    Clayton was fairly close to where we would have the homes installed. The people seemed nice in the office when we went in to talk to them. The home buying process was simple and easy enough. They even had to delay the start of it because of the manufacturing delays that were going on for a while, all to do with this COVID thing. But they were good.

    I like that my home is not a brick-and-mortar nail type thing put up from scratch. So, being prefab, it is pretty good. Clayton did a good job. The process took longer than normal because we financed the purchase. So, we had to go through the red tape with getting it financed. But other than that, there was no problem.

    Back in 2003, my mom bought a Clayton home from U-Save Homes in Renos so I knew they are of good quality. I was looking for an actual Clayton Homes dealer and they were the closest one. The buying process was super easy. Ron and Deuce were amazing and they helped out with everything. One guy helped us every step of the way and was always there for us. I love the home. I had some issues with the trim coming loose but that was so minor that I don't even care. I installed my own customization. I put up towel racks, toilet paper holders, a couple of shelves in the bathroom, and some shelves in the master closet.

    I love our Clayton home. As far as the process, it was longer than what we had hoped for. We ran into some hiccups. I live right on Missouri-Arkansas border. We bought the home from Arkansas. Right across the border was the closest one. We had to haul it because the people there didn't have a license to haul it to Missouri. Then, getting all that taken care of, from the time we close the loan and signed all the papers, the house was sitting on the lot. It wasn't pre-ordered. It was just a model there on the lot. From the time we signed the papers to when they got their money, it was still over four months before our home was brought here. But once the home was here, then we were very happy with it. The home was great.

    The home buying process at Clayton was great. The rep really tried to do everything she could to get us approved and what we wanted and all the options in the house that we wanted, in a time a pretty timely manner. However, with us being first-time homebuyers, it would have been nice to know, step-by-step how everything was gonna go. There were a few weeks where we knew we were in a certain process but didn't hear a whole lot of feedback like what was going on.

    The home buying process was good and it went smoothly. It was easy even we had some complications once we got things moved to our location. We had a great home rep. We mostly dealt with the manager down there and he was awesome. For all the problems that we had, he was right there and he fixed it for us. Clayton has done well coming out and fixing the stuff that is wrong. We’re still on this stage. Their people are still trying to get the inside looking good. Those who brought the two pieces did not put them together right. It started raining and now my floor is sinking and it squeaks. The people are supposed to come out on the 19th to fix that for me.

    Clayton Homes got awesome people. They were very nice and very helpful in any questions that we had. Mike was outstanding. I kept in touch with him on what was going on. He would call me and let me know what they were needing, and I would get what they needed. The only thing is, right now, we're having problems getting them to come out and put the trim up that's missing in the house. Other than that, it's great. The home is beautiful.

    I'd recommend Clayton and as a matter of fact, I sold a home while I was up there, and they took care of me. I was up there looking around and showing my friend some homes because she was looking too. I was like, "If y'all would ike, I've got the keys. Y'all can walk with us and I'll show you around." Before I went to Clayton Homes, I have done my research. I came across some other nice homes but the people at Clayton Homes, whenever I talked to them, they really drew my attention because they didn't hesitate to answer any questions I had. They were right there whenever I had a question. I went to the place right down the road from them and they were like, "Oh, yeah, the houses are unlocked. You can go look or whatever." They never offered to come out and walk with us. Whenever I went up to Clayton, they were like, "Well, you can go look and I'll be out there in just a few minutes." And they were out there.

    I was very pleased with them. The customer's experience is what makes the company and the customer is supposed to come first. The other place we went to, for the same house, they were wanting a whole lot more. I was like, "Wait a minute." It was built from the same manufacturer. Clayton is not cheap but you're getting a better bang for your buck.

    The experience with Clayton Homes was terrible and overwhelming. I felt I was bothering them. I had to push and prod for paperwork to be turned in. I ended up running most of the paperwork and contacting people myself. The house sat out here for over a month with no support under it. When the brick people came, it took them two weeks to brick a single wide, where my guys building my deck were done in a day. I still have cracks in my ceilings. I still have crooked walls. The windows are crooked. I can open them maybe an inch. I still have damage to my floors that the manufacturer is supposed to come out and fix and has not. Clayton never did a closing walkthrough with me until after I started calling and reporting problems. The guy came out and he said they'd get that fixed. We've been in here since August and they still ain't done.

    They had been out once and the guys worked for a few days. The guys they sent out were from South Carolina. The one day they were supposed to come, their truck blew up and that was when we told them we’d wait till after the holidays. I haven't heard a word back from them since. Two weeks ago, I called Clayton's office and they were supposed to reach out to the manufacturer for me, and, of course, that didn't happen. I called the manufacturer this morning and I'm waiting to hear back as to when someone's coming.

    I've been making a mortgage on a house that still ain't right. I just want my house straight. If I didn't like it so much, I'da called them and told them to come get the damn thing by now. It’s beyond frustrating. It’s enough to piss off the Pope. Clayton Homes should return phone calls, follow through with promises and hire competent people to do paperwork. It's just a single wide and I didn't spend $200,000 with them but this is my home. I should be just as important as those who are spending $200,000 and $300,000.

    The salesman, Aaron, showed us two houses. It was the Delight and the Bliss. We needed the shortest one for our lot so we chose the Bliss. The process went well. We'd first looked at it, then we looked at other ones. I told them I'd be back. They told me a price which was almost $3,000 lower than anyone else. We sat down with the manager and he explained everything to us. He had the document in front of him and we read through it all. It was simple and he was very upfront with us. It was quick too.

    For the most part, the quality is good. We like the flooring in it though there are a few nail heads sticking up in the floor that you can kind of see it. The walls are fine. They seem to be insulated well. The windows are good too. But some parts of the house are cheaply done. Right now, the doors are warping which is disappointing 'cause it's cold. We've already had to replace both faucets in the house. Some of the door handles loosen up about every couple of months where they screw together in the door itself. If I were the manufacturer, I would try to upgrade my door handles and faucets. Those are something that you use daily. It should be something that's not cheaply done. It's a mechanical device. Clayton and the place that built it are two different entities but it's all part of the business deal.

    Overall, we're happy with the home and Clayton's done us good. I've been impressed with their service and how they've treated us. They were going to send a guy to come put the faucets in but I told them, "I don't want anybody in the house. Can you guys just put that money on a purchase card and I'll go and update the fixture that I want and put it in myself?" They honored that which I thought was nice of them given the pandemic.

    We made changes to the home that we wanted and Clayton did well with that. The process took over a year. We started in March of 2019 and we didn't close until June of 2020. It seemed like it took forever for them to get our home to our lot. There were a lot of things in the background like getting our permits and getting our land subdivided. Then, the home finally arrived. We love the home but I don't feel the quality is worth the money we put into it. Clayton took a lot of shortcuts in building it.

    I like the Clayton houses better than other providers. Their home buying process was good as well. However, the setup crew was awful. They had a skeleton crew and then some of them sold some stuff that came and some other things from the house. Two of my ceiling fans were stolen from my house. Then they tried to tell me it wasn't in here. Robert, the manager said, “We're gonna replace them. No big deal." But then I found out afterward, other things were taken too. But my sales agents, George and Robert, were amazing. George was very patient with me and that's not easy to do with somebody like me. This was my first time buying a home. George talked to me again and said, “Calm down. It's okay.” I would have backed out way before now if it wasn't for George.

