    I was told my dishwasher could not be repaired and it would be replaced. Then I am told the dollar amount was below what I originally paid. It has been over 3 weeks with no dishwasher and no resolution. I am not happy with the way P.C. Richard & Son is handling this. It is a big thorn in my side. There is a lot more to the story, but there isn't enough room here to write it all down. I hope they can make this right and do more than just replace the old dishwasher. They are about to lose me as a customer. A loyal customer for decades.

    My window was a Saturday 7 am to 4 pm. Showed up at 2. Had to order part. Next appt to install part Saturday 7-12. No one showed up. Dispatcher upset with me when I called at 1130 for a status and was told “It’s not noon yet Ma’am...." At 1230 I had to cancel because no one could tell me if he would show up. Mgr apologized and said, "How 'bout Tuesday 530?" So come Tuesday I left work early to be here and NO ONE ever showed up, apparently someone on their end cancelled my appt.

    So here we are another Saturday. This time they were going to make my first appt so I wouldn’t waste my day. Well tech just called 930 am. He is an hour away and should be here by 11. The most ridiculous company I have ever dealt with and beyond. Appalled at the treatment I have received and even more appalled is they don’t care. If the shoe was on the other foot and they had to take time off for a warranty repair and lose money I assume things would be different.

    Unacceptable customer service. 1st time one guy came looked at the machine and 5 min later he said he needed to order a part. 2nd time he came he had the part but JUST noticed that the dryer was on top of the washer and it was connected to gas. He didn't want to take the dryer off and also didn't want to disconnect the gas himself which that I understand. The 3rd time 2 people came and the new guy who was there realized the other tech had ordered the wrong part... Now today they're supposed to come from 7-11 but they haven't arrived. I talked to an agent & she can't contact them. She says they must still be on the previous call and that 7-11 is an approximation. Unbelievable that they can't be reached & that we the customers can't be contacted letting us know that they're going to be late. UNACCEPTABLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. We've been down our washer for 2 months now...

    When we purchased our cooktop from the Brick, NJ store we were told they will take care of everything. Survey done to see if cooktop would fit in our cabinet. We were told it will be close with a small gap that will require a trim kit which they'll make. Then we got a call that they want to install the cooktop and remeasure to make sure trim kit is correct. Weeks later installer comes at 8:50 PM and discovers it is the wrong trim kit. It is one for an oven not cooktop. Been trying to get this resolved for a week and sale person keeps promising a resolution. When we ask to speak to a store manager they are busy but will call us back and twice have not heard from them. One of the worst service experiences I've ever had. Beware!

    We purchased a refrigerator at the Yonkers, NY store last summer and paid extra for a warranty. Our water dispenser and ice machine broke at the end of December. We called the first week of January to get it fixed. The repairman who came said it was an installation issue, and installers who subsequently came said that we needed a new valve for our water line, which precipitated another repairman visit (who said the exact same thing as the first repair man), which caused, yet another visit by the installers who said that we needed a new refrigerator.

    At this point, we have had no fewer than 7 men at our home over the course of almost three months, with absolutely no resolution. We have spoken with Brandon and Eddie at the store, who either don't return our calls or say there's nothing they can do, and argue either that we don't need a new refrigerator, or it's not in their power to get one to us. The people at the store and the people in the service department continue to fight and blame one another, and we're left with a refrigerator that is not working properly.

    Our most recent visit by the installer resulted in a verbal and written confirmation that we do, in fact, need a new fridge. I spoke with Eddie about this a week ago and emailed him the receipt with this information. He has yet to call me back. I have tried three times this week and been put on hold for 10 + minutes, transferred, and been promised that someone would get back to us (still no one has). This is without a doubt the worst experience we have ever had with a business. We just want a new refrigerator that works properly, and some sort of recompense for the past three months of issues, visits, damage (one repairman made a mistake installing the valve, which caused water damage to the ceiling in our basement).

    Original Review: March 2, 2019

    TERRIBLE Customer Service!!! TERRIBLE Customer Service!!! TERRIBLE Customer Service!!! We purchased a display model microwave. The unit had issues from day 1. The display behaved intermittently, and the turntable did not turn. As per the receipt, it is supposed to be covered under warranty for one year from purchase date for parts and labor. We called customer service, and a repair appointment was scheduled. I took a day off from work to meet the technician. He came, was unable to fix any of the problems, commented that the fan for the magnetron was not working as well, and said he'd have to come back with more parts.

    A new appointment was scheduled, I took another day off from work to meet the technician again. This time two techs came out, they took the unit down, opened it, said it had been tampered with beforehand, and said they would not fix it and left. Their advice was "call PC Richard and have them replace it". I called PC Richard's corporate number, everything was very quickly pulled up, the rep told me she would look into it and call me back. Less than 5 minutes later she called back asking if I had the original packaging. I told her no, and she said to bring the unit into any store, they would replace it for a working one, just I would have to take it home without the packaging as that's what they use to ship it back to the manufacturer. I asked, and she CONFIRMED that the exchange had been processed and was in the system. All I had to do was bring the unit to a PC Richard.

