We had a wonderful experience. We were stressed and in a rush for a new fridge. Bob was very helpful and knowledgeable. He listened to what we needed and did everything he could to help. He was honest and upfront about things selling quickly, but not pushy or rude about it. Delivery was done exactly when stated and the guys were very quick and professional. We love our new fridge and are very impressed with our experience at Famous Tate!

Great store, great prices. Salesman Bob helped me find the perfect mattress for me and he also helped me find just what I needed for a dishwasher and a stove. Delivery was on time and courteous. Thanks for a great experience!

We bought a really nice high-end dishwasher kitchen aid that was backordered and they put my name on one that was coming in at the end of the month. I included the installation delivery also. They called before the end of the month to let me know the delivery person would call to schedule. He called and delivered withing a day or two. The delivery person was very professional and did a great job. He was in and out quickly, cleaned up his mess, and left us with a great dishwasher.

Heard about Famous Tate from my dad. When my AC unit went out we were driving around looking at different stores. This store was great. Heidi was very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the whole experience. Thank you so much. The new unit works great!

Weve been buying from with Tates for decades and theyve always done a great job for us. Just got a washer, dryer & microwave and everything went off without a hitch. Delivery was fast and installation of the microwave was incredibly fast. Great store!

Thank you Bob for being so kind and helpful. Bob was very knowledgeable about the product we inquired about, and delivered on his word to get it in the building when he said he would.

Disappointing. We are new to the area and wanted to use a local chain for appliances, so we tried here. Immediately after entering, we were greeted by a manager who, after I mentioned appliances, said it would be a 3-4 month wait, so choose something fast.Right away we felt pressured. Browsed around, then switched to a salesman who said the same thing. The whole experience was rushed, pressured, and abrupt. Eventually we settled on appliances, and as we started doing paperwork, I was asking questions about things like delivery, installation, required accessories, price match policy, etc. Eventually the salesman threw his pen down and said Youre free to go elsewhere, you know.So I did. I went to a big box store and had the exact 3-4 month wait appliances delivered to my house two days later. There may be appliance shortages, but nowhere near as bad as this place wants you to think. High pressure, touchy, on edge. Would not recommend.

I shopped around locally for a specific set of washer and dryer based on best price and how quick they could be delivered. Famous Tate, hands down, had the best deal. I was able to see them in the store, which no where else had available to look at, and they were delivered 2 days later. I was looking at at least a month out of delivery everywhere else. They were able to offer a 5 year warranty which was also important to me since it was such a major purchase. Heidi was so kind and helpful to us as well. They will be my first stop next time I’m looking for appliances and I will continue to send people that way.

Shopping online for a new fridge after my large refrigerator stopped working. I wanted a very small refrigerator to get buy for a couple of weeks until the large one is repaired (bought from a different store) ... while looking the chat window popped up and asked if I needed any help. To my surprise it was a real person. In 20 minutes, I bought and paid for the small refrigerator and delivery was the next day. The real person in the chat window helped me with what was in stock. I have bought appliances before with famous tate and highly recommend the company to anyone.

We have bought many appliances at Famous Tate. I appreciate the knowledge of the sales people, and how helpful and courteous they are. This current experience was no different than the previous ones, and we were very appreciative of the help we received, and them letting us know which models were available to deliver the soonest.

We decided to replace our refrigerator and were advised by a repair person to shop at Famous Tate Appliance. This was in Jan of 2021, we were aware of possible delays due to Covid-19. We called Famous Tate that month, our refrigerator was delivered mid-June. We were back North for the summer and friends were there for the delivery, all went smoothly. We are pleased with the service we got dealing with this company, personal was very helpful and friendly and were honest with us about the delays. They kept us informed as to when it may arrive in their warehouse. It was a smooth transaction for us and I would recommend them to any friend or person who would ask.

Purchased an over range microwave online for our parents who live in Florida (we live in Illinois). Online experience was efficient and the Chat assistance provided was very helpful. Assistance on chat was immediate without a long wait as is customary these days with customer service. They were able to pull up my parents original microwave- stove purchase from 2004. There were a few minor glitches with scheduling delivery and installation but nothing out of the ordinary that was not resolved quickly. Phone conversations with Heidi were pleasant and she quickly addressed any issues or questions I had. The only thing that could be a complaint was that the microwave digital lighting did not match the stovetop range as was requested, but my parents did not mind.We would definitely recommend Famous Tate to others who live in the area with regards to this particular purchase experience!

I was in need of a stove mine broke the day before Thanksgiving! I ordered one from another store but it kept getting pushed back I also bought a full size freezer which was pushed back as well! Carlos was my sales associate. Told him what I wanted he said we have a freezer it can get delivered Saturday. He found a floor model for the stove stove perfect condition. Both were delivered Saturday! I’m so happy! I will definitely recommend Famous Tate to friends & family!

Just bought a new house in the area that did not come with a refrigerator. I scoured the web for my preferred finish, size and capabilities. The only place I could find one was Famous Tate. I was unsure about making such a large purchase from a company I had never heard of but they not only had what I wanted, they had it below the price I had budgeted and they accommodated my schedule for delivery. They far exceeded my expectations.

