They were able to fix my Epson projector when others couldn't. They did so in a timely manner, were honest with me about whether my projector was worth getting fixed or not, and they managed to fix it at a reasonable cost. Michael is very responsive. read more

Michael fixed my Harmon Kardon 330c receiver perfectly. Now it sounds like the vintage equipment it was meant to be. Honest and punctual.

I've never used Mike to fix anything (yet), but I truly appreciate his quick response to my inquiry about fixing my TV (I described the issue) and his transparency that it wasn't worth the cost to fix. That sort of honesty is so appreciated and I will for sure use him for other issues down the road. read more

He was kind and gave me an accurate diagnosis. It turned out to be difficult to fix, but at least I know exactly what the issue is. read more

Michael is a man of integrity with skills rarely seen in today's world of disposable electronics. I reached out to him to fix a problem with my TV -- a problem that was my doing -- to see if he could undo it. The TV was too valuable to toss, but it was virtually inoperable except for running a streamer and Blu Ray player through an HDMI port. I could not control the volume or receive any broadcast stations because the channel keys were inoperable, and the remote never worked due to what I believe is the previous owner's programming. Michael came to my home, inspected the TV, explored the circuitry and removed the control panel, thinking that replacing it could possibly resolve my problems with the remote control and the volume and channel buttons. Accessing the control panel was not an easy process and involved moving the 50-pound set to another room so he could take it apart on a safer surface than my hardwood floors. He removed the control panel and took it with him, ordered a new one and returned to my home a few weeks later with a new one. Long story short (or at least shorter): He was not able to fix the problem because the new control panel provided the same ersults. I believe no one could fix the problem at this point. But he did recommend a workaround that I could try: A TV stick that connects to my antenna and an HDMI port. I ordered one of these, and voila: Problem solved! I paid him a moderate fee for his time and trouble because I felt bad about the hours he spent with no resolution. You won't find many TV repairmen (or women) these days. It's a lost skill in this age of planned obsolescence, where electronics are discarded and upgraded once they malfunction. But if you do find a TV repairman, you won't find one with the patience, skills and integrity of Michael unless he is the one you hire -- and I highly recommend you do. If Michael can't fix it, nobody can! read more

Really great service. I first met with Michael to have a projector repaired. He quoted me a reasonable price for the job. He also kept me in the loop about the projector and when I had some issues with the picture he even came to my place to review the problem. When it was determined that it would be more expensive to fix the projector than the projector was worth, Michael sold me a comparable if not better projector for a great price. He is the consummate professional and I won't hesitate to visit him again for any multimedia repairs! Many thanks, Michael! read more

Michale was amazing and fixed my Sony TV. He was incredibly knowledgeable and provided clear guidance on what was possible given the state of the TV. He outlined the risks of attempting repair and cost to try. He picked up the TV, carefully transported back for diagnostics, and repaired it! He also dropped it back in perfect condition. Really appreciate he saved my Sony TV from the dump. The end price was significantly cheaper than buying a top end OLED TV. I highly recommend going with A-Plus if you need eletronics repair. read more

I can see why A-Plus Electronics & Engineering gets 5 star ratings from customers. I got a response literally within a few minutes. Dennis was professional, very customer friendly and provided expert advice. Since I had previously tried Sony's advice for restoring power with no response from my Sony Bravia XBR, Dennis advised it would not be worth the cost to troubleshoot and repair given it was over 10 years old (which is what I anticipated). He never tried to upsell but instead just gave honest feedback. He is the first one I would contact if I ever have a problem with my TVs' in the future. read more

This is the best repair company I have ever worked with. Michael was super responsive to my texts and gave me regular updates in regards to the Epson projector repair. I had previously wasted money sending it to southern CA to an authorized Epson repair, but they were less than helpful. Michael and his team were able to find the part, and make the repair with a reasonable rate so that I wouldn't have to purchase a new one. This company is exceptional, honest, and efficient. read more

Excellent, prompt, and incredibly friendly service. Michael helped to diagnose a problem with an old television that came with a newly purchased home, explained why repairs would not be cost-effective, recommended a new television, and helped to mount it on an existing bracket that was somewhat complicated. His prices were incredibly reasonable, and would recommend this company to anyone. read more