    Same day, we drove 40 minutes through traffic to a PC Richard to do the exchange. Upon arriving, we encountered a salesperson who barely spoke English. After explaining to him the situation, he spent 10 minutes on the computer, and informed us they would not do the exchange. He said they'd give us a STORE CREDIT, not even a refund, for the purchase price. We asked to see the manager. We met Mark the manager, explained the situation, he disappeared for 20 minutes only to come back and tell us the same thing.

    We called PC Richard's customer service in the store, the first associate informed us that despite the problems, all she could do was offer a store credit for the purchase price. We asked to speak to her supervisor. We were connected with a woman named Nikia, who for the duration of the call was belligerent and rude. She accused us of trying to steal money from PC Richard. All that we wanted is for the product we purchased, at the price that the store sold it for, to work as intended. And if there were issues, for PC Richard to honor the warranty they themselves write on the receipt, and talk up to every customer. For PC Richard that is clearly far too much to ask.

    I’ve purchased a Jenn Air refrigerator which dispenses ice and water, which hasn’t worked in 2 months. Customer service has scheduled 7 appointments with 4 different service technician and each time the problem was fixed and a few days later the problem would return. I’ve called and asked for a supervisor several times and each time they advised they would call me back and declined to speak with me.

    Each time I spoke with customer service they would give me the textbook answer which I would always interpret as they didn’t care about my complaint. The service company doesn’t want to make the decision to have the refrigerator replaced and P.C. Richard's customer service declines to make the same decision as well. I’ve tried speaking with the store, they advised they can’t help. I’ve asked to speak the next guy up in the chain of command but no one is willing to help. I spent a lot of money on this item and customer service will not make the decision to make this situation right.

Upon opening he found the screen was broken. I contacted the manager of PC Richard's Michel ** and sent pictures of TV and box which had no damage but it was obvious TV had just come out of box.

    When the delivery man arrived at my home I requested that they wear booties because I had just painted my entire house and refinished my hardwood floors! Right off the bat he started complaining to his partner in another language. I know this because I understood the other language they were speaking. They proceeded to bring in the washer and dryer and hook them up. One of the men had total disregard for my home and was like a bull in a china shop dragging around the appliances on my wood floor and hitting into my walls. When I requested that he be careful he just kept telling me “it’s OK”. It became apparent that they never inspected the appliance before they brought it into my home.

    After filling the washer with water, they begin the cycle to empty it and water flooded my laundry room and sprayed water all over the walls. There was no sense of urgency on their part to try to mitigate the damage which was occurring! I frantically ran to get a bucket to try to prevent more damage from happening. Then they proceeded to drag water across my hardwood floors and up and down the stairs. I kept asking them to please be careful of my floors and not scratch or get water everywhere. They just didn’t care!

    Finally when the water was somewhat cleaned up, they removed the appliance. On the way out they spilled more water everywhere and scuffed several of my walls! Not once did they ever apologize or even seem remorseful for the damage they caused. I called the store to complain and they said they would get back to me the next day and I haven’t heard anything. I am still trying to sort things out. Although the salesperson at the store was wonderful, it’s not worth the damage to my home caused by the disrespectful and uncaring delivery men.

His colleague, Rob, was equally as friendly. After explaining that a recent transaction with a competitor failed miserably, I found myself in need of a flat screen TV and corresponding sound system in which I was unable to procure after numerous attempts. Mike was able to provide me with the components I desired and more importantly provided me with the confidence that it would be installed in a timely fashion.

The first tech came here after I waited 11 days so that he could spend 2 minutes here, tell me they needed to order a part to replace. 3 days later, a 2nd tech came with two different parts. He took the TV apart, replaced the first part - no dice. Decided it "might" be the other one he had - "50/50" he said. No dice. Tells me it's the panel that needs to be replaced and the first guy misdiagnosed the issue so they'll now need to order the panel and send someone else.

    3 more days go by, the tech arrives with the new panel. He replaces it, the TV turns on, he leaves, and 2 minutes later, it shuts off. No power. Completely dead. Won't turn back on. The indicator light won't even come on at all now. I call them and they're sending a tech for a FOURTH time on this television now. This set has now been non-operational since January 26th - it is February 12th and STILL broken. In fact, it is now worse than before. At least when the first tech came, the unit had power and it was just the display that wouldn't work. Now there isn't any power at all. I am extremely aggravated. I have to keep altering my own personal schedule to accommodate someone coming here to service the same television 4 different times. It's lunacy. Just a terrible experience. I'll never buy anything from this store again.

    I bought Samsung Washing Machine on Dec 2009 from PC Richard & Son Woodbridge, NJ along with PC Richard & Son extended Warranty for 10 years. My Dishwasher was not working properly in Jan 2019 and tried all the draining procedures and but was of no use. I accidentally remembered that I purchased the extended warranty and called PC Richard & son for a service appointment. They understood the issue and thought it could be a drain pump issue and ordered a new one. The tech came and found that it was an issue with the washing basket assembly has broken and told he will order the parts and come again for fixing it. The appointment was fixed after a week.

