Have had a service plan for the vacuum they sold me for my retail business for years. They do great work and the plan is very affordable

Consistently great customer service by this business owner. I stopped in once and he took time free of charge to answer many questions. Most recently I called on Friday inquiring if he purchased or refurbished vacuums. Very impressed to receive a call back Monday morning with great insight and solution options.

My favorite vacuum cleaner’r hose busted. The replacement hoses are no longer made or sold. The Stark customer service helped me immediately and repaired the hose within minutes. He asked for nothing in return. I have used Stark’s for many long years and they never fail to impress. Thank you Starks!

I was searching for a vacuum that will last me a very, very long time. Rick answered all of my questions and helped me pick out a Sebo E3. While I’m not usually one to purchase a service plan, you really can’t beat the value of the plan offered by Stark’s. It was a no-brainer. I am in love with my new vacuum and can’t believe the difference in suction power (and reduction in noise) compared to my old stick vacuum. I am thrilled with my purchase and with the customer service I received!

I brought my Shark Vacuum in because of concerns that the roller might be damaged. Tyler Stark disassembled the vacuum, checked it over, reassembled it, ran it, and assured me it was OK. No charge. I have highly recommended this store to my friends.

Took our Dyson into Stark’s as it was running hot and not suctioning well. Rick was very helpful, diagnosed the problem and removed debris blocking the intake within a matter of minutes. We were glad we took it in promptly, because it appears we did not burn the motor out, which is great! They didn’t charge us for the service, which was very kind. We will definitely return to Stark’s in the future if we experience any other vacuum issues. 10/10!

We’ve always had such wonderful experiences with this Stark’s location. Today we received extraordinary help from Tyler, who knew exactly how to repair our beloved vacuum. He offered warm and incredibly helpful service that is indicative of a business that goes the extra mile for their customers. Highly recommend. We will without a doubt purchase our next vacuum with them, and continue to refer friends and family to this location!

Great experience! I worked with Rick at the Beaverton store and ended up buying a Sebo K3. The guy knows his products and answered all my questions thoroughly. If you have questions, Rick is your man!

I brought in my old steam cleaner, that I didn’t even buy from there, because the rollers no longer were rolling. Instead of putting it aside and letting me know he would call me later with an estimate, he looked at it immediately, figured out exactly what was wrong, looked up the right part, and then sold it to me at a very reasonable price. He even showed me where and how to install it instead of trying to charge whatever the labor fee would’ve been for him to do it. He was very quick, nice, and courteous. I’ll definitely be taking all of my vacuum and steam cleaner needs back to this location.

I have a Dyson vacuum that I managed to break. It was out of warranty. They fixed it and got it back to me in a week. It now works better than it ever did.

I have to say, I had such a great experience at this location that it completely exceeded my expectations! The only issue is that their phone doesn’t work right now — I tried calling for several days with no luck. I even contacted the Gresham branch, and they told me they weren’t sure what was going on and didn’t think any rentals would be available. But I decided to go down there anyway, and I’m so glad I did. The person who helped me at the Bend location was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. He made the whole process easy and really turned it into a great experience. The machine itself was spotless and well-maintained, which honestly shocked me. Even better, it was on sale — I got the carpet cleaner for 24 hours, the handheld tool included for free, plus the soap, all for under $45. It’s hands down way better than the Rug Doctor, and I couldn’t be happier. From now on, this is the only place I’ll go for carpet cleaner rentals.

Took my 6 yr old SEBO in because the carpet attachment stopped working. Stellar 5 Star service! They identified the wand as the issue & reminded me I had a service plan, which I had totally forgotten. Informed me I had a discount coming because of the service plan and then assisted me with potential hand held vac’s. Outstanding service, in and out in under 30” with everything repaired and hand vac recommendations. Highly recommend this location! Staff is incredibly helpful.

Doug at the Beaverton location is “ALWAYS” helpful, knowable, polite and welcoming.
Today, he helped me put a new bag on my vacuum cleaner…I couldn’t believe I couldn’t get that dang thing on…he not only put it on, but offered to carry it to the car for me…I’m always happy to see him behind the counter when I go there

Please thank him

Brought in my old Kirby I got off eBay to have repaired and Stark’s did a wonderful job! My old man works perfectly now and I couldn’t be happier. They did make sure I knew it might take some time and parts could be on the pricier side, but I was more than happy to pay them whatever they asked just to get this beauty up and running. They helped me restore a little piece of my childhood and I’ll be forever grateful! Thank you Stark’s ❤️

Friendly and informed customer service.I went in with some questions about which vacuum I should get, I had one in mind and Joshua walked me through the pros/cons of that one and others in the same price range. I have chronic back pain (and 2 staircases) and it was important for me to find something lightweight, effective, and would last for many years. I never felt rushed to make a decision or like I was taking up too much time with all my questions. Ultimately, I’m very happy with the service here and the vacuum I ended up choosing. I even convinced a coworker and my parents to shop here and they report the same excellence.

Sale’s technician stayed open for me and was really helpful in fixing my vacuum cleaner. Don’t know why their rating is only 3.5 stars. These guys deserve to have 5+ stars. I’ve come here 3 times now to get my vacuum fixed and it was fixed everytime. Did I mention the selection and wide variety of high quality and affordable vacuum cleaners. Don’t pay attention to the reviews, these guys are legit and know their stuff. Great experience and great customer service!
