In the past month, I've rented from CSI three times. The second and third rentals went perfectly smoothly.
The first was a fine business transaction, however, the Zacuto rig that was provided was either in desperate need of repair, or was just a piece of junk (either could be the case, but I suspect the former). The handheld grips could not be locked, and would become loose during normal operation. The tightening levers didn't ratchet, and couldn't be tightened beyond a certain point which was insufficient. And the screws which held the entire assembly together were either some strange size which was neither metric nor standard, or were stripped beyond usefulness. It was difficult to operate with grips which would suddenly become loose, sending the camera lurching around on my shoulder.
Usually I prefer to have an AC do checkout on all gear to make sure it operates, but this wasn't that kind of job, so in some ways, this is on our producers. Still, it would be good to know that y'all are testing out the builds to make sure the gear works.

Very honest and significantly more affordable than most equipment rental places in the Manhattan area. Highly recommend.

We are a non-profit organization and we received a donation discount from CSI rentals. They have been so helpful to us and very accommodating.
We got 2 lead panels from them and they were in great quality and in perfect condition. I would definitely recommend this place for film equipment. They are amazing!!!

This was my first time renting lighting equipment, and what I ordered online wasn't what I was expecting. But, the friendly staff gave me their recommendations and set me up with everything I needed.

The store experience was amazing. But once I got to the photo shoot, the equipment didn't work. I was sure that the equipment is tested before, I didn't know that I have to test the equipment before (which doesn't really make sense, I think it's kinda unprofessional) I didn't have much use of the equipment at the end and the day way a mess, I couldn't get the job done which resulted to a huge loss in my end.

We usually rent via Adorama Rental Company or KitSplit.
PROS: ARC doesn't allow combining of invoices if you make multiple rentals back-to-back (CSI helped us immensely on this!). ARC delivery was ten times (not exaggerating) what the delivery was from CSI, and the volume and weight of equipment we were quoted was smaller at ARC vs CSI. Very friendly customer service (in-person, by email, by phone) and simple process.
CONS: their website doesn't always have accurate on-hand counts for equipment, as we realized when we submitted an order for additional equipment, were sent an invoice, and were later told it wasn't available (after we called to check hours later).

I love renting from CSI rentals! They have a varied range of camera and lighting gear. Their online booking system is SO easy and user friendly even on weekends and after-hours. Great customer service and the equipment is in very good condition. I would highly recommend CSI rentals.

Terrible experience, when I came to photoshoot I realized that I was provided with 2 dead batteries so entire photoshoot screwed. Normally I was booking with adorama before and everything was smooth, due to Holidays Adorama was closed and I decided to try CSI rentals. I would not recommend. It is terrible attitude when customer gets dead batteries, time and money wasted. Would not recommend.
