June 06, 2025Overpromised and Underdelivered: A Disappointing Experience with Smith Metal LLC
I'm usually not one to write reviews, but my experience with Smith Metal LLC was a letdown from start to finish. As a procurement manager for a medical device manufacturer, I was looking for a reliable CNC machine shop that could deliver high-quality products on time. Smith Metal LLC's website and sales team presented a promising picture - ISO 9001:2015 certification, state-of-the-art machinery, and a team of experienced machinists. However, the reality was far from it. Our order for custom CNC-milled parts was delayed by three weeks, and when we finally received them, the quality was subpar. The parts had visible imperfections and didn't meet our specifications. When I tried to discuss the issues with their customer service, I was met with a dismissive attitude and a lack of urgency to resolve the problem. For a company that prides itself on its commitment to customer satisfaction and manufacturing excellence, Smith Metal LLC fell woefully short. The open-door policy they boast about? More like a closed-door policy, as my attempts to visit their facility during business hours were rebuffed. Perhaps Co-Owner David Sutton's military background has instilled a rigid, unyielding approach to customer service, but as a customer, I expect more flexibility and a willingness to listen. Needless to say, we won't be doing business with Smith Metal LLC again. With so many other reputable CNC machine shops out there, it's hard to justify the risk of working with a company that can't deliver on its promises.
