Web site was easy to use
November 14, 2019

Web site was easy to use. Loved the 3D builder. The delivery time was over 60 days but once they arrived they had the building up in a day! We love the look of the building and the quality!

Everything was pretty good except for the installers using my neighbors pavers to level it. I would prefer to know the people installing it in the future.

Best prices I've seen and he absolute worst customer service I've ever seen. My brother and cousin are looking to purchase a metal carport and I've informed them to look elsewhere

So far very easy to order, the website is well laid out and easy to understand and navigate.
Poor communication, scheduling problems and sloppy followup.

I was extremely happy with time for delivery, except they were just a little later than expected, but they were quick and efficient. The quality was as expected and I am happy with the product.

Everything went very smoothly
October 10, 2017

Everything went very smoothly. The installers were punctual and wasted no time at getting the RV Port erected. The quality of the materials was very good and the RV Port should last many, many years.

I had a great experience
September 7, 2017

I had a great experience. The product was as expected, and once the carport was installed everything was great. My only issue was the time it took to get it here, and then get it installed

The girl that I spoke with about delivery was very rude and unprofessional. Otherwise I am pleased with the product and the quality and price of the structure.

I really liked the way Alan's Factory Outlet website let me design my purchases. It made it easy to play with my design until I could specify exactly what I wanted to purchase.

I had good experiences with everyone i dealt with through the process at Alan's Factory Outlet. And i like the carport. It seems well built and the installation itself was quick and easy.
As my possible delivery date came closer, i called to see if they had any idea where i was on the schedule because i had a lot going on at the time and was trying to make sure i could plan around the delivery. Customer service at AFO directed me to call the manufacturer, North Carolina Carports. I called them once a week or so for like 3 weeks once we passed the 2 month expected waiting period, trying to check on if they had any idea when i would come up on the schedule. And through the 2-3 people i talked to each time getting directed around. Most of them immediately caught an attitude and were rude. One lady blatantly hung up on me. I was trying to be courteous the whole time but was really rubbed the wrong way with the customer service from the manufacturer. I like the carport, and i like AFO, but if i ever need another carport, i think I'll be shopping elsewhere.

I waited and waited
November 22, 2015

I waited and waited. If I were to guess, they forgot to schedule the instillation. The web sight said it would be installed in 4 to 6 weeks with a 10% chance it would be either a bit early or a bit late. In week 6 after I signed the contract I was told it would be installed with in two weeks and I would receive a call to schedule the instillation. No call and no instillation. I called back in week 9 asking what the problem was. Again, it would be installed within two weeks, and would get a call to schedule. No call. Late in week 10, I called back to ask why I didn't get a call. I got a very apologetic lady, who told me she was very sorry about the instillation and would call me back with the schedule. She told me it would be Monday of the next week, and I would receive a call from the instillation crew when they were on their way. On the Monday, by noon, I had not received a call, so I called to see if the instillation was still on, and was told it was and the crew would call. The crew showed up about 4:30 PM, but no call. They finished just as it got too dark to see. The actual vendor was Carolina Sheds and Alan's Factory Outlet sells on commission and Carolina Sheds subcontracts the instillation. If I get another shed, and I might, I will look for another vendor.
