Malcolm Hodgskiss from Hamilton

I have heard good things about Peter martin appliance so when my gas stove/oven needed fixing I gave them a call. My oven was taking forever to heat up and even then not reaching full temperature. Their service tech was on time and friendly. He explained that it was the 'timer'. In these models the old 'screw in' fuzes are gone. Instead of replacing the 2 dollar fuze you replace the 600 dollar timer! The problem is they no longer make the timers! So now you're replacing the entire stove for what should have been a 2 dollar fuze! Thanks Jenn Air! Anyway the tech from peter martin said he could get me a good buy on a good used one (since I didn't really have the dough for a new one) but I never heard back fro him. I think maybe he screened me as a difficult customer. Maybe he thought my anger at Jennair was directed at him . To be fair I could have followed up more than I have. While I still have the same half busted oven/stove I continue thinking well of Peter Martin appliances. My experience is likely a fluke.

In barbecues theres a big void between a small coleman camping stove and a full size back yard barbecue that runs on a large propane tank . The one is too small to cook much and the other lacks portability . There aren't many small units capable of turning out a decent measure of btus. I needed something to cook for my crew while doing renovations in the region. It had to be portable and reasonably powerful as well. What I really needed was 'product expertise'/knowhow/acumen. At the big box outfits that would be a hit and miss proposition so I thought of Chadwicks. I got a Weber and while it can run on a small fuel bottle we also got the fittings for a full sized tank. The crew said they eat better on the job than at home! the prices at Chadwicks are great but the expertise is what brings me to them.
