American Equipment Company, Hotsy Dealer in Portland, OR gets an "A" in customer service!

A successful story we wanted to share with you! It is a thank you e-mail from a customer talks about our exceptional service.

Thank You,

I just wanted to send a note and say how much I appreciate the exceptional service that Bill gave me. I recently bought a used Karcher pressure washer that wasn’t working properly. I spoke with Bill on the phone about replacing the spill valve, then drove to your business to purchase a new one. Bill took the time to talk to me about how to properly install the valve and sent me on my way with the new part and a sample of grease.

I went home and installed the spill valve, and the pressure washer started working just great, but then shortly thereafter it proceeded to put out intermittent pressure. I called late in the day to speak to Bill and get his thoughts on what might be happening. He patiently walked me through the procedure to check a another valve that was very likely the problem, then educated me on the nozzle tips, as they sometimes can also cause problems.

I pulled the other valve out that Bill suggested and cleaned it, re-installed it, and fired up the pressure washer. It runs great now!

This kind of service seems to be hard to find anymore. I find it rare for a business to go out of their way to help a customer any more. Your business gets an A rating from me, and I will most definitely use your business should I ever needs repairs, along with referring your business to anyone that ever needs service.



Thank You,
