I purchased a dryer on August 3, 2023. The delivery came on August 21. Had I gone to a big box store, it would have only taken a week. I wanted to patronize a small business because I thought the service would be better and customized.
The two delivery men were waiting in the truck in front of my house for 15 minutes before they got out. The older one, Jermaine, came to my side door and immediately said that that door would have to be removed before he could bring the dryer in with his partner.
I told him I have had many washers and dryers moved in and out without any damage or problems and they are all the same width, 27 in. I had the salesman measure it and I looked online at this model and the measurement was 27 in wide.
On August 1, I had a washer moved in that was also 27 in without any kind of problem and with space to spare at the doorways.
Jermaine refused to listen to my objections after I told him the door could absolutely NOT be taken off the hinges. There was absolutely no need to take it off either.
He said to me "Are you trying to tell me how to do my job? I've been doing this for years and I can get the door off." He proceeded to remove one pin. I TOLD HIM TO STOP FIVE TIMES. The house and the door belong to me and I didn't want him to damage anything. When he couldn't get the second pin out, he finally stopped and put the first pin back in to the hinge. He was very embarrassed because I was correct.
He saw a 5 ft 3 in stupid female senior citizen who he thought he could domineer. I happen to be a highly educated professional with three degrees and two specialty certificates from CWRU and U of M. I have been in practice for 35 years. Everyone respects me and listens to what I have to say - - except Jermaine, who knows so much better and who knows so much more!
He incorrectly measured the doorway, when the door was not fully opened. He refused to bring the dryer into my basement. The dryer belonged to me. I paid for it and it is my property. I wanted it left in the driveway. I had three men working on the other side of the house on my gutter and I know they would have carried it into the basement.
He pretended to call Snow Brothers and then strapped my dryer onto the dolly. I needed the dryer, as I was tired of going to the laundromat and wasting 2 hours every time I needed to dry clothes. I stood in front of the dryer and attempted to get it off the dolly. He pushed me around and something sharp on the dolly or the back of the dryer punctured my right leg and ripped the skin. My left leg was also scratched.
Even after I was injured and in pain, I tried to reclaim my dryer, but he rammed the 100 pound dryer into me and pushed me aside.
I would have signed a release. He has no problem solving skills or people skills.
I called Snow Brothers and they said they would get back to me which they never did. After they took the dryer away, I drove out to Snow Brothers to report this incident. They believed whatever fairy tale he spun, as well as falsely claiming the dryer was too big to bring into the house. I wanted to resolve this matter.
They offered me NO apology or first aid while I was standing there bleeding. They showed no concern for me, treated me very coldly and REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE OR ACCEPT ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS ASSAULT. All they wanted to do was offer me a refund for my purchase price, which I refused to accept.
This is the kind of customer service I received from the office employee, as well as being disrespected, domineered and assaulted by the moronic delivery man. I'm filing a police report.
And to add insult to my injury, I'm still without my dryer.
Do NOT deal with this company!!!
