I've delayed writing this review for a few months just to make sure the fix that was provided to my laptop really worked. It did it was such a great improvement! What had happened was that I had bought a new laptop from LG (~9 months ago) and its' performance was just so weirdly slow from the time I brought it home. In particular, the proxy setting just would not turn off no matter how many times I disabled it. Plus, the PC performance was horrifically slow. Not a good sign and I did a lot of malware scans with no luck on finding any issue. Finally, I got fed up and, after a bit of research, I found Allstate. The guy at the repair shop was super nice and attentive to my observations. The end result was excellent - all the issues were fixed (proxy and computer speed) and my PC is as it should be - fast and efficient and it has been 3 months of excellent performance. Repair price was okay too. Total recommend. read more

I thot my laptop was toast. Dell couldn't get parts to repair it . John had what was needed. Replaced my hard drive, upgraded me to latest versions, helped me reload files, and saved me having to replace it. Love the calm, kind approach to everything he did. Customer for life! 100% recommend. read more

Amazing place to come get your Custom PC fixed! They make sure your computer is back and running like new again. Prices are the best here.

This is a great computer repair shop. It is conveniently located next to a Ralph's and one of the best breakfast burrito spots in the city. This shop is open every day but Sunday, the staff is ultra competent, they offer more services and at a better price than what you would get at a best buy and over paid for a similar service. Also I'm kind of a repeat customer, so I know they don't overcharge, and you are going to get your computer fixed well before you have to meet whatever deadline you have to meet or if you just don't want to wait a week to have someone replace a missing button om your computer. read more

Super helpful, knowledgeable, fair, didn't recommend needless work. Totally recommend.

John is amazing. He's professional, nice, knowledgeable, afforadable and goes above and beyond to ensure customer satisfaction. He's the only person I will take my computers to, which I've been doing for 2 years now. Best in L.A. and I've been here for 20 years. read more

Best computer repair shop I've used. I've gone to them multiple times for battery replacements, virus removal, and even when my computer was hacked. Every experience has been great. They're knowledgeable, efficient, and explain things in a way that actually makes sense. I trust them completely and highly recommend. read more

I called in a panic because I recently built a brand new PC, but I needed windows downloaded on a USB bootable drive. John came to the rescue and did it on the house. He even showed me how to take care of it step by step. Excellent service and was very knowledgeable. Thanks again John! Much appreciated! read more

Excellent service. I went for a USB MacOs bootable for my Mac and he had it ready just for me to pick up with no charge. Definitely someone to trust your Apple devices with. read more

We desperately needed to upgrade our kids gaming computer and found John and Allstates Computers here on Yelp. We needed to upgrade to a bigger SSD card on our Dell desktop/tower, so I called first to see if I could make an appointment. John was very friendly, no appointment necessary, just come over and drop it off. The building is actually really easy to find. Just north of LAX and the In-N-out on Sepulveda Blvd. Parking lot in the back on the CVS side with direct access to the building. The quote John gave us was very reasonable, and he had the computer done and ready for us by the next morning. Very very highly recommend John, and would absolutely come back for future computer issues. read more

My desktop PC died suddenly and unexplainably a few days ago. I've built several PCs before, so I attempted to troubleshoot the issue on my own; I tried swapping monitors, cables, hardware, you name it. I rummaged through message board after message board, hardware manual after hardware manual. Ultimately, I was unsuccessful and at a complete loss of what to do. In a panic, I found John at Allstates Computers. He told me to bring in my PC tower and he'd take a look. I swung by a few minutes later and he started troubleshooting right away! I think all-in-all, we spent about 45+ minutes troubleshooting and trying new things until we were able to successfully diagnose the problem. In the process, he taught me a few things and it was extremely evident from our interaction that he had advanced knowledge of computers and how to fix them. All the while, he was friendly, polite, and patient. Since I did not need any additional parts, nor did I need to leave the computer there overnight for additional work, I was expecting to only pay for the diagnostic labor... THIS WONDERFUL MAN WOULD NOT ACCEPT MY MONEY!! I tried to pay him and he refused. I tried to buy his lunch and he refused. He genuinely just wanted to help me, a complete stranger. He could tell how much effort I had put into trying to fix my machine before reaching out for his assistance and he could tell how flustered and panicked I was at the possibility of losing all my data (or having to buy a brand new computer). I was having a terrible day that day and John showed me just how kind and helpful people can be to one another. Not only was he exceptionally skilled and knowledgeable, but his heart is just as big and his customer service skills are A+. John and Allstates Computers have earned my business for the rest of my life. If I ever encounter any computer issues in the future, I will go to him and him alone. I have already recommended his services to several people and will continue to do so for as long as his shop is open. I cannot give a higher recommendation - easily 10/10. If you're on the fence at all, know that you can trust him and his expertise. read more

