Their store is absolutely gorgeous; so fun to browse and full of beautiful ideas. The team was so friendly and helpful from start to finish. I’ll definitely recommend Bowman’s Stove & Patio for anyone who is looking for quality items and personal attention shopping experience.”
“Had a great experience buying an American Fyre table from Bowman's. We had ALL of our questions answered by Dorothy who was a great salesperson. She was professional and patient throughout the process. Bowman delivered the fire table and we were thankful that 2 strong guys were able to put it on our patio with no issues. I would buy from Bowman's again.”

“We faced a tricky problem in converting one of our wood fireplaces to propane and I was dubious as to whether or not it could even been done. The crew from Bowman's arrived, solved the problem and drilled an unobtrusive access hole more than 30 inches through almost solid concrete and hit a target exit spot almost dead-on. I was so nervous I couldn't watch. These guys are GOOD. If I had 12 more fireplaces to convert I'd have 'em do each and every one of 'em. No nonsense, no wasted effort, no hassle. no delay and no sweat. My kind of service call. -DT”
“It was truly a joy doing business with the friendly, knowledgeable professionals at Bowman's Stove Shop. I purchased my first stove from them in 1988 and received such exceptional service the first time, that I was happy for the opportunity to purchase my new stove from Bowman's. I was not disappointed. Every staff member that I dealt with was courteous, knowledgeable and willing to help with any problems. I would recommend their services highly. Dear Kelli, I just wanted to thank you and everyone on the team at Bowman's for the excellent customer service. It was certainly a joy doing business with everyone and you were exceptional; with the way you kept me informed about all of the specifics, that I was unfamiliar with. Your personal attention to detail and the time that you spent answering my questions made a big difference! I promise to send photos as soon as the project is completed! Sincerely, Lisa Costanzo”
“Last Sunday our adult "kids" were fooling around and the next thing we knew one of the rocker swivel chairs we purchased from you about 2 years ago went back way further than it was supposed to. On Monday I called your store and spoke to a very helpful gal who knew what the problem probably was right away. She let us know that they most likely had the parts to repair it and it shouldn't take more than a day or two; we brought it in. Much to our surprise, we received a call later that day letting us know that the repairs had been completed and we could pick up our chair. Upon arrival, the same helpful gal gave us our second surprise when she said there would be no charge. We just want to let you know that we appreciate your excellent customer service!”
“The staff is super friendly and helpful so it is really nice to go here.”