    Our experience with Clayton was okay for the most part. However, there was a couple of issues. It took them a lot longer to resolve the issue than I think it should have. We bought the land and the house and it already had a septic system in it. They went in and they put in all new pipes. When they did that, they had one of the pipes going into the tank brought up against the wall. So we had a major issue with it backing up because it wasn't draining into the tank. They had their septic system guys come out and snake it. But that only fixed the problem for a week and then it was backing up again. This went on for three weeks before they sent a second company out to look at it and they had to dig it up and cut the pipes so it would drain into the tank. But their reps were nice and did a good job. They also explained things very well.

I had to call maintenance back for things that were coming too loose and weren't done, like with the plumbing and fixtures coming off. They came and addressed those in a timely manner.

    Jeremy did an excellent job. He was very, very patient. My wife and I had a lot of questions and we also had a lot of ideas we needed to see if we could do or not. He was very good about trying to get us in the exact home that we wanted. He was very, very good to work with and very knowledgeable. He didn't blow a bunch of smoke. He told us what he knew and if he didn't know, he found out the answer for us and he was very prompt with that. The only issue we had was that there was a little bit of a miscommunication with Tom, on date of delivery and how that process is going to be done. That was a little bit frustrating. But once we got through that process, everything went well.

    Clayton Homes is close to where I used to live and seeing good reviews when I did some research, I decided to go with them. Any questions I had, they answered. The whole process was simple and smooth. The only issue we had was with the company that delivered the home, set it up and put it on the concrete slab, where it wasn't completely centered. That wasn't Clayton's fault though. Overall, we liked the interior of the home. We liked the size of the bathroom and the vaulted ceilings. Those are a few of the things that stood out.

    I liked Clayton Homes' financing options. There was another home that we liked at another lot. It was just a little bit better than what Clayton had, but we didn't come to terms on financing. Since Clayton was able to help us out, we went with them. This was our first go with buying a home ourselves. Everything seemed to go pretty smoothly. We had the option to customize. What they had on the lot was pretty well what we were looking for, so we didn't change a whole lot. We did a few extra little things like we upgraded to 2x6 walls, not 2x4 walls and had an extra couple outlets added here and there. They worked with us pretty good. The quality of the build is decent. There are a few little things I'd like to have seen differently. I understand it is a mobile home. I understand it's a generally cheaper build than like a stick-built house. But I thought what was in it was gonna be a slightly higher quality than what we got.

    The home consultant, Teresa, did pretty good. There was a couple of small miscommunications but Clayton came through on it. They didn't leave us hanging on anything. So, as far as that, I'm pretty satisfied, especially for being Teresa's first go at doing this. A little better clarity would have been better but at the same time, I understand it was her first sale and there's a learning curve whenever it's somebody's first time through something like that. Also, a lot of miscommunication was probably on our part. We didn't know what to look for or what to double-check.

    Our salesman, Bill, worked with us for a while till we found the exact right home and I'm very satisfied. We weren't gonna buy anything just to buy something. We wanted what we wanted. As he soon as he saw it, he knew that would be the home for us, so he called me and I came to look. I drove 80 miles to shop with him. Bill knew what I'd been looking at. I almost pulled the trigger on a Fleetwood and didn't. The craftsmanship wasn't there. Once I started looking at the Clayton built homes, compared to the Fleetwood homes, it was like a difference between a Chevrolet and a Cadillac. They're both good, but the thing that stuck out to me was the laminate on the countertops fit perfectly in the Clayton homes and there's an 8-inch gap in the Fleetwood. You notice the little things like that.

    All in all, I've been very happy not just with the salesman, but even with the management. When we had one small issue, I called Clayton Homes and it was taken care of within two hours. I'm in the service industry (I'm a salesman too) and it's hard to get that kind of service anymore. That's why anybody that's looking for a home, I'll give them Bill's name and number.

    When I bought my home in may, it took me forever to get Clayton to replace the front door. There was a guy out of Junction City who did the repair work and it's still not correct. Also, when they took the furniture out of the home when I was sitting down here in Wichita, they dragged something across the front living room carpet and cut a line all the way through from the master bedroom to the front door. I still haven't had the carpet replaced.

    I bought the home without a master bathroom door because Clayton knew they were gonna replace it. They finally sent somebody out the replace the bathroom door but he knocked the replacement over before he installed it, hit the TV which then put a hole in the door. He put the door on and said that he would fix it. That was the last time I saw him and that was five months ago. I don't know who I need to go through for any more repairs. I paid for a five-year warranty, and I'm still in question how long it takes to get something repaired. My experience with dealing with Clayton was fine but I can't get the work done. When they installed the AC the guy who came out said that I have a problem underneath the manufactured home but I have to have a work order. I can't get a work order done for the problem.

    I had visited a couple other places but they didn't have the selection like they did at the Clayton Homes in Dalton where we purchased ours from. We also considered finding the closest dealer and Clayton Homes had that. When we went up to the place there in Dalton, their rep, Chris, went over everything he could to answer any questions. We found a home that we really loved and it was one of the nice ones on the front of the lot. But with the bedrooms on the left side, the master was going to be mine and my husband's, but we needed more space on one side. So we added on an extra bedroom, then we combined two of those bedrooms and made a large master bedroom for my mother that was to live with us. Chris helped us with that.

    Then, we paid our down payment so they would get started and it took them a while to make our home. It was on my birthday, in May, that it arrived to the store for us to go look at it. So the process started from the end of November all the way to May. But that was understandable with the COVID virus slowing everything down. Then for Christmas, they closed for two weeks, which we knew about beforehand. So the process took a little longer than we thought but our expectations may not have been realistic given today's circumstances with the virus.

    So we went and looked at the home that they made in May, then it was June 1st that it was delivered on our property. After that, it was end September when we moved in and a lot of that was due to a lot of rain we were having, so it was hard to get things quickly. There were also a few times when I felt like the communication with Clayton's reps could have been better. But as a new person doing something like that, I was just a little insecure.

    So far, we're very happy with the home and it feels like a solid one. We've been through one really bad storm, the effects of that last hurricane, and we were nervous because it was our first storm in it. Fortunately, the home's out in the field and the woods are backed off from us, so we didn't have to worry about trees falling on us. But we were nervous because the winds got pretty hard for Georgia. Still, we didn't feel like we needed to leave and go get somewhere safer. The home held up really good and there was no damage to it at all. The air conditioning and the heat seem to be really efficient, too. I'm happy with our electric bill. It went up a little this past month, but that's because it's been so cold. But the home seems to be very comfortable and a cozy place. It’s such a pretty home and it has the little built-in front porch on it with the stones on the column. We get a lot of compliments on it.

    It seems like there was no structure in the buying process of Clayton Homes. I had to constantly ask what was going on or try to get things figured out because there was no real communication or how is this going to happen type of thing. As an example, our sales rep didn't tell us that we needed our address until after closing. I came to find out about it only after speaking with the lenders, when I finally got ahold of them. I also had an issue trying to get ahold of and speak with them. It just seemed I was the one who was trying to get things done. And when I would ask our sales rep, he would just tell me that we were fine and that we didn't need the address.

