"As a requested birthday gift, a gift card from here is tops on my son-in-laws list -- and coffee is a serious indulgence with him! Starbucks et al, eat your heart out ... Years of testing has brought him to Seattle Gear !
I did find the gift card shipping process confusing... I requested "printed" delivery and later in the process was given the non-optional message: "online delivery" - As the ground shipping address was accepted, however, and I gave no email shipping address; I'm hoping for the best ...)"
"I was informed that my coffee maker was out of stock and it would be another 9 days or so before it ships. So, Its difficult to answer the question "satisfied" or "somewhat satisfied". I don't have a product yet to determine if I'm satisfied. I would be more satisfied if the product would have been in stock, shipped and delivered by now.
"
"the owner was very helpful on the phone. Directed me to the right product to clean out my rather pricey coffee maker. I have destroyed several coffee makers in the past. This product worked perfectly. Arrived quickly and well packaged. Will do business with this company again."
"We received our latte machine very quickly...which saved us since our other one had broken and we were suffering without our morning latte. It was a great price, too. "
"Great site~ fun to browse all the coffee items, parts and info. I ordered a hard to find part that was fairly priced and shipped very quickly for my Sirena. A+"
"Planning to shop more in the future.Want to visits the Seattle Coffee Gear in Lynnwood.
Thanks guys! "
"we liked the first one so much we bought 2 more."
"I am sure, when my replacement finally arrives, the Saeco Sirena we ordered will be great. However, I would strongly recommend that you purchase it from somebody other than Seattle Coffee Gear.
The first espresso machine they sent was broken. That in itself is not a problem. Frustrating perhaps but something that can easily be remedied. Things happen. However, they were insulting and reluctant to fix this problem. I had to call five times to assess that the machine was broken, dicker with them about return freight and to arrange for the new machine to go out. There were arguments all along the way leaving me frustrated, angry and shocked that an internet-based company did not jump to make a potentially bad experience a good one.
With so many options online, wouldn't you rather buy items from a company that is interested in keeping their customers happy and coming back?"
"I wish everything works this well."
"I called and talked with a customer service rep. prior to my order and she helped me
make an informed decision on selection's. The online ordering was good although I did get two of an item I had only wanted one of. It was for a analog milk steaming thermometer for about 10 bucks so now I have a spare. "
"I had to replace my trusty Saeco after 8 years of heavy use. There are so many choices of machines now, I had no idea where to start. I spent time on the Seattle Coffee Gear site sorting through the options and was able to efficiently narrow down my choices. After placing my order, I was more than pleased with how quickly my new expresso machine showed up! Love the machine now and will evaluate after a few months."
"I bought my first espresso machine from Seattle Coffee gear. I've done lots of research for about a couple of months. So many reasons I've decided to choose Seattle Coffee gear; their web site is very easy to shop, they have great prices and great products, there is so much information on the products (it's almost like buying at stores in person), their customer service is amazing. My husband and I are very pleased with our espresso machine!!! I recommend this store to everyone."
"The entire experience went as smooth as clockwork. I really enjoyed watching the videos that Seattle Coffee Gear has produced. They were very informative."
"Great people. Enjoyed working with Rob."
"Seattle Coffee Gear provided the best selection, price and timely service of premium coffee accessories and products. I was very satisfied with my order and its handling and would search Seattle Coffee Gear first for any future purchases."
