GBGood purchase! My aunt's apartment windows face north, into a green belt, so NO sun for her green stuff; she'd ordered a grow-lamp but found it too wimpy (a three-legged foldout base) and it tended to spark when she unplugged the in-cord connector. I'd bought a grow-light for myself years ago, and was able to find a similar one on your site: heavy base, single tall pole, and gooseneck top for adjusting light direction. It arrived quickly and - when I delivered it to my aunt's place - we found it easy to assemble; the cleaner lines are much nicer-looking than her first one, and the light color much more pleasing (not blinding!). I'm sure it will give her plants just what they need; already they're looking more perky. Thanks for a quality product!

GB11 days, order still hasn't shipped I ordered a seed starting kit and mix from Gardeners Supply Co. After 11 days, the order still hasn't shipped. When I called customer service, there was a 23-minute wait to speak with a rep. (!) I sent an email instead and am waiting to hear back. Unacceptable, will never order from them again.

GB10 days after placing order nothing Placed an order on 2/24/24 and 10 days later nothing from them. When I called I was told it takes 2 - 6 days to ship. Website doesn't even show my order, so I cannot check on status, & don't even bother to attempt to contact them on your customer page. I was told they are having problems with website and it is in work, but looking at other reviews I see that has been their excuse for months.

GBWow. Terribly bad experience. My original rating was one star. I waited online for 28 minutes and as a result of speaking to one temp person they hired because of their issues in their warehouse, and the 2nd person who tried to remedy the issue, I've moved it up to three. Crux of the issue: It's taking WAY too long to fulfill orders AND they are not communicating clearly or frequently enough about their challenges. (They seemed to have installed new software and it's causing them all sorts of changes, perhaps one among many challenges.) The people are lovely. It's the only reason this is moving up. I feel for them. :They are doing their best under what seems like an overwhelmingly bad situation.

GBUpdate to 4/11 review Wanted to provide an update to my initial review 3 weeks ago. I am giving the overall rating a 2 now that my experience with GSC is just about over. The good news is the first part of my order arrived yesterday with the other part due to be delivered tomorrow. So it took 4 weeks on the nose for my order to be delivered. If you have anything that is time-sensitive, I suggest looking elsewhere until GSC truly is back to operating normally. I do feel badly for the employees who are trying to dig themselves out of a mess. With an issue that appears to have surfaced in February, though, it is perplexing that issues still remain nearly 3 months later. I received the e-mail from GSC's Chief Operating Officer(?) last week that was likely sent to hundreds of customers. I appreciate the gesture - better late than never - but the intentional decision not to comment at all about what GSC has/is/would be doing to get this resolved was disappointing. We don't need all the details, but some would certainly have been appropriate to share. Best of luck to everyone with their orders.
