Shipping, website, and rewards
April 16, 2026
Updated review

Website will not let me store products in cart for future purchases. Shipping is extremely overpriced, rewards system is confusing to use, credit card on file should appear as default for purchases.

Payment options can be confusing.

Cards stored in wallet should be at top of payment tab instead of underneath add a new card section. Or posted on the main checkout page. It would also be nice to add items to cart and they stay in cart even if you close out the page and log back in, similar to Amazon where items added to cart stay there until removed.

Lost my reward points
April 11, 2026
Updated review

I attempted to check out and pay for my order when the system locked up and said that I would need to reattempt to finalize my order. I had $ 5 Kllen Kash or 40lb free shipping in points avaiable when i first attempted to finalize my order. When I went back to try again the reward points were gone. Not impressed as a. Decades customer.

Many product reviews are either irrelevant to the actual product or of little value. It would be good to remove all reviews that are not actually related to the product

Delivery and customs for Canadians is unpredictable and not much clarity. I got hit with $500 fee on a $900 order the last time I ordered and it took 3 weeks to be delivered

Great customer support
April 3, 2026

Just recently made an warranty inquiry about a $1500 pump I'd had installed for 11.5 months. I really didn't think it was going to be covered but Lisa Mitchell in Customer Service gathered all the information and completed all the forms/process with the manufacturer. Took a 10 days to get an answer back but Lisa gave me updates every couple days regardless. I greatly appreciate that I did not have to keep calling and push the process along. One phone call was all it took. Thanks again Lisa. GREAT customer support!

Multiple times now i have ordered products only to never have them ship. They don't say out of stock. I get zero communication as to why. Plus your shipping prices are absolutely insane.

I feel I have been way overcharged for shipping over the past few years. Recently, there was complications with online shipping charges. Would like to see the cost of shipping before I press "Order".
