After waiting a long time, I was finally able to purchase a tractor loader backhoe and couldnt purchase it from a better place. A family owned business always treats the customer better. Tim was an absolute gentleman answering all my questions and taking the time to explain everything that I needed to know about my piece of equipment. DH Marvin set everything up perfectly . I am very pleased with my purchase and highly recommend this family owned business !!!
We bought our first John Deere 160 Lawn tractor from DH Marvin in 1984. Since then we have purchased an X300 and a 570 Lawn tractor. All are still in the family and cutting lawns on a regular basis. Every machine has met and exceeded our expectations. We have also bought blowers, trimmers, and other accessories from Marvins over the years. The sales people have been very knowledgeable and have provided just what we needed at each purchase. The machines are all very reliable and have required few service calls. When we did need service it was always performed quickly and completely. Never a return all for the same issue.Besides product quality the after purchase support is extremely important to us. The service technicians, people in the parts department and the administrators have always been friendly and experts in their areas of expertise.We recently took delivery of a 1025R Compact Tractor with backhoe, snow plow, and frontend loader. Tim Marvin advised us perfectly in terms of providing a tractor that meets our requirements!! We have owned it for about a month and it has been able to complete every task we have thrown at it. It is an Ideal tractor to accomplish every job that a home owner or small landscape business operator can need to complete every day tasks. It does large tractor work and has a small tractor feelDH Marvin and John Deer equipment are a perfect matched and they are a company we will continue to work with for many, many more years!!!!
Truly outstanding service with attention to detail in selection of model compact tractor best suited for our needs and usage. Purchase and delivery of new 2032R all handled by one of the principals of DH Marvin.
Very efficient, friendly, professional experience from beginning to end. Matt took the time to walk me through the options, and he was able to offer a model that was uniquely configured for my needs--something a hardware box store doesnt carry. Delivery included a thoughtful walkaround and guidance on maintenance, with a couple thank you items. I have confidence that the tractor was set up properly by pros that deal with them day in and day out. And... the price was the same as with box stores (when comparing other models). Definitely glad to have work with DH Marvin.
I would gladly give more stars if possible! I went to D.H. Marvin because thats where my Dad went over 40 years ago. I had checked other brands and Dealerships, but felt like I was home with D. H. Marvin. Dealing with Curtis was an extremely relaxing decision, with no pressure. Curtis really knows his stuff, as Im sure everyone else there does, recommending options no one else brought up. They are so busy, like most everyone these days, so it took a few weeks to build my 1025R my way, but everything was in stock.My tractor was delivered by Curtis about 1-1/2 weeks ago, waxed, lubed, full of fuel, ready to work! Curtis went over everything with me, definitely not a drop and run. Highly recommend dealing with D.H. Marvin & Sons, and cant wait to add attachments from them!
D H Marvin & Son is a GREAT place to buy stuff like log splitters, leaf blowers, John Deere riding lawn mowers and John Deere gator, also parts, hydraulic hoses, lubricant’s, filters, equipment service kits and drive belts. The staff at D H Marvin & Son are friendly and knowledgeable, since 2009 my wife and I have spent over $25,000 in various equipment and parts and love going there. I just recently bought a John Deere Z530R Zero Trak mower and couldn’t be happier. Going to D H Marvin & Son is like going to the candy store!
My husband and I have been dealing with Tim at Marvin’s for approximately 20+ years. I recently decided to buy a Gator, as we do a lot of hauling and planting on our property, which includes a cemetery where we sadly buried my dad in October, 2020. My husband has a big-ish tractor, accessories, and a mower. I decided to add to the fleet! I wanted to finance it myself, as we own a business and we don’t like to mix the two. I filled out the application and Tim said he wouldn’t be able to deliver it until the following week. Of course, we good naturedly harassed him, but that would have been fine. Let me say I think we walked in at around 3 pm. They close at 5, I think. Anyway, we left and I received a call from JD Credit that I couldn’t afford my mortgage, let alone a 🐊 on my income alone. Tim called to check on me and when I told him, he said he’d call me back. He called right back and said, “You’re all set. I’ll see you in 10 minutes.” I thought he was joking and I emphasized that I really didn’t need it right away (although I did kind of want it for the upcoming weekend 😁). Sure enough, 10 minutes later, down the driveway comes the Marvin flatbed with my Gator on it! It was way past closing time for them. Tim recently called to see how I like it. They sent me a thank you letter along with a gift card - although I think he’s appalled at my idea of putting green and yellow pom pom trim around the canopy 💚💛💚🤣. He made a good point though: that will keep my husband from driving it! Needless to say, it’s an awesome machine. We ALWAYS have our service done there. Wouldn’t consider going anyplace else. DON’T buy your JD from the “big box store”!! It’s not the same. Marvin’s is the real deal. Shop Local!! Thank you, Tim, and thanks to your wife for getting that loan through in my name.
