    B&H always makes it easy to find what I'm looking for. The comparison feature helps me compare prices and features of, in this case, a replacement/upgrade lens I was interested in. B&H also makes it easy to sell back my used equipment at a fair price.

    I recently purchased the Bright Tangerine Titan Arm 2 for my Ursa Cine 12K from B&H Photo, and the entire experience was seamless. The B&H website made the process incredibly easy with its clean layout, detailed product specs, high-quality images, and straightforward checkout. Finding the exact Titan Arm 2 variant (3/8"-16 Anti-Twist to NATO) was simple with their excellent search and filtering options. Shipping was fast, packaging was secure, and everything arrived in perfect condition. B&H continues to be a go-to for professional gear thanks to its reliable service and transparent pricing.

    My first Titan Arm 2 itself has been a fantastic addition to my BM Pyxis 12K rig. It's well-built with a smooth gradient locking mechanism and 360° ball-and-socket joints that make precise positioning effortless for monitors or accessories. At 11" long and supporting up to 11 lb, it feels rock-solid yet adjustable, with interchangeable mounts that fit my setup perfectly right out of the box. I'm excited about how it enhances my workflow with its quick adjustments without the fuss and jankyness other arms have, and it holds everything securely during shoots. The 2nd Titan Arm 2 in orange I picked up will be used on my Ursa Cine 12k. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a premium articulating arm!

      I tried to place an order and my Payboo card was declined. I called customer service, and Daniela spent 39 minutes on the phone with me to resolve the issue. I feel that she done an excellent job. She contacted the card company directly, along with others to resolve my issue. I am very happy with the service that I received. I trust B&H to always do the right thing. I always look to B&H first whenever I order a related product. B&H has demonstrated that they are a very reliable and honest company.

      Original Review: June 10, 2026

      I run a wall art print business selling on Amazon. On April 21, 2026, I ordered a Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-4600 production printer from B&H ($4,200, Order #**, paid via their own Payboo credit card) to fulfill customer orders. Promised delivery: 5–9 days. It is now June 9 — almost two months later — and I am still fighting for basic resolution.

      Here is the full timeline: The shipment was lost by their freight carrier (ABF). Every day of delay meant Amazon orders I could not produce and income lost. During the delay I moved, and requested a delivery address change. B&H agreed multiple times but failed to process it for over two weeks. On May 11, I gave up waiting, rented a truck ($200), hired movers, and spent a full day picking up the printer from the carrier's terminal myself. The printer arrived defective out of the box: hardware error EC15-2E23 (4801), faulty ink supply system, broken components, shipping damage, and a missing roll holder. Still no working printer — still no way to fulfill my Amazon orders.

      B&H refused to arrange repair. Instead, their representative told me to buy a SECOND printer ($5,300, Order #*8) on my personal credit card, promising the defective unit would be picked up and refunded promptly. The defective printer was picked up by their carrier on May 26, 2026. Two weeks later — no refund. When I called, B&H redirected me to ABF Freight, even though my contract is with B&H. ABF confirmed the printer has been sitting in their warehouse since May 26 because B&H never provided return instructions or paid for return freight. Three separate B&H representatives promised to "resolve it within a week." None followed through. I have spent almost two months on calls and emails just trying to get B&H to treat a customer who spent $9,500 with them with basic respect.

      The damage so far: $4,200 charged for a defective, returned printer — no refund. $5,300 on my personal credit card now accruing ~30% APR because the promised refund never came. $200 truck rental plus movers caused by their failed address change. Weeks of lost revenue from Amazon orders my business could not produce while waiting for a working printer. I have full documentation: order records, the May 26 pickup confirmation, ABF's statements, photos of the defects, and call logs. I have sent B&H a formal demand letter and will be filing a billing dispute and complaints with consumer protection agencies if this is not resolved. I am ready to update this review as soon as B&H issues the refund and resolves the return.

      I called in sales to make an inquiry of a Denon speaker. The call was abruptly disconnected for no apparent reasons. If the call was not hung up by the representative, he should have called me back for a sale, since they all have caller ID for calling number, but no. This is not the first time I shop at B&H. Just like their other reviews: inconsistent customer service. I hope this review will prompt the Director of Sales to get the bottom of it.
