What reviewers think
Online ordering and shipping earn consistent praise for speed and packaging; in-store advice is expert when the staff member connects with you, but several reviewers report feeling rushed, belittled, or sold the wrong item by staff who treated them as stupid for not knowing 12V systems well. Stock is wide and prices competitive, yet service quality depends heavily on who you encounter.