Michael was kind and thorough. He helped me work through a solution without looking for personal gain, and was responsive every step of the way. I am very grateful for his honest and caring attitude. read more

I did not actually use Michael's service, but wanted to give him a shout out. He could have taken advantage of me but he didn't. He gave me advice on what to do which is worth its weight in gold when provided by an expert, which he clearly is. He spent about 30 minutes with me. Back and forth on text and a few phone calls to tell me 1. That it would cost more to repair than to buy new. 2. Go back to the manufacturer to discuss a warranty claim and the language I could use 3. A recommendation on brands and types of TVs to purchase as I begin the possible daunting task of buying a TV. Michael: thanks for reminding me there are honest business people out there that really care about their reputation and what they do! I will come back to you in the future. read more

A-Plus Electronics & Engineering - TV with Panel Issue. - Electronics Repair Near Me - San Francisco, California

I had an older canon point and shoot camera that was no longer turning on. I contacted a couple of stores to see if they were able to help repair the camera but this was the only one that was willing to look at it. Michael was very responsive and told me they would take a look at it. After I dropped it off, he got back to me the next day. While he and his team were not able to fix the camera, he was able to explain why and was very nice about the whole situation. He also did not charge me anything. If I have any issues with electronics in the future I would definitely come back! read more

Kid came by to replace the panel. Didn't see anything wrong with it when they did the diagnosis test, even though i told him the issue only occurs when there's a black screen. Said all tvs do this. Which is not true, because none of my other tvs i've had had had this issue. I asked if he could replace the panel anyway. He said no. Wasted my time completely. DON'T GO HERE! read more

The world needs more business like this! I called them on Friday for a problem a Samsung TV. Talked on the phone to Michael, described the problem, and he came up with a plan. He'd come on Sunday, if he could fix the set at the house he would, and if not he'd leave a loaner set, take the TV back to his shop, and bring again when it was fixed. Yes, please. Sunday rolls around, Michael shows up and fixes the TV. That easy. In a world of marginally qualified repairmen who hide behind faceless dispatch centers A-Plus was a breath of fresh air. Most recommended. read more

Phenomenal experience with Michael! Our far-too-expensive TV suddenly decided to stop working... There were a few lines on the screen, then cloudiness, then BAM. Nothing. I'll tell you what... it is surprising - nay, shocking - how quickly our household plunged into fits of sadness and boredom. Perfect storm of interrupted binge-watching and on-going football season. Michael replied quickly and performed a solid diagnostic. His opinion was that a very expensive part of the TV had broken. Not surprising, as that's what everyone on the Internet said we should expect, but this was clearly outside the bounds of our household budget. And that's when he reminded me... did you buy the TV on a credit card with automatic extended warranty? He was right! What a pivotal suggestion! He helped me fill out the paperwork with all the documentation the credit card company needed and, a few weeks later, I have a TV again! In time for football playoffs. Clutch. read more

Michael went above and beyond to advise on what I should do when my TV got the black screen of death. After a productive phone call, he sent a quote over within 24hrs. I ended up buying a new TV, but sincerely appreciate Michael's expertise and will definitely conduct business with A-Plus on all of my electronics needs moving forward. Thank you, A-Plus! read more

Late and rude for TV repair. Technician arrived over 2 hours past the appointment window. I called the home office several times to find out what was going on and no answer. Once he arrived, he requested that he needed more room. I asked him "how much room do you need?" He yelled "I AM NOT WORKING ON THE FLOOR!". I told him that I wasn't forcing him to work on the floor and wanted to know if he needed more room to work or if he needed the TV to be in an elevated position. He wanted it to be elevated. Once I figured that out, I went ahead and cleared the sofa. Incredibly rude guy and poor communicator. Also, the whole experience didn't feel COVID safe. He did have a mask, but came in without shoe coverings and put his hands over some of my other furniture. read more

Michael was fantastic. I actually didn't get my TV repaired by him, but he explained that the LED strip on my Sony would be more to repair than just getting a TV. He recommended brands that are easier to repair (Samsung or LG), as a repair shop owner goes, and also took my old tv off my hands to be recycled. He answered my calls right away, was always professional and personable. I will going to him for any future repairs and I would recommend going to him. read more

