Reviews With Photos

I was a co-owner of The Brownstone, which was located on Main Street in Westport, CT from 2005 to 2018. For those who might remember, us we were known for our customer service, which included gift wrapping. This is my first review of a business. I regret is is a negative review of the salesperson, Benny Mantz from whom we purchased a Sub Zero refrigerator, Miele dishwasher and Viking range. From the start Mr. Mantz came across as disingenuous. He did not listen, and was inconsistent in returning phone calls. Our refrigerator and dishwasher were delivered and installed before our range. Today, Saturday, our range was delivered. Our old range was removed from our house. However, Benny failed to follow through to confirm the installation could be done on Saturday. So, we have our new, partly disassembled range sitting in the middle of our kitchen and disconnected from the gas line. Therefore, it is safe to say the range is inoperable. Benny would not return my call regarding this glitch. Professional salespeople speak to their customers when things go awry. Benny did, however, email me to blame his operations manager for the glitch. Those who remember The Brownstone, will remember our sales team partners, Celeste and Mariana. While they were not perfect, they did their upmost to prevent glitches. Yes, they followed through from start to with every order. But what set them apart from other salespeople was their genuine respect for their customers, their desire to build relationships with their customers. and their love for our business. When a glitch happened, they picked up the phone and called their customer. Our team of three would have paid for the meals that resulted from the lack of a working range, and we would have refunded our customer's range installation fee. Would Benny do this? No, he would not.

Very poor sales experience today. Slow to reply. Unfriendly. Surprising because they used to be pretty good.

Clarke Service

If Clarke gets bad reviews on Yelp, this proves Yelp is just for whiny consumers and their time is…read moreplayed out. They have the best customer service of any company I've ever dealt with (and I've been a dealer for 20 years in their industry, I've dealt with every brand) All the other manufacturers customer service gets worse, and Clarke gets better and better. I've seen them do the RIGHT THING every time, even if it costs them money out of pocket, they do right by their customers every single time. You get what you pay for, and if that item needs service over it's 25-30 year life span, I've seen Clarke fix things out of warranty for free because they felt like the product shouldn't have failed. I've seen them fix something that broke within a 24 hour time frame, which no service company has pulled off in the many times I've had that scenario play out. They consider the customers needs and MAKE IT HAPPEN, no question about it.

Working with Clarke Service has been one of the WORST customer service experiences I have ever had…read more It's been a 15 month long saga turned nightmare. They came out in the early Fall of 2021 to service the freezer in our Sub-Zero which had stopped working. The tech told us it needed a new compressor which would cost over $1,500 to replace. We paid the $170 diagnostic fee and told the tech we'd have to save up for the work. We spent a year using our old freezer in the basement while saving up and then called Clarke to come back out for the repair. After a few minutes the technician told us he made misdiagnosis - the freezer had a leak somewhere that made it "un-repairable". Then he actually asked me for another $190 for "re-diagnosing". When I objected, he told me he would let the office know what happened and they would probably refund it to me. When I asked him if we could talk to them first he gave me the number but said he had other calls to get to. I called from the next room and waited on hold for 20 minutes but then came back and agreed to pay him but asked that he please be sure to document the ticket. That was mid Aug - they received no info from the tech so it took me 3 months and 6 phone calls to Customer service before finally getting the refund in mid November. Frustrated with Clarke and questioning the competence of their technician, I decided to get a second opinion. When the next tech came out he opened the grill and immediately asked what happened to the compressor - it was gone! So we wasted another $150 diagnostic fee since there was nothing they could diagnose, then called Clarke to tell them their tech had essentially stolen our compressor. After two follow up calls we never received a response. I ended up calling Sub Zero Corporate to submit a formal complaint and worked with Jack. He reached out to Clarke twice, and told me to expect a call from the Service Manager, but instead, I ended up getting a call from the tech who had been here. He admitted to taking the compressor but tried to say he was actually helping us out so we wouldn't have to dispose of it. This was obviously a lie since he had told us it was unrepairable and we'd have to replace the $-5k unit and dispose of the whole one anyway. He even tried to say he would bring us a broken compressor if we wanted. Now fuming and frantic since we are hosting Christmas and had anticipated having this working h now, I called back to Jacks at Sub Zero who called Clarke again and finally spoke with the owner or manager. Sub Zero offered to cover parts and some labor for a sealed system rebuild if I paid another $500 with no guarantee it would work. Reluctant to use the same company, I looked for another one but shockingly there are no other authorized Sub Zero service companies available in Fairfield County, CT so I had no choice but to accept. They called me back and raised the cost to $540 and said they can't get here until mid-January. It's hard to tell whether any of this has made its way up to management at Clarke so I asked again to have Joe, the service manager, please give me a call. My only hope is that he will hear about this and make things right, but as of yet, I have not heard from him.

We called this company after our dryer crapped out. We had some issues with our dryer before and…read morehad used another appliance repair company in East Norwalk. The problems were temporarily solved, but usually never on the first shot. There was always a follow up visit or a missing part that the servicemen did not have on hand. Since we're not from the area, we just kept going back to the same repair company because we didn't know any better. After trying to get said Norwalk appliance repair company on the phone, no one picked up when they were supposed to have been opened at 8 am. Then after a voicemail and finally a third attempt at eventually speaking to someone, my wife was on hold for 20 minutes. When she spoke with customer service, they said they couldn't help us based on her description of what was wrong with our dryer. When she asked for a referral, she was told to try Google. I don't want to name the other company, but like they said, you could probably Google it. That was the last straw. My wife called Dobson based on a recommendation from another service provider after a bit of a wild goose chase trying to find someone who could help us. They were available to come the next day, even as it was a 2-person job, since the washer and dryer were stacked. They showed up when they said they would. They wore masks the whole time. They diagnosed the problem. They pointed out what was wrong. They fixed issues that the prior service men neglected to fix the first time, in order to ensure our washer and dryer ran smoother. Apparently, the dryer vent wasn't hooked up properly, which may or may not have been the prior service providers fault, but Dobson made the fix nonetheless. They cleaned our ducts, as we asked. Then they fixed the dryer and tested and then re-tested to ensure it worked properly. We highly recommend Dobson for reliable service that solve problems the first time around.

You get what you pay for and this is a prime example of professionally done. They spent over 45…read moreminutes cleaning my dryer vent. I live in a condo and the vent flowed through the roof. So they went on the roof to thoroughly clean the air flow. They even took photos as they went along. They cleaned behind my dryer, they removed the panels and vents on the dryer which were covered with lint and dust. They even vacuumed behind the dryer. Where several socks were hiding:) They were very neat and accommodating. Well worth the cost. Highly recommend.

Being a new homeowner in Connecticut and getting jerked around from most of the HVAC companies here…read moreI am so grateful for Reo appliances! My HVAC was running but was no longer heating my home properly at which point Mike came to give me a service call without me having any contract with them in 24hrs in January! Him and Joe diagnose the problem, gave me an option of a repair or putting in a whole new unit which is what I chose not only did they find out immediately if it was in stock but they gave me temporary heat for the week it took to return with the new unit which they installed promptly and left my home spotless. They are easy to reach the receptionist at their office is lovely everyone got back to me they consistently and efficiently provided amazing service.

The first appointment was in August but they had assigned the wrong tech, so they cancelled the day of. Today 9/14 between 2-5pm was supposed to be the correct tech (Mike). Now 6:10 pm and there has been no call, and when we tried to call around 3: pm there was no answer. Wasn't there a law requiring a 24 hour notice of cancellation or was that my imagination, maybe I should send this to the DA.