I requested service to fix an issue with my PC. It was not able to install drivers, programs, or updates. My PC would keep crashing, making solving the issue myself more frustrating. After days of troubleshooting the issue myself, I caved in and went to Yelp to seek professional help. Within minutes of posting my service request, John was one of the first techs to reach out. After reading the reviews for his business, I decided to give him a shot. John is quick to respond to inquiries and was able to fix my PC within a three days of dropping it off after requesting service. Granted, it was on a late Friday afternoon when I dropped of my PC. By Monday afternoon, I got a text stating that my PC was ready. After going to the shop to pick up my PC, John went over the causes of the issue and provided tips on what to do if the issue were to happen again. For $125, he diagnosed the issue (I believe the diagnosis is free), reset my BIOS, reinstalled the operating system and the necessary drivers, and even provided me with some software to monitor my PC. I know doing all that takes time, and with my specific issue, took a lot of troubleshootong. For the price he charged, I would say I got a pretty good deal. I would choose to work with John again for any future repair needs based on my first experience with him! read more

John did a great job repairing my Computer in no time. Price was remarkable great value would recommend his serve to anyone. read more

Found John at Allstates through Yelp and am happy I did. Immediately available. Knowledgeable. Good enough at what he does that he can easily explain it to an idiot like me. Quickly repaired both my desktop (mechanical) and laptop (programmatic) and also offer an efficient solution to my long term computer needs. I highly recommend Allstates. read more

Joe is a true professional who listens, understands, and truly goes above & beyond. His status updates & communication are impeccable and he fixed my Lenovo quicker than any other computer repair shop I've ever been to. A+++ will return if/when I have future computer issues. Go to Joe! read more

Walked in to have the files on my laptop transferred to an external hard drive before sending off for repairs under warranty. John gave me an estimate and said he'd call when it was ready but ended up needing to call for some codes to get in. Most of my files were already backed up in the cloud (1Drive), but John transferred what he could which is what I wanted confirmed as I was dealing with a blank/black screen. John had this done in 2 hours and did not charge me anything. Patient friendly, knowledgeable service for free. It's heart warming to know that honest small businesses do still exist. Thank you John for your integrity! Will recommend your business 1,000 times over. read more

Battery to my MacBook wasn't holding charge; John did a great job of directing me where to buy a replacement (and which one); he even allowed me to ship the battery to his store for ease. It was ready the next day, at the time as promised. Highly recommended read more

I looked up different places and this is the best choice I made. Very quick to respond and to fix my computer. Very reasonable price. I highly recommend John! read more

We brought my daughter's broken computer (she destroyed the screen) in for a fix on Friday. She is a Mechanical Engineering student and needs her computer for writing, 3D modelling, blah blah blah.. The fella quoted a fair rate, and told us it would be ready in a week. He had it for us on Monday. The reviews here are true. Allstates is a fair price and a hard hustle. I wish I had a spare computer laying around to upgrade at this shop. Excellent. A gen and credit to the Westchester community. read more

EXCELLENT SERVICE! HIGH INTEGRITY My dad has been coming here for awhile with various issues on both his PC and laptop and he has raved about the service. I decided to come with him on his visit this week to see for myself. My dad is in 94 years old and is hard of hearing so I decided to come with him when he brought his laptop in this week. Not only is the owner kind and patient, but he is such an expert he was quickly able to diagnose the problem (it was a software issue) Maybe we were there a total of 10 minutes. I can't say enough about how fabulous this place is. Great service, convenient location and free parking. read more

If I could give six stars I would! John was very honest , knowledgeable & extremely helpful with upgrading my 2020 iMac's failing fusion-drive into an SSD drive. Very fast turn-around along with best pricing!!! My iMac is now faster than a speeding bullet and can handle all my studio workflow like never before!! Thank you John!! read more

My laptop was unresponsive. Occasionally it would turn on and just when I needed to do something, it would go into hibernation. I called Allstates and he was extremely responsive. Asked me to bring the laptop in and he would try to help. I turned up 20 minutes later. He looked at my laptop and immediately knew what the problem was. Explained to me how to get around it. I volunteered to pay. He was very gracious about it and said there is never any charge for diagnostics. Next time I have a problem I will definitely go to Allstates. Also, easy to find and plenty of parking. read more

I went in fully expecting to hear that my laptop was not repairable, and to my surprise, John fixed my laptop within 15 minutes with no additional charge. He even stopped that annoying McAfee pop-up. He explained everything he was doing, so I felt comfortable and would recommend his services to anyone. read more

I'm not sure if I've reviewed this place yet. However; this guy is Honest, and very good at his craft.! He is greatly appreciated.!

