I’m sorry for posting this here. There isn’t a solar panel instance, nor did I see anything for electricians. I know there’s been a lot of gripe with certain solar companies (solgen being in litigation, and others) but I didn’t hear much about freedom forever, since they’re new to Seattle area where I’m doing this. Reddit seems to hate this company. But the price seems alright. I’m paying $22k for 7.4kw but getting it down to 15k after the state stipend. Less than $3 a watt which I’m guessing is really good. I’m planning to pay it off in 2 or 3 years. Not the full 25 which will cost me so much more. Can anyone point me in the right direction and if I’m making the right decision?

    The price seems ok. There’s more to consider than price though. Do people dislike them because of the quality of their work?

      I mean not really. Most of what everyone said is that they didn’t install what they quoted, or that they had trouble with customer support, tried suing or something like that. I don’t expect litigation. I got them to give me their quote and scope, so I know what they promised is what’s going in.

        If they don’t install what was quoted, you might not know until this are installed. That could make things difficult.

        I’ll add that is around the size of my system and less than I paid. I do have microinverters however. So that could explain some cost difference.

          Then they can pay to remove it. Violation of contract. I didn’t agree to equivalent panels. I agreed to what they quoted and what I paid for.

          Hmm. Did you take out a loan? I’m doing this with a 25 year loan. It’s a little pricy to do that
