Brought in my vintage Osterizer blender hoping it could be repaired and I wasn't disappointed. The gentleman (Dean?) replaced the part on which the blender base sits to rotate the blade while I waited for maybe 30 minutes! The cost was very reasonable for me too! SO happy! read more

Since this business moved out of San Jose I have not been to their new location in Sunnyvale. Too bad it's so difficult to get to, and reading the reviews about them being closed at odd hours when they're suppose to be open. I really want to rent their Thermax steam carpet cleaner as I cannot find anywhere else to rent it, and they have always been fair with price. I'm not going to drive 15 miles to find the doors closed as others have discovered, so maybe they just lost my business, unless someone can verify they are open when they say they are open? read more

I called to ask for a quote over the phone, and the woman who answered was rude and dismissive. Instead of simply explaining their policy, she snapped at me and went on a long spiel about why they "can't give quotes over the phone." If she had handled it respectfully, I would've made the 20+ minute drive, but her attitude completely turned me off. Definitely not an inviting first impression. read more

Dean and Christie! are hands down the best! I have been a customer for a long time and so has the company I work for. Dean always does a great job on all of our appliance! the price you cant beat! I cant think them enough for their great service and kindness! I will always be a loyal customer! read more

I took my coffee machine here for a small repair, and they kept it saying that a part is on back order for 3 whole months. I ordered the part myself, and it was delivered in a week. They scam people into keeping the appliances for such a long period so they can take their sweet time. I also noticed the box the part was delivered in, and it had a time stamp on it of July. Please don't go there. read more

They fixed my used vacuum cleaner that I got for $20 for around $60. Still cheaper than I would have to spend to buy a new one, and they were very upfront about the service costs. They cleaned out the whole unit as well, and were very responsive over the phone. read more

This company should be out of business. Please recognize all the 1 star ratings and go elsewhere. Long story short I took my Hoover vac to them for repair and they lost the receipt I provided that was required for them to get the approval code to do the mandated repair work. Again, I was REQUIRED to leave my receipt per Hoover and I did. It was misplaced by A.R.E. and they blamed me and harassed me multiple times via text trying to get me to replace the receipt. It was my only copy, silly me I didn't think the designated Hoover repair shop would be this inept so I didn't make a copy of it. Neither A.R.E. or Hoover will make me whole so they just get to keep my broken vac and I'm out the cost of the machine. All I can say is avoid, avoid, avoid this company at all cost and only buy Bissell products, they last much longer and you won't need a repair shop! read more

If I could give 0 stars at this point I would. The lack of customer service is ridiculous! I have called multiple times and no response. They have had my Delonghi Espresso Maker for over a month now and never called with an update. When we finally got through to someone, they said the part was on backorder and did not give us an ETA!! The amount that I have had to spend on getting coffee out has more than exceeded the cost of a new maker at this point! Very, very awful service and I definitely will never go here again. I just pray I get my espresso maker back very soon. read more

I walked in with the base of my Sunbeam mixer in hopes of replacing its missing feet. They took it into the back room, hunted around for a bit, and put two new feet on that fit - and gave me two more, just in case. No charge, even though I offered to pay. Thanks! read more

I have used their services for maintaining a KitchenAid mixer and repairing a Nespresso machine. This time I needed an emergency repair on a severed pet feeding machine power cord, and they were here for me. Excellent service. Friendly people. Their services are reasonably priced. read more

This shop did a warranty-covered fix of my Bissel steam cleaner after it stopped working. They called to let me know it was available to come pick up. I live 35-40 minutes away, in Palo Alto, but came here because it was the closest business that did repairs under warranty. I made the drive there on a Saturday morning to find that no one was there during their open hours. I waited in the parking lot for 45 minutes- no one. I've called about 10 times this week trying to find out when someone will be there next- no one ever picks up the phone. So this place has my machine but I cannot retrieve it since they aren't open during posted business hours and no one will pick up my call. I'm going to call Bissel and see if they can help me get my machine back. Stay away unless you want to spend hours of your time driving back and forth trying to retrieve your belongings and trying to reach someone. read more

Steer clear of this business they will take your money for a part and then never ever answer the phone! Or return phone calls!!

