1-star Google reviewY10 months ago
Ordered a digital piano from Avery Piano Co in August with promised Labor Day delivery. What followed was weeks of delays and deceptive practices that cost me time and money. Christopher Ricci repeatedly pushed back delivery dates, extending what should have been a one-week wait to over two months. Throughout the delays, he consistently pressured me to accept a black piano instead, claiming it was in stock and readily available.

Tia, I apologize for the long wait for the piano, I tried to get the color you asked for and it took longer than i promised. I did try to offer a model we had on the floor and i did reorder the other color. Kawai just released the oak … More

They were so rude! We were asked not to play the pianos because there was a customer, which was fine, (even though we were also customers looking to get a piano), so we waited for the customers to leave when this woman asks me if I need help, which I said no, and then asked if I needed help again, and again replied no, and then she proceeds to tell us there are customers in the store basically kicking us out when we just wanted to look at pianos to buy. Definitely won’t be buying here.

Hi there Dw Abit, I know I initially spoke with you when I was talking with the other customer. Sometimes it’s hard to for another customer to hear when another piano is being played, and i did ask you to give me a few minutes to finish up … More

Very courteous, experienced, knowledgeable and professional staff. Correspondence can be more a little more prompt.
5-star Google reviewMarshall A.a month ago
I am delighted to give Avery 5 stars. We conducted months of careful search, among stores and on Facebook Marketplace, and Avery Piano provided outstanding value and easy service. My brother in law is a concert pianist and teacher and helped select a wonderful baby grand - excellent sound, beautiful condition. Avery included delivery and tuning in the price. Strongly recommended.

5-star Google reviewMike M.a year ago
I went to Avery on a Saturday afternoon in January 2025. I wanted to buy a high end digital piano, and was looking for advice on what to buy. Chris Ricci spent almost two hours with me, showing me the best items that Avery had, and allowing me to try out the highest quality pianos they had on the floor. He went into great detail describing how each manufacturer achieves the sounds that their pianos make, and I greatly appreciated those explanations.
