I've used rental companies before, and by far this one if the worst. When a rental company provides…read morea proofing box to warm up food, they typically supply the sheet pans for inside the machine to put the trays of food on. Well this company rents them separately, but at no point made us aware of this. They have an after hours "Emergency Line" that we called over 30 times and the owners answer to me was " we answer the emergency phone the other 51 weeks of the year, this week we didn't", We that didn't help when I had to have people running up and down the street using neighbors ovens to try and serve warm food. The Smug owner then said, well I wont charge you for the proofing box. When asked how he was going to compensate me for having to hire neighborhood kids to run food all over the pace to warm it up, he said I'm not charging you for the proofing box (that i couldn't even use) and that's it. Do yourself a favor, and use a better company then this. This guy is a joke, and doing business that way, it shows

We've used A Party Pleasing Rental for our kids' graduation parties over the last few years. For…read more2023 we rented a 20x30 tent, tables/chairs; in the past we rented 20x20, chairs, and even a grill! I'll review this in four areas: the equipment, the backoffice service, setup, and breakdown. Rented equipment: The actual rented stuff was excellent: great condition, solid pieces. Exactly as expected and suited our needs perfectly, working within our budget. Backoffice: In deciding what we needed, they have always been great, and their advice "spot-on." Their internal team is great at communicating with calls to confirm when set up and break down would be, and flexible to our needs. Plus the three people I talked to over the period of time were really nice. Set-up: So easy. Explained what they were doing, put the tent exactly where I marked (and had to really fight against rocks to do so!), and were really nice but didn't stick around talking forever Break-down: Also REALLY easy, and very fast. Again, guys were really nice but not chatty in a way that got me stuck talking. From soup to nuts these guys rocked it. Having a backyard party for 100 people is stressful, but knowing that A Party Pleasing Rental took care of us was a big stress reliever! We'll keep using them and will highly recommend them!

We had a very bad experience with Abbott and Sons Rental. I was hosting a party for my daughter…read morewhich began at noon. Delivery of the furniture and linens were scheduled for 9 - 10 am (which would have left at least 2 hours for set up). However, when they did not show up by 10:00, we began to call Abbott and nobody was answering our calls. The rental truck and delivery guys showed up after 11:30 am! It was a disaster trying to get the 7 tables and 33 chairs unpacked and set up - while guests started to arrive! Guests helped unpack and set up chairs, set tablecloths and decor, get the food displayed on buffet tables, etc. It was embarassing to say the least. The delivery staff wanted to dump and leave the furniture and we insisted that they at least help us unpack the folded chairs! Furthermore, we scheduled for pickup later that day. When they showed up to pick up the furniture they were RUDE to the security doorman, refused to show identification, and moved past our security to go pick up the rentals from the party room! Our doorman called us in the apartment right away and was very upset. Upon raising all of these issues to Colleen at Abbott the day after the party, she confirmed that the delivery time of 9 - 10 basically became unrealistic to them, although they NEVER tried to contact us to let us know they'd be VERY LATE, let alone respond to our calls that morning! She then denied the whole other incident of pickup and not following our building's security and entry policy. She said she believed her delivery staff's side of the story rather than ours. Clearly Abbott and Sons has no concern or respect for the customer. They've offered no money back (which now comes as NO surprise from this company.) Well, at a cost of $400 for the rentals I guess they figured a TERRIBLE review of their company was worth it to them. DON'T USE THEM!!!! YOU WILL REGRET IT!

We had the most AWFUL experience with Abbott and Sons. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY! THEY WILL…read moreCAUSE YOU WAY MORE STRESS THAN YOU DESERVE!!!! We scheduled our rental furniture to be delivered between 9-10am the day of my baby shower, which started at 12pm. At 10:15am I gave them a call to see where they were because no one had shown up or contacted me yet, but they didn't pick up the phone or return my message. I had to call a second time and the officer manager, Coleen, wasn't aware of the late delivery. She said she would find out and give me a call back, but she never did. The delivery staff didn't arrive until 11:30am!!!!! and the furniture wasn't in the room until 11:45am--15 mins before the party started. By that time we already had guests arriving, and had to put them to work to set the tables and prep the room for our party. To say they totally ruined the morning and caused everyone a TON OF STRESS on what should've been a joyful and stress-free day for the party hosts AND guests would be an understatement. SUCH A DISASTER. Then, when they came to pick up the furniture at the end of the day, they didn't contact me to coordinate or be escorted (again) and were EXTREMELY RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL to my building's receptionist/security guard. When he asked them for identification they refused to provide it, gave him terrible attitude, and pushed past him. Not only is this completely inappropriate and unprofessional, but it is a security concern. I tried to give Abbott and Sons the benefit of the doubt by calling Coleen the following day to ask for an explanation and apology. Not only did it take multiple phone calls and messages over the next few days for her to pick up the phone, she was defensive and denied that her staff would treat anyone that way. She also told me there was a scheduling conflict and they had multiple deliveries scheduled for the same time that morning, which is why the delivery was late. Why didn't she tell me that when I booked it and we confirmed the delivery time??? Save yourself and your guests the hassle and stress and DO NOT BOOK ABBOTT AND SONS. I have never had such a poor experience with a vendor before in my life.