My KitchenAid stand mixer started making this horrible grinding sound. A search for KitchenAid service centers showed up Appliance Repair Express. I was initially a little apprehensive reading the other reviews. But I figured I'd give it a shot (especially since the alternative was to ship the very heavy mixer to KitchenAid in PA). I'm here to tell you, they were fantastic! They told me I'd be contacted in a weeks time. Unfortunately this was around the week of Valentine's Day (cupcakes!!). I called and asked if they could rush it. Next day I get a call back saying the gears need replacing and it'll be ready for pickup the next day. Next day, my mixer is ready, it works flawlessly, and has been till today. I use my mixer a LOT! Including making pizza doughs, very stiff bagel doughs, frosting, etc. The mixer has been working perfectly without any issues. Thank you Appliance Repair Express! read more

I took my DeLonghi Expresso coffee machine in for repair. Great service and price. Great value and one week service ok

I was reluctant to take my coffee maker here for repair based on the reviews because customer service is important to me. But alas, it was the only place near me to repair my brand of coffee maker so I decided to give it a shot. I will start by saying that they did a great job fixing my coffee maker and even repaired some things I didn't ask them to. They repaired what was broken and made sure it was in tip top working order. It's like I have a brand new coffee maker. They were straight up with me on the length of time it might take. So why the one star off? The customer service isn't the best. The lady running the front wasn't the friendliest but hey, not everyone has a cheery disposition right? No one called me to tell me what the cost would be. I did have to call back twice before someone called back with the estimated price. And this was a week after they said they would have a chance to look at at it. *BUT* when they called back with the estimated price, they said it would be ready in just a day or two. YAY! From my experience, they do great work but lack in customer service. read more

This is a "mom and pop" shop that has been in the community for many years and I've used them before. They are a man and woman couple but they are not the same people whom I've done business with before. Unfortunately, this is the worst business I've had to deal with in very many years. When I dropped off my carpet cleaner September 3rd, it seemed innocent enough that the lady at the front did not give a receipt or statement of my machine being dropped off. Mistake #1 Instead they say they'll call me when it's ready. I should have considered that a sign for a lack of accountability. However, I trusted them as a local small business that I had used before. Mistake #2. I call back two weeks and two days later and the lady who was at the front counter said they ordered the part and they're waiting for it. I said it's been over two weeks. Parts would be received within two weeks if it were shipped from ANYWHERE within the United States. They said they're still waiting. I listened because I couldn't do anything at the time. Mistake #3. After another week and them having my machine for almost a month, I call them again and the guy who does the repairs answers saying the part they received was broken so they had to order another part. I state the fact of such a lengthy timeframe. The guy says I can come pick up my carpet cleaner if I want. But I give them another chance. Mistake #4 At this point I'm smelling something very fishy and my patience runs thin. It's now more than 6 weeks and they have never made the initiative to call for an update or anything. Tomorrow I'm picking up my cleaner and taking my business elsewhere and never returning for anything. I would be very embarrassed if I was the business owner. read more

This is the winner business to the worst business, extremely rude wife and husband rolling this place, they super charge for the minimum, they blocked your number so you don't have a way to talk to them, they claim to have Covid-19 so don't bother for 2 weeks, pieces are taking to long to be deliver all kind of lies this 2 persons say, is the worse experience ever with this 2 persons DONT GO HERE DONT GO HERE Please don't waist your time and money with this couple. Worst business owners ever. read more

Not satisfied with repair under their warranty. Took coffee machine back 2 days before their warranty expired. Still waiting after 2 months. Only get answering machine! read more

