Amy: “We’ve gotten most of our appliances from Metro, and they provide some of the most excellent ongoing service I’ve ever experienced. They’re a great company!”
Claire: “Metro has been the only place we have purchased appliances over the last 10 years. The customer service is excellent.”
Sara: “I’ve bought several appliances at Metro, and I love their great customer service and good prices!”
Becky: “What I love best about Metro is the fact that they know what they are talking about, customer service is great.”
Lisa: “I just love shopping at Metro Appliances because of the wonderful selection and the great attention that you get from the staff. Some places that you go in shopping for appliances the staff will really overwhelm you, but not at Metro. They were there to answer all my questions and help me as I needed it but they also gave me my space to look around too.”
Amber: “I love Metro..it is the best place to buy appliances and they have the best prices too!”
Page: “Metro has the best selection of appliances in the area. Their staff know what customer service is all about. I used to compare prices at several retailers, but they just can’t be beat. Now we just start and end at Metro.”

I am grateful for family and friends for always having my back!
I am grateful for my children that are selfless. They acknowledge difficult times for me and stand by my side. I am thankful for the scarifics they all make. My son blessed me with a granddaughter this year. he got deployed when she was 2 months old. I am grateful for his dedication to what he does. He loves his job. He checks in regularly to make sure I am ok. My 2 girls in college cheer for their universities yet they make time to work so they do not have to ask me for a lot of money. I am thankful God had his hand in how they all turned out.
Congratulations on the new grandbaby, Misti.

Our family discusses daily thanks with our “high and low of the day ” dinner conversations but my overall gratefulness for this year goes out to all of our new AR friends who have graciously accepted us into their lives and treated us like family. Without them I cant imagine how difficult this transition would have been. We lived in a local hotel for 6 months before we found our new house and a new fridge would be icing on the cake. Today marks our one year anniversary of AR living and we feel blessed everyday for finding such a welcoming place to call home. Your site has helped me navigate events in the area and find local businesses quickly. Thanks nwamotherlode.
