I bought the citrus hand juicer and unfortunately it doesn't work that well. For some reason after several presses the top of thecjuicer would come down on to the cup. I loved the idea. I contacted... See more

I placed my first time order and had…an excellent experience
I placed my first time order and had the product delivered before the end of two days. The Dog car seat cover is exactly as pictured and is perfect for my need to keep my dog safe, contained to his area of my car and to keep my car a bit cleaner. Excellent experience.
Great service
The initial delivery of my defective phone case was very prompt but not as prompt as the resolution and replacement of the product. Would definitely deal with them again.
I bought a usp module from their site
I bought one of their products via website and it arrived super fast. The product was exactly as described. Recommended page!
Thank you for sorting my problem with…
Thank you for sorting my problem with the tarp I appreciate it very much and I value your service Buykiwi always 👍
Terrible communication and customer…
Terrible communication and customer service. Had to send multiple emails regarding my order, which they never responded to. They sent incorrect shipping information which left me wondering if this was a scam site
i purchased a 18v black and Decker battery a 3ah and they sent me a 2ah and the battery doesn't fit my cordless sander and i have to return it to Buy kiwi
Ui received my battery today and it wouldn't fit my B&D sander
I bought a chicken fence that came with…
I bought a chicken fence that came with the wrong sized screws so I was unable to assemble it, I emailed them for replacement screws, none have arrived weeks later, not much use to me, customer service dreadful.
DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY
DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. Product was completely faulty and unusable. $50 + postage for a hunk of useless plastic. Have tried for the past 2 weeks to get a refund and customer service giving a complete run around. Eventually they offered me a $20 refund as a “gesture of good will” which is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. I am livid and would encourage people to buy elsewhere. Terrible experience.
Purchased 2 stainless steel cat water…
Purchased 2 stainless steel cat water fountains on line, was the cheapest I could find around, a bonus was they were coming from a New Zealand warehouse, arrived 2 days of ordering, they looked like I hoped they would and worked better than I thought they would because they are silent. Thumbs up from me so far.
Buyer beware
Buyer beware, hit and miss/ bad communication.
I had an ok experience, ordered a 2k ish tool chest and it showed up as described,no damage but not really any communication.
Company can be slack with communication,and thats even if they send you your order based off what I've seen online.
Buyers use at your own risk.
Terrible customer service
Terrible customer service, I contacted them on their chat and said I was trying to purchase something on afterpay, but when I was checking out I went to choose the payment method afterpay and it wasn't there. They replied with “it should come up on the checkout page when you scroll down - we have afterpay and zip”
Yea way to state the obvious that I clearly stated I already knew, but absolutely no assistance with it.
Great items and great customer service
Made two purchases over the last 6 months, both were excellent. Great customer service and items arived quickly and very good quality. Will definitely be using Buy Kiwi Direct again
Terrible online store a Scam site
Terrible online store. Bought a Sony earphone thinking it was legit store but got caught in the scam. Had real Sony earphones to compare with when it arrived. Had subtle differences, but nonetheless the phones were fake. Do not trust buying from this site unless you want to part with your money.
I got sent a cat tree with most…
I got sent a cat tree with most dimensions being correct to what was stated. It ended up crooked . Then after emails back and forth they say they will send me a different part to fix. That will be interesting as many parts are nit the correct sizing. The qaulity control must be poor. Also much nicer in picture than real life. Looks more yellow than cream. Update received part, still not level. I was then told they are not going to do anything, my expectations are to high. Mmm I didn't order a cat tree that had a bed on a bad angle . Dont buy , they dont care and then blame customer
BEWARE buykiwi.co.nz and buykiwidirect.co.nz
Trying to contact buykiwi.co.nz & buykiwidirect.co.nz by phone or physical address to confirm details of a carseat for a toddler & to collect as I needed it within 3 days was impossible. Pleased I checked Trust Pilot reviews. It confirmed these sites are unreliable & do not have an actual store, admin or otherwise in New Zealand.
The info below is the only physical address info I found on the 'shop' section

Sold me trailer lights and one light…
Sold me trailer lights and one light doesn't work. Emaild them and they just pass you onto someone else without a care in the world. But will happily take you're money. Heres a nice one star for youre time with helping me, not.
First and last time
First and last time, brought an led makeup mirror, barely any packaging and the box was all squished. If you want to sell items and buy items in NZ lift your game or people will just buy from overaeas
Unable to fulfil, no refund so far
Ordered a pressure washer as listed on their site. Paid by card. No update for a week. Received a message from the actual seller saying the product was not available. Sent an enquiry to BuyKiwi and was offered either another (more expensive) product or a refund. Asked for a refund. Still waiting for my money, more than two weeks later. Definitely don’t recommend this crowd and definitely won’t buy from them again.
Ordered a play pen
Ordered a play pen. Wish I had looked here first.
Item was completely different to what was described and pictured
