Nice Doormat
January 20, 2023

Purchasing with Garrett Wade was a breeze and I found these doormats at a very reasonable price. The mats themselves are extremely effective at scrubbing off any debris on your shoes and seem very durable. One caveat is that they are fairly light and slide around a bit. I suggest placing them in a boot tray or other means of keeping them in place.

Older gardener

Site is simple and clear. Products are obviously evaluated by the company--nothin cheesy, cheap, or trendy. The business end is as thoughtful as the products. Discounts are available allowing the months and years of my orders to provide free shipping plus an additional award (without having to meet a price target each time I fall for another item.)

High Quality Products
December 16, 2022

My Husband and I both, have purchased many products from Garrett Wade over the years. We have never had to return a single item. Most of our purchases we view as being "generational". We will be able to pass them on to future family members because, the quality is so good (so refreshing). Everyone at GW, who we have had contact with, have been very friendly, helpful and have gone above and beyond to ensure we are delighted with their products,service and Company...WE ARE!

Great Service - Great Products
August 11, 2020

As a "GW" customer over several years, their products are unique, highest quality and targeted to the specific needs of their customers. When combined with their service, you won't find a better experience!

Be careful when you buy from Garrett Wade. Wood colors are not as pictured and then they blame you for not understanding wood tones. Very weird dealing with a company that thinks customer service is done by letting you buy from them. Also the customer reviews are not all posted. They weed out negative comments about their product. They do have some 1-2 stars posted but they are minor issues. Great products but you can buy the same stuff from other vendors with comparable prices and non insulting customer service.

Great quality
May 14, 2021

I got your text about 25% off if you spent $50 on certain tools. I found it to be a little difficult to tell which tools were included. However, I placed an order which I am certain will be satisfying. So, I would just make it very clear which items are suggested in any sale. Thank you for your excellent products.

Multifunction Hose Nozzle
May 26, 2021

Placed an order for the new multifunction garden hose nozzle to replace a nozzle that I had worn out. Got a notice that my order had been refunded, but no reason given. I know with new products and Covid delivery problems, availability can be impacted, but would have liked better information than we credited your card back for your purchase. Nothing about why it was cancelled or if it would be available in the future. Now I have to start hunting for a replacement from another source. Disappointing!

Communication
October 2, 2023

While the Garrett Wade products are (mostly) phenomenal, they don't communicate much. No e-mail is sent when the order is received it would be nice to have an order number to refer to; nor is shipping information ever provided so packages can be tracked.

On 11/22/2019 I bought a stainless precision caliber. Cost $36.92 with shipping. It did not measure, it fell apart and had terrible tool marks and subpar workmanship. I returned it. No refund to date. They claim they had problems processing the refund "on their end". Nothing but excuses, poor communication and inexcusably poor customer service. Never buy their crappy poorly made junk.

I would give no stars if I could. Don't waist your time with this company. Good luck getting a refund if you return items. They sent me an email stating that they refunded my money. They did not refund my money as verified by Paypal! The return label Garrett Wade provided took two weeks to get from NJ to OH! Over two weeks later I still don't have my refund despite Garrett Wade claiming that they refunded my money almost two weeks ago. Customer Service is useless and non-existent. Looking at various review sites online, getting refunds seems to be a big problem with this company.

Smart purchase!
July 13, 2023

Everything was as pictured. I am not an experienced handy woman, so I love the individual drill bit containers labeled for the type of material they work on. They are compact and don't take up a lot of room. Love them!

Beautiful product and excellent service!
May 7, 2020

I just love my beautiful and functional Hurricane Lamp! It imparts a warm glow to our veranda, and we look forward to warm summer nights spent around it having drinks and good conversation! Another great experience ordering from Garrett Wade. We are longtime customers, and their fine products and excellent customer service have us returning time and time again. Thank you, Garrett Wade!

Just great service.
November 18, 2018

I'm in the UK and I don't always get good results when ordering from USA. But I have to say Garrett Wades customer service was excellent. The communications were excellent and they replied very quickly. Product arrived after only 10 days and without any import tax that I often get stung for. Just excellent and the product and free gift are great. Have been and will continue to recommend them to folks here in UK.
Thank you.

Lantern and small kerosene stove
November 3, 2021

Both items were as expected. Used them on test projects and both operated better than I had hoped. The Stove heated cooking oil to 350, and the hush puppies Fried up beautifully. The lantern with a bees wax candle gave off a little more light than I expected and stayed lit through a pretty steady breeze.

Good products, good service
April 16, 2023

I've purchased several tools from Garret Wade and been very happy with the quality. After a recent issue where I was unable to obtain a discount on an on-line order, their customer service rep contacted me and issued both the discount and refund on a second item. Her personal emails were immediate and much appreciated. I will continue to order from Garret Wade and won't be shy about contacting Customer Service if I have a problem.

Dear Mary, We're very sorry that you needed to add something extra in order to receive the discount. We have issued a refund in the amount of $15.08 (10% off the item you ordered, and a full refund on the extra item you needed to order). Please accept our sincerest apologies. We truly appreciate you as a customer! Thank you so much for your order and your patience.

High Quality
October 16, 2021

Everything I have purchased has been of the highest quality. My last order did not contain one of the items I ordered and getting the the matter straightened out was efficient and the item was sent after a phone call to report the problem. Good customer service is important and it exists at G. W.

Great tool to have in your shop.
August 18, 2021

This Yankee drill is something I've been wanting for a long time. I have already used it and it worked perfectly. The price was reasonable, the shipping was fast, and it even came with a free set of extra bits! If my experience with this company was typical of how they conduct business then I think they will be my go-to company for many other tools in the future.
