My 3 year old Lenovo laptop crashed. I rang a Computer repair store and they did some basic diagnosis and said that it was not worth repairing the laptop and that I should get a new one. I then found Barrat Technology on womo and called Dylan. He was willing to take a look at the laptop to determine what was actually wrong. I dropped it off yesterday evening after work. Dylan rang me about an hour later to say that he found the fault and it was able to be fixed at a very reasonable price. I picked the laptop up the next day and am writing this review on it.

Excellent service and value! Highly recommended.

This review is for Affordable Skylights, Rosebud VIC

I was looking to get a skylight installed in my kitchen as very little natural light gets in. I found Affordable skylights on womo. I made a call and the quote process was very easy. Chris shared a lot of info on the phone. He followed up 2 days later and I went with the quote.

Price was reasonable and Chris came out when he said he would. There were a few challenges in installing it due to some obstacles in the ceiling cavity, but Chris was very patient and worked his way around them.

The skylight has made a great improvement in my kitchen. The mrs is already planning where to put the next one.

I highly recommend Chris if you are looking for a skylight.

I needed some work done in my garden that was getting very messy. Called Sam up and he came by that same day. Quote came through 2 days later as promised.

I went ahead due to how quickly he responded and based on reviews on this site. Sam came on time and did excellent work. Had trees pruned, hedges trimmed, garden beds weeded and then mulched. I wanted to have some mulc on a garden bed along my driveway. Sam suggested that I use some edge liners to keep the muclh in place and I must say it was a great idea that has made my driveway look so much neater and cleaner.

Sam also offered some good advice regarding the plants I have in the garden. Will use him again for sure.

I highly recommend Sam for any garden cleanups and landscaping.

This review is for Dentist at 330, Mount Waverley VIC

I had some dental work that needed to be done that I have put off for some time. One of the reasons I delayed doing anything was a lack of trust in my previous dentist. I found Dentists 330 on womo and made an appointment with Dr Vikash.

Dr Vikash was great to deal with. He was gentle and gave me some very good advice which as I suspected was different to my previous dentist. He explained the options available to me and let me make up my mind. No pressure at all.

I decided to go ahead with the treatment plan which involved 4 extractions. While he was away, I was oput ubder the care of Dr Faith and all I can say is that they both are very professional and have a great chair side manner. They do not just look at the short term issues but try to manage the long term health of your teeth.

Highly recommended.

This review is for Client Focused Financial Planning, Buderim QLD

I haave been with another financial planner the last 3 years but was not happy with the service given. It seemed that it was all about insurance/super in to certain fund. I wanted to get an overall assessment of my current situation and to know what options I had for investment.

I found Financial Wisdom on womo and sent an email. Graham responded promptly. In our first meeting, I was impressed by how well prepared he was and gained a lot of valuable knowledge. I did not want to make a wrong decision a second time with financial planners and insisted on speaking with one of his current clients which he kindly arranged.

Graham has now worked out an investment strategy for us which we are starting to implement. He charges on a fee for service model which I was looking for as it makes sure he is not swayed by commissions based on certain products. Some of his advice has already paid for some of fees through tax savings.

I would highly recommend Graham.

This review is for Jim's Dog Wash, Wheelers Hill VIC

Sent an online inquiry and they called the next day. Booked it for 2 days later. Lisa came on time and did a great job with my dog. She explained everything she was doing and handled my dog gently. He came out looking and smelling great. As the previous reviewer said, the cost is the same as me sending it to another groomer. Will use her service again.

This review is for Ajisen Ramen, Glen Waverley VIC

verified email - 12 Jul 2014

Went for dinner with the family tonight. Waitress did not look too interested, but that is pretty normal. I ordered the Chargrilled beef ramen, wife had the spicy pork ramesn, kids had the curry ramen and gyoza ramen. All were awful. The soup tastes as if you are eating a cup noodle. Too salty. Will not be going back.

Approximate cost: $12

Went there for breakfast with the family. Sevice was good. They found us a table pretty quickly on a busy morning.

However for the price you pay, the food was pretty average. The wife and I had eggs on toast and some extras on the side. The one good thing was the jam that came with the bagel. The coffee was ok, but not great.

Approximate cost: $15

I had some spot lights on the exterior of the house that were not functioning and also wanted to get an additional TV point in the bedroom. Arthur came out one afternoon to check things out. He also inspected some faulty lights and gave us some recommendations on what was needed. All at no cost as at this point in time I had not engaged him yet.

He uncovered some bad work done on the TV antenna and cables by the previous installer. I had to get a new TV antenna. Arthur did a fantastic job. He installed the cable properly in a conduit, retuned the TV and sealed all openings, something the previous installer failed to do.

Top class workmanship and he took the time to communicate all aspects of the work done. I would use him again.

This review is for Cafe Piatella, Glen Waverley VIC

This is now our favorite place in the Kingsway area for coffee and dessert. The gelato's are good and my kids love them. Coffee is ok. I had dinner on Saturday night and it was not too crowded. The mrs had the Roast pumpkin Risotto which was good and I had the Lemon and pepper calamari which came with a nice side salad. Portion sizes are good. I need to try the crepes next.

Service is ok but there can be times when the waiters are busy and you need to make an effort in order to get noticed or served. Overall, a place worth trying.

Approximate cost: $18
