Zero Customer Service

  • - Johnson Outdoor directs Canadian customers to store locator for US products.
  • - Stores say they can't source the items; order from Minn Kota or Old Town.

Johnson Outdoor refuses to sell me products from the US and tells me to use the store locator to find Canadian suppliers. The problem is the Canadian stores that carry Johnson Outdoor products, Minn Kota, Old Town Canoe, say they can't get what I need and I must order from Minn Kota or Old Town directly.

But Minn Kota and Old Town tell me to find a Canadian seller. WTF? Johnson Outdoor will not help me find what I need. Clearly a soulless corporation.

Johnson Outdoor needs to realize it's 2026 not 1996 and provide a way that Canadian customers can actually order what they need. I doubt they will do anything.

User's recommendation: Buy Canadian products instead.

One/all of three reasons for the issue. One, currency fluctuations make it less profitable/more complicated for a US based company.

Most consumers do not want to pay all the duties/taxes above the cost of goods.

But most likely, JO has agreements in place with Canadian retailers that sell their products that they will not compete with them. If I owned a chain of stores in Canada, I will sell JO products but I don’t want to compete with the US based site.

  • - Phone line didn’t answer, blocking service for hummingbird radio; this was not a good experience; check phone before buying any hummingbird product.

Answer the phone so I can send my hummingbird radio in for service! This was not a good experience. Please check with the company where you buy any hummingbird product before you purchase their item to see if customer service answers the phone.

User's recommendation: Beware of hummingbird customer service
