LOCAL BUSINESS REVIEW: My wife Rose and I always like to deal, first, with local businessmen and women. But we have crossed off Fireplaces & More in Green from our list. We paid $1,700 for an electronic gas log fireplace unit three years ago, with a personal check that cleared immediately so the owner wouldn't lose any money if we paid by a credit card. The unit has never worked as easily or efficiently as he said it would when he sold it to us. After Sunday's widespread power outage in Summit County, the pilot light starter went out. I still have the instruction booklet and followed the lighting instructions to a tee, several times, but nothing happened. So I called the owner, Dana, and asked if he would come over to re-light the pilot light for us. Reasonable enough, right? Well, Dana said he would come out for a $165 service call, which I felt was totally outrageous. He said that I would not find anyone around here who would come out for less than that. Two calls and about 10 minutes later, I found a local company that would do it for a $119 service call. Dana, the Fireplaces and More owner, has been out to our place at least four of five times in the last three years to fix/replace the electronic starting unit, which was always a problem from the beginning. I could understand if this unit was some cheap thing from a big-box store, but it's just the opposite, from a local business that's supposed to stand by its high-end products, or so I thought. After I texted him several times to inform him that I had quickly found another local business to come out to our place for far less, he didn't even have the courtesy to call me back after he gave me the outrageous $165 quote for what would most likely be a short, 10-minute SERVICE CALL! So beware of Fireplaces or More if you expect good, reliable and prompt service. If anyone has a suggestion for someone else to help us, please message me, thank you. read more
