## The honest read

A 2026 customer said they had been with Stielau Oil since 1991, when Kurt installed central air that was still running on the same Trane unit, and called him their oil man as well. That 2026 customer said that when they needed a new oil tank, it was "boom done!", and described his crew as polite and neat.

A 2024 customer buying oil for the first time said the company sold oil at a fair price, gave helpful advice and did not lock them into a contract that would have been financially disadvantageous. A 2023 customer praised quick service.

A recent customer says a truck driver hit a parked car in their driveway during an oil delivery, and that the company refused to do anything about it and was rude and dismissive. A 2025 customer said the company was very rude and not helpful because it had not served them before.

**Strengths:**
- Customer since 1991 — a 2026 customer said Kurt installed their central air then
- First-time buyer help — a 2024 customer got advice and no binding contract

**Concerns:**
- Driveway damage — a recent customer says a driver hit a parked car
- Rude treatment — a 2025 customer said the company was very rude
