Bought this machine from Eastwood customer service was trash the machine was trash it burned out the first time I used it the spool gun is trash the solenoid stuck open the whole time don't buy nothing from them if it's not a Miller don't buy it
Placed a order for paint back on November 6 paint was backordered no big deal they told me They would have it in on the 13th of November I called the 20th and was told it was being tested by there quality department now 7 weeks later there shipping the activator and reducer but no paint I feel ive been lied too. I'm returning there products and will never buy from them again
We have reviewed Dan’s order and we did fail on his order. We have offered our apologies to him and have tried to make it right. His back ordered paint did come in a little later than anticipated but failed our Quality Control Manager’s testing. Shortly thereafter, we made the decision to ship every available product out that was being held awaiting back orders since we did not know which items might be gifts and we wanted to make sure gifts would arrive in time for Christmas. In our haste, we neglected to consider that there may be activators and reducers going out without the paints—it was a unfortunate mistake we made and we are very sorry. On the bright side, hundreds of gifts have arrived or are arriving on time! There were certainly no lies and no intent to mislead anyone whose paint was back ordered. In stock dates are always estimates and we hold our vendors accountable when they don’t meet them. It is an unfortunate outcome that the paint did not pass inspection.
I ordered a part on line from eastwood bur never got a reicpt to tell me the order went through. Days went buy and no response. When I called they said I would get notification when It left the ware house. A week later I called again and asked if the part was backorderd they said it has just come in and the would expedite my order. Now a day laterstill no word where the part is. If you don't care when or if yiu will ever get what you order the fo ahead and order from eastwood otherwise go somewhere else.
Hello Norman,
I would like to take the time to apologize for any and all issues you have had so far with your order. I have attempted to locate your order using your name. Unfortunately, I can not find an order that fits that description above. If you could please respond back or email in with your order number I would be more than happy to assist you. If an item is on backorder it will detail that on the product page next to the cost of the item. You should have received an order confirmation email after completing your order. Once I am able to locate your order I will have our IT department look into this. Thank you for reporting it. You can, however, log back into your Eastwood account at any time and see your order history. This will detail for you if an order has gone through. Once I am able to locate your order I will do everything I can to make this right for you.
Thank you.
I placed an order for a plasma cutter on Monday and here we are on Thursday and my order is on a security hold. When I ask when it will be released I am told that is a different department and they will email you if they have further question, they have no idea how long it will be and if I do not want to wait I can cancel my order. So after the second person at Eastwood telling me that I said to cancel my order and spoke to a supervisor who was very nice and said they would review but there is nothing that they can do about the review process. BTW, this is not the first time I have ordered from Eastwood so who know why this order was placed on a "Security Hold". So at this point I ordered a plasma cutter from Cyberweld and it should ship the same day, that is how you should be treating your customers.

I see there are a few reviews with 5 stars----------------- must be customer service trying to do something positive with their time because they won't answer the phones!
All 5-star reviews we have on all sites are legitimate. We don't pad scores. We have had some trouble getting calls answered, especially on Mondays. However, we are now fully staffed and all calls are answered within a reasonable amount of time. We even installed a call-back feature! Tim-Customer Solutions
Leah c, you make purchasing at Eastwood simple, fast and friendly,very professional,I look forward to buying more toys for my shop.thank you
6 days before shipping. Plus shipping. For two quart cans of seam sealer. Wow I could have used elmers glue. This sucks I wont buy from these turds agin.
Our order confirmations state that orders will ship between 2 and 5 days after confirmation This order shipped on day. 4 We have been forced by government regulations and safety concerns to change our processes, and unfortunately it makes it slower work for our team. We are pleased to report that our process changes have kept our teammates safe and working! Candy
Worst experience ever! Maybe this is the way I can finally reach this company! To start, on December 28th I had placed an order for a powder coating gun and an air regulator. When I checked my confirmation, only the gun was on the order and that's the only thing they charged me for. Never got another email saying anything wasn't in stock. So I thought I just forgot to add it to my cart. I didn't receive it in mail, nor pay for it so it wasn't an issue. I went to the store that same day and bought a regulator. A whole 2 weeks after my powder gun arrived, I noticed they charged my account for the air regulator on January 12th. I emailed them right away and told them the story. No one responded. I called 3 times that day, sat on the phone for 10 min each time waiting on someone to pick up. No one did. I tried calling everyday…. Now today is January 26th! I've sent them 4 long emails, called everyday, and not willing to help me. And ontop of everything, I've used this gun 4 times so far and it broke out of my control. It's a cheap piece of crap that you pay a ton for. This company is a scam, takes your money without you knowing and not even shipping it, not that I need it anymore. And takes you a MONTH to get a response, which I have to get. So im hoping this will reach the right person
Hello Makenna,
Thank you for reaching out. We apologise for any inconvenience and see that an agent has responded to your emails and the air regulator was cancelled off your order. If you did not receive their response please check your spam/junk folder as sometimes our emails can accidentally get sorted by the email provider.
We are sorry for any confusion as the air regulator is present on both the sales order confirmation and the online order we received however at the time of the order the air regulator went on backorder which is why it did not ship right away with the powder gun.
