We could not be more pleased with the entire process of purchasing a new fire place from Bay Stoves. We originally stopped in just to look, but that look turned into the installation of a much larger fireplace. Robin was extremely helpful in the selection process. Madison accommodated our schedule for the install appointment. Eric and team posted on time, worked very efficiently and kept the demo of the old unit and the framing and install of the new extremely clean. We are very happy with the result and would strongly recommend Bay Stoves to other potential customers.

Steve and Ryland were great! The worked quickly and seamlessly to clean out our chimney in the old house we bought! I can’t say enough nice things about them. We had tons of questions and he took the time and used great detail to explain everything. If I could give them 10 stars I would!
Use Bay Stoves and you won’t be disappointed!

Awesome friendly family owned business. They have been cleaning my old pellet stove for 3 years now and are always on time and are extremely knowledgeable. This year we moved and our new house didn’t have a pellet stove so I went back to them and bought a new stove. As soon as I walked in all of the lovely ladies who work there were on point and helped me out immediately. I went in to ask some questions and left with a new stove! Awesome team at Bay Stoves!

Around the middle of July my wife and I went to bay stoves to find a gas fireplace for our new construction home. The first red flag should have been when we specifically told them we wanted a ventless propane fireplace. To which the staff responded over and over, we should not get a ventless, and we should purchase a vented (just so happens they're over 1k more). We were on a bit of a time crunch, we told them we needed a fireplace by the end of July.
We decide on a ventless firebox with logs and are told that it should be a week and a half to get everything at our house.

Just experienced another outstanding experience with Bay Stoves. I have been a customer for over 13 years. I have purchased 2 pellet stoves and have had yearly maintenance performed by the staff on the units. It is as professional a group of people you can find. Staff in knowledgeable and friendly. If you are looking for a stove this is your one stop shop.

I bought new gas fire logs from Bay Stoves five years ago. They have worked fine until now, but the pilot light won't start and I need a service call. I filled out the online service appointment form, yet heard nothing back. When I phoned Bay Stoves today, the receptionist told me they changed management four years ago and are not accepting new service customers until spring. That's no way to run a business that sold me an expensive product five years ago, even if they have changed management. I will not use Bay Stoves again and do not recommend them.

After standing me up no less than 5 times, yes, you read that correctly, they finally came and helped install a fireplace. Then when they needed to come back they, claimed I never paid them for the first service call so I was going to have to pay double. After I showed them my receipt they then claimed they needed to start punching holes in my walls as contractors and building inspectors don't know what they are doing so they need to redo completed work! AVOID THESE THIEVES! LET THEM GO OUT OF BUSINESS!

I am extremely impressed with Eric and his team at Bay Stoves!! We are transitioning from a wood burning fireplace to a gas one and from the moment I walked in the door of Bay Stoves, I knew I found the right place! Robin was very knowledgeable about the various brands available, and we worked together to find a great choice for my home.
Eric, Steve and Nathan conducted a site evaluation and were equally knowledgeable and efficient as they inspected the chimney and future site for the insert/Gas FP. They even offered suggestions regarding the best location for the gas hookup based on the existing

After contacting a few other companies in the area, I found that Bay Stoves was by far the best. They were very responsive, giving us an on-time estimate/appointment within two days of our phone call. Eric was experienced and knowledgeable. I was impressed with the professionalism. They were able to diagnose the problems with our wood stove pipes and chimney, provide us with a reasonably priced estimate, and the work was scheduled for two weeks after the estimate. They were on time and were very clean, covering the area and vacuuming. The workmanship is great (and the new chimney is guaranteed

So far I'm not very happy with Bay Stoves. The ordering process was easy as is most things when they want your money. The owner is very helpful but the installers are not good. They cut through a pretty major beam, which we had to have fixed at our expense. Just got a call that we have a leak. Looks like they didn't flash around the flue pipe. Now we have to replace the insulation not to mention we just had the house sheet rocked. The installers need to find a new line of business. Let's see how they deal with this.

I concur that one start is too many and I am sad to say the other reviewers got off lucky. I dislike having to post such a serious warning on a small business but the consequences of a botched job on an insert are way too high. I wish I had heard the warnings before I purchased from Bay Stoves.
Bay Stoves uses Eric Yff Inc. for installations. Yff's card indicates he is NFI certified, he has an MHIC number, and both he and Bay Stoves indicate that he has 20 years in this business. Which leads me to believe that the installation they do know how to install a wood stove insert and that

When the fireman asked who did the install, I told them bay stoves and they rolled their eyes. After bay stoves continued to claim nothing was wrong, I called in a chimney sweep, they knew exactly what was wrong as soon as I told them who did the install. The second chimney sweep I talked to knew who did the install as soon as I described the problem.
Fire and smoke kill. Do not use Bay Stoves!! They have been in business for many years. Their installer (Eric Yff of Yff Inc.) has certifications and years of experience so they knew better. I guess they just decided skimming for more profit

Bay Stoves, Annapolis! EEK! Is there a rating lower than one star? The lack of service my husband and I are experiencing would be a joke if it weren't driving us crazy. Last April we were purchasing a home and Bay Stoves was hired to check out the gas fireplace insert for a leak after I had a concern. They found no problem, the fireplace worked fine, but they broke a part after saying they would clean the insert since they were there. It took over an hour and a half to find the problem they caused. The part was supposed to be ordered and installed within 2 weeks.

We purchased a Mendota Fireplace from Bay Stoves back in early November 2010. We had to come back twice in order to be waited on. We found our perfect fireplace and made the $95.00 appointment in order to have the space measured to see if the fireplace would fit. We were told by their "experts" that the fireplace would fit our opening. In addition, we were told that the fireplace was in stock and would be installed before Thanksgiving. No it was not installed by Thanksgiving and guess what--when they did deliver the unit 2 weeks before Christmas, they had measured wrong and it did

Five years ago we bought a woodstove here (and all the chimney parts--total about $2400), during summer (not their busy season) and had lots of hassles--among other things they were supposed to call to arrange delivery and instead showed up and left it on my porch, with visible damage--no one home to sign for it, inspect it, or show them where to leave this several-hundred-pound thing (needless to say, not outside on my porch). But it's my experiences five years later that prompt me to write this review. We still have the stove and wanted an optional part for it--called the store, was told

I am not one to use this venue to ping anyone. As a matter of fact, this is my worst review. It stems not from one problem but a countless list of let downs.
Bay Stoves I assume is one of the only fireplace, wood stove shops in town and from the service, they seem to know it. When I purchased my fireplace, the wait was endless, but it was Spring so I could wait. When it arrived the panels in the back were broken. They installed what they had and reordered. Four weeks later, the new panels came in and you guessed it, they were the wrong one. Another 4 weeks and the final parts came. It's