    I also dealt with Patrick there and he was great. Whenever we spoke with him or we had questions, he would help us immediately. Their rep Shirley was amazing as well. Anytime I've needed something, she jumped right on it and got it taken care of for me. But whoever built our house just slapped it together, so there are still some issues with it. But Shirley's been great trying to get everything in order for us and trying to go above and beyond for us. There are something that she's not going to be able to help us get or to fix, but she's sure trying. All in all, I would recommend others to go through another Clayton Homes location. Or if there was a different sales rep there to help, then I would send them to that location again, as long as they didn't have to work with that one sales rep.

After it all went in, the guys showed up and they buried a waterline and left the electrical wire there. I was kind of upset that I still have to hook up my water. I’ve hauled water for so long.

    The people up at Clayton Homes are really nice. They worked with us. Everything we talked about, they pretty much did. The only real problems we had was when the movers bent the hitch and they couldn't move the trailer. I took off work to move that trailer in. That night, the movers called and said they weren't moving it. They pretty much had other things to do. They said their guys walked out, which I think was a lie. So, we hounded the trailer place until they found somebody to move it. Then, they got it out there. Then, they bent the hitch. So, they maneuvered it into my yard and left it there for a couple of days and finally moved it where it was supposed to go.

    Another thing was in the finance part. After all the closing stuff was done, there would be a phone call. When we got the phone call, we’d set up if it’s gonna be a bi-weekly or weekly. But then, they called my wife and said, “Oh, no, ma'am. You were supposed to do that when they did the closing at the office.” I don't know if they ever got it straightened out or not. But it was one of the big things that went off.

    They're gonna have to come out and do some ceiling work because the home's finally settling and the ceiling’s cracking. Those trailer hitch tongues are pretty much specially-made for these trailer houses because it’s an 18 wide. The movers bent ours and you can’t use it. We were told that the mobile home people’s gonna give us a new one. Then, they said, “No, we're not.” We fought with them. We finally got one.They brought it out, but it’s not underneath the trailer like it’s supposed to be. It’s up against our fence because they've already bricked it up and screwed it. You would have to unbrick to stick it under there. Still, Clayton Homes was really good overall.

    Our Clayton Homes salesperson was great. The model wasn't the one we picked. But considering everything going on, it was the only one available at that time. With everything going on with COVID, the salesperson did a really good job when it’s to help us get this done and put in. I do have a ton of issues with the finished product. The trim is already falling off. There are bubbles in the wall. We've had issues with this since the first day. All the countertops are peeling up. Yet, the Clayton guys have come and fixed a couple of things, but with the countertops, one of the guys mumbled something about having to get in touch with Clayton so they could have the manufacturer come out. We haven't heard anything else.

    We're currently working with our salesperson to get scheduled to have some people come out. It's just been really hard because my husband had COVID, and then it's picked up here. So, we've been kind of leery about who's coming in. But there are things that need to be repaired. Like where they joined the living room and the kitchen together, there's a whiteboard and half of it is already coming off the wall. It's like the home didn't settle completely the way it should. My salesperson, though, has been really good about responding to me with the stuff that I've been sending him. It's just trying to make sure because now the rest of us are still in quarantine for 14 days to make sure we don't have the illness, and then getting scheduled.

    On my doorframe in the master bedroom, you can see a gap. When you’re laying down and you look through it, you can see through it. The trim on some of the baseboards are coming off. My biggest complaint is I know they use staples, but I think one person went staple happy because there’s literally a strip in my room and it looks like there’s about an 80-inch on this one strip and there’s nothing but staples. The first person they sent out here put the house too far back. So, that whole backyard is ruined. Then, the inspector later moved the house. They had to ruin the whole front yard to put in the septic. That’s a big issue because where they covered the septic, it’s got a huge sinkhole. The dirt’s caving in there. So, I have to let my salesman know that, too.

    Getting out here is kinda hard because when it rains, it's muddy. So, it's just trying to find the right time. But I can text him anytime and he'll respond. He'll text me periodically. It's just the whole COVID thing, trying to get the weather to cooperate, and then getting everybody out here at the same time to get things done. The major issue to me is the countertops are still bubbling and I thought it was because the house set and it was hot, but they never went back down. It's like they all need to be replaced and it's every countertop in here. Then, my master bedroom will be freezing. My daughter's bedroom doesn't seem to get any airflow. It's super hot in her room even with the air on. The two back rooms are that way. I have to have somebody look at that.

    I was originally gonna build a stick home, but due to the cost and timing, I decided to go with a manufacturer home. After reading about four different home builders, I felt Clayton would have the best building materials that I'm looking for and I like their quality of craftsmanship. I did most of my research myself. I told them what I wanted. I didn't go in there too dumbfounded. I already knew what I wanted. I went like on February 3rd, and by end of June, the house was delivered, which was actually quicker than what I was told it was going to be.

    As far as the home, I did have some issues with them coming and doing the touch-ups. I wasn't very happy with the molding. I have to have them come over twice. But I come to find out that these guys just hire anybody off the street, which I wasn't too crazy about. They subcontract. I finally got one guy that I did like. I have used him on a personal basis with other work. Overall, the experience was great. I would recommend Clayton to someone else. I bought a midgrade home. I'm content with it. The only thing I would've appreciate more was a little bit more follow-up after the sale, but it is what it is.

    We were looking for an affordable home. After doing some research, Clayton Homes offered land home packages, which secured the deal for us. We didn't have the greatest response with Michelle, who originally handled us. But after we voiced some concerns, Matt, the manager, took over and finished everything with us. And then, we had great smooth sailing since.

    After we've been here, everything is so poorer or poor. The walls were insane. The gaps in the drywall and the hundreds of tiny little pin nails in the wall seemed more work than just doing a good drywall. We have two windows that are leaking a bit. I've had a couple of roofing shingles I needed to get renailed down. But we bought the cheapest house so we knew we were getting into some work as we moved in too. But there was more than I originally thought there would be. The biggest thing was the walls. The walls were discouraging and very difficult to deal with. The house was $70,000. And that's all wired up, HVAC, and it's a four-bedroom. The value for what we paid was more than fair. The manufacturer could have put more effort.

    Clayton was nice, and they got me into the home as fast as they could. The home consultant, Scott, was fine. He had some problems with my pay and he wasn't in the office a lot. But that’s something that you expect in this part of the country, so that was no big deal. If people were like me and had to have a place to go, I would recommend Clayton.

    I would tell people never buy from Clayton Homes. I give them a 0.5 rating on a scale of 1-10. We bought a trailer from them and they said they were gonna bring it to us. There were delays and stuff got pushed back and I understand that. But on the way here, the trailer got wrecked. They brought it to my house and it sat wrecked here for almost a month. I waited almost two months for them to even come out and fix the water damage inside. The first month I moved into my house, I looked underneath my trailer and all the insulation was sagging ‘cause I had a water leak inside the house. The house still ain’t fixed right. There are a lot of cracks everywhere. The contractor for the siding was the **. My siding is warped. I ain’t satisfied at all.

    Gregory was my salesman and I can call him every day and he'll answer the phone. But to get somebody out here and do something is like pulling a tooth. Clayton ain’t getting somebody out here and do it. I've been dealing with this since December and I don't even feel like messing with them anymore.

