Unbelievably helpful and supportive staff. I bought a portable chiller and, feeling it might be a little on the loud side, took it back and asked their advice. Not only did they test it with a decibel meter but contacted manufacturers support technical staff and sort their advice. Adam was just amazing at this store - and right in the midst of a Christmas rush. He couldn't have gone out of his way any more - and with a cheerful manner that is so often lacking in retail these days. Upshot of it was they thought the unit was operating within noise parameters but insisted they swap it for a new one or a refund. Wow!! That's service. A very big thank you to Adam and store manager Michael. One very happy customer.

Went there today 24.07.23 and looked for RJ45, cat 5e, tool- less computer cable plugs, male , female,- the customer service was outstanding, unfortunately I do not remember the mates name, young ,tall, slim and black hair, earring- aaannnyyyway the most relevant description is:I have come very rarely across a retail worker who does such an effort and keeps calm, helpful and motivational, thank you - can only recommend this shop also from former shopping experiences,especially good for those customer types like me ,who are shy to ask the odd questions and only knowing brittle details of the product range names and offers. Thank you again.

I have been using this store in and off for some time. On this occasion wanted some security system components. The layout of the store is well set up with like with like organisation. Even so I simply went to a staff member and gave him the part numbers and he quickly located the items. The best part was the advice that I was given in my job that has saved me a lot of time and money. The products on sale range from very average quality thought to higher end equipment. The staff give advice based on the needs that you have. A very friendly crew located on Main Road with good parking at the rear of the building.

  • Neil Booth

Decent sized shop, very good range of products and plenty of stock. Jaycar folks a niche that otherwise isn't serviced. This branch though is let down by the staff. Often they seem to be more interested in continuing their conversation between themselves and on my last visit I could hear crude language that was being spoken at the counter from the back of the store. **Update Jan 2023** There always to have been a turnover of staff since the original review. Staff are now very helpful and attitudes have changed completely.

  • Annie de Jong

I popped in to Jaycar today to seek advice on a solar setup for car camping. The customer service was awesome and totally exceeded my expectations! Not only did Jordan explain all the components I would need, he comprehensively broke down the features and differences in a way I understood and wrote out a complete plan within my budget. Honest, friendly and willing to go that extra mile - thanks again, Jordan. Your help was very much appreciated!

  • Chris potts

I visited Jaycar today looking for some electrical plugs and some glue. Jaycar has a fantastic range of all things electrical,tools, gadgets and heaps more When I couldn't locate a suitable glue for my Grandsons model plane the young man at the counter went to great lengths to find a suitable product. I think their prices are competitive and their service outstanding. I am glad to recommend Jaycar for good product, good prices and great service.

  • Onyx

Went in for a simple anti static strap. Saw on website some for $7 and $10. When I asked for them, I was shown to their place and had one for $17 something picked for me. On departing, I glanced back and noticed a cheaper one for 13. It is trivial, yes, but I was not happy not being offered more than one option, and cheaper at that. Makes me not trust them to shop there for bigger orders. Just pays to look yourself I guess.

THE BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE IN HOBART!!!! I was served by Jordan two days ago. His level of customer service was unbelievable. Not only was he knowledgeable about the product, he patiently explained all the features of the transmitter I bought and set it up in my car! I cannot recommend him, the staff and their products highly enough! ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

  • Craig Webb

Just a positive and helpful experience, I bought a gps unit from Jaycee Moonah and it was tricky setting up Not only did Jordan Woodbridge assist in the complexity of it he actually drove to see me at the Auto electrician to help set up and make sure all worked correctly, Credit where credit is due and Jaycar n Jordan Thank you

  • Adam Lewis

While expect delays to happen, after ringing I was told my 1hr click and collect could now possibly be a 3-4 day click n collect. No other help was offered other then "ring back in a couple of days", kind of annoyed me that there was no more specific information offered as parts ordered were needed for a client.

  • Peter Johnson

Pretty decent range of products for Hobart and staff fairly knowledgeable. I work in the embedded electronics area and some of the pricing is a bit more than I can get elsewhere, but it's often handy to pick up things locally rather than have to wait overnight (or longer) to order from elsewhere.

  • Marcie B

Great service here. I had a faulty LED and nothing was too much trouble for the store manager, Simon. He explained other options, processed a refund and was very helpful in all respects. All of the staff at Jaycar in Moonah are very friendly & knowledgable, it's always a pleasure to shop there.

  • Tammy Clay

Within minutes of walking into the store I had a young fella come up to see if he could help me. He answered all of my questions in relation to what I was looking for and because of his knowledge and friendly manner I purchased the item I was enquiring about. Would definitely recommend.

  • NIKKI MANLEY

Absolutely legendary level of customer service. I have never been so impressed! We came in sort of knowing what we wanted and we were given the most incredible advice and attention. Wish I could leave more than 5 stars. Thanks so much to Michael 1 and 2, Adam and Jack!

  • helen clarke

I made a phone call to Jaycar and was so impressed with the service by Simon. He was so helpful and even told me where to find the product I was after when I was to drop into the store the next day. I haven't had service like this anywhere in quite a long time, cheers!

  • Nick Cowan (Damnedfish)

They try to be helpful as much as possible. However Jaycar are less about component knowledge, and are more of a shop for electronic goods than components. Like resistors and capacitors, and prefer microcontrollers and smart home. I suppose that's the market.

  • Brodie Harrison (lostepoc)

While I get that retail has its tedious moments if your staff (young Jordon from another staff members account) are audibly categorizing the customers into derogatory groups then its time for your retail store to disappear into the rest of

  • jamesa1995

Rude staff, guy with the tattoos especially. Wasnt very helpful when asking a question and just walked off when I was speaking to him when asking if they had a certain cable. Was pretty uninterested in helping, couldn't care less.
