Rahway Electric Motor Company

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED---I bought a single USED wave washer for a motor overhaul I was doing. These washers probably last for a century and I really needed one and ordered from them via eBay. This was shipped via 1st Class Mail exactly as I expected and it was delivered as promised. I had a good laugh at the greasy finger prints on the envelope. This is obviously a working shop that has been around for a long time. I just finished the overhaul today and my 31-year old pump motor is humming like new. All this for a part costing less than $5 including postage.

Unfortunately I first went to Grainger's because of its reputation and because I worked with them before. Ordered locally as not in stock and told it would be in in 10 working days. I called to get update (The CS lady was spectacular!!) and was told it may be another two weeks due to holidays, etc. I doubt the excuses passed to me via the CS lady were valid. That's when I cancelled - politely - and ordered from Rahway. I'll still go to Grainger, but for parts I need quickly Rahway is now in my DIY VENDOR LIST.

Every time I stop by, I am amazed by just how many different things this place fixes. Ask the owners to show you their antique meters and equipment, still in daily use after eighty years, and those history buffs will be glad to give you a tour. On routine repairs, they're faster than anybody else in the area. They also sell motors. The prices are good, and they know their product well. They're willing to take unusual jobs everybody else refuses, but the two antiques I had them work on took a long time. I was satisfied with the work, but it took a lot longer than I expected. Good work, good prices, but the turnaround ranges from same-day to someday. Still reliable and affordable, considering no one else I've tried is even willing to work on some of the strange items I dig up.

This company is and/or the person running it is delusional. They do not communicate. Then they say they have been calling. It's insane. We are the customer, YOU need to communicate to US! They had our motor since April and its now July! They have no clue what they are doing over here. I'd find someone else unless you want to be made to believe that YOU are the crazy one. STEER CLEAR!

Excellent, prompt and affordable service

Reliable. Will use again.
