I was very open minded and gave Sandy a lot of runway to create whatever she thought was best based on my vision and budget, and she did an amazing job. On top of being super talented and professional, Sandy is just the sweetest person and cared deeply about making my wedding day extra special. She hand delivered all of our flowers and took extra care to make sure I was happy with them. If you have a chance to work with her, you absolutely should!

We drop by Moscarillo's several times each year, sometimes finding what we want at the right price,…read moresometimes not so much. This year not so much. A couple of things about this garden shop. First, it's much larger than you might think from the road. There are lots and lots of flowers, veggies and other garden items; no quarreling over the choices to be found here. And for the most part the staff has proven helpful. Mostly. Our main issue is over the prices -- this is not a shop for anyone operating on a budget. And in the spring of 2024, it's pretty expensive here to buy potting plants, perennials, hanging baskets, fertilizer, potting soil, vegetables and the like. You may legitimately argue over whether the likes of Home Depot and Lowes can match the quality here, but they certainly do better when it comes to pricing. Check it out -- you may disagree. But at least you have been cautioned.

This place is a lot bigger than it looks. We found the very hard to find Donkey Tail or Burrito succulents! We bought 2 of those, a String of Teardrop, and a tiny String of Pearls. I also found the most beautiful rain gauge there. They had a really nice selection of all landscaping plants and flowers, even a nice sized selection of houseplants. Everything in this store is well taken care of and healthy. Lastly, the prices were very reasonable. I can highly recommend this place.

This was my second visit, and both times the staff took good care of me. During their soft opening, they tuned up our bicycles and did quality work at a fair price. This week, I needed a few pedal bolts loosened to make bike transport easier. They had me stop in, fixed it quickly, and sent me on my way. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. They showed me some impressive new bikes, including cool electric models and one with eye-catching balloon tires. This time of year, the focus is clearly skis. They had plenty of ski gear and cold-weather clothing on display, ready for winter. I missed the grand opening, but the service won me over anyway.

They took the time to answer all of my questions, made sure my bindings were set up correctly, and really went the extra mile when they found out I had an upcoming ski trip.

Communication was excellent, and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. Awesome shop, awesome people, and I wouldn't hesitate to buy from them again. Highly recommend!

zero stars, bad business, horrible customer service, sorry dalene, just calling you out, fitting…read moresince you never returned my calls either! so, cheap, yesssss, it was a warehouse. shitty product, double yesssssss! should you stay away????? yesssssssssssssss serves us right for thinking a company stood behind their product, dalene obviously doesnt, so maybe you shouldnt STAND on theirs! (OMG, im so good with yelpuns!) history. wife went looking for a new floor several months ago. she did her due diligence going to ANY flooring store in connecticut and landed on a few options, this seemed to be the most appropriate. seeing that we were on a budget, went to try their warehouse in hartford. getting in isnt easy, you need to make an appointment, but so it is sometimes. mike met us out there a couple days later and answered our questions, pretty hands off, but available should we ask anything (should have asked do you stand by your shitty product!) found something we liked, biggest concern was keeping it under 3 a sqft and loaded up the minivan (they did help us bring it out to the loading dock) and we loaded up out 700$ of new flooring and brought it back to the house. we unloaded, let it acclimate and then off to install, and curse, and lots of cursing!! the product kept breaking with little effort, after 8 (EIGHT!) boxes worth of attempts, we figured out this wasnt going to work. either the product snapped with install, or it popped apart if we could get a line done. finally after DAYS of effort down the crapper we knew this wasnt going to work and we needed an alternative. let me also put this in writing, this is a warehouse, its final sale. silly us as we assumed it wasnt going to be broken from the go, so in this case, i would have expected some sort of consideration, maybe just take back the unopened product, sure we were going to eat the 8 boxes of broken attempts, but at least its something back for money basically left to burn on the front lawn. ultimately we went with costco, yep, they sell flooring. Life Pro Tip, if you pick it up, its way cheaper then shipping (about $2.50 a sqft). after getting their product, the LVT snapped as it should, and off we went, took about 4 days non stop to get it installed, but 3 months later, still looks fantastic and better yet, we realized it wasnt our ability, it was Dalenes inferior product. well, as you would expect, we tried for MONTHS to get ahold of the GM, no returned calls or emails. i gotta tell ya, shocking considering how 'great' they were with follow up before they got our money. I even went into the manchester store and spoke with brian, he assured me someone was going to give me a call, only fair and respectful (his words) well, 3 weeks later, im still waiting and since they dont care, i figured i would share with the fine viewers of the internet. still looking for a flooring company? try costco! I stand by my flooring review (ok, i did use it twice, but its clever!)

Dalene Flooring Outlet Center has a great selection of tile, wood and carpet choices from basic to unique. Michael Leite was knowledgeable with a no fuss easy attitude. He was helpful without crowding me or trying to push a more expensive product over another.
