McKenney Hearth & Home is a stove shop in Holyoke. Its website says the family-owned business started in 1959 with electric motor repair and today handles sales, service and parts for wood, pellet and coal stoves, and it lists towns such as Agawam, Amherst, Chicopee, Easthampton and Longmeadow in its service area. In a 2025 review, a customer who had spent $8,000 on a woodstove with another company got a refund and turned to McKenney, which provided a detailed quote, conducted a thorough inspection and had the woodstove installed in just one week. A customer who had just had a second pellet stove installed wrote in 2025 that weather and extreme winds had kept creating challenges with the first stove, and that McKenney came through and found solutions for each problem; that customer said both stoves were working great. A customer who went in for an opinion on a fireplace insert wrote in 2025 that McKenney took the time to meet for over 45 minutes to talk through the options. A customer who first bought a pellet insert in 2014 wrote in 2025 of later finding a refurbished freestanding version of the same pellet stove there; McKenney saved it without a deposit until that customer could buy it at the end of the year. In a 2021 review, a customer in Pennsylvania ordered a new circuit board and ignitor for a pellet stove online on a Saturday night and had the parts by Tuesday morning. Local news coverage has mentioned McKenney as a source for stove parts and fireplaces.

We bought a pellet insert back in 2014. These folks had all the right answers right off the bat.then we had to make our decision of which stove. So they did us right we shopped around but the people had to search for answers where Mckinney knew right off the top of their heads. As in for parts most were in stock if not didnt take long to get. They also were helpful to help with problems that occured. Well here it is years later we decided to add a second to replace our wood stove. Wouldnt you know they actually had a refurbished free standing off the same pellet stove. We liked the style it fits our decore of the home. When we went just to look and see at the time we weren't prepared to buy at the moment. We were just getting ideas and where we stand. When they shown us the same stove we fell in love with it told them we wanted it but could get it till the end of the year. Didnt put a deposit on it but trusted us with our word and saved it. The loyalty they have is great. Definitely our go to place. Highly recommend these folks well woth the drive. Thank You
This review is really quite long overdue. We just had another pellet stove recently installed. In short, we have not been an easy customer/situation at all. When had the first stove installed, no one had any way of knowing what the unique conditions of our region would do to a pellet stove! Through no one's fault at McKenney, the weather and extreme winds here kept creating multiple challenges. Most organizations would have just said, "Well, the sale is done. Good luck!" But time after time and issue after issue, McKenney came through and found solutions for each problem. It was a learning curve for all of us, but we got it down now. Both stoves are working great. All the staff members have been fantastic--helpful and very knowledgeable about everything in their field. Thanks so much for all your great service and support!
I went in to get an opinion on a fireplace insert, and they took the time to meet with me for over 45 minutes to talk through the options. I was appreciative of their up front and honest advice and impressed with their professionalism and knowledge. Their showroom had many different designs and the help given was consultative, with my best interest in mind. Would strongly recommend, excellent customer service!!!!!
After a disappointing experience with another company (Higgins Alternative Energy), where we initially spent $8,000 on a woodstove, we were thrilled to find McKenney Hearth and Home. We got our refund from the previous company and put our trust in McKenney, and it was the best decision we could’ve made! From start to finish, McKenney Hearth and Home exceeded our expectations. They provided a detailed quote, conducted a thorough inspection, and had our woodstove installed in just one week! Their team was professional, efficient, and truly went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. To top it all off, we saved money by working with them directly compared to our previous experience. I’m beyond thrilled with our new woodstove and so grateful we found McKenney Hearth and Home. If you’re looking for exceptional service and quality, I highly recommend them!
Just found my favorite new place for my pellets stove parts. I needed a new circuit board and ignitor for my pellet stove. I ordered online Saturday night and parts arrived Tuesday morning here in Pennsylvania. The parts were easy to find on their website, the correct parts were sent, and packaged well to prevent any damage from shipping. They were also the most competitively priced as well. Owning a small family business myself, I appreciate the care they put into the order and I enjoy working with them. Highly recommend!
