Let customers speak for us
Worked Perfect right out of the box - Whole process/experience went smooth. Was up and and running an hour after unpacking. Very pleased
I bought a Karol 4H110 and I'm happy with this lift so far it worth every penny I spent. This lift is good for everything you need to do in a shop.
I bought two lift for my garage and the service and product were very good I recommend 100%.
i talked to Riley over the phone to get info on picking up the lift as my son was going to pick it up every thing was great and my son got it home and put it up with no problems he said it was a great buy and looks forward at buying again thanks again Riley
Great machine cuts exactly as it should and I’m very satisfied with the shipping everything came packaged well. Overall I’m greatly satisfied.
very fast shipping. product came exactly as expected
This is my second meyer snow plow. Its a great product
Honestly surprised by how sturdy and reliable this machine is. Starts up without any issue, and it’s way quieter than I expected. Definitely feels like it’s built to last
It powers through hardwood with ease and is built to handle large loads without any issue. Oregon nailed it with this one.
Bought this Simpson pressure washer for our driveway and patio—this thing is a beast! Power blasted grime and old oil stains like nothing else. It’s easy to use, starts right up, and really feels like money well spent.
looks great and its built very solid
The Simpson PowerShot lives up to its name, I used it on the driveway and siding, and it handled everything with ease, super solid machine
Cuts through thick logs like they're nothing, saving me so much time compared to my old one. Couldn't be happier with the quality and the fast shipping.
