I was looking for a drill driver and…
I was looking for a drill driver and had no idea where to start looking since I had no experience with such a tool. Thankfully customer assistant John was called to help me. He was very helpful! I was amazed at how much time and effort he spent to efficiently explain a few models that would be good for my purpose. He patiently answered all questions I had (and they were many!). He even got a model from the warehouse, opened it up and guided me through all the features, teaching /showing me how to use it. Furthermore, John, helped me decide which drill bit collection box to choose, again, explaining and showing me what each types of drill bits were used for which purpose and also comparing prices to value/quality. I must say, I have never had the luck to have been assisted so thoroughly by someone before. Not only did I leave the shop confident about the choice of tool I was buying but I was also given a full lecture about how to use it. Superb customer experience thanks to John!
