Late yesterday evening I stopped in to purchase a washer and dryer. The customer service was horrible from the start. One of the guys (the short one) acted as if he barely knew English. My husband said excuse, we're looking to buy a washer and dryer. The guy said WHAT! I found that to be rude for a salesperson to say to a customer who is trying to inquirer about their products. I was ready to walk but my husband insisted that the prices were low enough and to let him handle it, so I did. The lady who also worked there was bilingual Spanish and English. She was courteous and tried to assist my daughter and I by answering our questions politely.
We picked a washer and dryer. Then noticed the cord was missing to the dryer so we selected a different dryer. Note that there were stickers on the washers and dryers that listed basic specs. We ask about warranty. We were told that there would only be 1 year warranty but we could pay $150 3yr. extended warranty. I asked for a copy. The guy fiddled around and then began acting like he didn't understand so I explained that I wanted the warranty to the lady and then she translated to the guy. The guy had a little boy there who was about 7- or 8 and he was trying to translate speaking English very well. My husband again decides we will just pay for the items. I was uncomfortable and felt as if we should run because the business was coming across very shady and not legitimate (like scammers).
We leave the store just before closing on a Friday night, 11/29/2024. When we get to my daughters' home before removing the dryer from our truck we noticed that the dryer is gas. The place where my daughter is staying doesn't have a gas hook up to install the dryer.
We never unloaded the dryer. We took the dryer back to the store to exchange it for an electric dryer. The same guy was not nice and told us we could t exchange the dryer. He wasn't flexible at all. We were leaving the Virginia area to head back to New Jersey that same night and couldn't wait until Monday. The original packing was intact. He ended up calling a lady who spoke English. She told my husband that she would try to help with exchanging but it would have to wait until Monday.
Then the guy said if we had come back to the store by 12noon Saturday he
would have been able to help. Now he is making up the rules as he goes. It was 1:03pm when we arrived at the store.
We are now stuck with this gas dryer. We still needed a dryer so we had to go buy one at a reputable business. The lower price ultimately cost us 3x's the price. Go to Lowes they were having a Black Friday sale and the service was professional and quick.
Horrible Service, layers about warranties, unprofessional, and if you don't speak Spanish definitely don't go here because the short Sales guy is rude, not customer friendly and the business is all around shady. read more
