Went in on Monday needing a new lawn tractor. Celeste got me squared away right away. Gave me all the details and everything on the perfect mower. She told me it would be delivered on that Friday which would be perfect. On Wednesday she texted me and said that it could be delivered on Wednesday and at 1pm on Wednesday it showed up. Very professional, helpful, and I will buy equipment from Celeste and James River Equipment in Newton again.
Wonderful experience! The staff are very inviting and knowledgeable. No pressure buying. This was the reason I decided to purchase from this establishment. I will definitely be a return customer!! Shout out to Celeste Benfield for explaining the details, finishing the paperwork and making the delivery a breeze. Thank You!
Bought my mower at James River after my son had purchased one and was very satisfied with his experience. Celeste was my sales person who did a great job locating and delivering my mower. Would highly recommend to others.
Great experience! Celeste was extremely helpful in finding the right product to meet my needs. I could not be happier. I received my tractor the next day, and I was able to do all the work I had planned within a few hours. Celeste really went above and beyond to select exactly what I needed. I will definitely be back to see her if I want anything more! Thanks, Celeste!
James River has been nothing but an great experience from the time i called shopping for my 5 series ZeroTurn; all the way through delivery. I personally dealt with Celeste the whole time and she was nothing but phenomenal and made my purchase a breeze from start to finish and never made me feel like they were out just trying to make a sale! I would highly recommend James River in Newton for any of ya JD needs!!!
Purchased my z915 here very pleased with it, great mower for the price. Sales associate celeste made my 1st john deere purchase smooth and easy. Would recommend James River equipment.
Friendly knowledgeable staff. Great products.
Friendly staff, very helpful. Its John Deere so its like owning a Harley, everything is more expensive. But they are good tractors we have 3 and we really like them.
Had my riding lawn mower picked up for regular maintenance. Discovered they had missed a step in the maintenance that made the mower unusable. Simple oversight. Important thing is I called to inform them, they picked up the mower, corrected the issue and had it back to me the next day ready to go. It’s regrettable the error happened but they made it right exactly the way I would expect. Excellent customer service.
I had never driven let alone purchased a John Deere tractor. Celeste helped me match a tractor to what I was looking to accomplish. A most gracious and detailed sales expert. Took about 10 minutes to finance and the tractor was delivered the next day!Thanks Celeste!
I bought a lawnmower at Newton and the sales lady...Celeste Benfield found it for me. They didnt have one there so she called around until she found me one. Thank u so much Celeste!.

I had service done on my 2025r. Celeste was fantastic to work with. She scheduled me promptly and the work was completed quickly. Great service department and a great tractor dealer.
I recently purchased a John Deere riding mower from the James River Equipment location in Newton, NC. I worked with Celeste Benfield to determine which mower would work best for my needs and budget. With Ms Benfields extensive knowledge of the John Deere product line, she was able to determine which mower would best meet my needs, in this case, the X350. Although there were no X350s in stock, Ms Benfield was able to locate one, have it shipped to Newton, and have a MulchControl installed within less time than I had expected. Throughout the transaction,Ms Benfield provided excellent, personable customer service. She answered all questions, explained and demonstrated the mower operation, and kept me informed on when the mower would be delivered. I have been very satisfied with my X350 and with the professionalism and courtesy of Celeste Benfield. I strongly recommend James River Equipment and Celeste Benfield to anyone interested in buying a John Deere product.
I called this John Deere location; known as James River Equipment around 4:30 after getting off work and told them I was looking for a tube to go in my lawnmower tire. Spoke with Bill in parts and provided him with my mower model and tire parameters so he could look up the appropriate tube in their system. Bill was very professional, courteous, informative, and helpful with getting me the correct tube. I was running a bit behind getting to their location before they closed at 5:30 so I called back up to the store and asked if I arrived about 5:35-5:40 would anyone still be there so I could pick the item up. Bill went above and beyond and said hed still be there waiting for me to arrive and asked what I was driving so he could keep an eye out for me to arrive. I would highly recommend this company to anyone needing mower/tractor/law supplies! Thanks again for being an amazing employee and person Bill!
Recently bought my John Deere X750. Tim Conn did an excellent job of helping me choose the right tractor for my needs. Super friendly and answered all of my questions. Excellent experience and look forward to doing business with JRE and Tim in the future. I would recommend them to anyone.
I just bought a z530m today after talking with Celeste Benfield for two days asking her questions about the differences in the different mowers. She helped me decide what was best for my needs . She was very professional and made my experience, with James River, a wonderful one. She is a great asset for your company!!!! I would buy equipment through her 100 more times. She treats people like family!!
