Its one and two star share is 3 points above the typical installer in Tucson. Across Arizona, 126 of the 269 installers whose breakdown Google has published carry a higher share than this one.
The percentages are Google’s own arithmetic over every review it holds, not a sample we assembled. Separately we hold 279 review texts for this company, quoted below. Google publishes review ages rather than dates, so every date here is approximate.

I'm glad others have had a good experience, but the current staff has been completely unprofessional and incapable. Service technician wasted entire service call walking back and forth to his truck (I have video) and accomplished nothing, yet billed for service not rendered. Company has repeatedly failed to return calls from vendor (Enphase) to follow up on open case. Supervisor Jeff lied to my face and assured me he'd get to the bottom of it, then simply dropped the matter without follow-up. Repeated calls and emails to admin staff have gone unanswered. Seemingly just another sketchy Solar ou

Boy I sure wish there was a way to leave -5 stars! How do you guys sleep at night? You're going to try to sell solar to people which is a great idea and could save the world one day potentially but then again you turn around and make everything worse than ever how is that possible and how big are your egos and paychecks? you guys are absolute frauds I sure hope you make things right for people. People were promised that their bills would be significantly decreased or even just a little bit and so far none of that has happened and it's been nothing but a nightmare to deal with you. Still waitin

After much deliberation and thought, I am choosing to leave an honest review of my experience with this company. At this time, I would not recommend the Solar Store for completing your solar project. Background: We started the initial plans for our 2nd project with this company in the spring of 2023. Our first project with them had it's own hiccups but with the promise of them making it right we chose to trust and start another project. Final plans and agreement was signed in summer of 2023 and the Solar Store agreed this project would not be an issue to complete within the calendar year. I wr

Getting ahold of them and then getting a response is very difficult.

Nick arrived exactly on schedule and was very thorough and identified the problems I was having. He clearly explained and showed me the problems and the solutions. He got my system working correctly with clear paths forward.

Topics Google derives from the review text, with how often each appears. A frequent topic is not a good one: “price” turns up in praise and in complaints alike.
What the company says about itself
Taken from its own website. We have not checked any of it, and a sentence on a website is not evidence.
Free estimate
“your solar journey by requesting a free estimate from The Solar Store – give us a call…”
24/7 availability
“of annual staff training 24 hour emergency service Maintenance agreements available…”
Years in business
“With a robust team that boasts over 60 years of combined experience, we're not…”
Better Business Bureau
“receive the following benefits: An A+ Rating with the BBB, which we have been…”
Licensed
“price, and expected ROI. Step 3 Our licensed technicians will provide…”
Its website also mentions established and licence number, but not in a sentence we can quote cleanly.
Elsewhere
- It is also reviewed on Angi and Yelp. Worth reading before you sign anything: those are a different crowd, and the complaints that reach the Better Business Bureau rarely reach Google.
- It posts on TikTok, YouTube, X and Facebook. A page that stopped posting years ago tells you something a listing will not.

Ordered by how much we can tell you about each, which is not an order of quality. We do not know which of these is better and would not say if we did.
What we don't know
- The date above is the newest review we hold, which is not necessarily the newest that exists — we hold a large share of Google's reviews, not all of them.
- We do not verify licences, insurance or bonding. Nothing here has been checked against a state licensing board.
- We cannot tell you what an installation costs, and we hold nothing about the equipment they fit.