    On the appointment day the tech called me and told that the washer part was not available as the model was discontinued and I will be given a store credit for the washer as per the contract agreement and I have to purchase a new one. I thought that the credit will be less and I was prepared to pay the difference to buy a new one. To my surprise, PC Richard & son give the entire cost of the washer I paid + the tax I paid. This happened in Jan 2019, after 9 years of my purchase. This is my first good experience of this kind. The Store Manager Mr. ** and the Sales Rep Pushpika was kind enough to go through the procedure and helped me to place the new order, of-course with a new PC Richard & Son extended warranty.

Each time they come it's at least a week wait for the next appointment so now I have been without a washing machine for a month.

    Not crazy about this dryer. What I've noticed using this dryer, is that it takes more time and hotter temperatures to get my clothes dry. (We are sure that it's not too close to the wall and the vent is fine.) Also, not happy with the vent duct that PC Richard sold. Said it was 8 feet long, turned out it was 6' and it broke completely as the installer tried to install it (wasted money on that duct). Also, we didn't need the gas line that was required to buy for free delivery. NOTE: If you purchase online, YOU MUST CALL ANOTHER PHONE number to arrange installation. It is NOT done when the appliance is delivered.

    The phone rep never mentioned that, and he also did not inform me that the existing dryer needed to be disconnected (NOT by PC Richard) before the old dryer will be taken away. Fortunately, my husband could uninstall it AND fortunately the delivery men waited for him to finish before leaving with the old dryer.

    They sell products that don't have in stock. Their message said to allow "2-3 weeks for delivery". After 2.5 weeks passed, I reached out to them, only to find out, that their statement was a LIE. They never intended to deliver the product in "2-3 WEEKS" as it's written on the website, simply because they don't have the product! It's not the first time it happened after placing order online. BE AWARE, THEY HAVE HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY WILL LIE STRAIGHT TO YOUR FACE. Will never hold to their promise. They don't care if you buy product with promotional price (as it was on other websites too) and now the same product somewhere else is much more expensive. WILL NEVER BUY FROM THEIR ONLINE STORE AND WILL MAKE SURE TO MAKE PEOPLE AWARE OF THEIR SERVICE.

    My GE washing machine purchased at the Bay Ridge PC Richard & Son needed repair because the start button was stuck. The GE maintenance repairman ordered the part but it was on back order for about two months. The PC Richard staff looked into the matter and immediately offered an exchange for a new replacement.

    The Bay Ridge store manager, Mr Martin **, was extremely professional and courteous as he helped me select an replacement washing machine to be delivered and installed the very next day. This was not the firest assistance I received from Mr. Goetz as earlier this year I had an emergency with my home stove, requiring a 911 call. I had to purchase a new stove and Mr. ** and Mr. ** were both incredibly patient and helpful as I decided on the most suitable appliance for my budget and cooking needs.

    Mr. **'s knowledge of the appliances within the PC Richard & Son store, coupled with his courteous professionalism and respect for client service are the reason for my five stars. I have been very happy with the many high quality appliances purchased at PC Richard throughout the years; but the customer service of Mr. ** will always bring out family back to the Bay Ridge location.

    Had a new KitchenAid dishwasher delivered, used once per instructions, the dishes were dirty, and pod did not dissolve. Called for service and was told need a new inlet value, this is a brand new dishwasher! Called PC Richards, who referred me to Service - I told them, I want a new dishwasher. A brand new dishwasher should not have to have parts replaced. They told me, no, that they have to replace the part and then possible exchange for a new dishwasher. That does not make sense, not only am I inconvenienced for at least another week, it does not bode well for this dishwasher that it's damaged out of the box. I was told to take it up with KitchenAid. What kind of customer service is that!

    My LG fridge which was purchased in 2014 brand new went on Thanksgiving. Had to throw away all food in fridge and freezer. Took them over a week to get all parts in. Came out to replace the compressor and motherboard. Woke up next day to a completely warm fridge and freezer. Called them. They cancelled the appointment and told me would squeeze me in the next day. Now this has been 2 weeks today in which I have no fridge and had to throw out food 2 times in a 2 week period. They are not helpful at all! I can never get a manager on the phone. I have a family and a child to feed with a fridge I can’t keep food in therefore have been eating out and I can’t get any compensation on lost food.

    I bought a 70 inch tv and waited to have it delivered. Once calling Pilot (their shipping company) to schedule delivery, I was informed that they can only deliver from the hours of 11-5pm Monday-Friday. They cannot give a more specific range, so you're stuck waiting at home all day. The problem is I work Monday - Friday and at least part of my shift is during this time. They suggested I take a PTO day to receive delivery. When I called spoke to a supervisor I was told it would cost 150 dollars to ship the tv back to them as I told them if it would be this much trouble I didn't want it. I asked for Saturday delivery and was told by the supervisor they would charge me 115 dollars on top of the 75 I already paid for shipping!!!

    Updated on 01/08/2019: On November 29, 2018 I was forced to make a complaint on this website regarding a floor model refrigerator that I purchased in 2014, that after numerous attempts were unable to be repaired by technicians. According to the warranty and a customer rep I spoke with initially a store credit was issued however when I got to the store I was told the credit was only for another unit which became a huge problem because after being told that I was granted store credit I went and purchased a new unit somewhere else.

