I bought an Echo pole saw over the phone from Killian's and have nothing but great things to say…read moreabout my experience, both from the initial phone purchase and the pickup of the saw this weekend. Jordan was extremely helpful over the phone - I am an hour away- as were the other people I spoke with. The same is true of when I picked up the saw yesterday (two weeks after buying over the phone). Brandon, Jordan, Ashley, and Sharon could not have been nicer nor more professional. I hate that the store is not closer to me, because they would be my go-to for anything related to lawn equipment!

The person who answered said he would have it picked up, making it sound like that would happen in the coming days. That was one month ago and I've not heard one word from them. (I did call back once, only to be told we were "still on the schedule" to be picked up but they had no idea when they could get to us.) Makes you wonder how long it would take to get your mower back, if they ever did actually work on one. Also makes you wonder how such a worthless company stays in business.

She asked if I needed help with anything. I told her I was interested in looking at the mowers. She showed me where they were and answered my questions all while helping 2 other customers. She was very professional. I decided to buy a mower and Scott the manager came over and helped me get the mower loaded into my vehicle. Scott and Kia both made the purchase a smooth one. Thank you both. Skeet Lincolnton NC

We bought a Stihl MS 331 gas chain saw because we had 14 trees that fell during Hurricane Helene…read more We took it home, and it would not start. My husband has used chain saws for over 40 years and knows how they operate. We brought it back to Northern Tool, the manager (Shannan) said that their mechanic was on vacation, so she took the chain saw to a back room and tried to start it and was unable to. She came back and said that my husband must have flooded it. My husband said that we would just exchange it for another saw. She said that we could not do that. My husband said that we would just return it for a refund. She said that there was a $70.00 restocking fee! We never even used the saw! It was brand new! She was adamant about the fee and charged it. My husband asked for the name of customer service so he could lodge a complaint. When he called customer service, he was told to call Derek Kurtz, who is the district manager. He called Mr. Kurtz, and was told that they have had a lot of problems with the Stihl MS 331 chain saw, but usually after the customer brings it back to their mechanic three or four times, it will work! This is utterly ridiculous! We then went to Lowes Home Improvement and bought a Husqvarna chain saw and it started right up and works just fine.

There were still many people walking around inside and more in line checking out. I explained that I needed another lock to match one I had purchased recently, and that I knew right where they were. I could get it and be in line to check out in seconds. He lied and told me that they had already shut all the registers down, even though both were checking out customers. I sat out front for 15 minutes while customers continued to exit the store with their purchases. I have done a lot of business with this store but will not waste my time making the trip ever again. I suggest you reconsider doing business with a store that doesn't care about your time, or their integrity.

She told me how to replace my current mower battery and then explained, in detail, the other options I had. Not only the options but how the batteries were interchangeable with other tools by the same company and how useful that could be. She went on to tell me about safe battery care and how batteries were affected by hot and cold temperatures. I sure learned from this visit and will ask for her when I return to buy the mower my husband and I have decided to purchase. That woman is an exemplary employee! C.Smith
