What Customers Are Saying

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

Always have an easy and great experience dealing with the people at the Forest Hills store. Will surely return. They like to keep in touch, but not too often to see if there is anything you need. They always thank you for paying off a product and make sure you're happy with it. All around friendly people at this store. I've gotten an awesome tv, laptop that is perfect for my needs and a PS5 when no one had them. They also ask if there is anything you may be interested in in the future so they can let you know if they get anything in you would want. They care about the client as a person and not a target. Pretty awesome people and service all around! 7 stars out of 5!

Excellent customer service. YOUR EMPLOYEE KRISTY IS THE REASON WHY I’M MAKING THIS REVIEW. I watched her handle me another customer and answer the billion phone calls that came through! She did this all alone on a MONDAY! I did not see one other employee. I paid off one account and rented something else all because of her excellent customer service and knowledge. Thank u KRISTY!!

I have been leasing a washer and gas dryer set for over a year. I recently moved and although they said they just needed to know the new address, they were happy to help when I said I need assistance moving the set. The people they sent were amazing! Very courteous and kind, funny and so helpful. I couldn't get the nuts off for the tubes on the washer and they didn't mind, did it quickly and when they got them off, they skillfully got them up the stairs (steep, narrow basement stairs which is why I needed help) and followed me to my new place down the road. They were also very respectful about closing the door behind them (I have a cat) and quickly got the set down the stairs (same lay out as my old place, very narrow basement stairs) and set up my washer, testing to make sure it was done right. I work in customer service, have for years and I know better than most what bad, good and great customer service is. I'm pretty strict with grading customer service, but they were truly great! They seemed to enjoy their job no matter how exhausting it must be and genuinely happy to help. Don't let corporate Aaron's customer service scare you off, I have not had a bad experience with this store yet and am happy to keep leasing. I just ordered a new couch from this store solely because of their service when I could have bought one somewhere else.
