We purchased several high-end appliances (Sub zero refrigerator, Wolf stove, Bosch diswasher) from Builder Sales to have delivered to our new home when needed. We went through each product with the sales person and what our plans were for each appliance (free standing, etc). When our contractor called for the appliances, Builder Sales was only going to send 1 guy out for the delivery. They expected my contractor to supply the people to move in and hook up the appliances, which was not what we were told upon purchase. Delivery had to be postponed and when Builder Sales did deliver the appliances, they just unloaded them into the garage and left stating that they only deliver, not set-up. What service did I pay for? Additionally, the refrigerator didn't have side panels and we had to wait another 7-10 days to have a "whole" refrigerator. When our electrician came to hook up the stove, Builder Sales had forgotten to include the "pig tail" needed for hook up so they suggested we go to Lowe's and purchase our own. I expect these people to be professional and from what I have seen, I will not be purchasing from them again. I just hope that the long-term service, after installation, is not as unprofessional.
PROS: local, provides several lines of products, friendly
CONS: poor customer service, small service staff, no set-up of appliances

Hello Kathleen, We are sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with our services. We offer free delivery with all purchases. Installation is available at an additional charge. Also, many built-in refrigerators do not come with outer panels as they are designed to be built into cabinets. There may have been some misunderstanding as to which services are included with purchase. We explain to all of our customers up front that we will gladly deliver your new appliances free of charge, and offer custom installation services for a fee. You state in your review that you purchased these items "to have delivered to our new home when needed." We delivered the items when needed, however, installation services were not contracted. We would have gladly installed your appliances for a fee. We are a family owned and operated business, with customer service and satisfaction as our number one goal.
