About Canadian Appliance Source - Guelph

Written by the company

Canadian Appliance Source, founded in 2008, has developed into a forerunner of modern appliance retail. Our model is unique in that our focus has always been on providing our customers with the personalized, thoughtful help and advice of an appliance specialist. Whether online or in-store, CAS customers receive knowledgeable advice, expert service, and quality appliances at exceptional prices. Our goal is to leave each customer with the certainty they made the right choice buying from us.

Now with more than 40 locations, our mission has grown to be the largest national appliance retailer in Canada. However, we will be a coast-to-coast retailer with a difference: we will still offer each customer that same personalized advice and unique in-store experience. We will do this by maintaining the exemplary level of training each sales associate receives; we will do this by ensuring every member of the CAS team shares our values of respect, responsibility, and commitment to customer satisfaction. We will do this by empowering everyone in our company to provide our customers with the expertise they deserve. CAS has always stood apart from the competition, and as we grow, we will continue to do so. We now have the resources, the ability, and most importantly, the drive to be the best appliance retailer in Canada.

Although we have grown in size, we have never lost our focus on creating our unique, customer-centric, in-store experience. Each CAS store has a boutique feel, features streamlined, modern displays, and customers are serviced by personable, knowledgeable staff. We pay attention to the details to make the shopping experience as pleasant as possible.


We know that buying major household appliances can feel like a big commitment, and there’s often a lot of confusion or outdated information online regarding return terms and hidden fees with Canadian Appliance Source.

Based on our recent video update (you can reference the file named "Official Canadian Appliance Source Return Policy 60-Day Returns & ZERO Restocking Fees"), we want to clear the air and lay out our Return Policy as simply and directly as possible so you can shop with complete peace of mind.

The Core Return Terms for Unused Items

- 60-Day Full Refund Window: You have a full 60 days from purchase to initiate a return or exchange.

- $0 Restocking Fees: We do not charge any restocking fees on eligible returns.

- Original Packaging Requirement: To qualify for this standard return, the product must be returned in its original packaging.

How to Process a Return

- Keep Your Packaging (For Standard Returns): If you simply changed your mind, ensure the appliance remains in its original box/packaging.

- Initiate the Return: Reach out to our rCanadian Appliance Source Returns Portal - https://www.canadianappliance.ca/returns or customer Service within the 60-day window (or immediately if your item arrived damaged/defective, Do not plug in or use it) and we shall process your return accordingly.

What If Your Product is Damaged or Defective?

We want to make sure that you are fully aware that if your product arrives damaged or is not working, the standard policy rules above do not apply to you.

If you receive a defective or damaged appliance, you are completely exempt from the standard return restrictions; you have 48 hours from the day of delivery to report any damage or any issue with your appliance on our dedicated online support for returns at https://www.canadianappliance.ca/returns

Fridge delivered incorrectly, CAS refused to fix their mistake

We had to replace an LG fridge in which the compressor and freezer fan fell apart after 5 years (remember when fridges used to last for decades??). CAS seemed reliable so we found the fridge we wanted and purchased it there. I thought the $80 delivery charge was a bit steep but went with it anyway. We told them in advance we needed the fridge door hinge to be on the left, so we would open it from right to left to avoid chafing the wall. They delivered the fridge, switched the door around and quickly left. As soon as we tried opening the fridge, we noticed the bottom hinge was too close to the fridge, with a corner of the door snagging on the fridge with a loud snap. Plastic was also being shaved off from the plate holding the door in. We called for them to come back and fix it and they said they would be back tomorrow. They did not come back, so I called back and they scheduled for the next day when we were away. Finally we settled on Thursday, but their delivery time was between 9 and 1. We told them we had appointments in the morning but would be there later. They said no problem. Then one of our appointments went too long and we phoned back to say we would have to cancel the appointment. They said no problem, we will reschedule. The next day when we phoned, they told us it would be another $80 for them to come back and fix the fridge door they had improperly installed. We told them we were unaware of this charge, especially since we had been in contact with them and were very clear about our availability to be at home. They said nothing could be done. When we asked to speak to a manager, they refused to give us any number or email to contact. In the end we fixed it ourselves. It was a simple fix, but frustrating as it was clearly stated in the manual how to flip the fridge door. I went to the store and told them what a pain it was to deal with them and how they fully believed they should be paid extra to fix the problem they had created. In short, do not recommend this store at all. I had also contacted the salespeople in Guelph and they had no idea how to resolve the problem, even going so far as to blame it all on their 'third-party delivery service' they used, and hey, why don't you call them directly (so we do not have to deal with it?). Grrrr. Avoid this place.

*PS: their response makes it sound like we cancelled last minute. We did not. We told them immediately it was hard for us to be there for half a day, and they just said 'No problem'. There was never any mention of any fee if we had to cancel. It is a very unusual to not mention to $80 fee for a return visit, when we had phoned them twice in the morning to let them know we could not be at home the entire window of their 9 to 1 delivery time. Do read other reviews and you'll see they have done this before. For them, to deceive clients so they can more money is completely logical and acceptable.

Hello Sarah and Justin,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We regret to learn that your experience has been less than adequate - it is certainly not what we would wish for any of our customers.

However, please note that the second service fee was not added because we had to send a team back out to fix the issue.

The second fee was added because we specifically sent out a team to assist with this matter and the appointment was cancelled on the same day, while the team was on the road.

We would have had to send a team for a third time to assist, which is why a fee was applied.

We can appreciate that you do not agree with this policy, but please understand that we communicate the time window on the day prior to ensure that customers make themselves available for the scheduled appointments.

Thank you kindly,
SJ

Hello Khalil,

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. Your feedback is important to us.

We apologize for your experience with CAS. This is certainly not what we wish for our customers.

We can see that the Frigidaire freezer arrived damaged.

A return was approved as per your request at no penalty since the replacement model is on backorder.

We can see that the appliance has been eventually picked up on July 20th of 2023 and your balance was refunded on July 24th of 2023.

Should you have any questions or concerns, do not hesitate to contact us.

Thank you kindly,

CAS

My experience was mixed.

My experience with the company was mixed. I found the sales team very knowledgeable about their products, however experienced some misleading information which wasted my time. I needed my handle on my refrigerator to be moved to the other side of the door and was instructed to call before the unit was delivered. I called and waited for 40 minutes to be told I can't call until the unit is delivered. Waste of my time. My unit was scratched, and while the sales team was anxious to help, it took an extra day and a half to get a replacement. I guess I expect faster service when something goes wrong. Everyone was pleasant to deal with and I do like my final product.

Ali Raza was excellent to deal with

Ali Raza was excellent to deal with. He was very attentive and we didn't feel pressure to buy anything but gave us his honest opinion when comparing different companies, etc. He made the whole experience pleasant. We would go back again for great deals as well as great service from the sales Representative, Ali!

My wife and I went in to look
At appliances for our kitchen Reno. We did no research prior. We arrived at the Guelph store and Happy Patel took care of us. He was so friendly, easy going and knowledgeable that we had no choice to buy all our appliances from him. As a result we have a new fridge, stove and dishwasher and I’d go to him again and have already recommended him to a few friends.

The person I spoke to was helpful and they had the product we wanted in stock. The price was competitive and it was delivered less than a week from the purchase. Our location is challenging for delivery and the two that came worked with us on that. I will certainly buy from you again.

Sales person should have completed knowledge of the product they are selling. In my case that was not the case, this I came to know when my product arrived
