I purchased the Dimplex DS5629GB electric heater/stove from Menards online for a great price (well at least initially). At the time the closest Menards did NOT carry the stove. The stove works great but had some structure and cosmetic issues; there was light showing on the wall behind the unit near the bottom which seemed to be due to the heater assembly cover not being flush with the underside of the stove which is not suppose to be like that. Also, the glossy black finish was compromised with scuff marks on the top! I called Dimplex who informed me to return it to the store. I contacted Menards online and i was informed to contact the store for and exchange or return. I did so. I exchanged the 2 and returned home with the replacement. I unpacked it and noticed the serious damage to one corner! What is Menards selling people! Damaged products? YES THEY ARE! I went back and took the first back! The personnel were nice enough. ( i did call the store once to see if there was 1 of these stoves but that didn't go over well either.The employee said, " i am downstairs and i would have to go all the way upstairs to see..." Would not that be her job to go; i don't need her to tell me that it would be a burden for her!)
Anyway, in the long run i drove 3 - 70 mile round trips which probably increased the total price! Not a good deal after all.
Several years ago i did buy some material at Menards when they offered 11% thinking i would save money but the 11% is only a coupon or check only good at Menards. That should have stopped me from going back but... NEVER again!
I gave 2 stars because the heater works nicely.
