This was a good experience. We needed a new mower. Tim showed me a new SCAG zero turn and I loved it. He got us in and financed quickly. The mower was deliver the next day and didn't stop my lawn care service with a long wait. He gave me what I needed and a little extra to make sure the sale was completed to my liking. I appreciated the help and the urgency. I would recommend Harvester to anyone with a lawn care business. Thanks Tim!

Took a 2 month old echo trimmer into them for what I thought would be warranty work. After paying $60 and dropping off trimmer for a day , I got a call and was informed that my trimmer wouldn’t be covered because of “a little dirt on the air filter” there words !! Unbelievable I said . What are you supposed to change the air filter weekly ! There’s no way a little dirt caused the exhaust on the 2 month old trimmer to become clogged amd reason for needing repair . Best off all they get to keep my $60 for telling me the won’t fix my trimmer !! Don’t take warranty work there! Won’t be covered due to a “little dirt “ what a joke !

READ THIS REVIEW. Used to take my equipment here before the ownership change. Always received reasonable and quality service. apparently now they’ll take your equipment apart, charge you for the diagnosis and then refuse to put it back together, if you decide to not move forward with their “recommended service.” This season I brought in two mowers, a trimmer and a chain saw and a power washer. The trimmer was supposed to get the head replaced. They didn’t even bother. The chain saw, was missing an oil cap. They replaced the oil cap and nothing else. Didn’t even fill it with oil or fuel. I filled it with fuel and fuel started pouring out of the machine. This is an echo chain saw that’s barely been used. I dropped off the power washer with a carb I had purchased online. They refused to install the carb and said the power washer wasn’t worth fixing. The mowers came back dirtier than when I dropped them off. I’ll be interested to see how/if they run. It’s pretty frustrating to say the least. This “service” cost over $200 at pick up plus whatever I paid in “deposit” when I dropped everything off. Another $200 I think, $50/unit. No idea what I even paid for. I called to get some answers and received a call back from their front desk gal. She said a lot without really saying anything. Sad to see small businesses change hands and then go to hell. Drove 30 min one way for this shop and then waited 6 or 7 weeks to receive whatever they’d like to call this service. Just a shame. RIP Harvester Small Engine. In response to the owners response. These are blatant lies. The trimmer and chainsaw are both Echos and are less than 5 years old, the chain saw is 2 years old. One of the mowers is a toro. The other is a Husqavarna w a Honda motor. See photos. The power washer was cheap and not worth repairing admittedly. But other than the power washer none of this equipment had any issues until they arrived at your shop. They were there for just routine Maintenence. I’ve attached pictures of my “junk” to let your future customers see through your dishonesty and poor business practices. What. A. Joke. You all did a bad job. Just own up to it and do better next time. Coaching opportunity. Opportunity to course correct. Take a bad situation and just do better. I doubt you will though because you’re a dishonest and poor business owner. That much is glaringly obvious.