    I purchased a home at Clayton in Huntington, Wv. Thought I found a home that I liked. Well it all went downhill when it was delivered. The first thing when they delivered my new home they messed up my neighbors yard and didn't even have courtesy to fix it. I had to. Then they send someone out to do touch up repairs from the move. That was awful. I have drywall dust everywhere and they didn't even us plastic or anything to cover furniture or flooring. I cleaned all day today trying to get the drywall dust out of my new home purchase. Can't get it off the flooring, also have cracks in the trim. Looks like they did a crappy touch up...

    I thought I purchased a new home and all I got was a mess to clean..That's not all of it..The contractors said they blowed out the water lines and everything was good.. That was a lie. We hooked up the water and the pipes was busted and it messed up insulation and plastic..Nightmare not over yet. Furnace doesn't work. They didn't even put a cover over it. I have wires showing. Both of my doors won't shut properly. My new floor looks like it has places that tore and they glued it back. I am really not sure if the mobile home is set up right.. I am scheduled a walk through tomorrow. I will give update on how long it takes to fix issues. So be aware of what you purchase. I will update review if clayton home fixes all of my issues. Also don't fall for the 2500 gift card. It's not a gift you pay for it.. False advertisement!!!

    We liked Brock, the guy that was selling the Clayton home to us. The home-buying process was smooth overall. After we had got approved for the home, it took so long because of COVID. Brock did his best. But he only could do what he was allowed to. We found out other things from other parts of it like the finance people. They had lied to us. It has nothing to do with Brock at all. He told us everything and what he told us was true.

    My wife was also saying that when we had this home, we had purchased it with the agreement that they're supposed to come in and clean it and that they were supposed to have it to where it was like a clearinghouse where everybody comes in and congratulates who comes into your home. None of that happened. We cleaned it ourselves. Nobody came to the house but to set it up, run the water, get it set up, and leave. We had promises that we would be reimbursed for permits that we put out there. No one reimbursed us for it. We were told that we were going to be given a $500 gift card. We have not seen that card. We were told that we would have a $500 check. We did not see that thing. There were so many things that they promised us that did not happen. Most of that was on a guy by the name of Clay.

    Right now, we're better off since we're dealing with West Monroe. They've really communicated with us really well. The issue we had was that lot in Monroe was closing down when we went through buying ours. So, Brock’s hands were tied. They laid off all the service people and closed down. He was there by himself. So, he did everything he could possibly do.

    Now, they moved into West Monroe. We've had issues with the house. They've done what they said they would do. If they didn't get the materials in, Both Cathy and Brock has called me and said, “Look materials didn't come in.” I'm good with that because Brock has not really lied to us at all. Cathy and Brock along with the service guy, Scott, have really went out of their way to make us happy. But then, Clay lied to us about everything. Brock apologized for him.

We've had to have Clayton come back out several times and fix some things. And then it just seems to be like a return process of them fixing stuff.

    The home was on a piece of property that we were looking at. It was a brand new home on brand new property. And it fit what we needed. I had a real estate agent that had it. He was great. But he did forewarn me about Clayton Homes. It was horse property. It was 1.37 acres, in a nice spot. The kids agreed on it, we agreed on it. So, we went ahead and got it. But I'm a little disappointed in the way it was made. To pay that much for a modular home, the quality and craftsmanship feels awful. I let Clayton know. Maureen, the lady that does the booking and checks in on me all the time because they have the year warranty on it, is Johnny-on-the-spot. But it doesn't matter. When they come out, they never fully fix the problem right. They are supposed to come out and fix everything. I'll see how that goes.

    Clayton Homes was recommended by a family member. The process took a couple of months. Because sometimes, I was like, “No, I can't pay that much.” They worked with me and then that was when we closed. There was carpet in some of the rooms. But I wanted no carpet in any room. I let them know, and they did. They are coming out in January because one of the panels on the floor in the living room isn’t on right. And you can hear it whenever you step on a certain spot of it. They are gonna come out and fix that. And then, there were some parts of the floor where it was torn. It's not like actual wood. And some parts were lifting, but they said with the AC, it would be better. But it’s like a big bubble. They said that they are going to come in and fix that. But it wouldn't be until the end of January. Other than that, everything went well. I like my room, and I also like that have my own bathroom.

    I just moved here to Tennessee and the price of homes was just crazy. I couldn’t afford them. Clayton was the cheapest way to go for a place to live. The consultant, Beverly, was good, very friendly, and she covered all the bases. I just had to have them come out a couple of times and fix a few things in the home. A lot of it was trim not being stapled down correctly. The toilets were crooked. They came out and fixed those. In the master bath, there were cracks in the grout on the corners and it was from shifting where it was being moved. They corrected that. There was a backdoor that was damaged and they replaced the backdoor too.

    The gentleman that has been coming out to repair the issues wasn't very friendly at first. He just came in and did his thing. But the last time he came, he was more friendly. I was telling him things that needed to be fixed. He said he had to order the part. I had to stay on top of it and I had to keep calling Beverly telling her that the guy was supposed to come out and fix this.

We went out and we looked at all these beautiful homes that they had. We went back and we got all the plans for the different ones that we were looking at. They said they could help us. They got our hopes up then said they couldn't hep us. We never bought anything off the lot and we were written off.

    We were driving to Conway and we saw the Clayton Homes sign. You hear that name, you think about it, and you want to go check it out. We told the rep Rachal what what we were looking for and how much we were looking to spend a month. My husband and I live paycheck to paycheck. Rachel gave us a little map of their lot and said we could look at houses that would be within our price range. We did that and we got exactly what we wanted for the exact amount of price that we were able to pay a month. We used Clayton for that fact that Rachel pointed us in the right direction knowing that we have never done this before and not knowing what to expect and what to look for.

    Every time I call Rachel, she called me back and was very prompt. Whenever we made the punch list, they had it ready. They had somebody out there to fix whatever problems we had. If I sent Rachel a text for any kind of question, she promptly texted me back. If she wasn’t there, there was somebody there that could answer the questions that we had. They had really excellent customer service. Overall we're very much impressed with them. We absolutely love our home too. We wanted all wood floors and didn't want any carpet anywhere. We didn’t want to have to wait five or six months for different colors so we did the color of the one Clayton had ready on the lot, which is okay because we liked it.

    My girlfriend flew by and told me about Clayton. The way that their homes look are very modern and like regular houses. They're roomy. Inside and outside, they look like a regular house rather than a trailer. My girlfriend liked them. Also, the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff made me feel obligated. I bought the Isabella. The quality is good but not great. You don't notice a lot of things when you purchase the home, but you don't know it until you really get it there.

    The siding is not like the thickness of the siding on a normal house. They're very thin and fragile, and mine keeps blowing off. And I got a skirt. I paid good money for it. My modular house is 60 feet long, and the skirt is long. You just put the skirt in with some screws, and they got a little track. All of that is very flimsy. Any little wind that blows, it blows it off the track right there at the bottom and the screws come out. And the track is only a quarter of an inch so it's easy to come loose. But other than that, the homebuying process was great. We talked to other manufacturing companies. Clayton helps you with everything from start to finish. But with other manufacturing companies, you had to do certain things yourself, like sometimes you would have to call the people to put the septic tank up on your own. But Clayton took care of all of those needs, and that's very helpful, and time-consuming too for them, but not for the buyer. They made it very easy for the buyer.