Wanted to give a shout out to Michael for his time and honesty. Instead of repairing something that most likely wont come back to its normal form with my Vizio which I probably won't buy ever again, he provided a honest opinion regarding the issue at hand and was super helpful, simple amazing service. Service is everything and Michael is definitely an top notch! read more

Michael is great! He was super-helpful in diagnosing the problem with my TV, and he helped us take care of the paperwork. Definitely get in touch with him for any electronics issues! read more

I have a vintage 1958 tube Philco TV that needed repair. It is nearly impossible to find a certified technician, that is not only familiar with these old TV sets, but also who has an extensive experience in their repair, even in the San Francisco Bay Area. Michael and his team were able to identify the problems, order the necessary tubes and outdated electronic parts, mainly from Europe, where they are still available, and appropriately service the TV. Michael explained from the outset that it would take some time as the parts needed to be ordered from overseas distributors. It was definitely worth the wait, as the final result was really impressive! The TV set works better than ever. I would unreservedly recommend A+ electronics for any TV repair job. read more

I had a second chance to use A-Plus to try to repair a flat screen tv that went kaput just after the warranty period. Michael was responsive and got me going on scheduling when they could see me, assessing things, and also providing me the documentation necessary to file for extended warranty from a credit card company. I did have to pay for his time to assess the repair, which was fair, but more than got it back (and some) with the nice refund to my credit card after submitting his detailed repair estimate. I only wish they had superb, responsive, knowledgeable, and truly helpful places like this where my mom lives (in another state). read more

Helped me troubleshoot a Samsung tv that was not turning on (standby light on, blinks when turned on, but no picture). Super nice guy, very helpful, thoughtful, gives good advice, has the best interest of the customer in mind. I will use A+ in the future for any electronics repairs. Thank you Michael! Btw - after replacing the power, main, and t-con boards, it ended up being the t-con board. read more

Triple A+. Michael was amazing from the time he answered the phone (while on vacation in Hawaii) until our repaired 3-D plasma TV was delivered back to our house. Honesty, kindness are rare qualities in service industries especially during Covid. Did not overpromise but set my expectations realistically as TV technology changes so quickly. Highly recommended!! read more

This is an unusual operation where the "shop" proprietor farms out work to an independent repair technician. A-Plus really is Michael himself, and he couldn't have been more accommodating nor generous in his dealings with me. However, since he doesn't perform the work himself, all the best intentions amount to little if the work isn't done correctly. With two different visits to their technician, A-Plus still wasn't able to repair my slightly cranky stereo receiver nor even to replicate the problem. I took it elsewhere and got it diagnosed and fixed immediately. Michael is great, but an attentive attitude alone won't repair a faulty device. read more

Nightmare experience from beginning to end. Made an appointment with Michael which I clearly wrote in my messages Tuesday the 16th and he said yes and agreed to. Made my boyfriend drive our 65inch tv all the way across the city to Cabrillo street. My bf shows up and calls Michael to find out.... he's not there due to personal emergency and to come back in 2-3 hours. Yes, things happen and I'm sorry he had an emergency but thats no excuse you can't call or text to cancel. OKAY FINE, let's try to resolve the issue... I call Michael to see if there's any way he can drop off the tv since he was already in the area. Michael said he'll be back later but to make a phone call and see if he can help. After getting his colleague or whoever on the phone, Carmen informs me that nobody would be able to help me today. She tells me they made a mistake, never had my appointment in the book. They meant next Tuesday 3/23. Unfortunately a plus is listed as one of the few service providers who partner with samsung otherwise I would've never had to deal with this. AVOID AT ALL COSTS- unless you're looking to be tossed around by people who don't communicate with each other and their sole purpose is to waste your time. read more

A-Plus Electronics & Engineering - Electronics Repair Near Me - San Francisco, California

