Review:
We bought our goodman for our mobile last month. we bought our mobile
and were told that the colemen in then was only 5 years old., turns out
it was 15 years old. we looked around and we got a $6000 goodman for
$4500 and that was because we had a famly member who worked for the
dealer we bought from. it works great!!!!!!!! And I have friends who
have had their goodman for 10 years with out a problem. I had to laugh
at the one post who said they had a goodman for over 10 years and
goodman would not fix it for free. hello its a 10 year warrenty. thats
like taking you ford or chev in a year after the warrenty is done and
wanting a free fix. lol goodman makes a great furnace. I have worked as
an installers helper with gas furnaces(good and bad) if you want a cheap
job expect a bad working furnace. you get what you paid for. pay the
extra cash and get a great job and great furnace. The people we bought
from had a bad installer. he put the wrong size furnace in and the
living room has no heat register and the heat would not enter from the
kitchen. after the dealer was here he measured the house all the windows
and doors. and he said what we needed. 2 days later we had the new
goodman installed. after the furnace was installed the heat came on and
blew from the kitchen into the livingroom. If any friends want a new
furance I would tell them to look at the goodman. much much better then
the colemen

Review:
This furnace was installed as a new unit in my house when I bought it in
2005. In 2007, the circuit board had to be replaced. It has continued to
have issues with not cycling properly. Today, the repair man was out
again, it was diagnosed with a bad gas value and circuit board (again).
For a four year old furnace to have its circuit board replaced twice in
four years, that is not a good quality unit. Wouldn't recommend to
anyone looking to replace their furnace.

Review:
Have two seperate unit (per level) in my place. The upper level furnace
runs perfect, not one problem. The main level furnace is garbage! Both
goodman. Continues to break down every other month. Always something,
have used the same hvac company for 10 years, luckily it is my personal
home with the issues and not one of my buyers. Their last chance is
today to fix it or replace the entire unit with another companies. We
shall see, won't let them install goodmans on any future projects. That
I know for sure.

Review:
We had it about 2yrs. So far our furnace is working fine. It cost us
around 3,000$ with installation and removeal of old furnace. We had 4
Seasons heating and cooling put it in. They were quick and quality about
the work. Unlike friends who also got a Goodman. Paid 4300$ with
installation and removeal of old furnace. They had Able Brothers Heating
and Cooling do the work. They said the work was shotty and not up to
code. So it might not be brand of furnace. Since our Goodman had not
failed us yet. It might be who put it in.

Hello all. I am a heating contractor, goodman makes a great piece of
equipment, great waranties and prices. we have installed about 3600
furnaces in the past 6 years, remember we are a quality installation
company as well, the furnaces have had no equipment failure yet, hard to
believe, we have had calls to repair them, due to non proper maintenance
and electrical switches turned off. I have been installing equipment for
over 22 years. never had such gfood luck with any other brand. remember
the installer must be qualified, and that doesn't mean expensive a
70,000 btu furnace install ( 2 stage variable speed 95efficient) should
cost 2500 to 3000 installed thanks for reaading the chat

Review:
I bought my home with a Goodman installed. The unit has held up to some
frigid winters and some very hot summers. The compressor was placed just
outside my bedroom window by the builder and it can be annoying at times
when it kicks on and off, but otherwise it has held up very well to
owners that are not necessarily maintenance oriented.

Review:
Goodman makes a great product. They have a bad rap sometimes in my
belief because they are installed or serviced by someone who isn't
familiar or qualified with installing goodman. I have had and installed
many of them without problems.

Review:
I'm reading through the review and can't help respond to all the
installer on this board keep yapping about "you get what you paid for"
"Use a pro installer" etc. Well, guess what? I did you a pro installer
and paid through the nose to get the best furnace (variable speed above
92% etc - all the bells). And... dadaaaa .... same problems as listed by
all other owner on this board - the furnace fails again, and again, and
again. It has nothing to do with the installation when a fan starts
coming apart after 12 months (as the installer does not even touch the
fan during installation - it's already installed in the unit from the
factory. My advice, buy the cheapest furnace, sound insulate you furnace
closet and use the cheapest installer (or put it in yourself!) Good luck
(and please never again hire an expensive installer).

Review:
Hi, I just wanted to state some facts about Goodman Heating and Cooling
Equipment. I am a journeyman hvac installer, we install
Bryant/Payne/Carrier, Trane/American Standard, Goodman/Amana and a few
more. I have read a lot and I do mean a lot of negative reviews about
Goodman. First off, Goodman makes an outstanding product for the money.
They are not junky or garbage as some people have said. Most these
"people" are complaining because of crappy installs or using shady
contractors. Every furnace is like an automobile, they require a yearly
inspection and or maintenance. Please use a honest and reliable
contractor or installer who will stand behind their work and
installation. Just some facts in percentages repairs in the last 4
years: Goodman 2.2%, Trane 3.1%, and Carrier 2.6%. And in my own home, I
use a Goodman gmv 95% afue 2 stage furnace and a Goodman 14 seer heat
pump. Both have never had a single problem. Yes down the road I am sure
the furnace will lose the ignitor, just like a car battery will die.
This is not Goodman's fault, they do not make the ignitors. Neither do
Trane or Carrier for that matter. If you are considering buying a
Goodman furnace or a/c unit / Heat pump. Do it they have one of the best
factory warranties and do yourself a favor, Choose a known hvac
installer. Remember the lowest bid isn't always the best.
