Avoid Trade Hero – Sells faulty goods and hides behind fine print.

I purchased a product that arrived with a dangerous fuel leak. When I tried to temporarily patch the leak to prevent a hazard, Trade Hero used that "modification" as an excuse to void the warranty and refuse a full refund. They are more interested in technicalities than the fact that they sent out a defective, unsafe product. Extremely poor customer service and zero accountability. Save your money and shop elsewhere.

Hi Luke,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We always respond publicly so other customers have full context.

We assess every return under Australian Consumer Law, which we take seriously. In this case the unit was returned to us for a hands-on technical inspection. The inspection, completed on 22 April, found no leak present on the fuel tank, and identified that hot glue had been applied next to the bolts attaching the tank to the main unit before the unit was returned. Both findings were shared with you in writing, with video and photographs.

ACL protects consumers who take reasonable steps to mitigate damage. Permanent modification of a product before contacting the seller is not reasonable mitigation — it prevents independent assessment of the original condition. Despite the inspection findings, a partial refund was offered as a goodwill remedy, and you accepted that resolution in writing on 26 April 2026.

We would have welcomed the opportunity to assess and remedy the unit before any modification was made, and we remain available if you would like to discuss it further.

Smooth Ordering and Fast Delivery

We recently purchased an e-bike carrier from Trade Hero Australia and couldn’t be happier. Ordering was very easy, dispatch was fast, and delivery was smooth with no issues at all. The carrier was on sale, so it was a great price, and assembly was straightforward thanks to the clear instructions provided. We’re also very happy with the overall quality of the product. Would definitely purchase from them again.

motorcycle lift table

Just bought a motorcycle lift table, package weights 170kg on a pallet. We had no wrning about date and time of delivery, only an "approximate date".
Package was left outside the property on the lawn...

Also, a flaw it the design of this motorcycle lift table: the let down mechanism is very flimsy and unpractical. Cheap and almost useless. I have a similar lifting table somewhere else, and it has a much better system, simple and reliable. I had to fix this one very shortly after beginning of use.

Regarding the motorcycle table lift, we appreciate your feedback on the let-down mechanism. To help us properly assess the concern and provide a resolution, we kindly request that you provide detailed information about the issue, including photos and a short video demonstrating the problem.

TRADE HERO. Battery charger dangerous

I purchased a large battery charger off these guys 18mths and i have been very happy with it although i have only used it 7-8 times its worked fine, yesterday i put the charger on a flat battery, only to come back to it 20mins later and it had caught on fire and nearly burt my forklift to the ground, buggered the battery aswell, i thought perhaps i had hooked the charger on the wrong way, but no on closer inspection everything on my end was fine, surely its ment to last longer than 18mths, my old kmart 4amp charger still works after 20years, TRADE HERO refused to replace it, i should have known better buying chinese junk
I might ad it clearly says in description of the charger

Hi Adam, thank you for reaching out, and we’re truly sorry to hear about the incident. We completely understand how alarming and frustrating this must have been.

There are several factors that could potentially contribute to this type of issue:

Battery Condition: The forklift battery may have had an underlying fault, degradation, or internal short that could cause overheating during charging. Even batteries with limited use can develop issues over time that affect performance and safety.

Environmental Factors: Exposure to moisture, dust, or extreme temperatures can impact both the charger and the battery, potentially causing electrical faults or short circuits.

Electrical Load: Sudden surges, incompatible battery types, or irregular electrical load during charging can create conditions that lead to overheating or failure of the charger.

It’s important to note that this unit is a small-capacity battery charger, designed to operate within specific voltage and amp-hour limits. Batteries that exceed the charger’s rated capacity, have different chemistry, or require higher charging current may not be compatible. To ensure safe and proper operation, the battery being charged must comply with the charger’s specified voltage range, capacity rating, and charging profile.

We also wish to inform you that this incident was reported outside our standard 12-month warranty period, which unfortunately limits the options available for replacement.

We take safety reports like this very seriously and have documented the details for our technical team’s review.

We appreciate your feedback, and your observations will help us continue monitoring and improving our products.

Decent cheap option for smaller branches as described

Delivered promptly and works as expected for smaller shrubs and branches. Perfect for turning the big pruning jobs into mulch. Appeared to be a returned item as it arrived a bit dirty with some dents.

Hi Kyle, thank you for your feedback and for letting us know about your experience.

Please be assured that all of our units are brand new and are carefully inspected prior to dispatch. The dents and dirt you’ve noticed may have been caused by courier mishandling during delivery.

We would be happy to review this further — kindly email us with details and photos of the concern, and our team will assess it promptly.

Great product

Great product, I purchased an anti-sway/load levelling kit for my car trailer. I was blown away with the price considering you also get a lockable hitch pin and a mechanical/friction sway bar kit, even a chrome tow ball cover! Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anybody!

Everything arrived quickly and high quality

Everything arrived nicely and quickly. I haven’t installed the gate opener that I ordered yet but it looks to be good quality. I was suspicious about what the instructions would be like but they ended up being quite detailed and well written.

Electric Door Opener

I bought 2 Electric Door Openers at a great discounted price and they were delivered very quickly. The instructions are a little vague in places but in the end I managed to get both roller doors sorted. I did however need to source weights for both doors as the kits did not come with them, even though the installation mentions them as a requirement.
