    Back in the day, Freedom, was regarded as 'the' furniture shop for the middle to higher class…read moreAustralians. They filled in that void in the market, for trendy, quality furniture at average to pricey costs. Nowadays, there are many other players in the market attempting at a slice of the pie. In fact, I think Ikea has tempted some of their customers away. Freedom no longer has the same appeal it used to. When picking a lounge, I wasn't convinced Ikea is the place to go. So to Freedom we went. We had purchased a lounge with chase from Freedom and waited for around 3-4 months. After persistently chasing it up, it finally had arrived. To my horror, the chase was on the wrong side! It would not work in the lounge room- it's all wrong! We complained and they apologised and said they'd re-order it. No compensation, we were expected to just wait. Wait, we did and it arrived correctly 2 months later. This was one of the worst shopping experiences I've ever had. Not only did it take twice as long as their estimated wait, which they blamed on the factory workers in China, the customer service back was appalling.

    Just had the worst experience at Freedom Jindalee. Even when I came back into the store after…read moreleaving in disgust, I didn't get an apology or even recognition from the manager that the staff member Susan had been absolutely down right rude in my discussion with her. My wife was going to furnish our entire new house - lounges, bedrooms etc - probably spend close to 10k but not anymore. Susan couldn't even be bothered coming to the lounges less than 20m away, and insisted I go and find out "what it's called" and she'll look it up on the computer. Combine laziness and rudeness and you get Susan. Merry. F.N. Christmas.

    The Furniture Shack mainly stock outdoor alfresco style furniture and at that, most of it is made…read moreout of synthetic woven cane material. Still, it looks pretty good and with their low prices, makes it hard to resist. It's quite a big showroom filled with furniture which you meander through and around. During the times I've been both of weekends and weekdays, I didn't find it to be too busy inside, so it gives plenty of time to peruse the options. One thing I noticed which I didn't like to much is that they lack in good customer service. I walked in and circled the entire store without so much as a glance. I didn't take it personally, because I noticed it happened with all the customers they had in store at the time. The staff waited until they were approached by customers first. I don't know about you, but I think that's all back to front! In the end, after I approached them and asked for assistance. They were relatively nice and helpful enough. Not the most pleasant of shopping experiences, but it will do.

    Whenever I am unsure of exactly what to get someone for a present (whether it is a housewarming,…read morebirthday, or Christmas) I tend to venture into homewares and gifts shops. You know, the type that a full of little nick knacks for around the home, sculptures, cushions, scarfs, lamps, ornate boxes, rugs and a lot of pretty but useless decorations. Nest Homewares and Gifts is one of these stores. Rather a small shop, it is chockablock full of stuff to look at and riffle through. They had a great selection of classy looking gift cards out the front as well as some welcome mats when I walked past the other day. Unlike most homewares shops, Nest also has a small range of clothing and scarfs available. Check them out if, like me, you are desperate for some gift ideas.

    If I had to describe Nest in one word it would be 'elegant'. Everything sold in this store looks…read morelike it would be something you would fine in the home of an elegant 'lady who lunches ". This makes total sense as their are many of these ladies roaming around Kenmore. To be perfectly honest, this store is nothing unique; it sells pretty decorations, hand-bags, jewellery, and all sort of things that not one really needs, but I can't help but love walking into the store an imagining what my life would be like if I had money to burn. The store is nice and clean, modern and is very well organised. It even smells good too. If you are an elegant lady living around Kenmore, you might want to check this store out if you have not already. This store is also perfect if you are looking to buy a present an elegant lady in your life.

    Knowing nothing about the different types of beds out there, I wondered into my fourth bed shop…read moreSnooze, suddenly feeling very snoozy myself. Entering the airconditioning... great stuff. I met a nice gentleman who asked me if I needed any help... so I replied help. The poor guy didn't know what he was getting into. He started asking me all these questions about beds, looking at the blank expression on my face I decided I would tell him the truth... I don't know anything about a bed. I know that I need it to feel not too hard but not too soft. I knew I wanted one with a warranty. that's about it. No fancy stuff like tassles along the edges... He mentioned a few things to me: He was a specially trained sleep consultant (huh?) Snooze has been around for 30 years (I guess that's kind of good) Taking away this information, I figured it was gibberish for 'I know what I'm talking about fool, listen to me when I tell you this bed is da bomb'. We found a nice mattress, a mix between inner spring and latex, we differentiated between frames and ensembles, we differentiated the types of wood? Anyway, I walked out of there thinking 'the price is the same as the others, I have to think about this' but I definetely learnt a lot of stuff about beds, and how complex they are. Little organisms they are really... aren't they. No... they're just beds. Definetely check out a Snooze shop if you are hopeless about beds like I am, I guarantee you'll at least learn something, to better arm yourself at bed negotiation. It's a crazy world out there. Information is power! Or in this case, Snooze is power!

    Went into this store today looking for a matress. Store is clean and presentable. They were not…read morethat busy and i was in there for about 45mins trying different beds. Not one staff member greeted me or approached me. They just stood around. I had to pass 2 staff members on 2 separate occasions that were standing in the walkway between beds. Not a word. I figured it would be too much trouble for them so i walked around the corner to Forty Winks and bought a matress. It came with a discount, free delivery, and staff who did not just stand around like stunned mullets.