We had been making a lot of homemade pizza dough during COVID and managed to bring our Kitchen Aid stand mixer to its knees. Hubby replaced the plastic gear but was still unable to get it started again. Waited forever to take it down to San Jose to get fixed, but once I decided that today was the day, I drove down in the early afternoon. The repairman carried it from my car, took my $20 analysis fee, and was able to tell me the problem within 5 minutes. He said it would take him 15-20 more minutes to adjust the speeds and service the rear bearings. I was happy to wait. 3 other customers came by to get help while I was waiting, so clearly this is an in-demand service. 15 minutes later I was driving away, having paid an additional $45 for labor/parts. So, a total of $65 to repair it-sweet! The service couldn't have been friendlier, faster, or more professional. I will make the 30-minute trip the next time anything else mechanical in our house breaks down. Highly recommend. read more

I dropped off my Saeco Espresso Machine to be repaired. He had the machine for 3 Months and never fixed it. During those 3 Months I called dozens of times and left a dozen voicemails. Despite all my calling, I was only able to get ahold of them 2 times during the 3 Months. Both times I got ahold of them they lied and said they would get it fixed tomorrow and call me back (which they never did). - They don't answer their Phone! - They don't return voicemails! - They lie to their customers! - They hold on to expensive appliances for months without fixing them. I can't believe they went 3 Months and they never fixed it! How do they stay business? How hard is it to call your customers back? read more

As an "Authorized Krups Repair Center" I drove 65 miles to bring in my machine which was leaking coffee. After paying $20 I was told after much pestering for two months it would take a month. A month later it hadn't been touched. They handed back and by then the entire machine was completely moldy. I mailed it to Los Angeles where it was fixed in 14 days at much less the price, even with shipping. read more

The repair to my Kitchen Aid stand mixer got it back running beautifully! Not great at call backs, but as long as they make the repairs, I could care less! Their repair "skill set" is the thing I go here for, not a "chit chat" - impeccable repairs at a very fair price! read more

I had read all the mixed Yelp reviews for Appliance Repair Express but our KitchenAid mixer was on the fritz, my wife (a cookbook author) wanted to bake and we needed help. The next nearest KitchenAid-authorized repair center for countertop appliances is in Los Altos, so I headed to Cambrian Park. I found Appliance Repair Express next to the front door to Cambrian Bowl. The shop has lots of merchandise stored everywhere, both for sale and in for repair. I had a really positive experience. Appliance Repair Express diagnosed my (mixer's) problem and fixed it on the spot in about 10 minutes. They charged me the shop minimum repair rate ($10), they were friendly and I appreciated their help. Granted, as it turned out, my repair was simple. I can imagine that more complicated repairs can take much longer, and given that a lot of our devices these days aren't really designed to be serviced or repaired, I can see why some customers could leave here or anywhere else less than completely satisfied. These folks are in a tough line of work and I'm sure they often deal with upset, frustrated customers with stuff I'm sure they wish they could fix even more quickly and efficiently. FYI, when I was in the shop, two other customers brought in countertop automatic espresso makers - I guess they fix a lot of those, plus mixers, vacuums and lots of other small, portable appliances. I wish everyone with broken appliances the same good luck I had at Appliance Repair Express, or wherever your broken stuff takes you! read more

I wish I could get this place a zero. The first time I had to take my carpet cleaner here because of warranty they never called me to let me know my carpet cleaner was ready for pick up. I let it slide. Lo and behold I had to go there again for another warranty issue on the carpet cleaner. I called them and left them two messages and they never called me back so I just showed up to drop it off since it is the closest a local service center. I asked if they could call me to give me an estimate on how long it would be I never heard from them. Call them and left them a voicemail to remind them that they were supposed to call me and again haven't heard back. read more

We dropped off our appliance off for repair over 3 weeks ago. They said someone would call in 2-3 business days with a repair quote but did not. I have been calling every 3-4 days but keep getting their voicemail. I have left several messages with all of my contact information, but still have not received a return call (are they screening my phone number?!). The location is very inconvenient for me to travel to, so I can't just show up. I whole-heartedly agree with the negative reviews posted here. DO NOT GRACE THIS PLACE WITH YOUR BUSINESS!! read more