Review №23

Greatest experince ever purchasing my GE CAFE appliances. As an authorized dealer for specific brands they offer rebates and prices that beat the competition. I had originally purchased the same appliances at Home Depot but even with their discounts the price was still over our budget, then found Famous Tate and had to go into the store. Once there Heidi took care of us, showed us models and found the best deals for us directly from the company. All in all our purchase at Famous Tate was nearly $2,500 less, we got updates weekly on the status of our delivery, the crew that delivered, unpacked and checked all of the appliances and ensured all parts were there, and Heidi was a true professional and showed us that customer service goes a long ways when investing big money on quality products. Thank you Heidi, and Thank you Famous Tate for such great service.

We stopped in to shop for a fridge (and possibly other appliances) and were helped by Bob. He was absolutely fantastic & very helpful while seeming genuine & polite, but not over the top. They didnt have what we wanted in stock but even w/o a purchase, they had the best customer service. We will definitely check back with Bob & this location based on the stellar treatment we received.

Got a great deal 12/2/19 at the Famous Tate store in Winter Haven on a new Frigidaire refrigerator with the textured finish (no finger or handprints-yippee!). Carlos Ortiz was our Salesman (see his smiling face below). He was great!! He listened to everything we said, answered all our questions, was very kind and funny and directed us to the perfect fridge at a great price! They delivered, no charge, on schedule to us in Haines City, and removed our old fridge (for $9) for us. The delivery guys were very nice and made quick work of the exchange. We highly recommend Carlos & Famous Tate on 1st St. South in Winter Haven!!

Even though we have lived in Winter Haven for decades, we had never shopped at Famous Tate. Our first experience will definitely not be our last!! The staff was friendly, knowledgeable and responsive. When we wanted our new stove to be delivered as soon as possible, they reviewed their stock and presented us with several options. Delivery was within two days, just in time to celebrate Thanksgiving.

Review №36

I consider myself a comparison shopper. I went to check out washer/dryer sets and the salesperson Heidi was very helpful and not high pressure. I have compared the pricing of the models at both Lowes and Home Depot. I plan to go back to Famous Tate tomorrow and place my order. I feel like that is the best deal andI do not have to worry about delivery, installation and removal.

Review №38

I sometimes expect a large dealer like this to put on the hard sell pitch. Our experience was nothing like that. The salesman was helpful, knowledgeable about the differences between refrigerator models we were looking at and made pertinent and welcome suggestions. We had shipped earlier at the big box store. Famous Tates pricing was comparable if not better, they had a wide variety and nicely displayed. Delivery was prompt and they charged a reasonable price for water hook up and disposal of our used refrigerator.

Thanks to Covid-19 I purchased an entire kitchen of appliances without being in the store and seeing any of them. They are all GE Profile, and all work well and look great! A big thanks to Bob who helped me find matching appliances that met my criteria. I purchased before the severe supply issue and my remodel is almost complete.

Our 10 year old Samsung refrigerator needed to be replaced, so we started shopping around. With Covid-19 causing shortages On everything, we asked at every store about items that were currently in stock. I stopped at Famous Tate during my lunch break and was cheerfully greeted by Mr. Napoleon Mariner. I told him the items I was looking for in my new refrigerator and he had his stock sheet in hand and showed me the floor models. I asked which ones were available immediately. He went to his computer to find out. My husband met me back there after work and we purchased an LG 4 door refrigerator. That was on Wednesday evening, and our appliance was delivered that Friday. I am extremely pleased with the professionalism of the store employees and the delivery men. They removed my old refrigerator and had the new one set up in 30 minutes! Definitely will be back in the future. Thank you Napoleon!

I called them after my refrigerator broke down. I first went to Lowes as we are not suppose to be going out.. I found one that I liked but was told it would be 2 to 3 weeks before I could get it...that being said I called a couple other places and was told the same thing....a friend told me about Famous Tate and I called and I had the pleasure of dealing with Napoleon in the winter haven store...he sent me model numbers for me to go online and look at and was so patient and kind...he said if I found one it could be delivered by Friday! I found one and it was delivered by friday...so.long Lowes for NOT caring about people .....

We had shopped extensively both online and in various stores for a stainless steel appliance suite and thought we had exhausted all resources until we remembered Famous Tate. I(Tim) was greeted by Heidi who was very friendly and knowledgeable, and we decided on a Maytag suite that was priced a LOT LESS than Lowe’s and also included a $100 grocery gift card! The appliances were delivered as promised, the delivery guys were courteous and efficient, and we absolutely love them. I highly recommend checking Famous Tate out before you buy your next appliance(s).

Had looked at Lowes and Best Buy. BB sales lady gave me wrong info regarding the outlet required for unitized washer/dryer. Heidi at Famous Tate gave me correct info and just happened to have s scratch/dent unit that saved $200. Delivery crew was early by almost 90 minutes, polite, tidy and efficient.Ill be sure to check Famous Tate out again next time I need any of the items they sell before I go to the big box stores.

Our whole experience with Famous Tates was wonderful. We started with Chris on the showroom floor and ended with the delivery by Willie.

After Irma, half of Winter Haven was shut down. I own a rental property there, and a power surge blew out the stove one day after the storm. The next day, my tenants got a boil water notice.
