They lie to get you to purchase a pool. They will give you an install date and lie about when you will get it installed when in fact they can’t even accurately give out that information. Then once pool is delivered , you will get a date of install months later than originally told . I Know this to be true with others as well that have purchased from them . Do not recommend doing business with them! Shady sales tactics! 

Business response:

Hello Jamie Lynn. Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear you had a poor experience at our store. We always aim to offer a 5 star experience and strive to be transparent with our customers. We do provide customers with approximate install and delivery time frames. In some instances, there can be a delay in installation since it is heavily dependent on the weather.

My hot tub is about 6 years ago when I opened it this winter and found all the water gone. After refilling it several times, and trying to plug the hole, I took the cabinet panel off to locate the huge leak. After I dug through the insulation, I noticed that one of the screwed on valves had a massive amount of tape around it and was leaking as it had cracked. Now why would there be tape around a brand new hot tub that cost 8000? We were given this hot tub with a known issue that had been taped before we received it, and I th... read more

Business response:

Thank you for providing your feedback and letting us know about this issue, Theresa. We're very sorry to hear this. Tape is not something the manufacturer would put on the spa. When you purchased this spa in 2017, the spa was a brand new spa delivered straight from the manufacturer warehouse directly to your house so there is no way anyone would have access to tamper with it. As for the panel scratch, that would not affect any internal issues with the spa. We do not have any records of our team coming out to work on this spa... read more

Business response:

Hi Tammy. Thank you for sending us your feedback. We were unfortunately faced with the hard decision to push some pools back due to the difficulties getting essential components to the filter system. We want to give our customers the full package they paid for and have every essential part of the pool working correctly. We are working hard to find a quicker solution, but as an industry-wide issue, it is difficult to find parts with such a high pool demand. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. If you'd like to ... read more

We bought our pool last year which was not cheap. I once raved about how great American sale is/ was. The people working in stores have been great. The issues have been countless beyond their control. We didn’t use their insulation and went our own route. On the day we had the pool installed several parts were missing. I ran to merrillville store for the parts and they gave them to me with no issues. About a week after we did the install we had our electric installed. We had our pool filled so it could be ready for use ... read more

Worst experience ever they take your money for your installation but can’t give you a definite date on installation!!Bought our pool last year nothing but a headache with dates on delivery it was delivered to late to install last year and had to go pay for installation a couple of days ago they TAKE your money but CANT give you a date what kind of business is that?? 

Business response:

Hi Maree. Thank you for reaching out and letting us know about your pool installation. Our installers are working on scheduling and may take a few days to give you a confirmed date. We can investigate this further for you once we get some more information about your order. We just sent you a DM. We look forward to speaking with you!

They are too worried about making money to care about good business practices or good customer service. Will not be recommending to anyone.

During their busiest pool season in recent years, it has been made very clear that American sale is to busy taking your money to finish their customers installations, very dear friends of mine have been essentially robbed by your company after countless calls, emails, and stress to no avail. I would absolutely never recommend giving them your business 

Business response:

Hello Colin. Thanks for your message. Please have your friend call us at their earliest convenience so we can try to help- 708-614-6552.

The service and quality of the furniture is great, but delivery has been a nightmare. It’s been over 6 months and we only have a portion of our sofa combo - pieces missing - with half the cushions. Can’t even use the set. Then they delivered the wrong piece and we had to take it back ourselves. Now they’re giving us mismatched pieces and cushions to BORROW until our pieces come in. Of course we have to go out there to pick them up. I will never order from AS again. We’ve been waiting a half a year for patio furniture that we... read more

Terrible service I ordered a pool table. They said it can be delivered in two days however I needed more time to set things up. So I got it scheduled for two weeks. I get a call a day before delivery to confirm my time slot ok cool. Not even five hours later I get another call saying they don’t have my felt. Not cool I cancelled my order and I’ll take my business elsewhere. I’m done with this company. 

Business response:

Thank you for providing us with this feedback, Brian. We hold a high standard for our service and are truly sorry this expectation wasn't met. We've sent this feedback to our management to address. If there is anything else we can do, give our Customer Service a call at 708-614-6552. Have a great day.
