Ordered and put a downpayment on all appliances (range, fridge, dishwasher, microwave, washer and dryer) at Coast on April 2. Salesman did contact us every couple months to see how our renovations were going.
When renovations were close to complete, we started trying to get in touch with our salesman (Aug. 5 - were told a 6 week lead time needed). He finally responded Aug.14 (he had been away). Told him we wanted delivery in mid Sept., were assured it wouldn't be a problem & order had been placed. Went to the store in early Sept. to make the full payment so they could book delivery. Was told at that time the fridge was back-ordered but they would supply us with a loaner fridge (smallest fridge I've ever seen).
Delivery day arrives - no fridge. Called Coast, our salesman was with a customer. Tried calling a few times. Salesman eventually called back - was told it was the delivery/install people's mistake and we have to coordinate with them for a new delivery time. The delivery people insisted it wasn't their fault and weren't real helpful (received loaner 3 days after it should of arrived). Day before delivery, received an email from salesman saying he had spoken to my husband about delivery of loaner - not so.
A week after that, I received a call from Coast (not our salesman) saying they were delivering our fridge that day! I thought great, the fridge I ordered and paid for was in. But I was already two hours away from home so we settled on a delivery 2 days later. Found out the day before that it wasn't my fridge, they were just trying to give me another loaner.
Wasn't happy with the dishwasher the salesman recommended. They did arrange/allow for us to get a different one, but sent the installer to our old address. It ended up having a dent in the door. No problem, the door can be replaced. Sent that person to the wrong address too.
Fridge I originally ordered was finally in at the end of November. So it took two and a half months for all my appliances to arrive (FIVE different delivery days). In the end, Coast did give us a $200 credit for waiting so long for the fridge (pretty sure that didn't cover the time I took off from work). Think I'll go with Trail or Leon's next time. read more
