RecommendedJust picked my gear after servicing. Old parts included, explanation of what was found and why parts were replaced. Myron and team are awesome! If you have not experienced this shop, you're missing out.
We have been shopping and traveling with Elmer’s for 15 years. Our equipment is always serviced well, with attention to the smallest detail. There is a nice selection of equipment for sale too! The trips are fantastic!! We have been diving all over the world with Myron!!! We can’t wait for our next adventure underwater!!
Thank you Mike and Julia for a great shopping experience! You both were knowledgeable and helped with my questions both in shop and over the phone. I am so glad to have found this dive shop. I love my new dive computer that I bought from you and happy I got a full refund for the awful Suntu from that other shop. I look forward to making my next purchase at Elmer's. Thanks again!
My husband and I went snorkeling in Key West and loved it so we thought about taking the Padi 3 day scuba diving course while we were there but we were not able because we did not have enough time between the last dive and our flight home. So we came home went into Elmer's to buy dive basics (mask, fins and snorkel) and I saw the sign advertising the 7 week open water scuba diving course and decided to surprise my husband with the course for him and I to take together. We were both nervous and excited but more than anything ... read more
I have been dealing with Elmer's for MANY years and have dealt with Myron every time. I am also a small businessman and understand the need to control costs. I'm not sure what the other two posters had happen to them but I have always been extremely happy with the service I have received there. Myron is a consummate professional and I have always felt I received added value when shopping there.
Chicago Triathlon, water temp was in the 60s went there looking for gloves. They were very helpful, got gloves and booties, reasonably priced and good selection of equipment compared to the expo who were sold out of everything needed for cold water
Very professional crew, great stock in the shop, and solid service. Well done guys and gals.