    My mother-in-law and my boss both bought homes from Clayton. We went there with them and they were friendly and helpful, and were willing to answer any questions. My wife saw the floor plans online. It didn't have any inside pictures. But they told us that we would go to this website, and then we could choose a color scheme. We were able to choose and pick what we wanted in it and do the optional stuff, like the extra bathroom and the upgrades in the master bathroom. However, our shower leaks and it still leaks. And the guy said, "Well, just don't spray water in that corner." We got a three-year-old, so it's hard not to. And they had to cut some of the paneling out to get it to dry out. It has been a month now and we still got the paneling missing out of our bathroom. Other than that, the total experience was awesome.

    The home buying process with Clayton Homes was awesome. The sales lady, all the help and the staff up there were phenomenal. Regarding the home, I'm pretty dissatisfied. We bought a demo unit. It has a great build. I needed to get it off the lot. We didn't have to wait for the manufacturer and we got some money off on it. It was a perfect deal. They got it out here and got it installed quickly. We're having a lot of problems though. We keep calling them, and they'll come out and they'll do all the repairs.

    The front storm door won't stay closed. When the front door was closed, you could see light coming through it. They've already worked on that once or twice where the two halves marry together. There are issues with the flooring. There's like a trim molding that goes across it and that keeps popping up. Back in where the carpet’s at, there's like a recessed area where you can fill it in-between. They said somebody from the factory was gonna have to come out.

    Also, the floor wasn't level. When you would walk on it, you could hear a creaking or almost a popping sound. They looked underneath it. They said that the manufacturer was going to take care of it. Now, it's getting worse. My concern is we spent all this money, and we got into a loan. Essentially, even with it being a demo unit, pretty much, it was brand-new. I'm concerned that 10 years from now, I don't know how much further downhill this thing potentially could go. They come out and they do repairs. Sometimes, the repairs work. Sometimes, they don't.

    We were in a unique situation because we had moved out here to the country. My wife was working out-of-state at the time. Me and the boys moved out here in an RV with the intention on building. And through nothing on Clayton’s part, unfortunate events would come up. We had made the decision. “All right. Well, to get a quicker turnaround, we're gonna consider the modular home.” It's kind of mixed emotions because it was great. I've had 2,500 square-foot of belongings in storage containers. So, getting to move into somewhere, and get all that stuff out, and not be in a camper was phenomenal. At this point, I probably wouldn't really recommend anybody to get a modular home. They're just not built as well as kind of what was advertised.

    The home buying process with Clayton was great and my satisfaction with the reps was good. I dealt with Chase Wise and they were awesome with it. I bought the home during Covid so it was a different and unique situation that we didn't get to do the open house deal like normal but everything else was great. I had to go out there when we did the open house and get the keys from Clayton Homes because they couldn't come out during that time. I understood all that. They explained everything to me so that was part of their goodness. There was no hidden anything. They were totally open with me the whole time with it.

    I just wish at times during certain steps, they would have come up and said that they were fixing to do things instead of saying that my home would be there and then, they would do this and that. They told me everything they were gonna do but not when they were going to do it. I got a call one morning after they'd put the concrete down and they poured a slab part. A guy also called me one morning and said that they just hooked onto the first half of my modular home and they were headed my way. Then, they would get the second one after that. I told them that I would call in and take off work that day. I was not being informed about the timing of when things were going to be done and we were getting quite a bit of rain and stuff at the time as well. If I could have had 24 hours notice, it would have been great.

    I've recommended Clayton to several friends and three of them has already purchased from them. My experience with Clayton was good because they made it simple. I didn't have any credit issues so that was a big plus too. That helped things go smoother because it was almost an immediate deal. They ran it and said that I was all clear. My credit score runs about 780 which they said was a platinum and they don't usually get those.

    Everything went well with Clayton. They are one of the major sellers around this area and it seems like they have a reputation of being better, like the higher end as far as mobile homes go so I went with them. I didn't want the hassle of trying to build a house on my property so it seemed like a good tradeoff. I chose the model that I got because it had a more open design. It's a larger open area. It has a shower and a bathtub in the bathroom versus just a shower. I also chose to have gas furnace and gas stove because I have free gas on my property. Everything's nice. It's got regular drywall ceiling and drywall paneling. In mobile homes, that's kind of rare. But the place wasn't cheap either.

    Clayton offered a home and land type of loan through other people that they utilize and that sounded great to us, so we went with that. However, the whole deal did not go too well for us very quickly. The first gentleman that was dealing with our stuff ended up quitting. They handed it over to the manager, and we ended up dealing with him the rest of the time and he did not contact us at all. I had to contact him to try to figure out information. We asked for the house to be ordered in October and it didn't get ordered until I contacted them two months later. It was when I was trying to check in and figure out where our house was and when it would be prepared and ready.

    As far as the construction went, the manager did not have any set schedule for it. It was like just have the third-party company come out and do it whenever they want to. There were a couple of times that I caught the manager in lies because he said, “Oh yeah, somebody had been out there, and it's too wet for them to bring the house.” I called him out on it. I told him that I was sitting there and nobody ever came out there nor had it rained. It was a couple of things that went south for us when it came to that. We finally got our house in and it took him quite a long time to go up and close on the house park in Victoria, Texas. Other than that, my understanding is that he got terminated and we ended up talking to another person.

    The guy that got terminated told us to go ahead and move in to the house. When the new person came in, she's like, “Oh, you're already living in it. You're not supposed to be living in it.” We also barely got our book, saying, “Here you go. Here's your house. I'm glad you closed on it.” It was quite a roller coaster for us. We didn't even get our 30-day grace period of making sure everything works. There were a lot of things that they had to come fix after the house was sent there. One of the contract companies, a third-party guy, told us that it was a house that came off the lot, and they didn't even order our house. We had to go through that process as well.

    When the house got set, they had to come back and do all of the trim around all of the windows. All of it had to be re-done. The doors got put up and they were put up by different-sized screws. I had to have them come in and re-set all of the doors. When I asked for one of the doors to be replaced, they asked me if they could just putty it and put it back up. I absolutely refused that because I paid for the house. There were no chains for the ceiling fans as well, so we had to get that on order.

    A couple of weeks went by and we got some heavy rains. It ended up flooding inside of our house through the windows because they were not caulked. They had told us that, “Well, you can just caulk the windows yourself.” and I said, “No, that's not part of the agreement.” They came out and they caulked the windows, and I'm hoping that we don't have mold in the future. If people ask me if I would ever do business with them again, probably not. That's how angry I am.

    Everything went about as smooth as can possibly be expected with Clayton, considering the circumstances. They were finishing up the job right when the COVID lockdown occurred. The guys scurried and did what they possibly could do to get us in the home on time. It was an unusual buying experience but these guys could not have done any better than what they did to get us in. They got us in right when we requested and they busted tail to get the job done. We were going back and forth with the factory because we had made about $40,000 in upgrades and changes to the interior of the home. So, they were doing different things. It was not a cookie-cutter home where they could say they've done this thing 100 times. They were doing some nice changes for us. I've turned a few people onto Clayton already. It's a big purchase and I did a lot of research. They've got the best package out there right now.