    The rep did not tell me that the credit was for another unit, as well as per the warranty for floor models store credit is issued anyways. Service manager Kevin ** agreed to issue a 1x courtesy gift card due to the whole confusion however since then until now I have yet to receive that gift card. I’ve sent numerous emails to him, and has left messages and has not received any responses, as a matter of fact the last response I received from him was that my current address that I’ve given the warranty customer reps many times was not put into the system, and the address he had on file was the address I had when the unit was purchased.

    I don’t know if it was mailed out, or that I was told that I will be given the credit via gift card to shut me up; however this whole experience has been totally unprofessional and I am sorry that I ever went to a P.C. Richard, and I definitely should have not bought a floor model. I started to call the warranty again today however it looks as though I have to accept the fact that even though they eventually owned up to the warranty/credit issues my case just isn’t worth it to the company to resolve even though I was told that a gift card will be issued with the purchase price of the unrepairable unit on November 29, 2018 by Kevin ** (service manager).

    Original Review: Bought a floor model Frigidaire with extended warranty, they came out to fix numerous times, and deemed it couldn’t be repaired. I was told that I will receive store credit but not that I had to buy another Fridge with it so I purchased a fridge elsewhere. Now the company is telling me that I have to only buy a fridge, with my store credit that they never said specifically before, and I have only 30 days to do it, so if I can’t afford to use my credit towards another fridge that I now don’t need I lose it. The warranty is a scam, it specifically says in the contract that for display models store credit is issued, it does not say nor was I told when granted the credit I have to buy another refrigerator from them. My last time doing business there, I heard stories but never listened, now I’m screwed!

    Bought a Frigidaire Gallery stove on the 17th of November and had it delivered on the 18th. Everything went fine, the salesman was awesome and the delivery smooth. We needed a stove before Thanksgiving as my old one was not working and PC Richard was able to deliver it before the holiday. On Thanksgiving eve we're getting everything ready for the next day because we had 19 people coming over and we wanted to start early. So we turned the oven on for the first time and to my shock it wouldn't turn on! We did everything the manual told us to do and nothing. Needless to say Thanksgiving was ruin!

    Went to the store the next date to find out that PC Richard has a no return policy on item that are opened. (If I knew that I would never had bought this product.) Plus the item came in the box and the delivery guys unboxed it, making it unreturnable. The salesman told my wife that we would have to wait until the 5th of December to have someone look at the product, not repair it, but look at it! I bought a two year protection plan but still have to wait two weeks before someone could look at it.

    The irony in this is that I work at Best Buy as a appliances salesman. Our policy is that a item could be returned within 15 days of purchase and thought most places were the same, my bad for assuming these things. I only went to PC because they were able to get it to me before Thanksgiving. As a Salesman I would never bad mouth a competitor because things happen, I judge them on how things get resolved. I will update my review after things are settled hopefully, but as of right now I'm pissed and very frustrated. A lemon should be exchange without question, what if I didn't have that protection plan?

    Purchased Electrolux washer and dryer set for apartment September 5th, by October 12th, dryer heating component in dryer unit stopped working. Here's a preview of what to expect from P.C. Richard & Son's 109 years of "honesty, integrity, and reliability". My situation is all under the condition of two under 4 aged sons with lots of laundry to go through and persistent follow ups with PCR&S.

    10/12 - appointment lead time was 11 days. No other options after multiple calls and being sent on a wild goose chase calling 3rd party repair service directly for earlier appointment (Aid Service - which has its own record of 1-star complaints, why work with them?). 10/17 - Still no answers from Aid Service. Local PCR&S store rep left voicemail with no other options than 10/23 service date. How did they get hold of Aid Service? 10/23 - One technician showed up and took one look, said unable to service and that it needed to be exchanged. Informed next steps with follow up with PCR&S. 10/24 - Followed up with PCR&S store, they did not receive paperwork from technician, so they can't do anything.

    10/25 - Called PCR&S store back and was notified that it was not serviced because technician couldn't unstack the unit himself. If it needed to be unstacked and they knew the model being serviced, why did they send only one technician? Perhaps ask that I do it myself to expedite the process? I would have asked a friend to unstack it together. 10/26 - Received voicemail that a part needed to be ordered in order to service the unit and two repairmen will come service the unit.

    10/30 - Repairmen showed up outside of agreed servicing window (childcare timing headache). Repairmen didn't unstack the units. No attempts to repair. They needed a new part to repair the unit. So why did two repairmen show up to tell us what the voicemail already said? Called PCR&S after appointment and they said best case scenario is that the part will come 11/1 or 11/2. 11/5 - AM Follow ups indicates part will not show up until 11/14. PM received email saying there's a delay on the ordered part. So is the part coming 11/14? Or it's coming after 11/14?

    11/18 - Called local PCR&S for updates. The woman cuts me off from my inquiries and as if it's a repeated statement, tells me to call servicing department Monday 9am as that's when they open. Her tip to me was to call at 9:20am, as most people don't get into the office until 9:10 or 9:15am. So much for a 9am start time? Beyond that, she did not want to hear anything else and repeatedly told me she "don't make the rules, I just work here". Zero updates obtainable from her, not even tracking info for the part I'm waiting on.

