  • Val N.Very professional, kind and friendly. He didn’t waste any time and he went right to work in completing the tasks that I needed to have done effortlessly. I am very happy with what was accomplished! Thank you again, Mohamed!Heavy Lifting
  • Masood D.AB is very helpful and knowledgeableHeavy Lifting
  • Jenny B.Punctual and fast worker!Heavy Lifting
  • D. P.The 5 stars are for the tasker Julian. If I was reviewing the platform (taskrabbit.com) I would give zero stars in this case because I have wasted a lot of time on it. I am web-based and do not have the app, have been using taskrabbit practically from its inception. It has gone up and down over the years. Repeat: Julian five (5) stars taskrabbit / IKEA zero stars. This is partly tongue in cheek, I’ll leave it at that. Now I can tip Julian if I wish. In my view the tip should be based on what Julian gets, but if I let the system do it, it would base the percentage on what Taskrabbit gets. I think. I could be wrong. I may remove this “review” in a bit, or perhaps taskrabbit will vet it, which would be good.Heavy Lifting
