B&H has established a strong reputation for offering a wide range of quality products, particularly in photography and electronics, often at competitive prices. Many customers appreciate the efficiency of their shipping and the informative nature of their website. However, there are notable concerns regarding customer service, including delivery issues, inadequate responses to complaints, and strict return policies that leave some customers feeling unsupported. While loyal customers value the company's product selection and pricing, the recurring complaints about service delays and lack of accountability suggest a need for improvement in their customer service approach.

The ONLY place I trust
October 7, 2019

This is the best place to order any photo, video or similar products. I than G-D for them. And this kind offer to refund the Sales Tax is so helpful as I buy high end equipment. Thanks.

B & H is the Best!
September 29, 2019

After several bad experiences in customer service from other photography merchants, I placed my first order with B & H 12 years ago. I will never buy from another company. B & H is the very best in product selection, customer service, and prices. Chag Sameach Rosh Hashanah!

Great Service SO Far.
September 27, 2019

I have be dealing with B&H Photo since 1994 and they have been good for far with their ordering and photo knowledge. I had one mix up on product order and they helped get it straighten out and sent correct item even though it took a few calls. All these years dealing with them when needing camera equipment has been really great to this time frame. Would and always recommend them to others seeking photo equipment and help to this day.

I started a film business in 2017 and since then I've bought about 95% of my gear through B&H and the experience has been a great! They mostly have what I need, sometimes with even better options than other places and with savings, and if for some reason the gear does not turn out to be what we needed they've allowed us to return it to get our money back. There are a lot of companies/business that are frustrating to deal with online or over the phone but B&H makes it easy! Their staff is knowledgable and helps with good recommendations when I'm searching for particular items. You always want to know that you're taken care well when spending a lot of money and these guys do exactly that!

I couldn't find it elsewhere. The manufacturer said to go to B&H. I did. It took less than a minute to complete the order. I am in Maryland and wouldn't be surprised to hear the delivery truck pull up at any minute. B&H has never let me down.

I just love this place. They have a fantastic selection of products and fair value. Unless a product is back order, the delivery is very fast. Best of all, they will give very good advice and will recommend the right product for your needs. I often find that I end up paying less than what I was expecting too.
Thank you
