24.01.2022 Just letting my customers know that Ive taken on some extra responsibilities, so Im spending a lot of time on the road and cannot always answer the phone! Please leave a message or text me and I will get back to you within 24 hours. (If you are in the Eastern states please let me know otherwise if I call you in the evening WA time, I might be disturbing your slumber!) Same excellent service, just allow two weeks turn around time in my shop.... Thanks! Brett - 04 0606 5053

24.01.2022 Thank you for the continued patience! Seems like my holiday is a distant memory, but the effect is still here - the mother-of-all-backlogs! Im chipping away at them, and in the mean time more keep coming in the door. Must be doing something right. So I apologise for the long turn-around times - Im looking at ways to improve this, but I wont compromise on the level of service, or quality of my work. (Ive asked the guys at my part-time job for some un-paid time off - thatll... help). Once again - anybody that has an urgent situation (for example I have some customers with mobility challenges) let me know and Ill try work some magic... (-B

24.01.2022 Just random pics of the hundreds of robots that crossed the Nullabor safely with Pat the Postman (Bruce the Postie?)

23.01.2022 Over east again for a few days. Damn, that backlog is building - Ill have to knuckle down when I get back... (-B

23.01.2022 Just an up-front apology from a dinosaur: * Im not a fB user! * Given the amount of junk that fB sends me to try change that fact, I have them routed into the cold blackness of outer cyber-space.... I do try to have a look at the inbox most days, but messaging me on here is third prize - best to call me, or text me and Ill call you. No matter what your question is, Ill probably have to ask you four or five questions before I can begin to answer you, so this is always best done on the phone. Also, after talking to me on the phone you will have a pretty good idea of the type of person that I am, and that is central to my business model and why I get a high percentage of repeat business. Cheers Brett 04 0606 5053

22.01.2022 Off tomorrow for a "long weekend" to visit my daughter and grandson. Back at the grindstone Tuesday. Ill post a pic when I get back. (-B

21.01.2022 Off to visit my aged parents in the beautiful city of Cape Town. Back in 2 weeks. As always, it is best to contact me by text on 0406065053 as I dont do facebook... (-8

21.01.2022 WEEKEND OFF! {Sorry, I know I dont post on here nearly enough! Im not one for mooching on fB at all. I DO look in most days to check if there is a message, but it is really much more effective if you text or call me on 0406065053.} So... as mentioned I will not be working on Robots at all this weekend. I would love to tell you that Ill be chilling at a winery down south, but actually my trusty (but rusty) workhorse Honda HRV requires attention. After 345,000 hard-working k...m the head gasket has gone. Actually it is still running like a champ, and if it wasnt for the coolant disappearing rapidly (some of it appearing in the oil) you wouldnt know. Thanks to one of my robot customers (-8 that works in the industry, I was able to get a good used engine (145,000 km? Barely run in!) and the big swap is happening this weekend. Hoping I dont find any nasty surprises that mean I cannot finish the job. (Pretty sure, but I wouldnt put any big money on it!) Ill post a pic or two for those that are really bored! q-B

21.01.2022 Ummm... Oops?! http://www.theguardian.com//south-korean-womans-hair-eaten

17.01.2022 Just a quick heads-up (and apology) to my customers... I have had a bit of a rush of machines in, and also had a small set-back recently. All this book-ending with the festive season and on top of that I recently had the opportunity to spend some time in Adelaide with my grandson (isnt he a cutie?!) Unfortunately all this means I have an invasion force of robots in my house, and Im doing my best to get to all of them! Apologies again, and think you for your patience! Qualit...y of service will not be compromised! Brett

17.01.2022 Spilled a cup full of sugar making morning coffee. #SomeDaysStartLikeThat My original #Roomba ("Aunty Jo" - named for reasons that are not family friendly) to the rescue! #9YearsAndStillKillingIt #iRobot

16.01.2022 Thanks for all the repeat business! I value the "votes of confidence". A bit busy again here, but Im keeping at it as fast as I can! Feel free to contact me if you have any questions! Brett

16.01.2022 I am busy with redoing my Web-Page! The interesting thing is that Im using Bookmeld: www.bookmeld.com This enables me to edit it live and on-line, and in small steps as I go along. Im still learning, but its pretty damn good for people that want to manage their own on-line content!... Check it out (but remember its a "work in progress") www.qubot.com.au q-B

15.01.2022 Thank you to my customers for being patient! I have had my folks visiting for the last 5 weeks, and things have been going a bit slowly round here. There is now a bit of a backlog, but Im back on it from today, so I should get on top of it in the next week or two! (-8 #qualitytimeispriceless #80plusandstillgoingstrong

15.01.2022 I became a twit! (-8 Joined Twitter... Follow me @Qubot1 I will try have interesting and relevant content - I really need to do more with this page and Social Media generally.... Cheers

14.01.2022 Hi All I'm away for a few days' R&R. I'll be "back at it" from Monday the 22nd. I am still contactable by text if you have questions, but please be patient - I'll be in another time zone. I'll not be able to check fB messages though... Cheers... Brett - Qubot 04 0606 5053 See more

11.01.2022 Back at the wheel after a few weeks away. I will get to all the messages and eMails in the next couple of days, but as always, dont hesitate to call...

