The original owner was good. The (new guy) took over 7-8 yrs ago. Yes he was abusive when when you did not agree with him.I would not trust him with my products now. The problem is where else can one go to get repairs done now? Especially when you want to be conscientious about what you are throwing away. It is a different world now. People now come from other countries and bring their way of doing business or worse yet do not respect the people in Canada
