My experience with Earl's shop, acting as an authorized representative for Duromax, was extremely…read moredisappointing from start to finish. Despite numerous attempts to get updates and resolution--calls, follow-ups, and even sending a friend in person--communication was poor and professionalism was lacking. The repeated delays and excuses went beyond repair issues and felt like outright negligence. What made the situation worse was the dismissive attitude and the sense that concerns were being ignored, which added a layer of disrespect to an already frustrating process. The one positive outcome was that Duromax eventually replaced the generator, which shows they acknowledged the problem with Earl's handling of the situation. However, the fact that Earl's still has the original generator is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about their business practices. Overall, I cannot recommend dealing with Earl's shop based on this experience.

Jim (Earl's Place) got my JD lawn tractor running again after it blew 3 out of 4 push rods and…read morevalves. He showed up at my house, diagnosed the problem, and returned later to fix it. The fee was acceptable and paying was easy with Venmo, Cash App and PayPal. We talked liked neighbors for about 30 minutes when he was done fixing it, as he regaled me with colorful mower stories which convinced me he knows his business. Mower runs great so far. So I was happy with the end result. Jim has a unique business edge. He makes house calls. This is a big deal when your mower won't run and you have no way to get your rig to his shop. If I was running his business, I would push this advantage. At first, I had called a backyard mechanic but had to find a way to get my tractor to his house. That was a deal breaker. Then I called Earl's Place and put that worry to rest. The key, however, is patience and acceptance of some odd business practices (in my opinion). I called his number and got his voice mail which said to call the office number. I called and the woman at the other end said to text him as that's how he prefers to communicate. I texted and he texted back quick enough. But business by text?! Next, he showed up when he said he would to diagnose, then said he had to order parts and said he will see me the following week. Three weeks went by and I finally called him. He said I was on the schedule for that day or next. He showed up ahead of schedule and fixed the problem with a quickness. But I would have been more at ease if he had called or texted with an update in those 3 weeks I waited to hear from him. I would def recommend Jim and will call him again if I have a problem. Have faith in your fellow man, have some patience, and see what Jim can do for you. I trust him.

It was my first time at Peppers (Monday, May 4th), and I was excited about it. Arrived about 9am,…read moreand was quickly overwhelmed (in a good way) at the variety and trying to navigate the connected greenhouse rooms and out door areas. It's a little like a maze, only organized into right angles. Seemed there was only one way in and one way out, which is also okay. Things went downhill after the first hour as it was getting crowded, and customers were waiting in the parking lot hoping to snag a cart from someone leaving. by 10:30 it was so crowded, with cutomers as well as employees trying to move racks of plants around, that it was often necessary to wait for someone to pass, before I could walk down a main aisle heading in the opposite direction. I had to check out twice, and both times the owner (Mr. Pepper) and his wife were at the counter. Both tended to speak only to the girl working the register, but when necessary to ask me for clarification (like "Is this your's too?" kind of thing), the tone was curt and to the point, delivered without a smile. It was busy, I get that there's little time for chit-chat, but it felt a little like being in line at the Soup Nazi (Seinfeld, Season 7, Episode 6). But, I wouldn't be writing this review if it weren't for what I realized this morning: Every single basil plant I bought is actually a dozen or so plants growing together in a small pot. I bought seven, and when picking them out I was curious as to why they were so small. Now I know. This seems to be a trend I've noticed, at both Lowe's and Home Depot, where several plants are crammed into one pot to create the illusion of a larger plant with an established root system. Crowded roots become suppressed roots, thus a stunted plant that does not thrive. This **can** be seen by some as a plus, but I find it misleading, and it is not a proper potting method for growing healthy plants. The basils ranged from $2.95 to $3.95. And last, I never did see where the restrooms were, but one of the friends I was with, who has been here many times, shook her head when I asked where it was, saying, "You don't want to go in there." Maybe it was an outhouse? I took her advice and visited Royal Farms on the way home. In summary, it is worth going to, but be ready for a less than enjoyable experience, unless you arrive and leave early. Get there early to get a cart, don't expect "friendly" service if it's busy, and check the stems of whatever you consider buying to see if multiple plants are potted.
