    I went to Bray&Scarff based on positive reviews and the fact that they had their own installers and service techs, which was appealing to me. I got the dishwasher, but ended up with no install or service package. Overall - 1. I made an appointment like they recommended on the website to shop, but the sales team didn't check my name and seemed surprised that I was there since someone else walked in looking for a dishwasher before I did. I didn't understand the point of making an appointment. 2. My sales rep (Stacey) had enough knowledge for me to make a decision that I felt good about. She told me the installers would need about 34" to install the dishwasher. I had my husband measure at home and send photos, which I showed to Stacey and was told that there was enough space to install it. I moved forward and purchased the dishwasher, installation and 5 year service plan. 3. When the installer came a week later, he looked at our space and said he didn't have enough room to get the appliance in and that we would have to raise our cabinets/counter 1/4 of an inch in order for him to install it. He left and said he has his son's birthday party to go to. 4. I emailed my sales rep, who told me the installers are very strict about needing 34" to install a GE dishwasher. I mentioned that I showed her pictures of our measurements ahead of time and she assured me it would work, otherwise, why would I have purchased the appliance? Instead, she told me I can look at an ADA dishwasher or another brand IF they don't need 34'" for installation. 5. I hired my own installer, who told me he could install the appliance no problem, and according to the GE manual, we did not need 34 inches for installation as B&S told me 6. I cancelled installation AND the 5 year service plan from B & S since the store said they would not service the washer if there was not 34" clearance. When I cancelled the service plan, my sales rep told me, "Well, we wouldn't have had any of our guys service in your area anyway. It would have been whatever the plan could find to come out to your area." It's interesting that wasn't disclosed ahead of time. 7. When the dishwasher was delivered the second time, it was scheduled for 1-5pm in the afternoon as confirmed in my email and text message. On the day of delivery, I received a voicemail at 7:30am that he would be there by 9am, which was not the time I confirmed. I had a medical appointment in the morning and couldn't stay home in the morning. I wasn't able to reach anyone at the local store, the website, or the national line to let them know the delivery time is incorrect and wouldn't work. I emailed the sales rep before her shift started to tell her of the mix-up. 8. The delivery guy came at 9am and called me because I wasn't home. I explained he came at the wrong time, and so he came back at 5:00 that afternoon. 9. When he delivered the machine, he stated again that there is no way we can get the dishwasher in without raising the cabinets, cutting the old one into pieces to get out, and cutting our new floor. He also told us the sales rep should not have told me they can install it based on my measurements, and I should have paid $75 for a pre-inspection where the installers could verify if they can make it work so he would not have to waste gas or his time. Again, I didn't know this was an option and it was not offered to me at the store 7. My own installer was able to get the dishwasher in by himself, no problems at all, and he did NOT need to cut the floor, raise the counters or the cabinets to do so. I was looking for an appliance with installation and service package, and I certainly didn't get installation or a service package, and the whole ordeal took me 3 weeks to resolve with my OWN installer. I would will not be returning to B & S if I ever need another appliance.