I live in Wake Forest and my JD in Vale had problems that I had put off for a couple years. When in town, I stopped by James River and met with Celeste and explained my situation. She assured me she could help, and made arrangements to pick up my tractor. Once the problem was diagnosed, Celeste kept me updated on the cost and timeframe for the repairs. She also offered me options to save money, and even had my tractor cleaned and delivered back to the farm. Thanks Celeste, great customer service that one expects from John Deere and James River.
Hit a stump pretty badly, did some serious damage. Went in and talked to Celeste who crunched numbers for me. Fair price for the damage done. Celeste maintained contact with me, keeping me informed of progress start to finish. Highly recommended with a great attitude.
Celeste is very friendly and takes care of customers. James Rivers always takes care of me and is the best place to buy a tractor and equipment! They are always easy to deal with. Thanks, Samuel
Had an issue with my Z950M last night. I called Mike Bowman who is the regional manager. He arranged for me to have it in Newton at 8. Dropped it off with Celeste Benfield and they had me ready by 9. Mike and celeste really care about their customers. I highly recommend James River Equipment. I am a customer for life!!!
I took my push lawn mower to James River Equipment in Newton, NC to have my cable assembly repaired. The customer service and the work done on my lawn mower was great. Celeste Benfield done a great job helping me with my lawn mower when I first took it there to be repair. She kept me update about the repairs that had to be done on my lawn mower and how much it was going to cost. This was my first time having repairs done at John River Equipment and I will be going back. Thank you very much Celeste Benfield for making my visit a great one.
Have been purchasing parts for 2 ancient JD lawnmowers from JRE. I so much appreciate customer service Celestes warm courtesy and efficiency. The parts guys are very helpful in determining what parts I need. Highly recommend JRE.
James River Equipment in Newton, NC. Is absolutely the best. Celeste makes getting my yearly mower service easy. They are very through and addresses every problem I have.
I needed a tractor and it was kind of last minute. Tim Conn done a fantastic job in helping make it happen. Even with low inventory Tim went to work and was able to locate the tractor I was looking for. He kept me updated with the shipping and made the buying experience a breeze. I highly recommend talking to Tim at James River Equipment you will not be disappointed!!!!

Great place people very friendly and helpful...Tim Conn helped me get what I needed and answered all my questions.
Recently purchased a John Deere 2020 X758 lawn tractor from James River equipment in Newton. We had an outstanding sales experience with Tim Cann our sales person. He was consistently professional, patient, kind, answered all of our questions which made the entire purchasing process seamless. Tim delivered on everything we asked for. Without question I would highly recommend James River of Newton, NC based on our sales experience with Tim Cann from the point of purchase to delivery. Thank you Tim Cann and James River Equipment of Newton.
We bought our tractor from them last year. Great Dealership and Tim Cann was fantastic!!! This was our first tractor and he helped us every step of the way. They really took their time to explain the features of the tractor and how to operate. We needed some attachments and went there today another great experience. We would not consider shopping any where else.
Hats off to Brandon and the team at James River equipment in Newton. He replaced my engine (warranty issue) and tractor runs great. Appreciate his honest evaluation and great mechanical work. Tractor came back to me clean and in top running shape. Nice branch to work with.
Very helpful to get what I needed
I’m not sure what the first reviewer was upset about. But it seems he gets his skivvies in a wad over a good dealOur experience was top notch. We were actually their first tractor customer. Tim Conn, the store manager talked to us in depth prior to their opening. We went in as soon as we could and picked up a little 1025R with many implements. Brandon, the mechanic is an exceptionally pleasant and knowledgeable young man. Larry and Shelton have been more than helpful in getting what I needed. I’m short, with back issues, the original seat didn’t work for me. Between the guys and all their work with me, I’m enjoying the heck out of my little Deere. JRE Newton is my new JD home! I highly recommend shopping with them.
Wesley is such a great dude, he will sit down and try and get to know you and your family. I have bought two things from James River and Wesley is my go to guy for everything John Deere at James River because he will give you the best deal possible, Shelton in parts is a cool dude too. If your thinking about a new John Deere and you want to be treated like family James River is the place.
Brought in a new lawn Moore Because it had a oil leak used it 4 times. When we came to pick it up was told it Had a flat tire that the tube had a hole in it. They said they are not responsible for Repair it even though it was fine when we brought it in . Very bad customer service.
Much needed repair and a short turn around time. Celeste made it happen.
Was a great buying experience. Tim Conn did a great job at meeting our needs. Would highly recommend James River in Newton NC.
Tim was great to work with, as he took the time to show me different machines and explain the options. The sales transaction was simple, and delivery was prompt by Shelton who was most professional.Clearly this is a great dealer to do business with in the Newton area.
