Great Service and High Quality Products From Kiefer Equipment

Summer is here, which means you should probably take a second look at your yard… or even your lawn equipment. Do you have the right tools? Do your products keep breaking down? Is time to upgrade your lawn equipment?

“Good tractors are hard to find,” James Kiefer, owner of Kiefer Equipment, states. This was the motivation for him and his father to start this company 26 years ago. The Kiefer family wanted to be able to provide high-quality tractors and lawn care equipment to people, whether they are very serious about their lawn care or just casual. That's why James knows now more than ever how important it is to be that go-to lawn care store.

“There’s not a lot of lawn and garden businesses anymore. There used to be one on every corner years ago,” James says. Because of this, James knows that it is extremely important to know that you can get high-quality equipment and great customer service from his shop.

As far as equipment goes, Kiefer offers a wide variety. From chainsaws to weed eaters, blowers to trimmers, along with a variety of tractors and mowers, Kiefer can help you find what works for you best in your lawn care and small farm needs. Kiefer is also able to service the products they sell, so if there are any issues with tractors or equipment, they will fix them in-house. 

According to James, their STIHL product line is the most popular. “People come in for STIHL because it’s some of the best equipment you can buy,” says James. 

James and his wife, Michelle, are true experts in tractors and lawn equipment. Co-worker, Karen Derksen, explains, “James and Michelle will often take the time – they call it ‘giving school’ – to go to people’s houses and they show them how to [operate their equipment]. They’ll stay there as long as they need.” It really adds that “personal touch” to their business.

Going to customers' houses doesn’t happen all the time but with larger tractors or equipment, they are excited to be a help to the community they truly love and admire. With all this in mind, don't forget that Father’s Day is coming up soon! Be sure to visit Kiefer Equipment at 714 W. Liberty St, Medina, OH 44256 to get a great gift that lasts.
