Simple pump review
November 2, 2015

They answered my questions, emailed me a quote and stuck to the quote, the equipment came intact and in a timely manner. I was very pleased with the overall process. Thank you. Plus the video's to watch online show you how to install the well as well as the written instructions.

Easy to navigate
November 2, 2015

Very easy to find through your pictures. I went into a plumbing store and they had no idea what a plastic quick connect was, even when I showed the part. Your site made it easy for me to tackle the job myself and save $250 from a plumber. Thank You!

Backordered item
November 2, 2015

I've ordered from Freshwater before and overall the company is wonderful, and I will order from them again. This time around though, I placed an order for items I've gotten in the past and I was later notified they were backordered a few weeks. No problem, I waited. Got another email, delayed longer, OK, I waited. Yet another email... still longer wait. A fourth email about further delay. Waited. A fifth email about further delay. At this point it was approximately 2 months since I had placed my order. I called and was told they didn't have anything definite regarding when it might become available. I cancelled my order. Again, the company was super nice to deal with. It's their supplier who caused this issue. But it was a very frustrating and tiresome experience to go through. It does make me hesitant about trying to reorder the same item. Next time I'll probably do it over the phone and make sure the item is in stock!.

Water softener flow control valve
November 2, 2015

I am very satisfied with my experience as the part was the correct one and was shipped to me expeditiously. Their prices that they offered on the part I needed to resolve my leaky water softener was the most competitive that I could find.

MWF Fridge Filter Purchase
November 2, 2015

I have no complaints in terms of the online purchase process in process. It was simple and we received the 6 pack MWF filters within few days as scheduled. My only issue is to make more available the local MWF vs. the international. However they're practically the same.

Communication lacking
November 1, 2015

We bought the wrong faucet. Told them via email but when they didn't answer us in a week we returned the faucet. Since then they communicated to tell us we messed up but we still haven't moved forward to be reimbursed and purchase a different faucet.

A replacement 3M water filter leaked and tasted of chlorine. Earlier filters had no such problem. Freshwater tells me the 'warranty rep' requires photos and scientific measurements of chlorine levels, before and after. I do not plan to hire someone to conduct tests, even though I still have the old filter---which had NO SUCH PROBLEM. I do not care if I am being jerked around by 3M or Freshwater. This is poor service.