    It's been 1 month since we've informed PCR&S of the issue. Common online forums points to exchange or repair of said heating component. All calls and interactions with PCR&S have been met with statements such as: "There's nothing we can do for you", "I can't help you, call servicing department", "I didn't create the company policy, I can't help you".

    Customer service that repeats "I can't help you" - not helpful at all. Why spend the money on this department if they don't even want to do what they're hired to do? Whatever happened to honesty, integrity, and reliability? PCR&S have shown none of them through all customer servicing touch points with me, only defensive employees who won't take ownership of their job roles as "customer service representatives" and would rather customers get sent on an endless loop of wild goose chase than to attempt to demonstrate "honesty, integrity, and reliability" to help me solve the issue together. I'm a very friendly and non-agitated customer when things go wrong, but PCR&S's customer service is really frustrating me.

    My wife and I have been air/fan drying all of our family's clothing for the past month and we are continuing to do so through the holidays until PCR&S have decided that they should demonstrate integrity for the quality of products and services they claim to sell and reliability in trust and communications with customers like myself. I hope this review will help potential customers to think carefully about who they support with their hard earned dollars.

    I wished I could have spent my dollars with a company that provides true customer care when things go wrong - acknowledge and listen to my pain points and address them accordingly. I hope this review is the beginning of that acknowledgment for better business practices. Don't shut me out as soon as I've given you my money. Help me find solutions together. Don't waste your employees'/vendors' time and I won't waste yours with these follow up calls and reviews because I don't trust what you're doing.

    Dear Potential Victims of P.C. Richard, Many years ago, this company was something a consumer could value, trust, and depend upon. Not only does P.C. Richard provide substandard service, but the store manager of the Woodbridge, NJ store is heartless, unempathetic, rude, disrespectful, money-driven, and a downright bully.

    Yesterday, I contacted P.C. Richard seeking help regarding a $2,500 purchase I made in September 2018. I requested P.C. Richard's help in remounting my brand new television because I have to switch apartments and I'm not financially able to pay an additional $400 for the service since it's just been a couple of weeks. Furthermore, their wall mounting subcontractor took the television's box contents and original stand which will not allow me to place the television and Bose Soundbar on a television stand.

    As I explained this unforeseen circumstance over the phone with the Woodbridge Store Manger, he constantly interrupted me and continued to SCREAM (on speaker) that "NOTHING IN THIS WORLD IS FREE HONEY" and that "I HAVE TO PAY THE FULL $400 REGARDLESS." Immediately, I was brought to tears and disconnected the call. I contacted the P.C.

    Delivery of 4 Kitchen Appliances including Fridge. The 2 men were extremely fast and professional. In fact, since I was having a contractor install everything, I told them to leave the door off the fridge and the contractor would take care of it. Unfortunately, that is not PC Richard & Son Policy - such is life. They came back after calling management and installed the doors and the fridge in the proper space. Everything was done perfectly. It could not have been better. In my opinion, you should financially reward those who deliver more merchandise per day on average than their co-workers to make sure they stay with you. Not everyone is suited to delivering big items quickly and dealing with difficult people, hence my suggestion.

    I purchased a Whirlpool Cabrio wash machine on May 29, 2017 and it stopped working on October 14, 2018. I purchased the two year warranty with PC Richards and the service company came four days after I called but only to take a look at the wash machine. When I called in for service I told them the flashing code numbers but I guess that was not enough. Now I have wait another week. It is absolutely ridiculous that I have to be inconvenienced!!! What kind of service company is this that they do not have parts. How does a wash machine stop working after a year and half? Are these appliances used and resold or broken. I just don't get it!!!

    In December 2017 we purchased our Samsung dryer and matching washer. Nine months later, it shuts off after 3 minutes. I have called the 1-800 repair service and the earliest they can come out is 10 days after I called!!! And that’s just to look at it, I’m sure they will have to order the part(s) and wait for that to come in, schedule a time to come back and fix it. We are potentially looking at 3 weeks without a dryer I’ve had for less than a year.

    In addition, I have been chasing these people for three days now, trying to see if there’s any way someone could come sooner. They said they would have someone call me and no one has and I even called the manager (Rich) at the Manchester, CT store where I purchased the appliance to see if he could help and he never called me back. This by far is the WORST customer service I ever dealt with. First, going without a dryer (that I paid a lot of money for) for potentially 2-3 weeks with a family is quite difficult but the fact that no one has called me back in the three full days I’ve been dealing with this is despicable. I will be sure to NEVER use PC Richard again for any future purchases.

    When I moved into my current house in 2014, I decided to replace all the major appliances in the kitchen. I went to P.C. Richard in the area, which was a new experience for me, having come from a part of my state where I'd never heard of them before. They had all the appliances I needed, including an induction range. I specifically wanted induction because I am physically handicapped, and the induction stove top does not actually heat up like most stoves. The burners absorb some heat from the pans that are actually what generates the heat, but it is not enough that you can get a bad burn on it if you fall and land on a burner. On top of the fact that they had even the one induction range in stock, which was unusual at the time for appliance dealerships, they offered me an excellent credit arrangement, which allowed me to pay for the appliances over three years without paying any interest on the credit.

