We purchased a dishwasher that was NEVER delivered or installed. I don't know how my partner didn't do his thorough research but unfortunately he didn't and trusted this small business. They will NOT return our calls or refund our money and apparently have filed BANKRUPTCY! Read their reviews they are NOT A STAND UP BUSINESS!! DO NOT RECOMMEND!!

I have purchased majority of appliances from Harlow’s and have never had a problem. I have not had a problem. Yes, they can be pricey, but you get what you pay for. Laurie was my rep and she was wonderful during my purchase. I plan on my next appliance purchase, I will use Harlow’s.

I have not received my product yet but I would like to compliment both Mel out of Rancho store and Erik in the San Bernardino of excellent customer service. I was able to choose a dishwasher for our rental on line and over the phone. They were patient, answered questions and extremely kind and a good value on delivery and installation. I really appreciate them.

I bought a brand new refrigerator in July 2021. It looked like refurbished refrigerator As I was cleaning the other day. I noticed little rust spots. Harlows was recommended to me and the customer service is good but I rather the product that I buy be good because it's going to be with me for a very long time. I am very disappointed with Harlows and Whirlpool. The delivery was prompt. Wonderful customer service.

BUYER BEWARE! Purchased a Brand New Refrigerator. After receiving my Brand New Refrigerator at my home. The Ice Maker does not WORK! The Fridge doesn't cool! My Food has Spoiled! I have lost $$$$ on groceries. They have sent a repair person to try to fix this issue. This Fridge is still not working CORRECTLY! I AM FURIOUS! THIS IS UNFAIR. BEFORE YOU DECIDED TO BUY BE PREPARED! MY ADVICE...DON'T BUY FROM HARLOW'S KITCHEN CONCEPTS! What is sad is My family and I have purchased from the company before. For many years!!!! My Faith is gone as a consumer.....

I cannot say enough good things about Harlow's Kitchen Concepts. I originally purchased 6 appliances from Harlows in 2010. When the first ones died, I returned and was met with exceptional customer service by Steve. Steve took his time to answer all of my questions and even went back and forth with me over e-mail to help me make my final decision. I returned a 3rd time for a new dishwasher and Steve got me exactly what I wanted and it was installed 4 days later! We decided we wanted a fridge in our garage, so I returned to Steve a 4th time and yet again, got me exactly what I wanted! The customer service is second to none. Harlow's will always be my go-to for my appliance needs!

Hello my name is Austin Harlow born 1997. I am the great-grandson of Clarence Harlow born 1901. the great man who founded Harlow's Kitchen Concepts in the 1920's with the money he saved up delivering ice throughout the great depression. I have almost 100 year old pictures of the Ice Truck and the original Harlow's location. I would love to share these with the man or woman who currently own Harlow's. it brings me so much joy so my grandfather's legacy still living on in the city he called home. Thank you very much and have a blessed day Harlow's!! The picture is the man himself delivering ice during the depression about 1918-1920 before opening Harlow's without that truck THERE IS NO HARLOWS!!

We've shopped at Harlows for years but things have changed. We bought a refrigerator recently and were quoted a price to relocate the old one (five miles away for $69.) but instead they charged us $99. Also when he ( only one delivery person) delivered the new one and removed the old one he scraped my laminate floors. I thought it would come out but it hasn't. Seems to be permanent damage.

We are going to give Harlow's a 5 rating! Our salesman, Rosario, worked with us in the store on two occasions as we decided which way to go with our purchase of new kitchen appliances (oven, range and hood over the range). We decided to go electric/induction. The hood was more of a challenge because it was to be installed in a manufactured home over an island with a larger length area than the hood itself. Though hard to find a hood for that, the hood was a model designed for up against a wall so it was going to look unfinished. We worked with Rosario and the crew he sent out and they did everything needed to give the install a clean finished look. We are satisfied with the price and the attention received on the whole experience through install. Great job! Scott and Carol

Very poor service-- I went to them because of value and because they had a good selection. I asked if they would match the price from Lowe's and they said no. They told me to just go to Lowe's. I will never return to Harlows ever again. I will also tell all my friends. Another fun fact-- I did go to Lowe's immediately after this bad experience and got a better price and great Service.

If you are looking for quality merchandise and excellent customer service this is the place to go. Our sales associate, Roserio Leyva was knowledgeable, genuine, and willing to go the extra mile to match the right products for our specific needs! We met with Roserio on several occasions and he always took the time to answer all of our questions and address any concerns we had. As I mentioned, he is a straight shooter and will give you the honest facts on products so that you can match your budget to your purchase. We even found a lower price after our purchase and Roserio was able to beat that price putting money back in our pockets! This has been one of the best experiences that we have ever had for making large appliance purchases!! Thank you to Harlow's Kitchen Concepts for making shopping easy, enjoyable, and honest!

I would like to start out by saying my sales associate (Rosario) gets 5 stars. The delivery was quick. It seemed they had their own delivery people because when I told the sales associate the refrigerator doors would need to be taken off & possibly the hinges to get in to my kitchen, he went to a back room to ask if they could do that, & I was told "no problem". On the day of delivery, it was an independent delivery company separate from Harlow's & they asked, "did they tell you it is $20 per door to be taken off?" No, they did not, it was a fixed delivery fee of $99 (which was waved for me) & they knew well in advance the doors had to be removed. The $20 per door x 5 doors on the new fridge plus 4 doors on the old fridge = $180. He "discounted" to $120, so no free delivery here! I had to pay them because I needed the fridge! They did not install the grounding wire correctly (it was sticking out of the hinge) so we had to call them back to fix this, which makes me very afraid of what else is not correctly installed that I don't know about. All the door inserts were left on my table, inside the fridge everything was taped down, the air filter wasn't inserted (kudos to them for installing the water filter only), there was a bunch of styrofoam & wrappings inside the fridge. There was supposed to be an "herb box" which was missing. I called Kitchenaid & am being sent a replacement. My walls got scratched up somewhat with taking out the old fridge (it went in with no scratches, why scratches going out?) & the threshold of my new floor got a little scratch. Harlow's has a pretty good selection of appliances & their prices are competitive. Rosario was very patient & knowledgable, showing us all our options & explaining the features everything. I love the new fridge. Harlow's just needs to step up on the delivery people.