    My parents went to Clayton Homes here in Springfield as I was growing up. I’m also a trucker so I drove past the one in Lebanon. Seeing that they had a good deal on a trade in, I drove up and that's where we checked out. My rep, Mike, was really good. It was pretty quick on the closing part of it. We got the display model and it all went fairly smooth. I wish I would’ve customized it but that was right when the pandemic happened. The shops that were building the places were all closed down. Now that we've been into it for a while, there are a few things in the house that I feel that are very cheaply put together. When we first moved in, I had to go through and fix a lot of stuff. But it could be with it just sitting on their lot for a year or two and people going in and out of it.

    It took the contractors three or four weeks to get the home moved in and set up. They didn't fix my yard very well whenever they left so now I've got rubble in my yard that I've got to go through and fix. They should have left my yard in better shape. They were also talking about possibly charging me more to move my house down to where I did because they thought they were going to have way more issues if they were gonna have to go through a neighbor's field. They were moaning and groaning about these things. I had to fix the electric by myself. I paid $13,000 for it to be set up and moved so I don't feel that I should have had to pay any more for them to come out. I was being charged for new water lines and they weren't gonna do them. They did fix the siding but they broke it. They backed the truck into it and hit a guardrail moving it. I don't think they were very professional.

    Some friends of mine were looking into getting a mobile home and they recommended Clayton. I went and talked to them and they seemed to be helpful. I tried to decide what I wanted and they asked me questions. They worked with me well. The lady at Clayton named Christy helped me find the kind that I wanted. She also said that Clayton was a good company and that they build good mobile homes.

    I did a little bit of customization. Clayton looked into it because I showed them on the website where they said they had several customizations. I wanted to do those and Clayton tried to get them to work with me on it. But they said that they couldn't do customizations so they didn't do them. But it worked out where the rooms were open. They were more of a square instead of cut-up rooms and I was losing a lot of space.

    It took a whole lot longer than I thought it was going to. I ordered it and they said about three or four weeks, I'd have it out there. They were right. In about three weeks, I had it on my property. But it was probably another almost two months before I was able to move into it. Even when I was moved in, they were still working on it. They were still putting up blinds and getting it leveled up. I wasn't quite too happy about that. There were a few things here and there that were delayed.

    There were also a few little things. The water pipes had to be wrapped but they were exposed. I figured when I paid the plumbers to hook everything up and it cost me a fortune that they would do all that. But it ended up they did not do that. It was not required by them so I ended up having to do that myself. They also dug all my piers and it was like a week later before they poured my concrete so they were all full of water. They had to pump them out and it took longer. But all in all, it worked out. Clayton was pretty good with a lot of stuff. They've told me quite a bit that was upfront. I went ahead and did the plumbing and electrical separate instead of putting it out on my loan so that was very helpful too.

Also, instead of making sure that they've done the right measurement, they filled the corners where the moldings at the ceiling meet with some pipe caulking and moved right on. And the cabinets aren't square. The doors are crooked on some of them. The craftsmanship of what the factory did wasn't that great but other than that, everything went well with the dealers.

    I liked the style of Clayton Homes and how everything looked and how it was built. I was very pleased with the home buying process. They made sure everything was okay. I'm happy with the quality of the home. Kenny, the rep, checked on everything and he was super.

    Clayton Homes has a good and easy process. Everything went smoothly with the home buying process. My home consultant was good. She was very helpful. She answered the phone all the time. I even called her at like 8 o'clock one night, and she answered the phone and answered my questions. I had some issues when I first moved in. Whenever you move to a home, there are things that are kind of out of place. But they responded quickly. The maintenance guy came and fixed everything. Every time I called back, they came out right away.

    I'm happy with the home. But trying to go through Clayton to have it put up was like pulling my own teeth out. We closed on it in September, and we were told that Clayton would walk through what was happening. We had heard that it was typically somewhere in 45 to 60 days that a house would be delivered out here, be set up, and we had an estimated completion date of sometime in January. They are already pre-made in the factory. Nothing new, nothing too crazy, about three months.

    In September, we applied for the building permit. We closed September 19. Around October 13th, we called because we were like, “Hey, we haven't heard anything. We're trying to speak with the agent we had gone through. They were like, “Oh, well, we're glad you called. She doesn't work for us anymore, and your building permit was rejected. And we've been meaning to get back to you.” Our building permit was rejected and it sat on her desk for two to three weeks, no idea, without them trying to reach out so we could get the issues corrected.

    We fixed the issue with the building permit. The house was delivered to the lot around December. It’s a two-piece home that they have to seam together. It sat out on our lot for most of December. No work was being done, nothing was being told to us. Clayton came out here one day, did the block foundation around and got it all seamed and put together, and it was a slow process. We didn't move into the house until beginning of April. Six months for a modular home. During the process, we had a lot of issues with the contractors.

    Everything was going smoothly and then the bank contacted us in January who we got our loan from. And they were like, “Hey, we were told that this was supposed to be done in January. We need something explaining why we need to extend this out or we’re foreclosing the loan for it not being completed.” We had to scramble and get with Clayton and talk to them. They didn't know too much about it, but they got with them and got that extended out.

    When we had closed, we had agreed, in the closing document, there was supposed to be a 6x16 covered front porch. I guess the general manager was handling it since we didn’t have an agent because that agent quit. The way I found out that that wasn't going to happen was I saw them building the wrong sized porch on the house. I called Clayton. I told whoever that was working that day. And she was like, “Well, let me call them and see what's going on.”

    She called me back a few minutes later, “Hey, I can't get ahold of any of the contractors out there working. Can you go over there and just tell them to stop working? I have to call the general manager and figure out what's going on.” So, we told them to stop, and they were like, “They can’t. Look, just let them go on and finish. If need be, we'll just tear it off and put the porch that you’re supposed to have on there." I was like, “All right, fine. Yeah, sounds good.” A few days earlier, we were told, “Hey, we overestimated your project by $6,000.” I'm like, “That's a big overestimate. But hey, it happens. We're all human. Whatever.” We had signed agreeing that our principal would be reduced by $6,000.

    Then the General Manager, David, called my wife and told her, “Hey, that wasn't part of your loan agreement. That's on the closing documents. There's no word on it. If you want to refile through Cascade, you can do that to have that porch put on. But there's nothing we can do. They’re expecting a 4x6 porch. Not the covered porch or anything. There's no money left in the budget.” I was like, “That's weird ‘cause we specifically stated that to the agent when we purchased to start doing the closing documents.”

    I called the bank. I was like, “Hey, what happened with this?” Because we're looking at the process of trying to get it added back in.” The bank told me that they called the general manager and they told him, “Hey, you're $6,000 under budget. What project wasn't completed?” He was like, “Well, this is what we've done.” The bank asked him, “It shows here in the documents that they're supposed to receive a 6x16 covered porch.” The general manager told the bank, “No, that's not the case. We're not doing any other land improvements in lieu of it. Just refund the $6,000 off the principal.” When I talked to her and found that out, I was extremely pissed off that he called and lied to my wife, and that I had to call the bank to find that out.

    And then when we tried to get it corrected, they didn't have any contact with their contractor. Because we don't have a sewage system out here in the county, we had a septic tank put in. They installed the septic tank through my front yard. So, I'm no longer in compliance to be able to do the 6x16 covered front porch. When I talked to the manager about it, his excuse was that it was listed last in the closing documents and he didn't read it.

