    Well, I just bought a brand new John Deere 1023E. 2021 model. It delivered Wednesday 18 Nov. 2020…read moreand I've been putting her to work ever since. Also got the John Deere R120 bucket loader, Frontier Box Scraper, and the iMatch John Deere three point hitch Quick Connect. Yes, I'm as giddy as a school boy. I've dealt with John Deere and some other tractors since I was a child being born on the farm/cattle ranch, but it's been many a decade since I was back there. This brings back many a fond memory. Sawyer Reifel is my salesman. Did a wonderful job setting things up the way I wanted them. He must have the patients of Job in just putting up with me anyway. At 60 years old, a bit crotchety, and permanently disabled, I couldn't afford to have anything go wrong. I needed to have everything just so in order to handle this due to my back being pretty much gone so anything that made the job easier was a major plus. Sawyer made sure it all happened perfectly. Primary use is clearing brush, landscaping, and weed abatement. I have no need for a mower deck as you aren't going to have much for a lawn in the high desert mountains where sage brush, scorpions, and rattlesnakes are the common of the day. However, if you're looking to clear grease plant, the dry desert grass that creates a massive wildfire hazard each year, and groom your desert course sand into something that looks respectable, John Deere, Kern Machinery, and Sawyer Reifel has it all. (That's me in the picture on the tractor with Sawyer next to me when they made delivery) The other primary use is to run up a three point hitch mounted PTO driven 10KW generator for those times when the power goes out. Believe me, when the power goes out you don't want to mess around with manhandling a generator with a very bad back. That iMatch Quick Connect comes in mighty handy. I'm also looking forward to putting her to work when I get ready to put in the new front porch and the west porch. The John Deere 1023E is perfect for carving things out when you get ready to pour cement. I can get the security and pleasure of having done the job myself and save on paying for someone else to do it at the same time. The prep that is. No, I'll not be doing the cement work. Leave that to the pros. Anyway, my new tractor has been performing perfectly, just like I would expect from a John Deere. The hydrostatic drive is sweet. I'm used to good old fashion shifting and even the original hydrostatic drive from back in the International Harvester days of the late 1960's when we had a IH 1266. That hydrostatic drive has improved a lot over the years, but it's main claim to fame is the smoothness for which you can operate the tractor, comfort, and it's a whole lot easier on both the operator and whatever equipment you are using over the standard shift. John Deere made certain to capitalize on that and did so with flying colors. John Deere green. Even the tractor itself handles comfortably and with my back I can usually tell you whenever I run over an ant hill, but, surprisingly, this tractor is smooth to operate. It makes the work very comfortable. Suffice it to say that I'm very pleased with John Deere, Kern Machinery, and Sawyer Reifel. They make a great team. Nothing Runs Like A Deere. PS. This wouldn't be complete without an honorable mention for Trent Goehring. Well done. John Campbell Weldon, Ca.

    We bought our tractor here in 2022. The experience of my purchase and the delivery was great! I…read morereceived enough information to start working right away. Through the years I haven't needed anything other than basic maintenance and she is still running strong. There was a recall on my tractor and I was notified and kept informed until they had the parts to schedule the repair. Always helpful, knowledgeable and friendly staff. Thinking of an upgrade.... Now that my needs have evolved from maintenance to farming. Looking forward to round two with this group!

    Initially called the business to get my John Deere tractor serviced. I called three times and was…read moreanswered by a receptionist who told me someone would call me back. No one called. I went in to the business to find out why I was not getting a call back. They have me some story about the service guy not doing his job. I set up an appointment for a technician to come out. The appointment time was for 9 am. I specifically asked what time they would be there as I took time off of work. 1015 rolled around and no one came. I called and was told they would be there soon. After another hour, no one came. I called again and was told they would be out. At 1:00 no one had been out. I called and cancelled. Horrible customer service. If I knew this is what I would experience, I would have never bought my tractor there and gave them my business. Would never recommend them.

    I went into the store the other day to get some sledgehammer to kill nut grass and none of the…read moreemployees that were on the floor knew what that was. Finally one of the employees found an empty box and said it would take three months to get more. I also asked if they had any goal herbicide and none of the employees knew what goal herbicide was. I can't believe these employees work in a farm supply store. I ordered my sledgehammer on Amazon and got it in two days.

    BEWARE OF RETURN POLICY!!!! I've been purchasing stuff here…read moresince this location opened. Not anymore! I bought misters, line and a sprinkler for the lawn and bushes on 7/17. After three days, the oscillating sprinkler I purchased was getting stuck in one direction and was not oscillating. I took it back to exchange it today 7/21 and was told "no", I couldn't exchange it because it was working. I told the sales rep "why would I drive 20 miles to replace a sprinkler if it was working?? He took it outside to test it and only put about 5lbs of pressure to it. Of course it's going to work at that low of pressure!! I'm running 45lbs. I told him he could keep the sprinkler and I would just go to Lowes because it wasn't worth my time arguing with him. I am cancelling my account and will do my business down the street at Lowes or Home Depot. You just lost a 20+ year customer! Their return policy is "at their discretion". B*ll Sh*t!! No wonder these mom and pop stores are going out of business.

While…read moreevacuated to the greater area, I had time to kill so decided to pop in here with family and tackle some home projects. Also, this is where we bought our smoker from back in Nov.! Their team at the Garden World is friendly and service-oriented, with fast diagnoses and part repairs and I'm told they have a much better turnaround time than local competitors. They carry a big selection of Stihl, Husqvarna, and Toro tools, with both gas and electric options available. If they don't have what you need, they can usually get it for you. They're also an approved warranty and repair center for brands like Honda, Kawasaki, Ryobi - possibly others but these are the ones coming top of mind. They also handle battery repair and battery warranty repairs which is why we stopped in. Another bonus: they have a great selection of Green Mountain Grills along with plenty of refill pellets to keep you stocked up. I actually picked up a cover for my smoker on my latest visit as I hadn't initially thought to get one. They were sold out of bbq mits but did have other bbq accoutrements. Whether it's tools, repairs, or grilling gear, this place has you covered! Highly recommend. Also! They have QR codes for a discount on lawn care so if you are looking for a new landscaping service, stop in and get $50 off.

Then they said they fired the mechanic that made this suggestion and the next mechanic decided they didn't need the parts. I paid $161 dollars brought it home and it didn't start. Looked at the fuel level and saw it was low. Filled it up, and it still didn't start. Took it back to them. They said I put in bad fuel, but it didn't start with the fuel that they put in the engine and sent me home with. They drained the fuel and wanted to charge me another $61, for something I already paid for and it still wasn't working. Super frustrating. Would not recommend this company due to their inability to repair a lawnmower in a timely manner and for trying to charge more for a repair that wasn't completed.
