📺 Hisense Replaces Panasonic — And Why It’s a Smart Upgrade
For years, Panasonic TV held a strong reputation in New Zealand homes for reliability, picture accuracy, and long-lasting performance. But as technology evolves, so do the brands leading the market. In recent years, Hisense has stepped forward as one of the strongest and most reliable TV manufacturers, offering impressive quality at a price point that makes sense for most households.
If you’ve recently replaced a Panasonic TV with a Hisense model, you’ve likely already noticed the difference — and in many ways, it’s an upgrade worth celebrating.
Why Hisense Has Become a Top Choice
Hisense has invested heavily in modern display technology, smart features, and build quality. The result is a TV lineup that consistently punches above its price range.
Key strengths of Hisense:
• Excellent picture quality with vibrant colours and strong contrast
• UHD 4K and QLED options that rival premium brands
• Smooth motion handling, great for sports and gaming
• Built‑in Smart TV features (VIDAA or Google TV) with fast, intuitive navigation
• Strong reliability backed by solid warranties
• Outstanding value for money
Hisense has essentially taken the space Panasonic once dominated — offering dependable TVs that perform well for everyday Kiwi households.

Sleeper planter refurbishment.
Howdy Neighbours
We came across these newish treated pine sleepers from TrustWood Timbers. These sleepless are great for your vege planters and general planting as the treatment used is safe for all plants and does not leach into the soil. Unlike Mac sleepers they come with a 50 year guarantee so they will outlast the more traditional Mac sleepers. Very straight and diamentionaly correct so great to work with.
We have just completed this job in Parnell using these where we have swapped out the rotten Mac sleepers for new TrustWood Sleepers 👍
