Abt Electronics is a family-owned business with Chicagoland roots that stretch back to a Logan Square storefront in 1936. The endeavor began with the help of Jewel Abt, who gave her husband Dave $800 to start a business selling radios and helping local Chicagoans learn more about the newest technology. That final aspect hasn’t changed, but Abt is handling far more than radios these days.
This emporium of all things electronic, appliance and home-related is designed to welcome everyone in to see what’s new and what’s exciting. Expert salespeople greet customers at the door and you’re free to wander the store, seeing features like the Dave Abt theater, a massive saltwater fish tank (complete with an eel and a shark), a splashing fountain and a candy store. Clients love exploring Abt’s Inspiration Studio, where you can see the best brands’ most exciting products on display. Customers discover breathtaking designs displayed here on the second floor, then walk around the fountain to browse smaller boutiques. Check out the Time Store, complete with premium watches and jewelry, the luggage in the TUMI Store, sleek Apple computers and more.
While Abt’s sightseeing features are exciting for every family member to see, the best part of the experience has stayed the same throughout all 87 years of operation: quality of service. Every employee represents the professional, family-oriented values of the business, and they’re ready to help you solve whatever problem presents itself. Whether you’re speaking to a salesperson on the floor, someone at the customer service desk or the delivery truck drivers who bring your purchase to the home, you’ll find that “complete satisfaction” is what they strive for.
That’s especially true for Abt’s designers. When it comes to creating a new kitchen or redesigning your home, the company’s builder division is ready to work with contractors, home owners and everyone involved to make a project go as smoothly as possible—all so that clients can enjoy the most of their home.
Finally, there are the things that set Abt apart from the competition: things like their Low Price Guarantee, flexible shipping (even same-day for certain items), nationwide free shipping on thousands of products and free tech support for every product sold. It all connects back to what they’re most well-known for: customer service.
