Customer experience

What People Are Saying About Sullivan-Palatek

★★★★★

“Great product and great support. I see some very negative reviews. My experience is the opposite. I have nothing but good things say about Sullivan Palateks Customer support. I wish they had an after hours tech support line. Ive spoken to both Mike and Ian recently with help troubleshooting two portable compressors. I have no relationship to the company. They were extremely helpful curteous and prompt in getting two units back up and running. Ive dealt with customer support from some of their top competitors and i have to say i can definitely see the difference. From my dealing with their technical support people. I can tell they not only care about their customer but their product and go above and beyond to help. I hope to be able to do more with Sullivan Palatek in the future. I rarely leave reviews but felt the need in this case having received stellar customer support. I hope to see other companies take their lead in customer support relations. If Sullivan Palatek sees this. Give Ian and Micheal and raise!”

“I called in today on an old Sullivan Diesel Air Compressor that was having some electrical issues. I spoke with a gentleman named Mike in Service who not only was able to help me track down a manual for this unit, he also offered up some suggested places to start. As it turns out, he was spot on with his suggestions! Fantastic Service!”
