“Walter is incredibly knowledgeable and makes the whole process easy and stress-free. His new storefront is bright, clean, and very inviting. He explains everything clearly and is always patient, especially with all the questions my husband throws his way! Highly recommend!”
“Jill was incredibly kind and helpful. Fully understanding of our situation with our pool leak. They were able to get someone out very fast and so far seems to be holding up!”
“I found this place last October when I was on the hunt for the perfect, good quality, well-made sneakers that would support my plantar fasitis and several ankle sprains in my aspiration to train for my first 5k race, as well as go to Disney World for the first time (hello 25k steps A DAY?!)
While everyone in the store is kind and knowledgable, the first time I went I was met by Ed, who has been in this industry for decades. He took my aspiration seriously and knew I was looking for more 1-on-1 attention to detail, rather than the usual chain store where you're guessing if you're choosing the right shoe FOR YOU.
He spent time with me, never rushed me, and gave me a multitude of options to choose from until I felt 100% about the pair I ended up with - in my case, the Brook Ghost Max 3. I was already a Brooks fan but to say I had used my last pair too long is an understatement. Stepping into these shoes felt AMAZING.
I ended up using them all week at our Disney trip in December, alongside 7 months of running training, and my 5k race in April. I'm still using them to this day and am already prepared to get another pair soon and know just where to go if I'm ever curious about other styles. My husband was in the market for a new, solid pair of sneakers as well, so within a month of my going, he got his fresh sneaks too - ironically enough, the same ones as me. They're just the perfect supportive, everyday sneaker!
Huge thank you to Ed and the Woodbridge Running Co for excellent customer service and a great stock of options!”
“My first experience with Airfunners was more than expected! Although they were prompt with their processing and shipping, the USPS fumbled the delivery. Mike Moots over at Airfunners without question went out on a limb and simply dropped another in the mail for me, absorbing the shipping cost for the second time, making sure I got my product and was a happy customer! Mike also included a discount coupon for my next purchase (which will be very soon) for my troubles, which were no trouble at all, thanks to Mike and the good folks at Airfunners!!
I RECOMMEND THESE GUYS TO ANYONE!
NO NEED TO SHOP ELSEWHERE! THANKS MIKE!”
“Chris is the owner and he treats his customers like family. It's not unusual for Chris to have 3 or 4 customers sitting around chewing the fat. Chris always asks if you want a cup of coffee. If the answer is yes he will fresh brew you a cup any way you want it. His shop has great prices and is well stocked. If he doesn't have it in stock he will order it. Chris works off a smaller margin than bigger stores because he doesn't have the overhead.”
“I picked up my Wilson today. Amazing customer service, even better with the string quality and tension. You rock Chris! Anyone looking for a new tennis racquet or string look no further than The Racquet Koop in New Haven CT..”
“I've been playing for only 3 months, and never been to a brick and mortar Disc Shop before. What I wonderful experience. Todd was very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. The shop has a great selection. It's a long drive but I'll be back!”
“While visiting New Haven, I wandered into this store in search of a bow tie during the holiday season. The gentleman, who may have been the owner, helped me sift through a bountiful selection of ties in a basket. He insisted I sample a cookie or two from a wonderful tray baked by his wife. A Frank Sinatra medley played in the background. A phenomenal customer experience and I highly encourage you to wander into Enson's Menswear when you're in New Haven!”

