Dont engage with them for Special Needs Children Worst service ever! I would never use this company. Escalated a complaint to a manager, then to COO. I received absolute disgusting service, disrespect and completely unprofesional. Sales and there staff are of importance to them, not clients needs! Called twice too, with no return call.

Bought a 2 in1 walker wheelchair from… Bought a 2 in1 walker wheelchair from lane Cove, footrest broke after 2 days, emailed issue with pictures to showroom, Response from showroom was sent issue to service team. Tried following up status, two separate ppl replied with same note, issue with service team. Called service team, advised I am in queue, no clear advice on when would be resolved. On the meantime I have an unusable wheel chair limiting access. This is not good enough, I even suggested I pay for a replacement until issue resolved.

Poor service, faulty product Unfortunately I am forced to write an unsatisfactory review on ILS, due to the recent experiences my elderly mother and I have had with the company. It is with great disappointment and frustration that I find myself compelled to write this letter of complaint, as the level of service we have received from ILS has fallen far below any reasonable standard. In September 2023, we made the decision to purchase a new walker from ILS for my elderly mother, hoping to provide her with the support and safety she needs to navigate her daily life. Unfortunately, our experience with ILS has been nothing short of a nightmare. In January of this year, we reached out to request a service call for a handbrake repair on the walker. Little did we know, this was only the beginning of our ordeal. Almost two weeks later, in late January, one of the wheels of the walker unexpectedly fell off, posing a serious risk to my mother's safety. Despite numerous service requests made thereafter, it took an egregious amount of time—almost two months—before the initial wheel repair was finally addressed under warranty in late March. However, our relief was short-lived. Less than two weeks after the wheel was supposedly repaired, it fell off again, leaving my mother in a vulnerable and distressing situation. The fact that this happened not once, but twice, is utterly unacceptable, especially considering the high risk of falls my mother faces. As a company that specializes in providing aids for individuals with disabilities, ILS has failed miserably in fulfilling its duty to ensure the safety and well-being of its customers. The lack of reliability and effectiveness in your products and service support has not only inconvenienced us but has also endangered my mother's health and safety on multiple occasions. I cannot in good conscience recommend ILS to anyone in need of a walker or service support. The level of incompetence and disregard for customer satisfaction demonstrated throughout this ordeal is simply appalling. It is my sincere hope that you take immediate and decisive action to rectify these issues and prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future. My mother and I deserve nothing less than the assurance that she can rely on her walker for stability and support without fear of further accidents or delays. We are now awaiting a prompt response and resolution to this matter.

Bad service, greed-driven, overpriced products, My son bought me expensive knee scooter at a ridiculous cost of $350 (they sell them at Bunnings for $169) which was actually unusable due to its lack of manoeuvrability and how uncomfortable it was to use. I did not end up using it but was unable to return it within “7 days” as I was immobilised from my injury and could not drive. The manager was unwilling to accept a return even though the product had not been used and tried to quote invalid medical facts (to a doctor )as his excuse for not providing a refund. As a doctor I am appalled at such greed-driven behaviour and poor service and will not be recommending Independent Living Specialists to any of my patients again.

EXCELLENT Service at ILS Ballina NSW ILS Ballina NSW. The staff at ILS went above and beyond to help us make the best of a bad situation. Following an accident the day before our holiday, we needed to hire mobility equipment to be able to attend a music festival. The friendliest staff ever at Ballina made it comfortable, realistic and easy for us to get the equipment we needed, offered to come back on a public holiday if needed and generally made us feel positive about our situation. The equipment was in perfect condition and worked extremely well over our hire period. Can't thank the team enough
