Review of Lennon solar
We chose Lennon Solar because of their 5 star ratings, and we were impressed by Anthony, the Salesman. He was the first to not try to sell us a battery which we did not need, and he was also the only person to suggest we could get 5 solar panels on our side roof & back roof - which turned out to be incorrect, so we also had to put panels on the front roof to get the maximum grant.
While the system is working ok now, we had quite a saga with our installation (details below), between the installers not doing what we agreed with the engineer, and the seemingly lack of communication between the ground crews and the office on what needed to be done. It took over 5 weeks from initial visit, to everything fully sorted & complete, but thankfully the system is ok since then.
Tues 3rd Feb ’26 : This was the agreed installation date, but it was wet & stormy, so only some of the initial wiring could be done – the ‘junction box’ in attic was not put in the place we had agreed with Christian the engineer, and the toilet seat (under the fuse-box) was broken.
Wed 4th Feb : Roofers came & put up panels on roof – they were putting the cables out around the roof gutters (something we specifically said to Christian we did not want) until we stopped them & did them as agreed. There was no electrician with them to finish the installation that day – we were told someone would come on Saturday. We had to call the office Friday afternoon to confirm this.
Sat 7th Feb: The electrician came, but could not get the App working because the inverter kept dropping the wifi connection – he said he would have to come back next week.
Wed 11th Feb: After a number of phone calls, a different electrician came to get the wifi connected properly. We had to call our service provider and get them to split our connection into 5GHz and 2.4GHz, because the inverter could not pick up the 2.4GHz signal (as most devices can). It also turned out there had been some issue with the installation of the inverter. When the connection was established, the electrician was ready to leave – until we told him we also didn’t have the App set up on our phones – he was unaware of that issue. He tried to resolve that issue but could not because the Inverter support team had finished for the day (4pm) – so he’d have to come back again.
Thurs 12th Feb: Electrician came back again & quicky got the App set up for us.
Tues 17th Feb : Queried with Lennons if the ‘Installer Declaration Form’ we got in the post with final invoice had to be signed – it did, in order to get the SEAI grant money. Also queried the replacement cost of the broken toilet seat – they said they would re-issue the invoice with that cost deducted. Also queried the un-filled holes which were left in our attic insulation & asked if there were holes left in the felt under the roof tiles – they said the team would return to the site to action a plan for the holes in the roof.
Tues 24th Feb : Asked Lennons when would someone contact us about the roof.
Tues 3rd Mar: We were told we would have a confirmed date by COB 4th Mar for the roof visit.
Thurs 5th Mar : Got a call from someone in Lennons who thought he was ringing about fixing the holes in the internal installation – he knew nothing about the potential holes in the felt – said he would have to get back to us.
Sun 8th Mar : App stopped providing information
Tues 10th Mar: Contacted Lennons again, asking when someone would come to check the roof & could we have someone fix the App.
Wed 11th Mar: Roofers came and patched any holes in the felt.
Thurs 12th Mar: Electrician came to investigate the App issue. He had to install a wifi booster. He was also very helpful in giving us a run through on what the App shows, which nobody had done up to that point.
Review of Roches Hair Loss & Breast Care
I visited Roches to today to get a few hats, and a fringe & hair halo to wear with them.
Andrea was really helpful, showing me a selection of hats that met my criteria & helping me fit them all on. Maria on reception was great with proposing the best way to make the most of the various funding available (HSE/ PRSI / Health Insurance/ 20% tax refund).
While the hats may appear expensive at face value, they are good quality, and using the expert advice on making the most of the funding /refunds available, they actually cost a lot less at the end of the day than it seems.
I would definitely recommend and will come back again.
Review of wholesaleflowers.ie
We got all the flowers for my daughters wedding at Wholesale Flowers in Sandyford. They have a great selecton of artificial flowers & greenery, which we used to make the bouquets ourselves, and also used for the hotel decorations - cost a fraction of what real ones would have cost, and reduced stress because they could be done in advance. We also got a few arrangements made by Ingrid, who was so helpful - these were mostly fresh flowers, but she included a few artificial ones which my daughter really liked (they were such good quality, nobody knew the difference). I would definitely recommend this place.
Review of Gomibo.ie
I ordered a phone on this website because I had used them before with no issue and the prices are great. I WILL NEVER ORDER FROM THEM AGAIN.
This is the short version of what happened - the worst customer experience EVER. Between 28th Dec '24 to late Feb 25 I had 5 orders cancelled by their system, price increase of €101 on the phone, next order lost by UPS, next order delivered to incorrect address (located it myself), almost 30 emails (including 2 requests to print, complete and sign a form with issue details which they already knew), and 5 phone calls from them. After the 4 cancelled orders I got a discount for the value of the screen protector (which didn’t cover the replacement because the price went up), and €80 refund, which was supposed to cover the increase in price of the phone, but didn’t because they didn't bother to look at the two orders and basically took back the first discount they'd given me.
It takes them days or more to reply to any email, they have no follow through / continuity to emails / phone calls and treat every issue as if it's the first one the customer experienced. WORST CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE EVER.
Update 24/3/25 : After posting the above review, I had a call from Gomibo, offering me a voucher for €40, which I accepted. They then also sent me a link inviting me to update my review - so I will.... So the €40 voucher means that overall, for all my issues, I got a voucher for the price of the original screen protector I ordered, a refund of most of the difference in the phone cost, the rest of the difference included as part of this voucher, with €20 'free' voucher. The €40 voucher helps, but I really hope they take on board the feedback I've given them several times on their customer service processes. Best of luck to me now using the voucher, I'm very wary - hopefully it will be problem free.
Review of Soundstore
Got my Radio with a few days & am happy with it.
Would be five stars except there was no information on when it would be delivered, or when it was dispatched.
Otherwise I'm happy.

Review of Faro Airport Taxis
We prebooked a transfer from Faro Airport to our apartment and a return trip a few days later.
Booking process was easy, with option to pay online when booking, or pay the driver. Easy to find at the airport, & punctual for pickup. Cars were clean & comfortable, and drivers very both very profressional and friendly. Would definitely recommend.
Review of An Post Insurance
Would give 5 except I had to request a discount to get the best price - it would be nice if the best price could be automatically given to repeat customers.
Agent I spoke with was very helpful and pleasant.
Review of Superdry
We ordered a coat online - it arrived very quickly but turned out to be too small (our fault). It came with return details, stickers etc, which made it very easy to return, but we also had the option to return it to a local Superdry store & exchange for the right size. SO easy to deal with, and the coat is really good quality.
Would definitely buy from Superdry again.