An awsome place to do business the staff is friendly and courteous. I recommend d h marvin & son very highly
After doing an exhaustive search for a new riding lawn mower we found a brand we liked. We then found DH Marvin and Son in Colchester CT. Not only did the sales team provide great information they walked us through an exceptional buying process. There is good reason that this company has flourished for 80 years in business.
When it came time to buy a new riding mower there was so many different options and brands the cost and the hidden costs all very confusing and frustrating .But at D.H Marvins the sales staff know there equipment and with a couple of questions like what are you looking to do and whats the size of the area and with that information and there knowledge of there machines they were able to figure out what mower was best for me and answered all my questions without feeling confused so when it came down to the pricing they lay it out on paper with no gimmicks or hidden costs . I couldnt be any more happier with my decision of purchasing my new John Deere tractor and would suggest anyone to stop in and check out the equipment talk to a sales staff and ask questions and be amazed on what they have to offer .
A great place for all your tractor supply needs. Very helpful assistance with a JD hydraulic issue
Very helpful and knowledgeable staff.
Thank you Tim for being so patient with us in our purchase of our 1025r with hla 1500 you were amazing in every way possible ! Taking the time showing me everything I needed to know,answering all my questions ! If anyone is in the market for any John Deere product I highly recommend DH MARVINE INC1
Went here last week and got a John Deere zero turn and the staff was incredible. I was in and out of there in 35 min, they were very knowledgeable... I told them what I was looking for as far as features and what I was planning on doing and they put me in the perfect machine and on sale at a unbeatable price. Delivery came early and even the driver was cool cracking jokes, plus hooked up the entire family with John Deere hats. Def glad I chose to come here and will get all my future business going forward.
Lived in town for 30+ years, and this was the 1st time I purchased from them. Also 1st time John Deere owner. Years ago bought cars and service with Marvins Toyota ( miss them); and had the same great experience with DH Marvin. Tim Marvin was a terrific, knowledgeable person from sale to delivery of my new X370 with the snowblower attachment. Looking forward to many years of service from this business.
Very helpful. Helped determine tractor I would need for the yard. Directed me to the online store. Tractor came in ahead of schedule. Delivery set up was easy. Curtis was great to work with. Went over everything I would need to know. Friendly and helpful through whole process. Great purchase. Will use them again. Bought X330. Came in handy after Tropical Storm Isais - clearing debri and trees
Top notch business. Tim delivered the tractor to my house on time. He went over the operation of the whole tractor. He also said if I needed any questions asked feel free to call them.
Very nice group of people. Dennis took my machine in and got it back in a timely manner. Its running great. They went over the entire machine and repaired a few things I didnt even know needed attention. Great job! Glad I chose D H MARVIN. Mr N
Great place to get your equipment serviced.
Went to the big box orange store as we are in Mystic. They had been offering the E120 (mistakenly) for $100 under cost.I really wanted to purchase my machine from DH and so glad I decided to do so. I called Matt, and he made my purchase effortless over the phone. He delivered it as promised within a week. He took the time to review and answer any questionsI had abot the unit.Cant wait to buy accessories.Buy from D H !
DH Marvin is a top notch well run family business. I bought a 2025R and couldn’t be happier. Tim Marvin delivered the machine to my house. He spent all the time I needed for a complete demo on how to operate. Buy your John Deere here. 5 stars. Thank you.
