Knowledgeable and has a Great selection of products.
I had mixed experiences with this purchase.
I purchased a 100" Hisense TV, soundbar, mounting services, a Best Buy membership, and used a Best Buy credit card for the purchase. My original installation appointment was scheduled, but on installation day I was informed that the TV was not actually available in inventory and the appointment had to be rescheduled.
That was the most frustrating part of the experience. After waiting weeks and arranging my schedule around the installation, I learned on the day of delivery that the product was unavailable.
When the installation was eventually completed, I also encountered confusion regarding what services were included versus additional charges. The distinction between mounting, soundbar setup, and other installation services was not clearly communicated during the original purchase process, which led to frustration on installation day and additional charges.
To be fair, the installation team was professional and courteous. They completed the installation successfully and the TV and soundbar are working well.
I also contacted Customer Relations regarding the experience. Best Buy ultimately provided a $40 gift card as a customer service gesture, which I appreciate. However, I never received the follow-up email documentation I specifically requested.
My issue was never with the installers or the final product. The TV is great. My concern was the inventory management, communication, and transparency throughout the process.
I hope Best Buy improves coordination between sales, inventory, scheduling, and installation teams because the customer experience did not match the premium experience, I expected when making a purchase of this size and becoming a Best Buy Total member.
