FAMOUS TATE APPLIANCE & BEDDING

In talking to the kitchen designers we received bids from, all recommended Famous Tate. We had looked at Viking, Decor and Wolf and were leaning towards Monogram. Our salesman, Bob, spent the time with us to explain the nuances of each product line, he was very knowledgeable and patient. Bob also was able to get us a great deal on a range hood that had been returned, providing us a significant savings. Since the range hood was a returned item, there were some pieces missing which were ordered and delivered promptly. Famous Tate defies the stereotype of a big box appliance store, they are wonderful.

When I bought the stove, Gary Brown, the salesperson, was in Tampa but now he has moved to their Oldsmar store. He made me a fantastic deal on the stove - he helped me pick up stuff that was worth it. He did a very good job. They blew everyone else in terms of pricing. They were at the house when they said they would be, hooked everything up and called back to make sure that everything was fine. My experience with them was definitely good, and I couldn’t have been happier. I still keep in touch with Gary. If I needed something from him today, I would call him right now.

Comparison shopping visit to Oldsmar store. Salesman greeted us. Listened to our needs. Showed us several options. Did not try and sell us more than we needed but made sure we did not 'downgrade'. Knowledgeable of the products (and there are a lot of them). Very non-pressure approach. Pointed out the pros and cons of various products. Closed the deal and arranged the setup and delivery right there. Every thing came off exactly as described. We departed and the appliances were delivered as promised.

Rudy was fantastic. Very informative and helpful, He was never high pressure, which is usually a turnoff for us. Although we had picked out a range somewhere else,he was able to find a similar one at a better price for us. We really felt we got our monies worth, he did not nickel & dime us. I have since passed on his name to another friend who is in the market for a fridge.

They are not high pressure in their sales. They were polite, courteous and exact in their product features for their warranties. They also called to make sure that the date of the delivery was okay too. Their prices were very reasonable in comparison to others. About eight months after I purchased the product I heard a buzzing noise and I contacted them about the problem. They came out and found an item stuck in the drain and didn't charge a thing since it was still under warranty.

The salesman seemed honest and reliable. The delivery service was very good and they also helped me with other work such as balancing my refrigerator door. The prices were competitive and fair.