Excellent sales experience working with Matt. No haggling whatsoever. Got a X350 48 with Powerblow, Mulching Kit and Brush Guard matching all off the offers at J.D. plus an additional discount, free delivery and setup which came to $1000 less then what the closest dealer to me was offering. The closest dealer then offered to match - but why would I. I appreciate a no B.S sales approach that offered me the best deal and wanted my business. I also like the fact that they will travel to me to do service for same amount my local dealer will charge to pick up and drop off. So I will stick with these guys. Matt also took the time to go over everything with me once delivered. Thanks again!
The Parts dept is terrible. they will tell you they have a part without checking than you get there and they tell you they dont have it,
After going to 2 other places i finally got the lawn mower tire i needed from DH Marvin & son. They were very helpful and i received fast service.. I would def recommend them!
Just purchased a new x330 lawn tractor, Matt was an excellent salesman. On delivery Matt went over every aspect of maintenance and operation of the tractor and the tow behind dethatcher/aerator with me. Rare to find such excellent customer service and no pressure sales - DH Marvin has my outdoor equipment business for life, even though I have competitors of theirs much closer to my home. I am very happy with the quality and performance of the machine, reduced my mowing time from 1.5 hours to 45 minutes. Impressed with the mulching kit and the quality of the cut. Easy for my wife to operate as well.One year update... tractor is running well and our lawn looks better than it has in years thanks to tow behind dethatcher and aerator I used in the fall. Very happy with this purchase, annual maintenance was super easy on the tractor.
I have been a customer for close to 20 years, and DH Marvin is the best. Im on my second lawn tractor from them. Was having an issue and spoke to Dennis on the phone. He gave me 3 possible solutions, one that I could fix myself and 2 others that I probably would have to bring my machine into the shop. I tried his first suggestion and it fixed my problem. Thanks Dennis. :)
Great experience by Matt from start to delivery. The process was smooth, the delivery was quicker than I expected. Highly recommend this companuy.
Excellent support in selection of a compact l tractor. Matt (our salesman) went over features and reviewed models in patient detail to help us with our purchase. Then on delivery he spent several hours going over all the equipment again, demonstrating and putting us thru hands on trials. Probably the BEST service we have ever received from a dealer of any kind. Would definitely recommend and use again.
Incredible inventory, very helpful staff.
Purchased my John Deere P10 utility cart from these guys and was very satisfied with the help and transaction. My salesperson was very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly.While waiting for my utility cart, I noticed not just a large line of John Deere products but also, Husqvarna as well. Both of these are tools I use quite often at home.From what I see, this John Deere dealership is set up to service many brands. Then I remembered, that the great uncle to those at DH Marvins & Sons was also the uncle I use to by and service my Toyotas from many years ago who owned Marvins Toyota.Here, customer service was also outstanding and the job was always done right the first time. If this is a family tradition then I am proud to be a part of once again.
Very impressed with this business. excellent communication, and quick work. Highly recommend.
DH Marvin & Son is a prime example of why I bought my new John Deere lawn tractor from a local dealer, rather, than a big box store. Curtis is an exceptional gentleman, representative and highly knowledgeable on all of the products available. He made sure to answer any questions I had and made the buying experience a pleasure. Then, when Curtis delivered my tractor, it only got better. He went over the entire tractor, top to bottom, to make sure I knew as much about the tractor, as he did. Customer service is not something you should ever have to worry about and with DH Marvin (and Curtis) you wont have to.
Great People! They always go over and above my expectations!
I recently replaced my old tractor with a new one from Marvins. I worked with Tim Marvin who was extremely helpful and answered all of our questions. It was definitely a great buying experience. Thanks again.
We had very pleasant buying experience at the D H Marvin dealership. We would most certainly recommend them to any of our friends. Curtis is very knowledgeable and a pleasure to deal with.
The staff is always helpful. Definitely, the place to go for all your John Deere needs. They always carry a variety of other top brands for farm and yard equipment.
I got a used lawn mower, snow blower, leaf blower and a trimmer here. Wow, they might as well be new!! I had a great customer service experience. I would recommend anyone go here. The staff is knowledgeable and I couldn’t be happier. Keep up the good work guys!
