After picking out the one that best met his stringent requirements, he called around and found only a few places that carried it, and only one that did their own installation: Central Appliance. He purchased and set up the delivery and installation appointment over the phone, and was in contact via email after Hurricane Sandy delayed the delivery. The delivery and installation went very smoothly, with one exception: a small rock got caught from our driveway in the bottom of the dishwasher while bringing it upstairs, and scratched our tile floor. The installer was very apologetic and said we should contact Central Appliance directly, which we did, and Merry (manager? Owner? Person in charge that had handled the entire transaction) had a tile company come out and fix it up promptly. All in all we were extremely satisfied--we never had to step foot outside!--and would recommend Central Appliance to anyone in the area looking for a trustworthy, experienced dealer. By the way, Merry told the mister that Central Appliance is the only authorized Bosch dealer in the area, and that the other company who said they "had a guy" to put in the dishwasher used CA as their contractor for Bosch repairs. So they appear to really be the experts.

So I called Dompier Electric on a Sunday when we failed. Their answering service said they would leave a message and they would return my call on Monday. Since I'd been living with the problem already that sounded good to me. On Monday I decided to make sure my message got through. I discovered that after giving them my payment information the repairman was on his way. Within 30/45 minutes the serviceman was here and within a half hour the problem was solved. I'm glad I took this rating with, as they say, "a grain of salt". Great Job Dompier Electric. Yelp/Facebook error. Should be Jane M of Vermont.

The estimate never arrived. This was a fairly big job too. If their attention to detail and customer service is that bad I would not chance their work results not being just as poor.

I am a repeat customer, having bought a wood stove and having had shades installed at my house. Unfortunately, while everyone I spoke with was very friendly, I received no action. When I called, everyone with whom I spoke assured me that they had all of my information and that I would receive some type of communication - nothing. Finally, two months after my initial request, a very nice person reached out. We arranged a time for her to come and measure my windows. She wrote up a detailed agreement, and I promptly paid half. That was in early June. She did explain that they had to order the custom shades. Since then - nothing. When I emailed her and her supervisor asking for a simp0le update last week, I thought that I might hear something - silence. Perhaps Friends of the Sun is overwhelmed with business and so profitable that they do not need to worry about communicating with customers but, to me, this is poor business. Everyone deserves to be treated courteousy. An email response takes about 30 seconds, unless you are long-winded like me :)

I finally reached out to Cota & Cota, seeing that they offered plumbing services. They said they typically only provided those services to gas customers (we were buying from Bob's), but I told them we were desperate, so they agreed to help. They showed up within 24 hours every time I called (which was at least five times over one summer) to get patch work done. Eventually, we decided on doing a full pipe replacement. They completed that work in 48 hours, and they did so despite a low electrical current running through the pipes thanks to dome DIY wiring the previous owners did and decided not to tell us about. We still need a new filtration system to reduce the acidity of our well water, but we now have functional pipes (mostly plastic).

I was doing my best to spend local and not buy four new kitchen appliances and a new washer and dryer set from Home Depot. I have contacted Cocoplum on a Monday, I told them what our budget was and the size and requirements for each item in the purchase. A week later I had not hear anything back from them. It's a $8500 order, you would think someone would care. Once I talked to the employee (you know who you are; I'm being courteous by not mentioning your name) he sent over chicken scratch photocopied price and details for two items to my email. No choices, not explanation of options, cost/benefit, warranty etc. The only thing he told me was that "I'm a Whirlpool Man" OK WTF is that? No time to go through the sales purchase with me? Its only the third largest purchase Ill make in years. I asked for a further recommendations and warranty. I never heard back from the salesman. Never received a quote on the other four appliances. Must be nice being a business in Windham County Vermont and be doing sooooo well you can blatantly not care about a $7500+ order. Get this, on top of that sad story - He came recommended from a friend of mine that has a kitchen design shop, and on top of that I indicated Im a landlord and have SIX high-end apartments under construction and will buying new appliances for all within the next six months. So disappointed. I tried to spend locally but ended up with great service, knowledgable, friendly, not pushy, great prices at Home Depot instead. Sad. Keep reaching for those stars Cocoplum. read more

Normally they make up for this by also cleaning our couch and easy chair - usually takes the guy 5 extra minutes. * Cleaning guy refused to do the couch, even though he was in and ready to leave after cleaning the one room in 15 minutes. He said, "I have other places to clean and I'm running behind" * When we showed him the dirt we were able to scoop off the carpet, he said "if you're not happy, just take it up with my manager about making it right" and took off. * We called the manager, mentioned the still-dirty carpet and the couch not getting done.
