Rhode Island Harvesting Company, Inc.

Great Experience start to finish! Dan James ( the owner ) took great care of us and gave us a GREAT deal on a Kubota Zero turn. After leaving the local John Deere dealership frustrated ( the guy didn't know much, are they made in america or not stuff. He couldn't discount the Zero turn and the owner was busy unloading boxes, instead of coming out and working with a customer ). Dan knew that Kubota's are made in AMERICA in a plant in Georgia right off the bat. He not only took care of me on the price but deliver it to us that day after they closed!! Class act the whole way. Could not be any happier.

Purchased Kubota sun-compact tractor. They were very professional with no hard selling. The machine is beyond my expectations in quality. Very happy.

Be cautious of RI Harvesting, their “expertise” now causes me to go elsewhere. I have patronized RI Harvesting for over 15-years. During those years, I purchased various equipment, service and lubricants. I recently brought a Stihl 031AV chainsaw in for repair (the cost for analysis was $65). When the chainsaw was ready for pickup, I was told the cylinder walls were scored, the exhaust port was bad and parts were no longer available due to the age of the saw (35-years old). The assessment was the chainsaw was not worth repairing. I paid the $65 and left. Not being completely comfortable with the valuation and the manner in which information was conveyed to me, I brought the saw to another Stihl dealership (McQuades Ace Hardware Westerly, R.I.). McQuades charged $20 to check the saw (I figured it was a cheap price to pay to satisfy my insecurity with the previous outcome). McQuades stated the chainsaw needed a carburetor rebuilt (do to ethanol in the gas) and some fuel lines as well as an air filter. Also, the technician (Jamie) claimed the chainsaw had between 70-75% of its life left. The cost for repair was $200; replacement is a MS311 which is $550, loving the 031AV I had it repaired. Being extremely frustrated with the fact that I was originally misguided by RI Harvesting, I called to get my $65 back. Steve, from service, claimed different technicians have different opinions and he would call Jamie at McQuades to get his side of the story. At that time, I remember thinking when one mechanic’s assessment is a bad cylinder and another’s is a carburetor rebuild, something is not right. Needless to say Jamie never received a call from Steve. RI Harvesting will never see my face again and I am sharing my sentiment with anyone whom I come in contact with needing small engine services.
