This was the second time we rented space heaters from this company, and the second time they gave us non-working heaters.
We called and they couldn't send someone to fix or replace them, so we were stuck with only one working heater for our event, out of two that we ordered (again, this is the second time this has happened).
To make matters worse, we ordered these rentals to come with propane tanks, but during pick-up, they had none available. This forced us to have to buy propane tanks ourselves. This cost us more than it would've if we had just rented with Sunbelt (we paid $130 instead of the $80). Now we are stuck with two propane tanks we absolutely don't need - one of which we couldn't even use because their heater was broken. So wasteful and infuriating.
At drop-off, my husband explained the situation, hoping they'd find a way to make up for the inconveniences of the extra cost of propane tanks, including one completely unused. They refunded us for the non-working heater and pretty much said we were SOL with the propane tanks.
This was a really disappointing experience. I can't emphasize enough how this was the second time in a row we've had a similar issue, which is why I cannot recommend.
