For an electronics & gadget shop this is the place to go. Every single time I come in, without…read morefail, somebody always greets me at the door and asks if there's something in particular that I'm looking for (this isn't really the type of shop you come to for a browse) and they haven't let me down once. They always seem to have stock. Anything from floppy discs (yep, you can still buy 'em) to 50 meter ethernet cables. They've got it! Staff seem to all know exactly what they're talking about even though there's such a vast variety of things on sale here. They're all extremely friendly and I haven't once been left waiting for somebody to come serve me. They also seem genuinely happy in what they do so it's so much easier to talk to them and get advice. What ever they're doing, they need to keep it up!

The problem is it is not easy to find...it is located through a lane way off the Main Street, at the entrance to Celbridge Hire and right beside Gimini Hair. The proprietor told me Kildare County Council will not allow him to advertise his shop with a sign on the Main Street so he has to rely on word of mouth! Yesterday, I was able to purchase a whole lot of different light bulbs for various light fittings, even one for my freezer...and might I add at an extremely reasonable rate. All you Celbridge people, do call to this amazing little shop for all your electrical needs and other household items!

Happened to find myself @ Airside Retail Park today and this was one of the stores I visited. This…read moreis the second time in a year ive been in this particular store. The first time was January 2012 and the sales where on at it was a fecking nightmare. Parking was almost impossible and you would have thought by the crowds thronging into Harvey Normans that they must be giving the stuff away for free. It was wall to wall with shoppers, the staff where trying to appease everybody and it was utter chaos. I was looking to purchase an American style fridge but I couldn't get adequate attention and the other shoppers where growing impatient at having to wait to be served so I left it on that particular day and purchased my fridge later that mid week closer to home. Today was a horse of a different colour. Midweek, afternoon shopping is always best, no crowds, no queues, plenty of parking, relaxed and considerably more staff to attend to your needs. Harvey Norman is a great place to shop, even if you're only looking to browse or you want to test the "expertise" of the staff with more technical queries. The spaciousness of the the store is the fIrst plus. Goods are well spaced out in the furniture and bedding areas, sections of full bedroom displays with made beds is a real classy selling point. I am in the market for a new bedroom so today was a great day to get a feel of what I wanted. I had plenty of time get a good look at the quality, no issue with giving the bed a good try out, or pull the drawers out and examine thoroughly and to take measurements. We where never hassled by the employees, (which is one thing about furniture shopping I hate, pushy sales persons trying to size you up to reach their monthly targets). The staff kept their distance and allowed us to browse occasionally and politely asking of we required assistance. We spent a couple of hours in the store browsing mostly and had a good rummage in the bargain bins strategically dotted about the place. The range is superb, and the prices seem to be competitive. Harvey Norman also arrange finance and you can get a quote or credit check done in minutes by the staff. Like all big boys I loved looking at the 60" Tv screens and the latest hi-tech surround sound systems, the computer section has hundreds of display items all in working order to try out. Knowledgable staff at the camera section where very informing and not sales pushy which is great. I really enjoyed my day off browsing here and i will definitely be back when I have got the bedroom floors down and the decor sorted.

I always forget something when I travel, and this time it was a bloody UK/US adapter plug…read more Initially, I bought one from the hotel which was so cheap, you could tell just by looking at the individually wrapped item as if it was a cookie from Circle K. It was unusable, so I returned it and searched out in the world. After passing up a sketchy place on Dame Street, I came across this hardware store that had a small selection of converter plugs. Both the gents working there were friendly and talkative, assuring me that they were of good enough quality, or they wouldn't sell them. I went for the less expensive of the two adapters, and it works just swell. Reasonable price. Lifesaver!!! I CAN PLUG IN MY ELECTRONICS OMFGGGGG... I have no other experience, and likely never will... but if I can find an excuse to start a home improvement project in Dublin, I'll come back here.

I cannot recommend Harvey Norman Drogheda highly enough! After purchasing a brand‑new TV on…read moreSaturday, I accidentally damaged it beyond repair while unpacking. I called the store fully expecting to be out of luck--perhaps a small discount or maybe take the broken TV off my hands--but what happened next completely blew me away. Without hesitation, the team offered to replace the TV free of charge. Their generosity and willingness to help transformed what had felt like the final straw in a truly trying week into genuine relief and joy. As a parent of a child with severe autism, recent days have been especially challenging: our son, in a wave of dysregulation over the Easter break, managed to break nearly €3,000 worth of technology--TV, laptop, computer monitors, a printer, you name it. We've since secured everything with anti‑tip straps, but at that moment the idea of losing another TV felt unbearable. Harvey Norman's kindness came at exactly the right time. They had no way of knowing how much this act of goodwill meant to our family, turning a near‑disaster into a reminder that there are still businesses who truly care. From the courteous Customer Care (Thaks Nicola!) to the hassle‑free exchange, every step was handled with professionalism and genuine warmth. I will be singing their praises to everyone I know--and I'll certainly be back in Drogheda whenever we need anything tech‑related. Harvey Norman, you've earned a customer for life! Warmest regards, Stephen O'Brien

Well the washing machine froze the week before Christmas and refused to work once thawed. Being 5…read moreyears old and having given plenty of washes over it's lifetime - the decision was made to purchase a new one. Plenty of internet research later we had it narrowed down to one in Harvey Norman or one on Power City - went to Harvey Norman first and was greeted on the way in the door by a cheery man. While I understand that retail establishments are adopting this practice of "greeting" to improve customer service and also for security - I for one can't stand it. I hate the falseness of it, and also any of them that I have ever asked for help -can't. They have to stand there in their greeters spot and not do anything else, bar point me in the direction of "regular staff" Walked through the vast furniture department (love the smell of the leather couches!) to the electrical department and on the way in the door they had their best offers on display, ie their best reduced washing machine, dryer, fridge etc. A fairly cheap model caught my eye and we had a glance over the specifations before having a perusal at the rest of the washing machines available. While I wouldn't consider myself to be a "brand snob" - I also have a dread fear of unknown brands so dismissed the cheapest option - the "finlux" brand immediately. Noticed that Harvey Norman don't seem to stock the "Bosch" brand anymore, anybody who seems to know anything about washing machines says to buy a "bosch" for reliability and longevity. No staff were around to help us as it was fairly busy with customers so we made our way out to the best offers again, ended up going for an "indesit" 6K, 1000spin washer reduced from €299 to €149. It's A energy rated and has "eco" water facility and plenty of program options so it was going to do the job for us nicely and at a nice price as well. Staff were on hand to process the transaction almost immediately and then we were told to drive around to their warehouse around the corner for collection. All in all a fairly easy purchase, if it wasn't for the pesky greeter who waved a cheery false goodbye on the way out.