“I needed a new suit for a formal wedding I was attending in a week, and given my Hitchcockesque frame, I am not easy to fit. Mr. Ferrucci had a beautiful suit that fit, and made the needed alterations in time. I received many compliments at the event. I am thankful for high quality men's clothiers, it is so much better to get fitted than to take chances with online orders which in recent years have not worked for me.”
“Stopped in to get my skates baked (for a better fit) and left feeling homesick for my time haunting rinks and a similarly homey shop, long since closed, in my native suburban Pittsburgh. The staff couldn’t have been more welcoming, friendly, or knowledgeable, or more hockey (when I told the clerk I was a Penguins fan, he said, “I’m sorry” without missing a beat). They threw in a pair of socks and a free skate sharpening. When it comes time to gear up and shoot the puck, I’ll be back. Strongly recommended.”
“Similar to many of the reviews here, Bryan was great when we were shopping for a treadmill. He was extremely patient with us—we stopped in several times and asked a lot of questions. Bryan never rushed us and answered every question thoroughly.
He even offered to let us come in and use the machine for as long as we wanted, understanding that this was a significant investment for us. He treated us like family, which was a stark contrast to another store we visited in Norwalk where we weren’t even acknowledged.
Moving forward, as long as our new treadmill doesn’t turn into a coat rack, we’ll definitely be back to buy more equipment from Bryan.”

“10/10
Customer service
They were able to help me find what I was looking for. Even recommending another Shop that may have had it truly shows that they care about the customer.”
“Been buying my lacrosse and hockey gear here for well over a decade. They always have what I need and if they don't they'll get it. Staff is helpful and knowledgeable”
“Looking for a roof rack for 2 kayaks… seems to be getting ‘pricy and complicated’ with ‘systems that you build’ … was literally told, ‘you might consider the time you’ll be keeping your car for the customized investment you’ll be making “… Ah, I think this trend has gotten a bit out of hand. I know the gear is high quality.
Thule. Very reputable. Yakima - Western brand was new to me - but even - higher quality?
Apologies, I was looking for something more generic and universal.
It was recommended to ‘Check with the Auto dealership for what roof racks they provide’
Hot tip: They may even be 50% less than these
Tip 2: Walmart 2-Kayak rack is $45 vs…. $200 for the Dick’s Sporting Goods or several hundred for an REI system !”
“I just brought my house eight months ago. The pool had not been open in over 10 years they came. They opened last year in August, got it up and running however, the liner does need changing it has a lot of stains from all the leaves that were in the bottom, but they did a wonderful job getting it cleaned.
This year I had a minor issue with my filter they came they fixed. It vacuumed my pool. It looks beautiful.
Next year, I will be calling Imperial Pools to install my new liner.
Highly recommend them!”

“Knowledgeable and caring expert with an excellent product. Went above and beyond to help my son build confidence and get ready to play baseball again. Thank you!”
“Sneakers Junkies is the real deal. Their selection is on point—everything from hard-to-find releases to clean everyday staples, all in one place. The store is well organized, and you can tell they actually know sneakers, not just sell them.
What really sets them apart is the customer service. The staff is attentive without hovering, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping you find what you want—not just pushing a sale. They take the time to answer questions, offer honest opinions, and make sure you leave satisfied.
If you care about quality sneakers and want to shop somewhere that respects both the culture and the customer, Sneakers Junkies is worth your time.”
“First time trying to find a local barber and E&J was a great experience. Had a great conversation with a few laughs. Everyone was very nice and the cut was just what I wanted.”
“Today I took my wife to Saxon Kent to pickup a wig that she ordered. Barbara did an excellent job styling and cutting that made my wife extremely happy. She definitely needed to smile now after receiving many chemo treatments.
Thank you Barbara for all your help.”

“Riggs Is one of the best employees over here. He went above and beyond in helping my son assemble the fishing gear for his first fishing experience. He also provided plenty of advice on fishing gears, spots to fish etc.
With his calm and pleasing personality, he is a gem of a person. The store needs more employees like him around.”
“Bought my first skateboard with the same guy Anthony i think is his
name he ran it 25 years ago in milford. i came in cause my axle nuts on. my kingpins kept stripping so I went to buy a bunch of replacements. The guy handed me like four of them. I went to pay for it and he goes all. “Don’t worry about it bud. It’s on the house” i will spend every cent possible at this shop. (i’m a big guy so i couldn’t find a 8.75 last time) so i couldn’t but there my first choice every time.’ i will spend more to support him.”
