Great customer service

I had very good experience with Extrememeters. I ordered a simple anemometer with a shipment to Eastern Europe (EU) and my purchase got lost in transit. When contacted, EM’s sales team was supportive and reactive. A replacement was quickly sent to me under express delivery at EM’s charge. I would surely buy from them again.

My husband had an older one of these and lost it. Got him this one for Christmas and he was out immediately measuring. When he did come back in he was very excited. Said it was much better than his old one. Order process and shipping was quick and easy! Made him very happy!