Additionally, we are so sorry however, the earliest email message we have from the email address on your order dates 1/19 - if you sent a previous email under a different email address please let us know so we can further investigate the miscommunication.
We thank you for taking the time to submit your feedback. For further assistance regarding the errors with the powder coating gun please respond to our agent's email.
Thank you
I'd have given zero stars if it were an option. Of course had I checked the reviews prior to placing an order I might have steered clear. Don't make the mistake I made, I trusted the guaranteed delivery date of ordered within the next__hours. FALSE! LIES! UNTRUTHS!
Spent 2 days, 3 emails and 3 phone calls just trying to get someone from LeastWood to confirm when my order would be shipped. Turns out it's shipping after the company had promised it would be delivered? Very convenient that when asked them to cancel my order, "it's released to shipping" was the excuse why they couldn't. Released to shipping? Yet you won't see it until middle of next week? I had no idea USPS was using mules to move packages. But hey, when we pressed they said they'd give us 15% off next order! NEXT ORDER? Ohhhh Hell no! There won't be a next order there will however be a rapid return!
Great instructional videos, TERRIBLE PRODUCT AND CUSTOMER SERVICE!
Hello Jeff,
I would first like to thank you for providing us with your honest feedback. The shipping dates that can be found on the product pages on our websites are not guaranteed delivery dates. They are estimates and are labeled with the phrase "as soon as." I apologize for any and all confusion this may have caused you. Your order was placed on 11/28. The website did provide you with a notice that your order was on hold for review with our security software and suggested that you contact us with any questions regarding this hold. After your order was reviewed it was released from hold. This took place on 12/1. There is also a notice on the Eastwood website that does detail that all orders are not able to be canceled or changed once placed. We do offer a knowledge article on our website detailing our shipping methods, informing our customers that shipping via FedEx-Home does take 4-8 business days. According to your tracking, your order was delivered on 12/5. This is within the estimated shipping time for FedEx-Home deliveries. I apologize again for any inconvenience this may have caused you. At this time I do not see any contact regarding a return or the use of the future discount. Please let me know if you would like assistance with setting up the return or if you would like us to email out the 15% off coupon code offer again. I am more than happy to do everything I can to make this right for you.
Thank you
HOLY CRAP, I have never had such troubles trying to purchase from a company. They are scripted teleprompter readers and nothing more. Talked with Angela in "customer service" (for lack of a better term) and she was NO HELP. Trying to PAY them and they act like they don't want my money! DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY! Can you imagine if they treat you like AFTER they get your money?
After listening to this entire conversation, there was a misunderstanding from both parties. Peter asked about financing through his bank, which does not involve us and Angela was explaining the financing option we have through a 3rd party. It's unfortunate but misunderstandings do happen. We will work to do a better job ensuring that our team seeks first to understand the question. Tim-Director, Customer Experience
Answer: Hi Charles. We do look at reviews on many sites and we answer most of them privately.
Answer: Hello Kathrine, Thank you for contacting Eastwood, and I apologize for the confusion. Out Website Dashboard will continue to say processing for some time. We are going through website updates and unfortunately, that is one of the tasks on the list. However, I would be more than happy to provide you with a breakdown of our shipping methods. Provided everything you ordered is currently in stock: FedEx Ground/Home can take 4-8 business days, SmartPost can take 8-10 business days, and freight shipments can take 2-4 weeks. Please do not include weekend days when calculating your ship/delivery date. Our Warehouse is not open on the weekend and we can not guaranty that FedEx will deliver to your location on Saturday. You will be directly emailed with a tracking number once your order ships and a tracking number has been assigned. If you would like to private message us here or at Help@eastwood.com with your sales order number one of our specialists will be happy to provide order updates for you. Thank you and have a nice day.
Answer: Hello Troy, I apologize for any miscommunication and for any convenience this has caused you and we do want to make this right. The normal procedure would be for the customer to be responsible for the return shipping in order to receive the refund. What we can do it go ahead and issue a refund for the amount of the product and you can go ahead and keep the product as you were not 100% satisfied. Troy if there is anything else that we can help you with please feel free to reach out to us.
Answer: Hello Don, after the 3-year warranty has expired we recommend that if any malfunctions happen with your welder; the welder be taken to a local repair shop. At that point, a call can be placed to our customer solutions department to purchase parts to have the welder repaired.
Answer: Gary--I will pass this question on to our Tech Team but we won't have an answer until Tuesday. Is the machine operating? If not, we'll need contact information to get you taken care of! Thanks! Tim
Answer: Hi Ray--I answered this in your review yesterday. Just to make sure you got it, your refund was issued over a week ago and certainly should have shown up in your bank by now. If it hasn't, you will need to discuss with them as we've taken care of our end. Thanks!
Answer: I'm assuming you meant Rockwood. If so, then the answer above is correct. If you meant Rockwell, you'd need to check with them. Thanks!
Answer: Charles, Admittedly, we've had a tough time with a total system overhaul that occurred at the end of August 2016. We've come a long way since then but have run into other issues as Laura points out, where the black powders got mislabeled leading to glossy black being packaged as satin black. Laura, as far as the other issues you describe, I certainly hope we have resolved the issues to your satisfaction--if not, please email orderhelp@eastwood.com and address your issue to one of our Team Leaders or the Director of Customer Solutions.