Bad customer service. I scheduled a typical spring maintenance service 3.5 weeks ago. They told me the it will take roughly a week to pick up the John Deere. And another week to get it done. When I called again 1.5 weeks later they told me it will be picked up in 3 days. They had the tractor for another 1.5 weeks. And when I called today they are still unable to tell me when they will deliver it. Unacceptable. Bad business overall. If it takes them this long to do a maintenance and deliver and they are always late then maybe they should take on less business so they are able to keep up with it. Not to mention that it is very expensive . With the price of service, change of a tire, spindles, shield, blades, battery and delivery is almost $800. Stay away from them. Youll find a much better customer service out there for that sum of money.
Prior to stopping by D.H. Marvin & Son, Inc., my bride and I looked at Kabota, Kioti and Ford tractors.What sold us on the John Deere 1025 was our salesman Matt. His knowledge of the 1025 and his sincere, honest and trustworthy personality is what sold us on doing business with D.H. Marvin!!Matt delivered our new tractor and snowblower attachment and spent a considerable amount of time explaining all of the operational features of the tractor and making sure that we understood everything he explained. Matt further told us if we have any question on any operation to please call him ASAP!In closing we are so, so glad that we met Matt and bought the John Deere!!I have already recommended D. H. Marvin to two interested friends.
Very helpful, I was reluctant to write the review until we used our Gator in the snow and it works better than promised, top notch service and parts Depts.. We keep using them to purchase our implements and equipment,
Brought a deck in asking for it to be leveled. Talked to a desk women and a mechanic (mechanic doesnt remember a conversations). Wasted my time, was informed I needed all new parts (scam). Cause after a short conversation it was well you dont need to replace that now. Parts got damaged, with the excuse of small thing happen. I have to still assemble parts of the deck cause they didnt put it back together. Went for small repairs, left with a more broke deck. Cant recommend off this experience. I was asked to drive 30 min one way to see what was wrong, good thing I brought my truck. Record and take picture before you go anywhere, I dont know what else the damaged.
Great local business that knows there stuff, and understands customer service. Curtis is the best.
Awesome! Bought a 32 JD snow blower! Very Friendly and Helpful! Good Prices Too!
Wow...we just bought a Gator from MATTHEW McKerracher! What a patient, helpful, polite young man. It is on its way to the cranberry bog. Thank you, Matt!
Always great service and quality. All the staff members are knowledgeable and professional!
Always a pleasure to shop at D H Marvin. Excellent sales staff. Parts department personnel go the extra mile to get all you need.
The young man with longer hair behind the counter was arogant and rude. We had placed an order and paid with a different young man, then when we were there picking up we were told we owed more money. It was an error on the part of the sales person who took our order however the young man was not polite in explaining what happened. A women behind the counter seemed to notice that we were taken back by the attitude and stepped in to help. This is the second time the young man has assisted me and both times he had an attitude. We will be using a different John Deere dealer in the future.
I was interested in a X-500 without a mower for my business. Normally they are only sold with a mower, but Matt went out of his way to accommodate me and take the mower and credit me honestly when other dealers would not. Thanks
Great place for John Deere equipment. They know what theyre doing and are good to work with.
Great people..Dennis, Matt, and Tim will always give you honest advice. Theyre fair and honest folks.
Super friendly and knowledgeable. Its about a 35 minute drive from my house, but Id drive twice that for such a business that appreciates me so much as a customer, and is as Helpful as the folks at Marvins.
Great service and products
Great staff. Service dept rocks
Get your John Deere equipment here. Service as well. Knowledgeable. Professional. Helpful.

Curtis is a gentleman nice location clean tidy quite a lot of inventory
Matt was wonderful... He knew his product inside and out.... We bought a new tractor from him...
Helpful staff, special ordered the parts needed and had them in 2 days
Still the best place to get OEM parts!!
Great dealership knowledgeable staff
Verry helpful. Had all i need
I have a Deere snowblower that needed belts and a disc. The dealer in Groton, where purchased, is no longer a licensed dealer and had to order the parts.I found D H Marvin on line and took a ride. They had the belts I needed and the disc for the same price of just the belts at the other place, on the shelf! It was worth the trip.
Thanks for your help Tim! Great staff here, highly recommended for all of your yard care needs!
Great service and knowledge about all the equipment they sell and service.
Good people, they have or get what you need!