    I was happy at the purchase end, which appears to be the case with a majority of the folks who respond here. The great majority appear to be speaking of their response regarding satisfaction with the purchase. I think, to be honest, it is almost silly to give a retailer too much credit for doing what retailers are supposed to do, though. People carry on about how wonderful P.C. Richards is, simply because their salespeople were helpful with the sales and the purchases were delivered in a reasonably timely fashion. In all honesty, that is what retailers are supposed to do, and to carry on about it as if it were a marvel when it happens strikes me as almost silly. I had similar good fortune with the purchases, and while I couldn't reasonably lessen my respect for the company tied to that, it far from makes up for the more important issue tied to appliance sales, and that is product support when things go foul down the road.

    That is where a company either makes it or fails, and I can say without doubt, after my experiences, I will never use P.C. Richard again for purchase of anything. I purchased a refrigerator, over-the-stove microwave, and dishwasher in addition to the stove. I have had no problem with any of the other appliances that I could not deal with readily by reading the owner's manual or calling the manufacturer (they were all Samsung appliances). The stove unfortunately proved to be a different thing. Of course, the fact that the other appliances have worked fine for four years is tied more to the manufacturer than to the seller, but in dealing with the problems, I purchased a ten year warranty through P.C. Richard for the range and refrigerator, and my experience in using those has been sad, to say the least.

    I had problems with the stove the first time within a few months of purchase. As I am physically handicapped, I have times when I am too distracted to do much cooking, and I find other ways to eat. As such, I had not even used the stove much when it went sour the first time. In all honesty, as things turned out, the stove stopped working because a metal bus bar melted in my breaker box. It allowed the stove to get just enough current to light the lights, so I had no idea the power was out, but there was not a 240 W service required to operate a stove. The problem was that even the P.C. Richard repairman, who is supposed to be a professional, failed to recognize the problem was tied to the electrical supply until they went as far as providing me with a second, brand new stove, only to find that it did not work any better, and it continued to show the same error code.

    Of course, I cannot blame them for that problem, and they did go as far as providing me with a second, new stove, but it took the better part of a month without me having availability of a stove to use to cook meals before I was able to cook again, and I think that is absurd. I have used other private appliance repair services and found the work to be done the next day in both cases. The repairman would come out one day to analyze the appliance and take a day to get the parts needed for the repair, and I was back to business in one day--not one month! Beyond that, even though I had purchased a ten year warranty, they promptly informed me that the warranty was null and void because they had to replace the appliance. That was absurd, given that I had only had it for a few months, and to that point it was well within the manufacturer's warranty period, and there really wasn't anything wrong with the stove at all.

    It was as if I, a private home owner, should have been the one to recognize there was a problem with the power supply to the stove, rather than the professional repairman who worked for P.C. Richard. As far as I am concerned, it is his lack of attention or knowledge that resulted in P.C. Richard replacing a perfectly sound appliance. Once the new stove showed the same error code, it struck me as obvious that it must be a problem with the power. I called my electrician to come check it out, he repaired the breaker panel, and the new stove worked fine. So I had two issues with that first interaction with P.C. Richard's repair services. The first was that it took a month of waiting for parts and scheduled repair visits and one cancelled repair visit before they got around to dealing with my problem.

    The second was that, in the end, they replaced a perfectly good appliance, rather than to recognize it was a problem with the electricity, and then wanted me to have wasted my investment in the ten year warranty, when that certainly was not my responsibility to figure out. They were the ones who made a mistake in giving me a new stove, and that even troubled me, because I do not like seeing major things turned into garbage like that, especially when it is not appropriate. And it is plainly as if these people who sell appliances don't recognize that it doesn't fit into life to have to go a full month without a functioning stove. Everything P.C. Richard does is plainly for the convenience of P.C. Richard and not the customer. You have a problem and you wait and wait until they can manage to get the parts and then fit it in their schedule to come to your house and work on the problem.

    I was able with significant forceful communication to get them to reconsider on my ten year warranty, and it recently became necessary for me to apply my service warranty to the same appliance. This experience was worse than the first. The curious thing was that right around the time the second failure occurred, I had pretty much decided it was time to get a different stove and that I would sell this one used to someone for a good deal, if they wanted to get their feet wet with the induction stove. My motivation was that I finally came to realize that for me working from a wheelchair, it was workable but far from convenient to have to reach across the stove top and steaming water or sputtering grease to reach the control panel on the back of the stove top. When I bought the stove, the technology was fairly new, and there were not many options in induction stoves.

    I came to realize that now there were better options, that included stoves with knobs on the front of the stove to control the stove top and two smaller ovens instead of one big one, so it would be convenient to bake at two different temperatures at the same time. In spite of my prior experience with P.C. Richard, I even still gave them the benefit of the doubt and looked to see if they offered any different induction range from what I had bought from them in the first place, but they did not. There came a sale through another company online for a GE induction range product that looked perfect for my use, and I purchased it before P.C. Richard had even started to try and repair the existing stove.