The hook stuck on my KA stand mixer and I couldn't remove it by myself, so I decided to find a professional. After research I found this place, seems like they are the only professional who offer fixing KA stand mixer around Bay Area. Professional service with fair price. Although it's hard to contact them sometimes. Overall I think they deserve 4 stars! read more

Awesome Customer Service and I am greatful for Dean & his wife. Dean was able to assist me with an issue with my Hopsy Beer Sub Machine. He went out of his way to resolve my issue. Thank you Dean! read more

We came in about 20 minutes before closing, expecting to drop our espresso machine off for repair and pick it up another day. Dean (I think is his name) told us to go around the corner, enjoy some coffee, and come back in one hour. Before we knew it, our DeLonghi was like new again! Superb service will definitely come in for repairs again! PS: He can repair almost anything, just ask! read more

Update to add: If you choose to give this business the benefit of the doubt, and receive poor service through lack of communication and many weeks of waiting for your appliance to be repaired, and then choose to share your experience through a review, you may then (quite promptly!) receive harassing DMs from the business owner (through the *unclaimed* Yelp account!) including accusations that you abused your machine, concerns that certainly were not flagged during the cumulative months that your machine was in their possession for consecutive repairs. I, too, gave them the benefit of the doubt. Unfortunately, I can't recommend anyone else do the same. read more

What a nightmare. I was worried taking my mixer in after reading so many mixed experiences. But it needed repair and this place is down the street from me so I decided to take my chances. I dropped it off about a week and a half before thanksgiving, paid the $20 diagnostic fee upfront and was told they would try and get it back before thanksgiving. When I hadn't heard anything the next week I called. No answer, so I left a message with my number. Still nothing. Kept calling back and finally got a hold of someone. All they said was they were still working on it and would update me when they had a chance to diagnose it. Thanksgiving came and went. Still nothing. They don't answer the phone regularly. Finally my husband went down. They told him they'd diagnosed the problem but hadn't completed the repair because they hadn't been able to get a hold of anyone to approve it (they NEVER called me). He approved the $45 repair and they said it would be ready in a day or two. I thought it was fishy that they "couldn't" tell him what it was that needed repair. A few more days went by, several more attempted phone calls. They finally answered and said it was ready. Got it home only to find out that it turned on again, but now made a god awful high pitched screech. We took it back and they said they'd try again. We tried calling a few more times over the last week it was there. Never any answers. My husband finally got a hold of some one today. They said a bracket was loose, but it was fixed now and we could come get it. Got it home and the same problem- it's still making a god awful high pitched screech when turned on. So $65 later and I still have a mixer that can't be used and I'm tired of playing their games of calling and calling with no answer, not returning calls, and not even attempting to communicate with their customers. read more

I'd been having problems with my KitchenAid stand mixer and figured out that the problem should be fixed with new carbon motor brushes. But when I ordered the parts, it still didn't work. The folks at KitchenAid support recommended that I take my mixer to Appliance Repair Express. I live in Oakland, so I gave them a call and left a voice message, explaining the problem. I got a call back in about 20 minutes with a "secret tip" I NEVER would have figured out. Her clear explanation of how to put the motor brushes in correctly, fixed the problem!!! Excellent Customer Service!! Thank you!!!! read more

I don't usually leave reviews but, given the mixed reviews here, I wanted to just share my positive experience. We took our Gaggia Brera superautomatic espresso machine that had some serious flow issues (caused probably by a lack of descaling) to the Appliance Repair Express shop on a Saturday morning. They charged us the $20 for diagnostic and said they'd call on Monday or Tuesday with a total. On Monday morning they called and said the problem was the pump that needed to be exchanged. They quoted $229.6, which seemed reasonable, given that the pump itself costs around $35 and they said they charged $98 the hour of labor. We agreed to the price and around two hours later they called again to let us know it was ready for pickup. I was honestly surprised, especially because I had read some reviews that said it took them forever to have it fixed, but it took less than three days to have our espresso machine back and working. We've been using it for a week now and it seems to work just fine. We'll be descaling it regularly now! read more

