: they were very fast with the install, and were cheaper than the other quotes I received (for the same product)

Another standard satisfactory boring restaurant - nothing notable except for large meals which are "hit and miss". I have been here a few times and had fairly good meals, friends have ordered some bad meals.

Approximate cost: $20-30

I went to this restaurant on the weekend for dinner with approximately 10 other people. The service was good - prompt ordering and delivery of food. The food itself was ok, nothing special. The prices were standard. All in all, a satisfactory boring restaurant.

Approximate cost: $20-30

This review is for IGA Supermarket, Rowville VIC

I shop at Rowville IGA when I am looking for something different. They have a great range, including brands that Coles and Woolworths don't offer - including a great range of Weight Watcher products. Their prices are more expensive which is a shame - I would shop there more if they were more competitive.

This review is for Kmart, Rowville VIC

KMart at Rowville was recently refurbished and look amazing! However, their range of products has gone down - rather than having 3 or 4 brands, they now mainly stock KMart generic brands only. This is disappointing as, although very cheap, they are generally poor quality. What I do like is their clothing range (good for a new outfit on a small budget), and their seasonal/ giftwares such as Christmas at the moment (much cheaper than anywhere else).

This review is for Coles, Rowville VIC

This is where I used to do my weekly shop. I moved across to Woolworths because they had a better range of products and more discounted bread/ meat in the evenings
The reason I occasionally still go to Coles is because they are in a better location - inside the shopping centre next to KMart and other boutique stores. They also have different specials which at times can be better than Woolworths.

This review is for Woolworths / Safeway, Rowville VIC

This is where I do my weekly shop.
Pros: large range of products (more than Coles across the road), reduced bread/ meat in the evenings, good range of specials across the month
Cons: fresh fruit/ veg has been disappointing (esp celery, onions, potatoes, stone fruits)

This review is for Wantirna South Medical Centre, Wantirna South VIC

Dr. Graham Irving (dentist) was recommended to me by a family member. I was very impressed by his bedside manner - he kept me distracted from what was happening in my mouth by talking about what he was doing mixed with other general chatter, but was not over-the-top and did not ask for answers back (very annoying trait in some dentists - you have your hand in my mouth, I can't answer you!). He knew that I did not have private health insurance so he kept the work/ cost to a manageable amount. I will be going back to him again soon.

This review is for Bella Restaurant, Rowville VIC

I have dined at this restaurant a number of times and always been impressed with their food and service. Their main meals are average in price ($20-30), pizza and specials slightly cheaper than that. The only con is the number of tables/seats they squeeze into the room, and therefore the very noisy atmosphere - you can hear everything of the conversation of the table next to you!

Approximate cost: $25

This review is for Ray White Rowville, Rowville VIC

verified email - 16 Sep 2010

We have been tenants with Ray White Rowville for 2 and 1/2 years. They have provided very disappointing service is this time, particularly with respect to getting repairs done. A couple of examples:
1. Our hot water service is very dodgy and fails regularly. When we called Ray White on a Saturday because we had no hot water, they told us they could not do anything until Monday morning (despite hot water being an essential service they have to provide). After much arguing and shouting down the phone, they eventually agreed to contact the Landlord to get him to fix the problem.
2. During the wild storms in March '10, both of our skylights were damaged and needed to be replaced. Ray White would not believe us 3 months later that the Landlord had still not fixed them, despite them taking photos the day before! They offered no support in solving the problem and we had to resort to filing a Breach of Contract.