I was having trouble charging my Apple MacBook Air and decided to get it checked out after work. Allstates Computers popped up on the the top of my Yelp search with quite a few great ratings. The location is very close to home. There is ample parking in the lot adjacent to Sepulveda Blvd. John greeted me and asked what was happening with my computer. He tested the power cable and ports. It would charge for a short period than stop. He tried another cable and still wouldn't charge. I had to leave the computer there overnight so he could run diagnostics. Before I left he even helped me with my iPhone battery issue. I just picked up my computer and it charges. John cleaned the ports and connectors. I highly recommend Allstates Computers for all of your Apple Mac and iPhone needs. read more

My desktop PC was showing no signal to either one of my monitors, no matter how many times I tried updating, restarting, unplugging, and plugging it back in.  I looked around online for someone who could diagnose the issue and found Allstate Computers. I read all the wonderful reviews about the owner, John, and gave him a call, to which he said to bring it in when I have the time. John immediately hooked it up, and in about a minute or so, had run many diagnostic scans. I was given a full diagnosis and a lot of answers about my PC's problems. This included a BIOS firmware that hadn't been updated since 2018! John helped me update and install it the following day. My PC has been running smoother than ever since taking it to John. Both diagnostic appointments were free of charge. I will be bringing my computer to Allstate Computers from here on out and would highly recommend others do the same if you want quality customer service, expertise, and convenience. read more

I sent in a request about building a custom PC. I didn't buy it pre-built so I had all the components, but was having troubling with assembling it myself. John responded to my inquiry super fast, gave me a quote, and the next day I was able to drop off all my parts! He was responsive and communicative throughout the whole build, and it only took a couple days for it to be finished. All States Computers did an AMAZING job, so much better than what I could've done. When I walked into the shop to pick up the PC, I was amazed and sooo excited because it looked so good!!! Everything ran perfectly, the PC was cooled efficiently (currently running at ~44C on average), and I've been able to run everything I want to at home. I knew that this was a challenging request, and I am so so happy with the results and the work that was done here. He built everything and installed Windows for an incredibly reasonable price, and I will definitely come back for anything else I need that's computer related. 10/10 service, highly recommend!!! read more

See all

Brought in my Macbook Pro for repair after I could get not it to charge. John (the owner) stopped what he was doing to troubleshoot my laptop. He quickly diagnosed a bad DC port, and told me that he'd only charge me if the replacement worked. This business is a class act. Repair was completed days ahead of schedule, and owner reduced price when he was able to get the part for a cheaper price. Outstanding customer service. 5 stars. It's refreshing to know that knowledgeable and professional business owners still exist! read more

John is professional, kind and easy to talk to. He wasn't aggressive at all and didn't seem like he just wanted to make money off of me. He explained the issue with my laptop in detail and gave me multiple options. He was very honest and genuine. We will definitely be coming back for future repair needs. read more

I had never been to this location before but I really needed someone to look at my computer asap. I waited less than five minutes and was immediately serviced. I've taken my laptop to geek squad and I always felt that they did nothing to help with my computer issues but when I came to a Allstates Computers, I noticed an immediate difference on how much time and effort was spent to try to help resolve my computer problems. I will never go to geek squad ever again this is forever my go to computer repair place now. read more

I wheeled in my massive tower (C700M E-ATX) that was having issues posting an image. Mid lunch, John went right to testing the components of my build (GPU, RAM, etc) and was very helpful in diagnosing what the fault was. He had a fix for my issue and had me out of his shop in no time. An honest man, for which I am grateful. Will gladly do business here! read more

John was amazing. He quickly fixed my son's gaming PC that was having a booting and hardware issue. I would totally recommend Allstates to anyone with a simple or complex computer issue. read more

My son built his first gaming computer, but it kept crashing. I called Allstates and decided to come on in because they offered a free diagnosis. We dropped it off right before they closed and they diagnosed and fixed the computer by the next morning (today). I am very happy with their service! read more

I broke my computer trying to flash-update my bios (stuck in a bootloop+blackscreen). After spending a whole night of troubleshooting I was wholly convinced it'd be easier to just buy a whole new motherboard and rebuild my PC - but figured it wouldn't hurt for the free diagnostic here. John ended up completely restoring my PC + informed me I had some cable issues. He rearranged all of the ones that I had wired incorrectly before and if you look at the picture, managed to turn on lights I didn't even know existed. This was all for free & done within 15 minutes. I still gave $20 because it's good to be free & I'm looking forward to coming back for any future issues. Definitely come in here before giving up. read more
