October 2, 2022

I have a very old spa and it is hard to find parts. It was easy to find what I needed.

Great company
October 2, 2022

I placed an order for an item I needed. I received a confirmation over the weekend and then first thing on Monday morning I received an email stating the item was on backorder for 3-4 weeks. They immediately gave me an alternative product that cost a few dollars more but was available for shipping immediately. We took that offering and received the product within a few days. Great customer service! Thank you!

Amatuers that can't run a retail website
September 20, 2022

Purchased 7 Pentair DE replacement grids which is a normal full-size replacement. They had a good overall price including shipping so I went with it. They put the charge through and confirmed the order, but then emailed me saying they can't cover the shipping based on what they quoted/charged and I need to pay another $37 to get them shipped. My money is already tied up with them, so I looked at other options and saw that they are all ~$30 more, so I offer to pay $30 to help cover the shipping thinking they should eat some of the difference since they're a retailer who quoted a landed price. They refused over the $7 difference, so I cancelled. If you order something from Wild West Pool Supply, expect them to email you with demands for more money. You're better off going with another company that can properly calculate shipping costs for orders and doesn't keep coming to you with their hand out wanting more.

Hi Mark, I sincerely apologize for the trouble here — your criticism is totally valid.

In service of transparency: all the large shipping vendors (UPS, FedEx, USPS) are changes rates like mad right now — this is causing chaos with a lot of their partners downstream, and for us, it affects the way our rates are calculated/served up on our site.

You're correct that you shouldn't need to worry about any of that — that's our job. It is fixed in most instances now, and should be entirely within a few weeks. Thank you for being a customer, and again, I sincerely apologize for the trouble here.

Lost In Shipment
September 14, 2022

The ordering process was fast and easy however, I hadn't received my order after a few weeks and attempts to contact customer service went unanswered. Could be supply chain issues but who knows? All-in-all, 2-stars because ordering should be easy. The customer service aspect is what separates the truly outstanding companies from the average ones.

Wild West BANDITS
August 31, 2022

Wild West Pool Supplies are wild west BANDITS! Do not let them scam you. They advertised a chlorinator online WITH a 12-month salt cell for $659. After emailing the company to confirm stock and getting a very well written response in perfect english, I placed the order. Four hours later they claim there was a problem processing my order and they can offer me a different part for $58 more. Turned out to be the same part I ordered. RED FLAG ALERT! They told then told me the salt cell was NOT included and it was $400 more! They claim the website wasn't updated in time for their inventory or some BS they tried to make it sound real technical. I told them I wanted the advertised products for the advertised price. They said no. I cancelled the order immediately and called my credit card company. UPDATE: It's two weeks later and they are STILL advertising the same SCAM. Search for Hayward Salt & Swim 3C to see for yourself.

Hi Matt, I'm truly sorry for the trouble here. We are doing some work on our catalog (merging information from different vendors we work with) and there's been some issues — in this case, we had the incorrect information about the product listed. We will absolutely make it work wherever we can in terms of order issues, but we cannot send out a free salt-cell.

That issue has since been corrected — I do hope you'll come back and give us another shot. But, again, I do apologize for the trouble here.

They got good reviews and decent prices however the part I ordered showed on the website that it was in stock and would ship within 3-5 days. I get an email from Mary M that says sorry the part you ordered is no longer in stock, is will now be 3-5 weeks "Prices subject to Change" and they included a link to the product I purchased. I clicked on the link and it still shows in stock. Sorry not a good 1st impression.

Hi Greg, I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience here. Our system checks inventory levels against all our distribution partners (over 100,000 SKUs) every morning to update our website — this method is about 97% accurate.

Occasionally we do see popular parts sell out in between the time inventory is checked in the morning and when the order is placed. Unfortunately as you can imagine, the global supply chain issues of the past two years have made the management of inventory extremely challenging.

That said, you are absolutely correct, we need to do better. Our team is working HARD on this issue; we hope to have near 100% accuracy live within the next few months. And we are ALWAYS happy to double-check inventory directly ahead of order placement if that is helpful!

We have an old Clayton-Lambert pool, and it can be a challenge to find replacement baskets - your local store definitely will not have them! The basket was exactly what we needed, and it was delivered on time. We are so grateful for having our part and the great service.

Bait & switch
July 13, 2022

Two times now (thinking the first time was an honest mistake) ordering hard to find parts they sold me items they never had. After listing as available, taking payment info, saying order is placed, even excepting an extra cost for shipping... the next day both times I get an Email saying they don't have it & wait for 2 to 3 months at a possible higher cost or get refunded within a week (at their convenience) BS business practice. Never again
