Best place to find honest reviews, heard its probably the fastest growing review site in the market, allowing trades to find the reviews they need left by other trades before buying. probably

Quite new to the app but it’s seems really good so far, good deals every week and a good community too, nice to see what real people in the trade think about the tools and equipment you are interested in. Only downside is the profanity filter, seems to trigger on the silliest things.

Brilliant idea, love the deals, love the app, cant stand the profanity filter however. Seems to trigger on alot of standard words. Tried writing a few reviews and ended up scrapping them, due to profanity, none was used.

Finally a app for the trades that allow for honest reviews of products, with some really good deals available at great prices I've found I've been buying stuff just because its cheap even thoe I never needed them
Review for Tool Talk by Cavendish Electrical Services

What a great app and idea! Good deals, not yet found one that I really need but I’m sure I will. Regular giveaways too for those with 5 or more reviews. I have tools and products from a few brands that are not listed, so I’m struggling to get to the top level of 25 reviews. I guess reviewing Tool Talk is an easy start to racking up those reviews though!

Great app. Easy to use and the deals are great. Saves time with research for tools as I can just come here and look at genuine reviews from genuine trades people minus the arguments about what brand is best red, green or yellow. If the review says it’s great then that’s what I’m having regardless of the brand.

CK SWA cutter/stripper
This tool literally saves half my day, makes SWA work a breeze! The blades seem to last forever and the shape makes using it effortless, if I were still using the old hacksaw method I would probably have packed it in a long time ago. Although people may say its a bit expensive for what you actually get, I definitely wouldn’t be without it and will definitely replace it with another.

You can only really judge a company by the people. And everyone I have spoken to has been brilliant.

The Snap-On soft face deadblow hammer, many turn their nose up when they see me use it at work as they think I'm trying to prove something with the expensive branding but you cannot beat it. As a sheet metal worker I do not have to worry about damaging the surface finish with this hammer, if I need to make a calculated technical adjustment I can count on this mallet. Forever borrowed but always sniffled at when not in sight on site.
