Would give 0 if possible
July 6, 2023

Do not order from this company! I ordered a salt cell from them April of last year for $450. It no longer works just over a year later and the company (Pool Supply World/Leslie's) did absolutely nothing for me to make things right. Said they could offer a 10% discount on a new cell…No thanks. I'll be taking my money to a company who values their customers. If you're thinking of using them please think again. Awful.

Horrible Customer Service!

I ordered 4 replacement filter cartridges for a Quad DE 100 on their website. After one week, the items were in stock, but stuck in the final stages of shipping (according to their order review and customer service rep). I spoke with the customer service rep who told me it takes over a week to ship an item and 7-10 business days in transit. When I pushed back on a standard 3 week delivery timeframe, the customer service rep told me they were sorry the order couldn't be "received by your standard time frame". Three weeks isn't my standard time frame, that is well above industry standards. If I had purchased through Amazon, I could get the item in 1-5 days... not three weeks. I was expecting 1-1.5 weeks. LAST PURCHASE EVER from PoolSupplyWorld.com! I will NEVER buy from them again!"

I placed an order for 3 in Chlorine tabs on May 5th 2021 and order was accepted and charge was placed against my credit card. 14 May I receive an email stating order was cancelled. No explanation, no offer of substitution, no anything!. If I could give less than 1 star I would! Pool Supply World will see no more business traffic from me! Do yourself a favor and find another supplier for your pool needs.

Ordered s pool pump, got the order confirmation and they charged my card same day. Took 4 days to get through to Customer Service, and still they would not say where the product is being shipped from and if the product was shipped, back ordered, coming from China. No status - only we'll ley you know in 48-72 hours.
Worst service ever!

Poor Customer Service
October 29, 2020

They had the best price but I wish I had read the negative reviews before ordering. My product arrived in a non-manufacturers box and there were missing parts. The customer service was very shady and not timely. It reminded me of purchasing a used car with a so-called warranty from a scammer! I never got a direct answer regarding the problem.

Unfriendly and rude
January 10, 2023

They used to be good five years ago, but by now they are completely unfriendly, rude and tread customers of long years very badly.
After spending thousands of $ over the years there, I have stopped shopping there.

Great price
November 22, 2020

We were pleasantly surprised at the price we were able to get. Originally the filter was $1200 at Leslie's. There it was on sale for $799. Pool Supply World had it for $450. It arrived in 24 hours from the time of our order.

Polaris 280
October 28, 2021

Happy with my order. I knew what I needed, ordered it and they delivered it. Saved $200 from local retailers. My order arrived in three days. Its important for the buyer to know what they need in order to avoid returns. I would do business with them again. I recommend them. Just make sure you know what you need.

DO NOT ORDER HERE. You will NEVER get your item.
August 27, 2021

A credit card hold will be placed and then you will wait, and wait and wait. You'll check in on status and get 3 different answers from 3 different people. One will tell you item is in stock, next person will tell you it's about to be shipped and then when you finally think it may actually be fulfilled, they will tell you it is back on a backorder status.

Trying returning something. Product came damaged and reboxed. Three weeks later no return. They are the worste company ever. Div of Leslies pools and in the swim. I will never ever ever spend a dime with these companies again. They make it so hard to get a hold of that you give up on the returns. DO NOT BE SCAMMED.

Have in the last three weeks tried with two different sales personnel to get a return label for pool pad not needed. Sent in total of seven photos showing unopened box. No reply from them. I'm sure I'm out of the money paid for this item, took it to fedex and sent it off to manufacture. Never work with these folks again, not customer friendly.

Two stars as PART of the order was received. Here's what happened - I ordered chlorine tabs and a pool cover. Tabs came, cover did not. Waited a few days. Nothing. Called and waited on hold for over an hour. Finally got a clueless lady on the phone. She did follow up with an email asking for 72 hours to solve problem. They didn't respond in 72 hours. I sent an email after the fourth business day to follow up and they still haven't replied. Tried calling again and waited for 30 minutes before deciding that I won't wait another hour + to speak to these fools. Attempted one more email and "chat" contact. They never replied. I Disputed charge with CC company. Will never do business with them again. You should think twice about it as well.

Scam
July 2, 2020

I ordered filters for my pool that is green now because I've been waiting so long for these to come in. They never responded to any of my emails and I've been on hold with them now for 45 mins and the same recording keeps saying there are 9 calls ahead of you.

Internet Ripoff - Beware
October 22, 2017

Item shipped had previously been opened and was missing parts. Very difficult to get a human voice on the line. Must fill online form to communicate and responses are evasive. Customer service is negligible. 15% restocking fee, $10 shipping fee, even when they didn't complete the order. This is why Amazon.com remains king. Buyer beware! Do not use this company.

As with so many others, they took my money and no further action. I believe they've shut down their customer service entirely as emails and phone calls go unanswered. I've called the customer service line exactly 5 minutes after it opens for the day and was immediately warned of 60 minute wait times and "more than 9 people in front of you".
Small claims court may not be the appropriate venue. From what I see, a class action suit would be more apt.

What a great resource
November 16, 2018

Ordered new equipment to replace our old pump and filter. Resources here on the Pool Supply World site allowed me to research a great solution, prices were excellent, shipment was quick, and with free shipping and no sales tax how could I go elsewhere?! Already placed another order for valves we'll need to complete the job.
