We bought most of our furniture at Northern Mattress for our retirement home in 2014: A beautiful…read morebed room set, Futon, Loveseat Recliners and two swivel rockers. The first night our bed fell apart. The man came out and told us HOW to fix it. Four years later we called about the mattress sagging. The referred us to the mattress company who had us take pictures of the bed. In order to do so, my now 4 years retired husband had to disassemble the entire bed and take a picture of the frame. The response from the mattress company was, "It's not the mattress, it's the bass board that is missing. Once again Norther Mattress told us HOW to fix it. We just paid a man to help us fix it. Service is non existent in this company. In less than 2 years my swivel rocker fell apart. We called Northern Mattress and they said their was nothing they could do. We purchased another rocker at another company - a glider. Two years later, we found a screw on the floor that seemed to come from no where. We found a second and a third. My husband turned the chair upside down and could not find where the screws were falling from. When the fourth screw fell out, we went to the second furniture store located in Belgrade ME and ordered a matching recliner. I will say that the Futon we purchased is excellent, well used and still in beautiful condition. The love seats are difficult to get out of and seem to be needing new padding. After only four years?

Horrible customer service post purchase. 2 days after ordering we needed to cancel due to…read moreunexpected personal situation. We were told it would cost 20% even though doubtful the item was in production yet. No effort from store to help. They would not even give us the phone number to call manufacturer to confirm production or ask to cancel. I highly doubt they even made the initial effort.

Recently bought an LG washer/dryer combo from Major Appliance. Had it two weeks and had an issue,…read moreso I called them. Now remember I did ask if he had a repair man and he (David the owner) told me he didn't have enough to keep him busy, so the man went on his own, however he did take care of "Major Appliance" for the owner. When I called David wasn't there, so I left a message regarding the issue (it wasn't a big issue). Hours later I hadn't heard so I called back. The lady in the business area took the call and tried to help, however she ended up telling me to call LG help line. She told me they didn't have a repair man! I told her what the owner had told me, she said he (repair man) doesn't work on LG products. I said I should have been told that!!! I need new appliances but will NOT be dealing with Major Appliance!! I'm sorry I didn't go to Dave's Appliance in Winthrop; I was just trying to deal closer to home first. My impression of the owner is he's a worm and passes the problems to the business lady, she did try to help me out.

This is not the Major Appliance that was owned by Mr. Martin. We purchased a gas stove and when it…read morewas delivered there was no instruction manual. I would not recommend this company. The previous owners made sure there was no damage to flooring, etc. and there was always documentation. I would not recommend this company. I might change my mind if we need service and they provide service like Mr. Martin did.

My family has purchased all our recent appliances from Fortin's. A few years ago, during the…read morepandemic, we ordered a new fridge. It took a while to arrive, as was the time, but no longer than any other place quoted us. We had great delivery, including bring it upstairs. More recently, we bought a new stove. Ended up getting a showroom display because it was the last one, so we got a great deal on it. The staff and owner were very helpful in finding us something that was perfect for us. It's an induction top and exactly the right size and shape for our kitchen. It has been working exceptionally well for us and we are so happy we switched to induction! Overall, we have just been pleased with the durability and service, especially compared to other places we have shopped for appliances over the years.

Had a great experience with buying a new super new mattress at Northern mattress in Waterville…read moreMaine. From my first visit, salesman Steve did not pressure me, but helped me find a mattress to suit my sore back issues. Great selection in this store. I did not buy that first day, ( I had to ponder ) but came back later and bought the same mattress. After purchasing, having my new mattress delivered was easy, and also done on my time schedule. The company called to confirm the day before. The surprise came when the mattress was delivered. Two of the nicest deliverymen ( Tyler and Dan) performed this task in a professional and courteous manner. They unloaded, brought it in, we inspected it and all was good . The delivery was right after a snow storm and roads could not have been good. This was the best delivery experience i have ever had , in my 71 years. Yes I will buy there again.
