What Customers Are Saying

Recent reviews from rent-to-own stores in Akron.

Alex is a true blessing to Eagle. She has great people skills and great customer service. She is always there to help if she can. I would recommend Eagle on Arlington to anyone

Melissa Eagon
Eagle

Alex was very helpful and explained everything! She's such a jewel when it comes to customer service I purchased another item after I paid off my living room set in 120 days !! I also had my boyfriend rent something as well!! This was the Arlington St location.

Rodney and his team are the truth. People feel some way about renting, you shouldn't. For one, they have the best deals and 4 months same as cash. I take advantage of the 4-month program often. If you ain't legit trying to pay for your stuff wrong route but if you want good quality items then its a no brainer. I have been using them for everything over the past 12 years and I have always gotten a good deal and pay my stuff off and it works out. Just had to say that. Rod you really came through for me today and period. Appreciate you! What up Art!

I want to thank Aaron's for their service. The service in store was supreme, but let me tell you when they delivered my stuff I was extra impressed. Damien and Shawn(I'm sorry if I spelled names incorrect) went the extra mile let me tell you. They didn't leave until everything was hooked up completely and correctly. I want to thank them both for their great customer service and man power!!!