10.01.2022 I will be working through the festive season, though things might get a bit slower as I'll have family visiting... As always (with apologies to all you fB regulars) messaging me on fB is not a good way to contact me! Rather contact me by call/text on 0406065053. It can take up to a few days before I might get onto fB ( < I'm not a fan, can you tell?) In any case most people have a question, and inboxing me with a question on here usually means I have to ask you a number of q...uestions, each will affect how I answer your question. Rather than sitting typing all my questions, if-thens and yes-buts, I'm just going to ask you for your number so I can call you to discuss... So if you really want to message me on here, then please send me your number and ask me to call you in connection with your robot and I'll get to you in a day or two. But rather text me, and I'll usually call within an hour or two. Cheers, and here's hoping you all have a fabulous festive season!!! (-B

10.01.2022 Just a quick note to my wonderful customers - Ill be taking advantage of the WA public holiday and taking a trip to Adelaide to visit my grandson - Skype is great and all, but I cannot wait to spend some time with the little monkey! So sorry, I know my service is slow at the best of times, but please be patient: I do my best for each and every robot - I know how much these critters mean to you guys!

08.01.2022 Hi All Im away for a few days R&R. Ill be "back at it" from Monday the 22nd. I am still contactable by text if you have questions, but please be patient - Ill be in another time zone. Ill not be able to check fB messages though... Cheers... Brett - Qubot 04 0606 5053 See more

08.01.2022 Merry Christmas and a happy holiday season to all my customers! We will not shut down as such, but things might just take a little longer over the festive season - if you have an urgent issue and need rapid service just mention it, and Ill see what I can do! q-B

07.01.2022 Botvac prepared for that quintessential Ozzie rite-of-passage... A trip accross the Nullabor!

07.01.2022 We might be spending more time at home, but dont forget to have your Roomba serviced. This one is a bit "past due"... #BitGrubby #PleaseServiceMe

06.01.2022 To all my loyal and supportive customers. Ill be away for a couple of weeks down-time. Not saying where Im going, but it rhymes with "Diving the Great Barrier Reef"! Bucket list stuff! Most of the time there will be no phone signal, but text or message me here and Ill get to all the queries in the days after arriving back (~16th).... Happy Easter to you all! (-B

06.01.2022 Thanks for the support of my new and repeat customers in the Eastern States! I am confident the extra care I take to get your machine 100% is worth the extra effort required to send your machine through the post.

06.01.2022 As mentioned below, Im OFF! Fly out tomorrow night for 4 weeks. Been looking forward to it, but it has been hectic getting all the robots out the door. Just finishing the last two tonight, and there are two more still waiting to be collected. There will be somebody here on-and-off so best not to attempt to drop off unless you have communicated with me first.... Postage items will still be received (its a different address) but best is dont put any in the mail until +/- 15 April, else they will just lie unopened for weeks - not good for your battery. I can be contacted by text (only) on the usual number, but bear in mind Ill be in a different time zone, and have much in the way of fabulous distractions, so response time might be slow... Will be back-at-it in the last week in April. Kind regards! Brett

06.01.2022 Qubot is OPEN! Thank you to my regular customers and quite a few new ones, business is going okay. People staying home are maybe paying attention to the floor and either noticing that the Roomba is not quite 100%, or finally getting around to having it repaired or serviced... Its not very different from usual, you can drop off your machine or, with appropriate distancing Ill grab it from you. My usual preference is for internet payment, but if you need to, I will accept cas...h and wash it with my hands right away. (Thank goodness for waterproof Ozzie cash!) As always do not hesitate to contact me should you have any questions! (Best to call/text - Im not on fB often!) Brett 04 0606 5053

05.01.2022 Hope all Qubot customers are having a happy and safe festive season! Limited services continue over this period, but Ill get back at it properly in the new year!

05.01.2022 Just a reminder Im out of the country, but Ill be back in a few days and Ill get to all the queries and reply to all the messages soon... Brett

04.01.2022 Hoping all my customers had a great festive season and the year will bring much joy. Ill be away till the end of January. I will still be contactable by SMS, but please hold off on dropping off robots till February. Will be good to spend some quality time with my folks - deep in their 80s and still both fit and well. I am blessed. Cheers

04.01.2022 CYBORG MODE! Neato Botvac aceing a test after repairs...

02.01.2022 Spent the weekend setting up the new workshop: bench, shelving, power etc. #gettingorganised #thankstowonderfulhelp

02.01.2022 Looking ahead, I have a trip away with my girlfriend for 4 weeks (starting the last week in April) and I have probably enough work to keep me busy till then, so at the moment Im making notes as to who to call after the trip... Of course if there is an urgent case (I know how much these machines mean to my wheelchair and limited mobility customers!!) please call anyway and you know Ill make a plan to help you. There will be somebody to receive both posted and drop-off machin...es throughout, but best to keep it on charge at your house till +/- 17 April, then pop it in the post / drop-off box. For those interested, were going to Africa, and apart from a week sight-seeing well be spending the time with my sisters and my parents including - get this: Mom & Dads 60th anniversary!! (Better start writing my speech!) (-8 Apologies again - I am trying to get quicker turn-around times generally, and I have some plans for achieving that in the future. Quality of service will not be compromised.

01.01.2022 High mileage Botvac bumpers can become unresponsive. 1. Micro-switches become "tired" (click but do not always make contact) > replace 2. Plastic "tabs" become worn > MacGyver fix with metal tabs Sorted, and ready to Rock and Roll!

01.01.2022 Some of the things found in machines - this is the reason why these things need servicing!

01.01.2022 Phew! Awesome holiday! Drank too much, ate too much, spent heaps of quality time with the folks. All the good stuff! Back with a thud! While away, the list of people I needed to call re robots got to 27! I have still not got to all of you, Im sorry - working through the list, but already have ~10 robots on the floor, with the first few already going out. Ill find a pic or two from the hols to post up here. (-8