    And then, the contractors left a ton of trash out here on our property. It sat out here for about a month, pile of pallets where they got the blocks and whatever materials. My wife and father-in-law, while they were trying to clean that up, found one of the contractors had taken a Walmart bag, pooped inside of it and used a work rag to wipe himself, and just threw it there and left it. They had a Porta John that we had to pay for as part of the construction process. Talking to the county, because of the way the septic system was set up, and the way Clayton's contractor did it without consulting us or anybody, we can now never put on a bigger front porch. It will be too close. It will encroach upon the septic system. Go to anybody else.

    The overall home buying process through Clayton was confusing. They need to set up a system to where they could explain more to first-time homeowners who don't have multi million dollars but could invest in small homes. They really need to upgrade some of the stuff, or you’d be blindsided when you go in. You're really excited about buying these trailers, getting something for the first time, and nobody really sits down and helps you get through it. They could have a better salesperson at explaining the whole process.

    Their sales representative absolutely need to not work with people who don’t have money because he wrote me off the first time. I worked with another rep when I went and started the one in Opelousas, and if it wasn’t for her, I probably wouldn’t have bought from Clayton Homes. She was friendly. She was nice. When I walked into the house, I expected it to look just like it was. The quality of the build is horrible. I called and spoke with the rep, and they addressed some of the issues.

    They should be ashamed of the countertops in this house. That ain’t nothing but a piece of cardboard that they put together. I understand that this is for people that’s just learning how to buy, but they could do a better quality than that. I just replaced it because they kept breaking. They kept replacing them with the same cheap ones that we buy from Walmart. As far as the flooring, I could feel where they didn’t glue it all the way down together because it’s gapping and this trailer is not even that old. My whole thing is that they need to help people like me. Just because I started out buying a small house does not mean that I won’t go back and buy a bigger house. It was supposed to be an exciting experience, but it wasn’t. I wouldn’t buy my second house from Clayton Homes.

    My sister bought a home with Clayton and I liked her home. But her process was much better than mine. Hers was smooth and issues were fixed immediately. Mine has not been an easy one. It took a lot longer than anticipated. I was told that I would be in the house first by Thanksgiving of last year then it was Christmas of last year then it was February. I got an exact date in March. I gave my landlord notice and I arranged for movers. I got to Delaware and my house wasn't ready. This was in the first height of the pandemic. I had to live in a hotel for three and a half weeks with two dogs, which was not cheap. There was no food and only one change of clothes. I spent a lot of money.

    I'm dealing with Clayton right now and they're basically refusing to reimburse me. It has not been a good deal. For every new home, there's a punch list. I moved at the end of April of this year and I still have punch list items. I get that there's COVID and I don't want a bunch of strange people in my house. But there are just certain things. For instance, I have a gas fireplace that doesn't work and it's getting cold. Clayton knows this. I'm still waiting for someone to come fix it.

    Also, I ended up talking to a district manager but he was less than helpful. He was very combative and was trying to put things that were not done in the house on me. For instance, there was no garbage disposal. He apparently checked my contract and said they were not gonna come and put in a garbage disposal at no charge to me. I've got a 30-year mortgage and I'm paying for that garbage disposal for 30 years. That was included in the price of the house. It's just ridiculous things like that. I don't know who he is used to dealing with and whether he really thought he was snowing me. Maybe it's because he's a man and I'm a woman therefore I must not understand these things. There has not been a lot of satisfaction.

    My wife and I were in the process of buying our land and we were undecided if we're gonna build or buy something to put there. We were looking around and we happened to be driving by Clayton Homes on the Gulf Freeway in Houston. Jennifer was our rep and she was great. It's just we had some other issues and a lot of it had to do with COVID starting then it flared up. That delayed us big time with the contractors. The contractor that Clayton used for us to get our land improvements was also a big mess. There was a lot of miscommunication and dragging of their feet. They were not communicating with Clayton or with us to let us know what was going on. I had to step in myself. A lot of the county stuff was shut down for a little while so I had to keep checking to see when they were gonna open up. We're renting somewhere so we're trying to not pay rent and get our mortgage started at the same time.

    Finally, the counties opened back up to do inspections and surveys. The contractor was sending us emails like, "How do you know? Who told you this?" I'm going back and forth with them. I'm calling them every day to find out because we're trying to get moved into our home. They weren't checking on anything. They were just waiting until they felt like doing stuff. Overall, the experience was good. But I would recommend everybody to do their own land improvements if they can instead of having somebody else do it for them. They could pick their contractor. We couldn't do that because of our financial situation so we had to roll that into our loan.

    We were looking for an inexpensive home to purchase for our daughter, and very quickly. Clayton Homes had a model that we liked. We liked the floor plan and the price was competitive. When we got started with them, everything went really well. We were trying to find out when the home was gonna be delivered. Then COVID just started and that kinda messed stuff up. So, I couldn't blame them for that. We had to call and push it along in terms that we still need that house delivered because everything was ready. It ended up turning out okay and it got set up with no problems.

    We still have an issue with the stove. We filed the warranty with it, but the stove company is not responding, and Clayton hasn't stepped in to help us resolve that. There's also a leak that they've been out twice to fix on the one door, and it still sometimes leaks when the rain hits it a certain way. My daughter can't get anybody on the phone. When we couldn't get ahold of the people and we couldn't get them to come out and repair the stove, I wished that Clayton would have stepped up and said to swap the stove out for us or do something to help us get ahold of the manufacturer of the stove. They just threw that ball into our court and said sorry.

    My daughter lives in Tylersville and Clayton Homes was close. I worked with several people there and they didn't know things. Then we finally got there and I called them back and asked questions. I was really shocked that if Clayton told me that I didn't qualify for the particular home that I looked at, then why did it take me to call them back a week later after I felt like I was no good and kicked to the curb. That should have been a salesman point already. They should have already been ready to sell me something instead of me having to go back because when I went back, I could have gone to another one.

    But once we got past all of that, we were buying. We were able to meet what we needed to meet and get down what we needed to get down. I purchased a private property so I'm fine with it. I love my bathroom. I've never been in a home with two bathrooms. I’ve always been in a small home and one bath, and that just rocks my world. I feel like I am a queen because it's bigger than my bedroom. I also love my floors.

He works for Clayton now and when we were looking around, we saw him. He's a real good guy so we ended up buying from him. It was really Adrian that sold it. They also gave us a better deal ‘cause we were going through him. The place next door had a trailer exactly like it. They went down lower than what the people next door did. We bought three of them from Clayton and I've had good experience with everything except one time. It was the customer service after the sale where they took forever to get my skirting.

    I looked at Clayton on a day that it was 102 out. I had gone inside and inside the building, it was like 76 degrees and there was no electricity hooked up to it. It meant that it was well-insulated and that was probably one of the biggest reasons why I chose Clayton. I got a three-bedroom and two-bath unit. Their third bedroom was bigger than on some of the models that I had looked at. Getting everything finished was a little slow but there were some extenuating circumstances so it wasn't all their doing that took so long. However, I'm not too happy with Clayton Homes right now. With the COVID and everything else, I've run into a thing where I had to pay medical bills instead.

We order our home, our master bath was wrong, no bookshelves were not our living room. They tried to tell me how to dig hole for house, spent a lot of money and still did not get right.