Our Samsung 75inch flatscreen went dead and I found A+ on the Samsung website. Michael diagnosed that we needed a new LED panel and advised us to ask Samsung to cover this even though the TV was over 3 yrs old. Samsung agreed to replace the LED panel but insisted on having another company do the repair, even though we asked for A+. The other company fixed the LED panel but left our huge flatscreen in the garage since the screws to install it were missing. We went back to Michael who special ordered the screws and came to our house 4x with an assistant just to get the TV installed. All this for a total of $125! Over and above expected service! read more

A-Plus did a fantastic job picking up my TV, finding the root cause, and repairing it in a timely manner. Edit: Browser did a poor job with the star system. Updated to 5 stars after technical difficulties read more

The owner, Michael went above and beyond in seeking to repair our 7 year old 55" Sony flatscreen, even going so far as lending us an LG 65" to tied us over while he researched the problem. If it turns out that our TV has finally conked out, Michael has offered to not only advise us on what would be the best replacement but also install it! His prices are remarkably reasonable for all the work he's put in. We highly recommend him and his firm to get the job expertly done! read more

i had to wait for the right time to pay for the repairs i needed. Michael was suppportive and waited for me to get back to him. he did excellent bench work on my tube headphone amp. i needed a audio output replaced so my headphones had both channels again. i met with him and gave him the amp, it was ready the next day. just good luck. he is local and easy to get to. i recommend A Plus read more

TV died during Covid quarantine... that's a bad confluence of events :) Moreover, the TV - a Samsung 4k Curve was only like 4.5 years old, so the whole thing was a major bummer.... one day the TV simply refused to turn on. After Googling around and trying some home remedies, I found a listing for A-Plus Electronics online (there are surprisingly few authorized Samsung repair places in the SF area). On the first call Michael was very clear with what he thought the issue may be and how he might go about the repairs. He was very accommodating, provided frequent updates and was willing to jump through a few hoops to find the parts and try some things to drive the issue to resolution. The cost was very reasonable and included parts. Got the TV back within a week or so and the display quality looks better than new. Great service and highly recommend! Thank you Michael. read more

Mike was amazing! At first I thought he was a hard guy to catch, availability wise, but after the parts arrived for the tv, it was all good! Found his contact number through Samsung support as one of the official tech services in SF, and within a few weeks, i sent my tv and waited for a week for the other parts to come from samsung and he delivered the tv after! read more

This guy is legit. When my LG OLED TV started having intermittent issues, I brought it to Michael at A+ for troubleshooting. He was very transparent with me and told me that he may not be able to fix it, but that we could try replacing the power PCB board. He ordered the original replacement parts from the manufacturer, installed them in my TV, and tested it to confirm there were no problems. So glad I saved myself $1000+ on the cost of a new TV by not having to replace it! Michael's prices are reasonable, and overall, he's a really trustworthy guy. I definitely recommend consulting with him if you have a problem with your electronics to see if he can help! read more

Michael is awesome! Our 65" LG OLED TV suddenly stopped working and wouldn't even turn on. We reached out to A-Plus and connected with Michael. He diagnosed the problem, ordered parts right away and fixed the TV and it's working perfectly. He is very pleasant and easy to work with and is super responsive. The cost to fix it was very reasonable as well. Overall we're so happy with A-Plus' service, glad we didn't have to change our TV. Thanks Michael! read more

Great service -- responsive and honest. Michael took my call, listened to me describe my TV's behavior, and quickly diagnosed the problem as unrepairable. Getting to talk to an expert is so valuable. The next time anything breaks, I'm calling these folks first. read more

Excellent service, with a smile. These guys know what they're doing. They are pleasant and very adherent to taking COVID precautions too.

Fast communication, quick quality craftsmanship and a pleasure to work with. They fixed my tube amplifier after it had a short on the circuit. Really impressed with their work and don't hesitate to contact these guys for similar work. Hard to find a good tube tech. Highly recommended! read more

Michael was super helpful in helping me diagnose and repair my flat screen TV. He is super polite, responsive and professional - he knows his stuff. Highly recommend! read more

Michael has been amazing. Nothing but professional and efficient. He showed me the ropes from trying to utilize my credit card (unfortunately I didn't buy my tv from a major credit card for Visa) for the extended warranty and how I can get Samsung to help me with a one time extended warranty for part. He got the parts from Samsung and fixed it within a day. I would give him more stars if possible! read more