    Things were worse this time than the first. I gave them the stove error code over the phone. They assured me that let them know exactly what was wrong and what parts to get to repair it. I had to wait for the part to arrive and then to schedule an appointment with one of their repair staff. When he finally came, he took a look at the stove and left within five minutes, explaining that they had not ordered one of the parts he would need. He would put the part in for order and schedule an appointment to come back as soon as it was in. I waited well over a week for that, and then I got a phone voice mail that he had some personal problem and had to take the day off, so I would have to reschedule. Because of those delays, I had already had to delay shipment and installation of my new stove twice, as I was anxious to get this stove fixed so I could sell it, and I couldn't move it away from the power supply to replace it if they were to fix it.

    He finally came out with the new part, having left the first part ordered at my house that first day. He put the two parts in, and the stove still did not work. The breaker panel and the power supply to the stove were fine now. In response to all of that he took a closer look and finally found out what had afflicted the stove. A field mouse had found its way to the electrical connections on the back of the appliance and its tiny body was cooked to the terminals, basically shorting the stove out. He would have to order more parts, now to include a replacement power cable, and he would schedule a return visit to get the stove working. I had to delay the delivery of my new stove once again. I contacted an exterminator the next day, and within three days, my house had been treated to eliminate these pests which are just a part of life in the part of the country where I live.

    I waited this one more time for the parts to arrive and for an appointment with him to show up to make the repairs. It was presumed this would be final. He came and put all the parts together, and the stove still failed to function. He advised me that he had done what could be done and that P.C. Richard would credit the cost of the stove back to me in exchange for the option to purchase other items they sell. I had been without a stove for a month and had delayed delivery and installation of my new stove three times just to be told finally that the old stove I had purchased through P.C. Richard was beyond repair. I didn't want to take anything for granted, so I asked him if it would be okay for me to have the new stove delivered and hooked up. He said absolutely. He couldn't be certain when, but if I could have the installers put the Samsung stove in the garage, P.C. Richard would get around to sending someone to pick it up.

    Then he said he couldn't be absolutely certain they would go along with his recommendation, and they might want to try to fix it even though he was confident it was beyond repair. With that, I asked him again to assure me that I would be okay to get the new stove delivered and have the Samsung out in the garage, if someone might want to try to repair it. Of course I do not have a receptacle for an electric range out in my garage. He insisted that I would be fine and that I should get things set up so that I could cook, after a month of being unable. With that, I presumed he meant, that if P.C. Richard decided to attempt to repair the stove again, they would send staff adequate to move the new stove out of the way, put the Samsung back in place, just to assure it was truly repaired when they put any new parts in, and then reinstall the new stove and haul off the old one if it didn't work.

    It was surprising to me, but they had already put me through so much inconvenience for nothing, and he was so confident that the stove was beyond repair, that I took him on his word. I had already set up a delivery and installation of the new stove a few days later, hoping that the Samsung would have been successfully repaired, and the company from whom I bought the new stove had agreed to move the old one out into the garage for me, as I wanted to sell it. Once it seemed clear that the garage was the right place for the Samsung to be and that I could have the new stove installed, I just allowed the delivery to occur as it had been set up. The new stove has been in for a couple of weeks now and is working fine, with all the benefits I foresaw in making the change.

    So, of course, then it had to happen. Yesterday I got a text message from P.C. Richard that the parts were in, so I should call to schedule an appointment for the repair! I called the repair office shortly after getting that message, in order to explain the situation, that I had been informed the stove was not repairable, so I could have my new stove delivered and installed, and that they would need to send someone with the repairman to help move the two stoves if they were going to try to repair it. I informed them that the repairman had informed me that I should go ahead and get the new stove delivered and that my having the old one moved to the garage would not be a problem. I informed them that he did not believe the stove was repairable and that P.C. Richard would be sending someone to take the old stove from my garage.

    The young woman I spoke with was taken aback and did not know what to do with the information. She said she would have to speak with a manager and get back to me. That was unsettling enough, but then I got up this morning to find that I had received an email informing me that I had a scheduled repair on my P.C. Richard appliance and was given a particular date and time window! She had not gotten back to me as promised, at all. Instead, as if I was a non-person, they took to give me an appointment to repair an appliance that I had informed them was out in my garage, without even offering me discussion as to when the appointment fit in my schedule, as they always had previously.

    I was alarmed, to say the least. I called the repair office this afternoon after I got that message to talk to someone about the situation. I informed the fellow I spoke with that I am physically handicapped and cannot move the stove on my own. If it had not been for what the repairman had told me, I would have delayed my delivery, and had the stove moved out after repair, if there was any likelihood of an attempt at repair, but the repairman had assured me that was very unlikely and that it would not be a problem for me to have it delivered and the stove put out in the garage. I certainly would not have intentionally allowed it to be set up this way if I had not been assured by their employee, the repairman, that it was a sensible thing for me to do, because the movement of the old stove by the men who delivered and installed the new one was free, and I had no need to generate the cost of having people come to move the stoves.

