I've been dealing with McCloskey Appliance since 2021, and have only great things to say about…read morethem, their service, their staff, their products, their prices and their professionalism. These folks are completely knowledgeable, reliable, skillful and honest. I've bought a refrigerator and had another fridge repaired by them. I've also purchased a washer and a dryer from them and even their delivery guys really know their stuff. They're consistently courteous, respectful and they are pros in every way. As to pricing (and I know, because I compared such before choosing), and the quality of the products they offer, they've got all that down, as well. I initially went with McCloskey because my 88-year-old, widowed mother - who lives, alone, in Mason City - has used them, and ONLY them, for many years; she highly recommended them, and she's as pleased as ever with their service, prices, products and employees. I am, as well. IMO, one cannot go wrong by choosing McCloskey Appliance.

We have nothing but great things to say about McCloskey Appliance and the service we received…read more Choosing a washer and dryer was very easy. Rich explained in detail the features, etc. He was excellent to do business with, even upgraded our dryer when the original choice was damaged. Didn't charge for delivery or to pick up old appliances. Delivery men, Dalton and Zach did a very professional job as well!! Service is not a thing of the past. They worked with us all the way.

I'm pleased with the overall sales and service, but giving a one-star rating for the following…read morereason: The store displayed signs and the salesman sold me on the idea of opening a Sears MasterCard charge account, with the incentive of a $75 statement credit if I made a purchase of at least $500. The large gas BBQ I was buying came to just under $500, so I bought additional items to bring my purchase above $500. When I received my first the account statement, there was no such discount reflect. I called Sears customer assistance and it was a total waste of time -- I got a rude person in a foreign country who insisted there is no such offer in effect, only a $20 credit, which she granted me. Since I didn't think to photograph the signs at the store I have no evidence. And I purchased weighs over 100 pounds and it will take two hours to disassemble and an eight hour drive (I live in Chicago) to get it back to the store. Basically I feel scammed, and it's Sears inability to live up to their promises and their poor customer relations that's making them obsolete in a world soon to be dominated by Amazon and a few others who live up to their promises to customers.

Do Not Use This Company!! They install incorrect equipment…read morevia SEMCAC pgm!! THEY DONT INSTALL COMPLETE SYSTEM - nor did they install a furnace for for Zone MN is in! The furnace they picked & installed is for a coastal zone NOT MN! Then they did not install new chimney with new furnace!! By not finishing properly warranty is negated & furnace won't work. Then they spent 6 wks trying to find problem & expect me to pay $500 when Steve finally called on 1)6/23 to tell me they didn't install the chimney & that was problem! Can't switch out a chimney in January AND they Stole the New Chimney so before I could install a new chimney I HAD TO BUY A NEW CHIMNEY!! I had to hire a diff company to finish the job as Arens just left me with zilch!! Refused to return phone calls!! After All Was Done: I had to pay over $3000 to fix the problem created by Arens Heating & Use of the SEMCAC Pgm!! Neither the City of Austin Nor the SEMCAC pgm inspected this installation as both are supposed to do according to SEMCAC pgm!! SEMCAC is Worthless without oversight!! Now it's 1/3/25 & this inappropriate zone furnace is Not Working AGAIN!! I'd known Arens for 40 yrs - THEY WERE FRIENDS - NOT ANY MORE!!! This was a job done for my 90 yo Mom who was participating in SEMCAC pgm when Arens did install incorrectly. She could have died due to their incompetence as not switching out the chimney on new furnace can cause a fire &/or carbon monoxide poisoning according to mfg's I contacted!! Steer far away from this vendor! Use of their lack of service could prove deadly!!

I was absolutely blown away at the service I was given. John went above, and beyond my…read moreexpectations. I had never received such wonderful service before. He explained everything thoroughly, and helped me learn more than just a thing, or two about my AC unit. This is the kind of service you always hope for, but never actually expect to get. He was so kind, and polite. I know for a fact that the next time I run into an issue, Arens is the only place I'll need to call. Not only are you greeted on the phone with a friendly voice, but you're also given service that hits right out of the ballpark.

Bought 2 brand new Treks from here very recently which was the first time buying a new bike in many…read moreyears. Barely ridden the derailed bound and broke. Bike showed a scar that it was on the ground but this had nothing to do with it since it was at a different time. Most probable cause with less than 4 miles on the bike was the limit screw was not set correctly when I bought it and the result was as expected from that. derailleur sucked up into my spokes causing paint damage and the derailleur to snap off. Dropped the bike off and was happy I had bought it from a bike shop and not Walmart for service. Service was great, they took the bike and had it fixed the next day. Bad part is they took no responsibility for what happened and charged me 60 bucks to replace a 25 dollar part. I unfortunately regret buying my bikes there and they lost me as a customer for life. I need two more bikes for my kids but they will be purchased out of town somewhere else whom hopefully will stand by their product and more importantly their work.
