Had my stackable washer/dryer replaced today by Ackerman's. My dealing with this company from the…read morevery beginning was one of efficiency, professionalism and reliability. They called to let me know when the appliances would be in and when they would be installed. No excuses, no delays and no nonsense - they were right on target which is unbelievable in todays market when everything is on backorder. The installers were clean and very respectful of my property. Whatever problems they encountered they handled without any hassles or extra cost. I highly recommend this company. Maria C

I first purchased appliances (SubZero reefer, Asko dw, Viking range) from Ackerman's in 1999, I had…read moreheard beforehand that their motto was "If we don't sell them we don't service them", which is logical, given that our rural region's authorized sales and service centers are generally separated by ~30 to fifty miles. I chose them over a competitor twenty-five miles closer to me because of their reputation for honest dealing and skilled service technicians. Over the past twenty years, I have found this to be the case. I recently replaced my original dw with a new Asko from Ackerman's, whose technician and I ran into problems that called for an oscillating saw (neither of us had one and it would have taken an hour to locate and obtain one from a neighbor) but were solved with hammer, chisel, muscle, and skill (none of it mine). Really impressive.

We needed to purchase a stand alone freezer and a heavy duty washer and dryer and quickly…read more Overall the experience was quite "Vanilla"....very plain. In that, I mean that there was very little "chat" or personal interaction on the salespersons part and we were left alone for far longer than we wanted. Everytime we had a question we had to go looking for someone who might have an answer or maybe even (If we were lucky) find where our salesperson kept disappearing too when we were literally the only customers in the store. To be clear, It was OK and just OK. In our experience...when trying to support local businesses, we generally find a much higher level of customer involvement by the business. This was most definitely not the case here. The feeling that we got was one of......buy or don't buy....makes no difference to us. For absolutely sure we have received much friendlier and helpful service at the big box stores (Lowe's, Home Depot, Sams Club and Costco) and frankly expected a much better experience than we received from this store which on that day....at that time.....at least appeared to not care one way or the other about us or whether we purchased from them or not. We were in desperate need of the appliances and they were in stock and ready for delivery.....so, minus all the love.....we bought the appliances and gave serious consideration as to whether we would ever go there again. Probably not. Not Mad.......Just Disappointed.

I contain multitudes…read more 1. I enjoy the modern world. I like being able to go to a website, filter all my options, see all the specs of a product, select which one I want, pay for it and get it delivered without having to leave my house, or sometimes even talk to a person. 2. I also love supporting local businesses. I like being able to call a number where a human being (a really nice one named Leah) picks up the phone right away, and can answer all my questions. I like when someone like Leah can tell me what they have in stock that fits my needs, and how soon I could get it delivered. I like that Leah can give me a good price, and I like that the price includes delivery, installation, and taking away the old item that I'm replacing. I really like that the item in question (a fridge) got delivered when they said it would, and that there were no problems, or hidden charges. If #1 above resonates with you, HL Snyder is probably not the place you want to shop. Their website has a few options, but you're not going to be able to see their entire selection, and handle everything online. You may have to speak to a person, or go into the showroom. If #2 sounds like you, give HL Snyder a call, and they'll fix you up very nicely.

Yesterday, Alex R repaired my appliance, and I couldn't be happier with the experience from start…read moreto finish. He called ahead to confirm his arrival window and showed up right on time - no waiting around all day wondering when he'd show, which I really appreciated. Modern appliances are packed with electronic parts that are often hidden and hard to access, making repairs tricky. Alex R handled my appliance's repair issue with patience, professionalism, and impressive problem-solving skills. He was also courteous, easy to talk to, and left the area spotless. It's rare to find someone who combines expertise, honesty, and great communication, but Alex R checks every box. If you need appliance repair, ask for him specifically - highly recommend!

We live in a world that's increasingly dominated by giant corporations. They succeed because they…read moreare everywhere, they often make it easy to shop with them, and because they can often undercut the smaller local spots when it comes to prices. I made the mistake of ordering a gas range from one of these giant corporations, and it turned out to be a giant problem. They delivered but couldn't handle the installation, and then they couldn't take the stove with them, and then the guys who came to pick it up were rude and caused more issues, etc. So I did what I should've done, and I called Earl B. Feiden, and they helped me out, and solved my problem. I got to talk to an actual person (thanks Ken!), and I laid out what I needed (a gas range in a non-standard size), and where the potential problem might arise (it needed to be converted to propane), and they handled it like pros. Sometimes it may cost you a little more time and a tiny bit more hassle (if you consider talking to an actual person a hassle, not a pleasure like I do) to go with the smaller shop, but I highly recommend buying local. It worked out for me with Earl B. Feiden. And in the end, the range I got ended up being cheaper than the one from the big box store anyway.

I have to agree with other reviewers mentioning how awful the installation process went. The…read morepurchase was super smooth because I did my homework and knew exactly what we wanted down to the model numbers. What really buttered my biscuit was them telling me my 220v outlet was not working....so, I hired an electrician to come out to fix an outlet that turns out was working perfectly.....($189.95) minimum house call charge. Also they had issue with the drainage for my dishwasher.....had a plumber come out to tell me they only needed a $2.75 PCV flange to get past their installation Issue. This is not the experience I expected and apparently purchasing a Heavy Duty Washer and Dryer, a Refrigerator, a Dishwasher and an Induction Stove ( which came out to more than a couple bucks) all at the same time does not warrant sending out installation people with more than one installation under their belts. We're not likely to use them again. Mostly because of the Electrician thing

We kinda have an obsession with THD. It started with Ryobi and keeps us coming back. I mean, one…read morebattery and pretty much ALL THE TOOLS?! Beyond that, the store has gotten better over the years. Best place to park remains the roof deck where no one goes. Customer service is slightly better, but still subpar compared to suburban or Southern THDs. The app makes finding things an 8/10, so helps make up for it. The lack of being able to pay with Apple Pay definitely steal a star here. What is it with home renovation stores that don't take Apple Pay?! Thankfully our local Ace does (they get a much, much better review btw). For a big box store, you could do worse, but they'll likely have the tool/part thing you'll need.

Personally, I loathe going in any of these stores but my budget unfortunately does not allow me to hire people to do repairs and/or remodeling on my home as much as I would like. So ......

When pricing appliances while I was building my home, the decision was an easy one:…read more Could I have purchased the products for less elsewhere? Yes, but I felt the advantages of purchasing from Campbell & Keeler far outweighed saving a few dollars (which if you amortize over the life of the appliances, the difference is negligible). And Keeler appliances have not proven me wrong! Advantages: * Supporting our local businesses is important. * Service -This was an important consideration when I was deciding what company to purchase my high-end appliances from. I have had a few issues with my Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances. Each and every time Gordon Keeler responded immediately to my service calls. Most recently my Wolf Microwave/Convection oven stopped heating just days before the Christmas holiday. Gordon was at my home the same day I called to access my issue. Parts were ordered and the appliance was back in order by Saturday afternoon. I know I would have been without my second oven had I purchased appliances anywhere else and especially from a big box store. I would not consider buying appliances anywhere else. Thank you, Gordon & Keeler Applicances for saving Christmas dinner!

Scott at Brook Valley was excellent!! He answered all my questions, pointed out a great sale going on.

The company is located in Manchester, VT and most people might be hesitant to shop is such a beautiful town (prices might be high.) absolutely untrue!!!!
