Very good information and service - but...

Clear information about the machinery, on the telephone and when to expect delivery - which was actually a day earlier than the expected day. So Ron Smith seems a very good firm. However, Fed Ex was disappointing: we couldn't actually track the delivery in real time on line, delivery was made on a showery day, and the package left outside, not under cover, so it became wet. It seems that the FedEx driver didn't bother to come up the steps to ring the front door bell, so we didn't know that machine had arrived and couldn't put it under cover.

Thank you for your detailed feedback, Richard! We’re very glad to hear you were happy with the information and service provided by our team, and that your order arrived even earlier than expected. We’re sorry to hear about your experience with FedEx and the way the parcel was left — we’ll pass this on to them to help improve future deliveries. We really appreciate you bringing this to our attention and for your kind words about Ron Smith & Co.

Good responsive customer service

Buying and delivery were straightforward. When we discovered we had purchased spare wheels unnecessarily, they responded quickly and without fuss. Companies prove themselves when things go wrong and Ron Smith definitely stepped up to the mark.
