Founded in 1950 in an old New England carriage barn by John C. Perkins Sr., the company began in humble circumstances. John's kitchen table often doubled as a workbench, much to the dismay of his wife, Evelyn. But what started as a basic blade sharpening and motor repair business quickly gained momentum, and John found himself increasingly attending to maintenance needs of customers near and far.

I took my chainsaw there 11 months ago. I asked to get it running correctly. They ordered and replaced bar and chain. I can’t believe that it took 11 months. That was me calling them every month. When I went to pick it up the safety shield was snapped in half. I asked how it ran. Owner said he never started it. I just don’t know how they stay in business. I will never go back and would not recommend them to anyone.

Had the same experience as Julie. I too will tell everyone how terribly we were treated. I honestly do not understand how this company stays in business if they truly don't care about their customers. My husband called, was told to drop lawnmower off for diagnostics. Called for several days in a row to obtain info. No call back. Finally, frustrated my husband returned to the business and found his mower sitting outside. Left in the rain. We always garaged it. The owner didn't care and told him so in so many words. No diagnostics, no estimate, no repair. No concern or effort to make amends. Never

We had an awful experience. I am not usually negative, but it has truly been one of the most frustrating experiences working with this company. My husband dropped his lawn mower off right before winter time as it was broken and needed an assessment. Perkins never called him back to follow up, even after multiple attempts for us to hear back. When my husband showed up recently to ask about it, they said they didn't know where the lawn mower was. My husband went and FOUND it, most likely left outside in the elements all winter long. Perkins assured my husband that the repair guy who comes on Tuesday

Owner/staff was very knowledgeable about the Ego brand line. I asked a number of questions and he was able to help me weigh the pros and cons of each of the models.
They do not stock the entire line as it would be cost prohibitive to do so. They do have the ability to order non stock items (though it may cost additional for delivery and some delay). I was at least able to put my hands on the most popular string trimmer model and the power head with string trimmer attachment. They had both models put together and charged up, ready to test.
Overall, it was a great experience. I will be back if

Excellent service! This is the only place around that carries the belt I need for my snowblower. I called ahead and mentioned that I really needed the belt before the impending blizzard the next day but couldn't get there by 5. He said just stop by the house when you get here and I'll have it ready. I'd give 6 stars to these guys if I could.
