Summary: Failed inspection, zero accountability…read more I hired this company to install a wood burning stove, and the job failed Washington's blower door test due to a half‑inch gap they left around the stove pipe which was brining in cold air into the house. The inspector confirmed it was a major source of air leakage. When I contacted John (installer), he dismissed the inspector, claimed "31 years of experience," and blamed me for not doing my building inspection before he installed the stove. Jeanne (owner) backed him up and sent me multiple pictures of building code screenshots which are no help to me when the building inspector says the job isn't correct. Finally, she demanded a $259 service call just to review their own work. Instead I sealed the gap with high temp caulk and had a retest done, and it passed immediately. The inspector showed me his machine which had measured a decrease in air leakage equivalent to closing a cracked window. When I told them Jeanne and John, all they had to say was that now I've voided my warranty by adding the caulk. No apologies, no attempt to make it right. I wish I would have seen all the 1 start reviews they had on Yelp before I tried to support a local store that is clearly going out of business.

I had asked her to email me the invoice before I paid, and she simply sent me a single number. I asked again for an invoice via email. Maybe she doesn't know how to send an attachment? anyways, that took a couple of weeks (over the holidays), and she starts getting really nasty and threatening. Avoid this "business" like the plague.

There was no plastic barrier at the cash register. I do not judge people for not wearing masks, but I tend to go where more people are in compliance because my own safety is one of the considerations I have in mind when I shop. I'm going to need a refrigerator soon, but I won't shop at this store. I'll go online first, or find an appliance store where hygiene is important. Did they ever think that might be the reason they only had one other customer? Before Covid-19 I would have rated this store a 4 or 5. I bought my washer and dryer there a couple of years ago.

We tried the nex and Home Depot first, only to be told they have zero stock, and HD could not deliver for at least a week, up to three! Since we really wanted it soon, we left. We stopped in for our first time at the new location of the Sears hometown store, and immediately noticed the selection, while the display was a little smaller than HD, actually had stock available. We chose a great one, almost identical to the one we wanted at HD that wasn't available, for $200+ less!! In addition, they were able to deliver in a day's time. Speaking to the sales associate / manager was a pleasure, she was informative and helpful while also leaving us in privacy to make decisions. We chose to pick our new fridge up after borrowing a truck. As soon as we pulled up in the truck, Nicole, the manager brought our purchase right outside to us (new in the box) and helped load it right onto our truck herself!. Amazing service!

On April 22 I made a conscious decision to go in to urban feed and garden to purchase a tree for my…read morewife's birthday, instead of going to a box store to support a local business in my neighborhood. I paid about 40% more for a tree, a one inch caliper hornbeam in a plastic pot. The tree had a little bit of leaf burn on its new growth, but I chalked that up to being root bound in a pot, so I purchased the tree. I was landscape contractor for years, I have planted hundreds of trees so I planted this tree giving it the best possible chance for survival. With regular watering the leaf burn continued to spread, even though I held off on fertilizing the tree, until it showed signs of some growth so I wouldn't burn it or shock it. Last week I pulled it out of the ground because it was completely dead, when I did there was zero root development. Anyway, I know from experience that sometimes new plants just die but when I was running a landscape construction I warranted every plant I ever sold to a customer. If a plant died within the first year, I would replace it. I could usually bring these plants back to the vendor and exchange them for a new one, but those were real nurseries like Gurneys or Molbaks. I called this nursery and explained what I've written above and they told me they couldn't help me, I even asked if they would just give me another tree and they declined. We live in a different world, where accountability and responsibility are foreign to a lot of people. I won't be going back to Urban And garden.

The experience left me frustrated for sure, but primarily just confused. I contacted multiple…read morefurniture makers and ended up choosing UR after visiting their location. I ordered a custom-made table (basic but sturdy design, literally just a tabletop on 4 posts) and paid for it in full on Aug 3 2020. The first red flag was unresponsive and slow communication. Here's what I emailed them regarding specs (this will be important later): 08/03/2020: "Can you give me a rough sketch of what the finished product would look like? I want to make sure there's no ambiguity or points of confusion. I included my own sketch attached. Please call me when you have a chance." 08/14/2020: "Hi, I've tried to reach you by phone a few times regarding the desk." The 4+ months that followed can only be described as an excruciatingly slow and painful process as I desperately tried to garner any tidbit of information they were willing to throw in my direction. I can't post the entire thread because of character limits but here's a sample of me emailing them: 09/07/2020: "Hi, any updates?" 09/17/2020: "Hi Patrick, I have not heard from you in several weeks now." 09/23/2020: "Hello Patrick, I would really appreciate an update from you." 10/05/2020: "Can you give me a firm date on when will this be ready? I placed the order back in early August and it has been two months now." 10/23/2020: "I have not received an update in more than two weeks. Can you give me a firm date of delivery or at the very least some sort of timeframe besides "soon"?" 12/08/2020: "When will this be done? When I visited two weeks ago you told me it should be done before Thanksgiving." 12/15/2020: "I'd like the table that I paid for in August please" UR had me visit twice, on Oct 24 and on Nov 11 to see the tabletop in person to talk about the color. In both instances, I insisted on a dark walnut stain. I emphasized the reasons why I requested it, emailed them samples of the color, supplied photographs, and even pointed at samples within UR's shop that matched what I was looking. The staff, for whatever reason, seemed extremely reluctant to apply any stain at all on the tabletop and would give only non-committal responses in the vein of "We'll see what we can do". Eventually, weeks later, they claim the table is ready for delivery and send me a photo where they have already applied a finish without applying a stain. I have no explanation for their behavior but at that point I got fed up with the endless delays and inexplicable stubbornness and decided to walk away and asked for a refund. UR refused and said my only avenue for redress would be small claims court (quote from them: "we will look for the paperwork"). When I pursued that, the owner resorted to juvenile insults, emailing me that I "suck ass" then eventually getting his attorney involved. To their credit, UR *did* soon after fix their error and applied the correct stain. I visited in person and the table looked great! I secured and paid for its delivery myself and spent several hours setting it up at its new location. It was only then that I found out two things: 1. The table was the wrong dimensions, and too short by 10%. 2. The table was not actually flat and curved inward (see picture). Returning the table at that point was the last thing I wanted to do after everything that transpired. UR claimed that I had approved the shorter dimensions but I have no record of that in any of our emails. Instead, what I do have is multiple instances of me trying to talk to them to nail down specifications but having a difficult time getting a response from them (see emails above). I was never given an explanation for why the tabletop surface was deformed but the flaw made the table functionally useless for its intended purpose. I fully understood that the pandemic has thrown many supply chains into chaos. It makes sense that materials and delivery would suffer delays; to be clear I'm not blaming UR for that. But the issue here is that over the course of several months it was extremely difficult to get a hold of them or get any concrete updates, and what I did end up with eventually was seriously deficient on multiple fronts. Even though I eventually did receive a refund (thanks to PayPal), time and money was wasted on delivery costs and unnecessary court filings on my end. I'm sure UR lost a lot of money as well! But that was a result of some very basic errors on their end and I don't understand why they'd let this happen to them. Hence my confusion.