    I informed him that I was troubled to see a company like P.C. Richard would allow people to go as long as a month without an appliance as essential as a stove, when they purchased it through P.C. Richard and have a service agreement, but that it was especially alarming when one employee of the company gave me, as a customer a clear cut understanding that I should comfortably behave in one way, and then I am told that regardless of what he said, I stand to lose for having done so. Then the fellow turned around and told me that he didn't believe I was ever told any such thing. The repairman wouldn't have told me that. He basically called me a liar. Then he tried to soften it by saying I must have misunderstood what he said. The implications were clear enough for me at the time that I made sure he repeated himself, and I had no doubt about what he said to me.

    So, here is a company that likes to make a profit selling stuff. The problem is that the sort of stuff they sell is designed not to last these days, so repair is essential. Unfortunately, their repair team is a sad mess. They do not understand that major appliances are a major necessity in modern life and requiring a customer to go a month or more without a functioning stove is just not acceptable. If they are as busy as their schedule suggests they must be, then they are understaffed despite apparently being successful, presumably for the purpose of augmenting profits at the cost of fair and adequate customer treatment and customer satisfaction.

    Now, close to six weeks from first contact, the stove continues to not work. They went as far as to try to blame me for the delay because the dysfunction was caused by a mouse, even though the finding of the mouse was only one of five scheduled repair visits, I had no means of knowing a mouse was back there (the repairman had been at the house three times when he finally found the mouse, and that is his job, not mine), and I had an exterminator in within several days of his finding that, even though the likelihood that a mouse will find its way there again in the future is slim to negligible. Then they scheduled an appointment for me without even seeking my input. I was informed that one agent would speak with managers and get back to me, but that never happened. Finally, I was called a liar.

    If the repairman had not told me what he did (and I don't hold it against him; I think he believed what he said), although I would have been stuck going closer to seven weeks without a stove, at least the presumably repaired stove (or not!) would have been moved out to the garage by the fellows who delivered the new stove at no cost to me. Now if I want to have the stove fixed, I have to pay someone to juggle the stoves, have the new functioning stove not where I can use it until P.C. Richard's repair staff feel like getting here to work on the old one (and presuming that will have any different effect than it has so far). Then I will have to pay someone to move the new stove back in. I am stuck with who knows how many weeks of not being able to cook, in spite of owning a brand new stove, and having things all out of order, just so P.C. Richard can have one more shot at fixing this stove that their repairman told me was beyond repair.

    If they manage to repair it, I will now have to pay someone to move it back into the garage so I can sell it. I am just disgusted and so happy to have learned my lesson about dealing with this company. If you want to feel all warm inside just because a salesman knows how to sell something, be my guest, but I think it's absolutely silly to read most of these reviews. The real test of the water comes not with purchase, when everything is new and shiny, but down the road, when you need assistance, and I have seen just how lame P.C. Richard is in providing service. I will never purchase anything from them again.

    Words cannot describe the pure disgust I have had with P.C. Richard & Son. The company puts an item up for sale that they never actually got, I make a purchase using PayPal. The company finally decides to cancel my order 4 days later after I had called and inquired about it. Fast forward 8 days later, I am missing money from my American Express still, but received partial refund in my PayPal balance. I spent 6 hours on the phone (this is not exaggerated) bouncing between American Express, PayPal, and P.C. Richard & Son. PC Richard said they called Amex to verify the transaction was cancelled so AMEX could release the funds. The CS rep I talked to confirmed over the phone that it was taken care of.

    A few minutes later I get another ghost charge from P.C. Richard & Son for the exact amount I was supposed to be refunded for. So now I am missing 2 charges of $400. The one thing I learned from the hours I wasted on this to get my money back from a company that never had the item to begin with is to avoid them at all costs. Everyone else should do the same.

    In July we purchased two Friedrich air conditioners from P.C. Richard at Broadway and 87th Street in Manhattan. The whole process of the installation for the air conditioners was a nightmare. Each time we had an appointment for the installation, we were told a time of arrival the day before and on the day of arrival we were given a different time. The first day the arrival time was delayed and delayed until it was beyond 7 pm when my apartment building would not allow any deliveries. A rescheduling resulted in the same pattern but they arrived in time to enter. The first air conditioner was installed without mishap. By the time they were ready to install the second air conditioner, I had to leave and left my son in charge with cash payment required for the men to fill in the open space in our casement window with Plexiglas because this air conditioner was smaller than the one it replaced.

    After the men installed the air conditioner they turned it on and found that it did not work. They left it in place and told my son that we had to schedule with our salesman for a replacement. The Plexiglas work they did was atrocious and they gouged and broke the tile on the window sill below the air conditioner. The air conditioner had big dents on its body as did the carton it came in which should have indicated to the installers that it might be defective. It took a while to reschedule the replacement but air conditioner does work. In the meantime I have to hire a professional to correct the Plexiglas work. I don't think the tile can be repaired. I understand P.C. Richard subcontracts to another company for installation but this should not be a reason for them to shirk responsibility for that company's actions. My advice is to never have P.C. Richard install an air conditioner unless you want untimely and shoddy service.
