Ordering online is easy, I'd love terms, but haven't gone down that road just yet. They seem to ship quickly and every time I've reached out to customer service, they're timely and helpful.
I am a repeat Customer and have purchased from Kleen-Rite many times over the past several years. Each time I log in, I can quickly locate either parts that I have previously ordered in my history or decide on a new item.
Your personnel needs trainig and customer service skills respect for buyers. I ordered this item three times because your people where more concerned in hanging up to the phone than taking the time to properly guide the buyer. The least you can do is at least pay for shipping back the items that your rude agents placed in the order. One expects an agent to be knowledgeable as to which parts a pump needs based on model number which was provided since there are three choices. No t just pick up the first one and tell that's what you requested. A total shame
I had a choice of a $5 and $10 reward when I was buying my item. It wasn't clear that I could only pick one. I thought I could pick both. I picked the $5 reward first and lost any chance of the $10 reward. I didn't think it was clear to pick only one of the rewards options.
Very helpful and knowledgeable. Able to answer all my questions and actually solve a unique situation dealing with slugbuster2 issue that the last guy I spoke to over the phone last week punted. He didn't respond back and I could tell he didn't want to do the legwork Dave was happy to do over the phone.
I feel that the cost of shipping with you is really high but there are products I can't get other places and you know it and that's why you charge so much. I own a small, family run car wash and if I was a big corporate place it wouldn't matter but it's really hurting us little guys.
KleenRite was able to take my order and expedite the shipment.
Spoke with Customer service and the team was very helpful to get these items to us to get our equipment up and running.
I tried getting free shipping using your points system and it just wont work, im forced to buy from you anyways becasue i dont know who else sells these things in bulk all in one place but why offer the points and incentives if they wont even work
I have bought many items from this site and company over the years.
The products and the service, plus delivery are top-notch and professional every time. Thanks PJ
I had one time received the incorrect vacuum nozzle and customer service was exceedingly friendly and helpful with getting me the correct item.
Many of your product descriptions lack important information--like nylon vs PS brush material or other technical information on valves or electrical parts. Many times I just buy from someone else because I can't confirm specs.
I would like better understanding of what's in-stock locally vs nation wide. Ie if something is in stock in kansas city vs in Pennsylvania so I coild locally pick up faster then ups
Vanessa at kleenrite is one of the biggest reason i use kleenrite, she is always so quick to reply to emails and get things done. She is an amazing individual to have this quick response for the entire lower 48 states
NEED TO BE ABLE TO PRINT A COPY OF INVOICE RIGHT AWAY AS SOON AS ORDER IT PLACED. OR EMAIL A COPY OF THE INVOICE WHICH YOU DO BUT THEN BEFORE ALL THAT COMES SEVERAL OTHER USELESS EMAILS WHICH YOU NEED TO STOP BECAUSE THEY ARE JUNK AND THEN THE INVOICE WITH NO CLEAR TITLE STATING ITS THE INVOICE GETS LOST IN THE TOO MANY EMAILS FROM YOU.
The filtering on the website isn't great. For example, filtering by thread size. Sometimes items are just skipped even though the correct thread size is picked.
Item descriptions are also lacking. For example, PSI ratings of some ZSI Foster quick connect fittings. In honesty, the description for most items is poor.
Our company uses your dilution tips on a daily basis while cleaning our suites for our pet guests. Appreciate your prompt service in providing for our needs.
Easy to enter item numbers and quantity needed. It is also very easy to search for an item by description if the item number is unknown.
I buy repair parts from Klean rite 2-3 times per year for our coin op car wash. They usually have the best price and most everything in stock that we are looking for!
I have been able to find most things on your site, but I always find myself trying to find some rewards points or free shipping coupon because your shipping rates are too high. With all the money Im spending I shouldn't need to pay shipping.
Kleen-rite keeps all my previous orders in one place so ordering is a breeze! Also carry everything I need! Tried other shops. No one comes close!
Customer service is always quick and very helpful. Orders show up quickly and accurately. If there ever is an issue it is resolved easily.