    We had to do hearing for house on my land and they did the wrong size unit. So we had to wait another month to do again. Unit got on our land in October and they did start on it until end November. They kept lying to us about inspection on our deck that they would not come out because of holidays. I met inspector out there and he told me because the people they had out there did not know what they were doing so that why he did not pass. They messed my floors up and have not fixed. It took us 2 months to get our keys to house once we moved in which was in January. We did get them to pay to payments because the bank makes you pay payment once the unit is on your land for 30 days. So they wanted me to pay and we were not even in our house and they will not give you a date on when it will be done.

    My house a year later still does not have final because they never came back and graded and put seed down because they failed for that. There was another couple at same time also they did not finish their house either. They ended up finishing themselves. I also talk to another friend that when they deliver their trailer they put huge hole in his put on his lot. Also took them forever to fix that. The staff does not know what they are doing.

    The home-buying side with Clayton was easy and convenient but the biggest issue was they came out and replaced the original door that was on it. I wasn’t aware of it and when I came in, I noticed immediately that the door wasn’t shimmed correctly. It wasn’t gonna keep water out because they didn't seal outside. It took about six months of hassle, and back-and-forth, and them sending their repair guy out to try and fix it. But he never did.

    They had to send the factory out to replace the door or doorframes, the studs in the walls, the boards, the seals, and re-floor and re wall. It was kinda sagging in the middle. I work on the road a lot, so every time I come in every two months, I would call them and say it's getting worse. Also, the floor was creaking because it gets wet and swells, and then it dries. It sinks.

    The maintenance guy got sent back out to repair it again and I walked in and I saw what he was doing. He was trying to use three-inch wood screws to screw into the studs without shimming the door properly and he wasn't sealing the door. So, it’s making the AC run all day. And then, it's gonna leak through, and so on and so forth. The factory came out and got it fixed. I'm gonna go through and re-floor the whole place because they split the linoleum in the living room and separated it from the living room and hallway, and put these dividers. And there are loose spots on the floor where they pinned it down to keep it free-floating.

    I went with the farmhouse layout. I really liked the looks of it. But purchasing the house was a nightmare. They put my house in the wrong spot and they had to move it. They were arguing with me and threatening me. They said they were gonna leave the house sitting where it was. It was bad. Clayton should set up where somebody comes out and looks at the property before they make a deal, and gets all their facts before they say they are going to do it. People considering purchasing from them should make sure that they get everything written down on paper.

    My wife saw Clayton Homes on the highway, and wanted to stop in there and look at what they offered. She was well set on Clayton and nobody else so we decided to go with them. I'm happy with the franchise owners but the salesman needs a lot of training. He needs to work with maybe only Spanish-speaking people. I couldn't understand him half the time. If I needed to ask questions, I asked somebody else. If you take the salesman out of the equation, I'm happy with everything else.

    For the price of the home, it's the quality I expected. We tried to get something better but our credit wasn't good enough to get the one we wanted. Once Clayton gets everything fixed and everything that's wrong, it's a good house. It's growing on my wife. She likes it and we had a couple of things customized. Clayton Homes itself and the corporation and the other people at the office are doing me right on fixing everything that was wrong on the trailer that didn't get installed right. They're coming out. I had some people or a guy from corporate. The factory called me and went over what needs to be repaired. I'm very happy with that. It's just my experience with the salesman was not optimal.

    I went by a couple of companies but I didn't like what I saw. Then I went by Clayton, I pulled in, and I ended up buying from them. They met my needs. I like the way the house was built. I had a great experience. They were nice and professional. I had a good time. The customer service is great. Everything worked out okay.

    Clayton Homes Waynesville NC was terrible. Once we found the home we loved, we went to their location in Waynesville. It started out great until we were told we had to choose a different home because their mover came out to look at our property. We were never informed when the mover would come out. We wanted to make sure he was aware of the grading that will be happening to our land before home is set. The mover got in touch with our sales rep and informed him that I had to choose a (smaller) different home because he didn't want to move the one we LOVED due to it being 72 feet long. The mover told our sales rep that we could only do a 28×56.

    The sales rep got in touch with me and informed me of what was said. I asked the sales rep for a reason why we had to choose a smaller home because once grading is done it will be more than enough. The sales rep then asked the mover about it. The mover said the 72 foot wouldn't make it up my driveway. Which I find hilarious because my parents home right next to mine is over 80feet long and so is my neighbors. Which the mover would had to have seen while he was here.. The sales rep/mover would not work with us at all, only option they gave was 28×60 MAX. I didn't want to settle with that, I LOVE this home. So the same day I called Oakwood homes in Asheville and they said they would make sure I got that same home! The process has been great and so fast! We've only been working with them for 1.5 months maybe?

    We have already ordered the home, and we are closing soon! They have been top notch on top of everything. Very willing to help you in anyway possible. I would recommend them to anyone. When I messaged Ian the sales rep and informed him I was proceeding elsewhere and he didn't care at all. He was "sorry to hear that" didn't even try to work with us. I'm glad we went to Oakwood and didn't settle with Ian and the mover for the smaller home.

    Clayton Homes had what I wanted and the process was alright in the beginning but it turned out to be a bad experience. They hooked me up with a contractor and whoever they used for their contractor was very late. They told me they could put the house in in wintertime where I live. There’s no way that they could do that because of the snow but I asked the rep about it several times and they said that there would be no problem doing it. It turned out it was a couple months late because they had to wait for the ground to dry. They also didn't include any of the permits so when they delivered the house, none of the permits were attained. I had to go get all the permits myself.

    The quality of the home is fine but there was a disappointment that there wasn't more communication about what they had got and what they hadn't got. It cost me a lot of extra money. We were supposed to write them a check for it all and it'd be done. But it didn't work out that way. It was $20,000 on top, that I had to come up with.

    The process with Clayton was quick, efficient and relatively easy. I was able to customize almost everything in my home. However, I've got some concerns with the quality of the home especially now that it's been settled. There was a problem with the tile in the shower. It's been ongoing since the house was installed and it still has not been resolved. The follow through from Clayton is not the greatest.

    Clayton walked me through the whole purchasing process and did a very good job. I was really comfortable with Shane. He wasn't pushy and he was very personable. And we really like our home. I like the layout of it. The kitchen and the living room don't have any walls so it's a great big area that we like. Also, it feels very roomy and glad for the three-bedroom home. We set up an office in one of them and have visitors, when they come, in the other one. I'm very happy with it. The only thing is we would have liked to have a set of stairs when they first had this home set up. We borrowed some from our friends in another city and we got that done but if that were provided, it would've been a nice gift.

    My wife had a Clayton home when we lived in Colorado and they had the trailer at the right price and what we were looking for so we decided to work with them. The buying process was very long. It was a bad time to be buying anything at the time because of the COVID stuff. But the process wasn't all that bad. The rep we worked with, James, tried to help us get everything fixed. I had bricks that fall off the wall, cracks in the ceiling, and water damage problems going on. We've had contractors out here, good ones and bad ones, and they've been constantly working. I've had some that I told Clayton I didn't want ever coming back. But I still need them to come out and I haven't heard from the company for a couple of weeks or so. They should be out here fixing the back room that's messed up and they're taking forever.