    My experiences with Bray and Scarff have been less than desirable. We purchased a GE washer/dryer from them in September 2021 to be delivered when we moved into our new home mid October 2021. The sales person promised white-glove service. She raved about how they are a family owned local business with excellent customer service and white-glove delivery. Great! We like to support local business and that sold us over buying at a chain like Home Depot or Best Buy. That's where the good experience ended. The first installation team's truck broke down and they arrived 5 hours past the window of time they scheduled. There was very poor communication on my new window of time so I sat in an empty house ALL day waiting for the installers. The installers that finally came to my house entered my home with disgustingly dirty shoes. Mind you, my home was completely brand new, empty, and my own family had not yet stayed a night in it. The installer refused to take his shoes off and said his company did not use booties. The installer's hands were so dirty he literally left hand prints on my walls when he touched them. We had not even moved into the house yet and I was not thrilled about how dirty this installer was, but whatever, right? Just install my washer and dryer, please. He took one look at the polymer push-fit outlet box the builder used and he refused to install it. He said my house was "shitty" and the builder cut corners by using "shitty" products. He told me I would need to replace the unit to brass and he would not install my washer unless I did so. He had his manager on speaker phone who was also saying my builder used "shitty" products and they were not installing unless I replaced them with brass. So, I should void my 2 year builder warranty on my brand new home because you want to install only on brass pipes???? I literally lost my mind. I had not even moved into my home yet and other people were calling my brand new home in Urbana "shitty". Super unprofessional to say this outloud, even if in your head you think Ryan Homes is a shitty builder. I spoke with a manager at Bray and Scarff after this experience. He said he would send another team out to install my washer/dryer. He promised to make this situation right. He said I would need to sign a "waiver" because they do not like to install on the polymer push-fit outlet box that builders are now using (for the last 5 years Ryan Homes has been using this box). So you are telling me you are requiring 3,000 homeowners who are purchasing new homes in 2021 from builders in Urbana to sign waivers on their washer box instead of teaching your installers how to install washers on these newer polymer boxes? The manager also said his installers do not wear booties because they are dangerous to their installers when moving heavy equipment. I want to note that the movers who moved my furniture placed protective cardboard and plastic sheets on my floors to protect them from damage, the furniture delivery team that brought my 3 sofas wore booties AND the Best Buy technicians wore booties when they delivered and installed our TV's/wall mounts. They had on industrial type booties with grippers on the bottom. Also, the person who is installing our blinds took his shoes off when entering my home (without me asking) to measure for our blinds. Bray and Scarff was the only company that refused to wear booties or take off their shoes and the only company whose installers arrived filthy. The 2nd Bray and Scarff installation team had no idea about my experience with the first delivery team. So, there was no communication about using kid-gloves to make an unhappy customer THRILLED with her second experience with Bray and Scarff. This team left packing material all over my yard and in my garage when they left. I asked them repeatedly if we should take off the doors to my laundry nook to prevent damage and they said no, they were professionals. They damaged my stairs with the nuts and bolts on their dolly and were SUPER quick to tell me they did not do it, that it was there before. I know this is untrue because they were LITERALLY the only ones to use a dolly in my house. The movers carried furniture on their backs up my house and did not use a dolly. The installers also damaged my laundry room nook doors with the dolly. I waited 3 weeks to write this review to see if Bray and Scarff would follow up on my experience with them. The movers, the Best Buy Geek Squad AND the furniture delivery company ALL followed up with personal phone calls to see how my service was, but not Bray and Scarff. The disconnect of communication between their delivery team and their sales team is astonishing. The lack of customer service and taking responsibility for damage in customers' homes is astonishing.

    purchased new kitchen appliances at the beginning of June for my contractor to install, because of some project delays the appliances ended up sitting in box in my garage for a month. when it was time to install I learned that my range hood was the wrong size. I called bray and Scarff about exchanging it for the larger size and showed a picture of it in the box, plastic packaging still intact. I learned I was outside of the return window but that sometimes exceptions are made. an exception wasn't made this time because apparently you can't resell it even though it's new in box and not even a little bit disrupted. their prices are no better than Home Depot or Lowe's and at least you get a decent return policy with those stores. Never, ever again will I shop here

    Whirlpool appliances looking great!

    I was at a loss as to who to turn to when my Maytag washer- only 1 1/2 years old - stopped working…read more So I went to YELP, which I have turned to many times before and have always been satisfied. I reached out to B&B Appliance. They reached back out to me within 5 minutes and asked when I would like them to come. They were upfront about the cost for coming and when I said tomorrow, I was shocked to get a reply saying no problem. They said between 8:30-9 am and they arrived within that window. It took them no time to find the problem. They had to order the part and said it should be in by Thursday, and they would call that morning (today) with an ETA. True to their word a call came in early, and we were told between 11-1. Once again, they came in the time quoted. They talked with my husband for a while and discussed the type of issue we were having, saying it was not the first time they had to replace that same part in a Maytag. My husband was very satisfied with them. Rest assured if we have any future appliance problems, they will be the people we call. If you want a reliable company, who says what they are doing and takes the time to explain what happened, then call them! My husband and I are both very satisfied with the service we received. THANK YOU, B&B! Great work and Great job.

But, I'm kind of glad it took three calls before I reached someone at B&B Appliance Repair. It wasn't an emergency, but had it been, they would have been out there the next morning. Instead, the owner coordinated with my tenant, and the stove was fixed in a timely manner. The bill was sent via text to me which allowed me to stay home and tend to other matters instead of driving 60 miles to Winchester. I own a duplex which means I have double the number of appliances. I know who to call next time one needs repairing. And I'll bet anything, I'll have to call just one time.
