    outfitting entire kitchen with high end appliances

    The purchasing was easy, fast and friendly but the nightmare began on delivery. A broken glass door of a stove came right off the truck, 3 of appliances were the wrong model and pieces missing. Trying to get it addressed was the most painful experience with no one willing to set it right without speaking to someone else - service does not deal with sales and to date we are still waiting. Worst experience I have ever had in thirty years of buying appliances. I should have listened to the delivery guys as they unboxed -" those head office guys don't care" - safer to reject all all delivery and fight for the credit.

    Kitchen appliances

    We were doing a major kitchen renovation and ordered a fridge, stove, dishwasher, and outdoor BBQ. The salesman was very friendly and helpful, and didn’t try to upsell us on anything. We hadn’t considered how to vent the stove, but didn’t want a big hood hanging down in the middle of the room, so the salesman showed us this nifty vent that mounts behind the stove and rises/retracts as needed. We were thrilled. It turned out that the vent he sold us only works with stovetops – there is a boxlike section where the blower motor is which juts out below the counter, right where the oven would be. There is a store policy against returning or refunding venting products, but since it was the salesman who recommended it to us in the first place, and it hadn’t been installed, I didn’t think there would be a problem. I went back and spoke to the store manager, and he ran us around for about two weeks claiming that he was trying to find out what to do from “head office”. I finally told him that either they would take back the vent with a full refund, or we would cancel the appliances that were still on order ($5000 worth). They tried to stick us with a 20% restocking fee on the vent, but I refused to pay for their mistake, so we wound up cancelling the remaining appliances on order and keeping the vent. (I went into a competing store that same evening with the invoice and said “match these prices” – “SOLD!”, they said). After a few weeks I wrote a letter to their service department explaining in minute detail how things played out, and how they let a solid deal fall through for the sake of a small restocking charge. The next afternoon I got a call from the store manager, who admitted that they had handled everything completely wrong, and offering to take the vent back for a full refund. So in the end the store made everything right, but I suspect it was only because somebody fell on them from a great height. Honestly, from other things I’ve read about the store and their customer service, I think we just hit them the wrong way on the wrong day. But for something that seemed to me like a no-brainer, it sure turned into an ugly, needlessly dragged-out experience. Use your own judgment.

    New Home Appliance Purchase

    My wife and I were actively searching for quality appliances at an affordable price. We were recommended to check out Goemans as a friend of ours had a good expereince there. At first, we were a little apprehensive figuring we were in for a huge sales pitch. Pleasantly surprised instead we got excellent service with no pressure. In fact, we left the same day with a written sales quote that we could use to shop around with. The prices could not be beat, two weeks later we returned and purchased our fridge, stove, dishwasher, over the range microwave, washer, dryer, and even a bbq. I recommend this store to anyone looking for quality appliances at a great price!

    All new kitchen appliances

    Goeman's was very quick to sell up. Sales people were very attentive until they made the sale. At this point all communication stopped, incorrect products were delivered (more than once),some products were not even ordered, other products didn't work. No response from Goemans. Horrible service!!!!
