I would recommend KaTom to my family and friends.
by utvolfan1982 ,Feb 02 '09
I recently purchased some Anchor Hocking wine glasses from KaTom and felt compelled to write how satisfied I was with my entire ordering experience. First, the website was easy to use so I was quickly able to find exactly the right size of wine glass I was looking for and second, the customer service representive who called me to informme on a shipping issue (I had mistyped my zipcode), was very pleasant.

My overall experience- Good
by rjack ,May 18 '09
Great selection at great prices. However, I soon learned they do not stock everything listed on their website. My flatware order,  heavy duty tongs, and all my Polar Ware items came from the manufacturer. This caused some delays, but only for 2 days. There was an exception on a large dinner fork that we both found it to be a special order item and the manufacturer was out. For the weekend they shipped me some regular dinner forks and I got them in time.

On another note- I absolutely love Polar Ware "The Edge" steam table pans and KaTom's price on them is great! After handling Vollrath and other brands, they either pinched or cut me. Not with "The Edge" pans as these are a dream to handle.

Great price + fast shipping = happy customer!
by jlj01 ,Nov 19 '08
I ordered a cream whipper and was very pleased at the price and shipping.  KaTom had the lowest legitimate price that I could find (a couple websites offered it for a couple buck less but all the reviews for those sites complained about never receiving the items ordered) and reasonable shipping rates.  The best part was how quickly it arrived!  I ordered it on a Weds. and it shipped the next day!  I got it in less than a week, which isn't bad for basic UPS ground shipping.

I would definitely order from KaTom again.

i had a great experience with this company and how great it was to get an actual person on the phone! i ordered a large piece of restaurant equipment and I was contacted the same day i placed my order with my freight truck tracking number. better yet, my commercial refrigerator arrived as promised and i will definitely be ordering from this company in the future.

i am already looking at purchasing a fryer battery and I have done a thorough comparison shopping and hands down katom has the best prices around as well as the most information. they have videos about fryer filtration and the information about energy savings you can get by choosing one model vs another. only though this site am i able to learn so much about the products i am looking to purchase. great site and great company!

Received a confirmation email of my order. In the email it included the ability to TRACK YOUR ORDER - however this is only useful once it has shipped. There is no ability to check the current status of your order on the merchant's website. I still haven't received the items ordered (that were shown to be in stock) - and no idea what their status is - or when/if they will even be delivered.

I found the item almost immediately and placed the order. The process was easy to understand and only took a few minutes, even for a new customer. The product arrived when I was told it would and in perfect condition. It's exactly what we wanted but couldn't find locally. We may be back for another one soon. Thank you. Debra Coggin

ordered product 10/23; did not receive product and called about 10/26.(your deliveries, depending on product are usually very prompt. That is why I called after 3 days) service said they forgot to tell me it was on back order (?) Salesperson:Jeennifer, and that it would be about 7 days. Yesterday, 11/02 was 7 days and I have not received product. Have not even received an e mail so I could track it. Could not cancel order as I was told I would have to receive it first then send it back. Disappointing service! Jacob Albrecht

Katom is great. We buy most of our restaurant equipment from them. Their site's search engine could use improvement and it is difficult to find items previously ordered. I have to refer to orders stored on my computer. Other than that, no problems.

I like the wide variety of items available. I would like to see more supplies for bakers and more caterers supplies. I discovered you have more products than what is showing up online. You need to show everything online. Next things I am looking to purchase in the near future. A table on wheels that folds and fits into my car for catering. Baby changing table that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

It stated that if the product was not in stock you would be notified before you completed your order. I placed a order and paid for 2 day shipping. I was not informed it was not in stock. The day I was expecting the order I got a phone call that it was not in stock and would be about 10 days. This put me in a bind because I needed the steamer immediately.

Great prices and easy ordering process. Only problem consited of UPS losing the package and it took more the two weeks of finally recieve our order. When I called customer service there was some confusion as to what was going on. But, Sherry called me back, explained everything, and re-shipped our order directly. She was very helpful and I appreciated her efforts. Our order arrived yesterday.

The article ordered was as featured, demensions, color, etc. However some of this information was not included in the narrative. I sent an e-mail which was answered within a reasonable time frame and the order was processed the same day. The discounted price was also attractive in that it beat the competition for the same or similar product. I am very satisfied with the purchase.

Ordered items to be shipped 2nd day air, they did not arrive on time. Was informed that the order was placed at a time that would have been forwarded to following day, therefore it did not arrive to me on time. Also I still had to pay 1/2 the freight charge rather than them refunding the whole amount. They were very nice to work with but dont' feel I should have had to pay the extra shipping charges. THere was no information on the website that I could see that would show that the order had to be placed in order to get it when expected.

There was a error on the price listed on the web site so I received a call from Beverly in Customer Service. She explained the problem and told me the new/correct price. I told her I thought I could find something cheaper. She checked and told me if I could something cheaper to email the web site and they would match the price. They actually sold it to me for a dollar less than the competitor. I was impressed.
