Danger, Do Not Operate. I have an unsafe car stacker that electricians refuse to connect. AAQ abandoned me because I left a one star review. What happened is that I paid for a car stacker plus $1,800 for installation. Their contract installers turned up and admitted they had never done one before. They tried for five days, then disappeared without a trace. There was no handover, no acceptance testing, and no permanent electrical cabling (the installers used an extension cord!). I emailed AAQ and asked has there been a misunderstanding? Are you sending an electrician to complete the installation

AAQ has come recommended by others in the mechanical trade. It is the first time we have used AAQ and they have gone above and beyond to say the least. AAQ is very honest and easy company to use. We received our new hoists within days of ordering them. I can recommend this company to the anyone looking for equipment and be confident you will get a honest no problem attitude. Well done and best regards Steve

AAQ came with the highest recommendation, and having not dealt with them myself before, I can say they are the real deal. I ordered 2 x new hoists + installation, one HD overfloor and one HD clearfloor. Patrick and Kelly were easy to deal with, knowledgeable on their products, and promptly locked in install dates.
Mick came out to install each hoist and I was extremely happy with his professionalism and quality of work. He was organised, punctual and very efficient. Being a technical person myself, I am pretty picky with my equipment & in wanting things installed right, but I need not have worried
