I was in Lafayette a month ago and needed some items. A friend told me about Northern Tool & Equipment. My experience with their customer service was nothing short of excellent. Whenever I needed something they were there for me. Fantastic company! Excellent customer service & efficient process. Very polite and helpful. A guy named Jon was knowledgeable and available to answer my questions! He definitely knows his business. Will continue to use this company!

Coming from Alexandria to do business here! DJ, Donnie and Darrin are PHENOMENAL!!!! Any questions we had, they answered with no complaints! DJ has helped us out way more than anyone manager of any store has! The store is extremely clean and supplies are easy to find. You need it, they have it. If they don’t have it, they will get it for you. Highly recommend going see these guys for whatever you need.

New customer to NT. Have only been a handful of times so far and have had a notable experience every visit. Staff seems great. Met one of the managers. Think his name was Mark. Great attitude and knowledgeable. Kudos to Northern Tool for having a strong team.

The manager, Mark, was so helpful!! Ive never had a more pleasant experience at this store. He was patient, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed for my project. Give that man a raise!!

Being from Texas where everything is bigger and better I didn’t expect much in this store. But after going in and looking around I ended up buying in excess of a grand worth of tools. The staff went above and beyond to help with locating and putting together what I wanted. Back off to Texas I went. Thank God There are still good stores and people elsewhere. Would recommend this location to ALL my friends and family. If they are ever traveling thru to stop in. You just never know.

Excellent location! Staff was very knowledgeable and attentive to our needs. Store was merchandised very well items were easy to locate, which definitely caused me to purchase more than I anticipated. I have recommended this location to my friends and family.

This store was the most successful location in the country. However, Northern Tool claims to be “a family business,” but decided to wipe out its employees without any explanation. Makes no sense why they let go devout Northern employees and replaced them with new faces. This is nothing more than another corporate run non-family oriented scumbag enterprise. Not to mention, extremely liberal at the top of the company. Take your business to Harbor, Home Depot, or Lowe’s.

I purchased a Stihl pole saw from this location a few months ago. The staff was excellent. They walked me through the operation of my new tool, and ensured I was comfortable with my purchase prior to leaving the store. Staff also made purchase recommendations based on previous user’s and shop experience. I can’t thank you enough!

Silly maybe, but I love going into the store...its all the little stuff in the bins that keeps me there too long! Everyone is helpful and when I am shopping next door at the fabric store I just have to pop in before leaving to see what fun things I might bring home from the treasure bins!

Originally everything they had in stock when it came to generators were sold, for Hurricane Laura. They could have left it at that but the manager went out of his way to double check the back. He was able to find one that a customer has purchased days before but never came get it so he refunded that customer so I could have power to my home when we lost power. ( I have a 10 month old baby girl) Thanks so much guys for the great customer service.

The staff goes above and beyond here! I desperately needed a generator but they only had the most expensive ones out on the floor. I asked for help and explained my predicament—and the salesperson found that a generator at the price point I wanted had just been returned! I was able to leave the store, generator in hand! And my refrigerator & deep freeze, both full of food and quickly warming up in the Hurricane Delta power outages, were rescued. Thank you!!!!

I bought over $ 100 of chain saw blades in Lafayette, La, they did not Honor their Northern Coupon, $20.00 off, had to use my 10 percent Veterans Discount, Next time I will Shop At Stines, they are cheaper and Honor Veterans Better, not play the coupon game. Should have saved money, time and and gas if I bought it in Crowley, la.

This store in Lafayette had no customer service. Maybe during covid theyre short handed but I sat on the isle with the welding machines for a long time. Time enough for me to download a owners manual and read through it. No one came to help so I walked out. That will be the last time that I go to this store. I had a total opposite experience when I bought my equipment in Lake Charles. This store just cant serve its customers. I will have to either find my part online or drive back to Lake Charles that is 20 miles further but I guess worth the extra driving.

DO NOT SHOP AT NORTHERN TOOL!!! If you have any last minute Christmas shopping to do, DO NOT shop at Northern Tool & Equipment!!! I bought a brand new 3300 psi pressure washer 9 days ago and the pump leaked water into the pump oil reservoir causing it to leak oil onto the ground and most likely ruining the pump! Same thing as having water in your engine oil! Now it has a warranty and I even bit on the extended warranty up-sale they push so hard for, bring it back expecting they would swap it for a new one, hey it’s just NINE days old!! Nope!!! They want to look it over and most likely just replace the seal and then I have a pump that most likely will not last because of water in the oil!! I have spent THOUSANDS of dollars with this company over the years but that won’t happen again!! Home Depot, Lowe’s, Stein’s even Walmart would have exchanged it! Spend your money where you get service, not at Northern Tool!! Especially not the one on Ambassador Caffery in Lafayette La.Once they have your money you are own your own!!

Updated: I have been shopping this store from the day it opened and online for many years. I loved the price points and tool quality. Not quite discount tools but higher quality than Harbor Freight. I enjoyed the customer service and solid warranty. Unfortunately that does not seem to be their model anymore. I have found customer service to be consistently lower quality without Apologies and I any fought on warranty submissions. I made the mistake of ordering a pump online because the store was out of stock. It failed in 4 months from a bad electric motor. The warranty is two years. Because I used a company name the warranty was lowered to 90 days. Online purchase can’t be returned at stores. Pricing on a welder I purchased was way more in the store and a manager had to adjust the price.Overall the company seems to be struggling to run cheap online sales and quality stores. The savings are not worth the hassle of fighting employees for the advertised price or the additionally purchased warranty coverage. The tools are comparable to lower end brand names that are readily available from big box stores that have a more customer centric pricing, return and service policy. I assume the company will slowly eliminate brick and mortar storefronts and operate only with mail order/ online sales.The manager on duty Paul W. went above and beyond to ensure I received the correct pump and explained the warrante process. In a world where most purchases are made on line and customer service is forgotten, its great to see a people that offer exceptional customer service.