I had a broken Bissell Vaccum/steam mop. Was referred to them by Bissell as they are an authorized service center. As soon as I walked in I was greeted and received good customer service. I was told they would repair it or hear from them in a week or two. 4-5 weeks later, still no call or voicemail from them. I ended up calling them and leaving a voicemail. An hour later I get a call back saying that it is ready for pick up. Overall I am happy that they fixed my Bissell and it works like new again. I am giving 4 stars because I had to call after 4-5 weeks of me waiting. read more

Came buy with our DeLonghi Magnifica Espresso Machine, which needed repair. Was expecting a couple of weeks to diagnose, order replacement parts, and repair. However, Dean said he could diagnose it while I was there. After 15 minutes, he provided a repair estimate. Then since he had all the necessary parts, he said to come back in an hour and the machine would be repaired and tuned up! My jaw dropped. I never expected that level of service from any repair shop. I then brought the machine home, buffed out and polished the stainless steel tray, and it now works and looks as good as new, brewing perfect short shots of espresso. These guys saved my day! My wife arrived from a one week trip out of town, the next morning. I scored major brownie points by having the espresso machine back, all restored, and ready to perform! Please give these guys your business, personalized service from seasoned professionals is getting harder to find in the world of Amazon Prime and EBay. We need to keep these shops in business... read more

Appliance Repair Express - Thanks Dean, enjoying perfect short shots of espresso again! - Appliances & Repair Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

Very thankful whenever I come across good 'ol fashion competence, professionalism and customer service. I made a special trip from SF to have my Delonghi espresso machine serviced. Dean made a point to prioritize it first, while I wait nearby. Intake was expedient, service was the same. Got a call back in about 45 minutes with a prognosis of the situation, price for resolution, and repair complete. Pickup was a cinch as well -- out the door in 5 minutes. Cherry on top -- ended my day with a nice cup of espresso! :) Thank you, Dean! read more

They fixed my kitchen aid mixer quickly for an extremely reasonable cost. Pleasant experience for sure.

When you are living through a pandemic and baking is your happy place, loosing my 30 year old kitchen Aid mixer was a not something I was going to take lightly. After calling Kitchen Aid and getting a few names I was willing to drive an Hr. to get it done. This guy not only had the proper protocol in delivering the unit but wore a mask and fixed it while I did a tour of San Jose. I can't recommend highly enough. read more

Appliance Repair Express is devoid of integrity or customer service. Anyone looking to have their appliances repaired would be well-advised to take their business elsewhere. I took a chance on Appliance Repair Express, despite negative the reviews on the Internet, because they were the only authorized Rowenta service center in the area. But as it turns out, Rowenta is also lacking in integrity and customer service. Rowenta refused any form of assistance when its authorized service center breached its contract with me and, presumably, failed to uphold the standards inherent in being deemed an authorized service center. When I first contacted Appliance Repair Express by email, it was to inquire if they could repair my steam iron. It was a simple Yes/No question, complete with a photograph of the broken part and information provided by Rowenta regarding what the part was. Appliance Repair Express promptly responded to my first email, then stopped communicating with me. It took three more emails over five days before they would answer me. But instead of giving me a simple yes or no that this was something they could fix, they insisted that I bring them the steam iron and pay $20 for an estimate. So I did as they asked. At that point, we had a contract for service: (1) Appliance Repair Express's offer to provide an estimate for repairs, (2) my acceptance of that offer, and (3) consideration in the form of the $20 that I paid. But then Appliance Repair Express breached the contract. I heard nothing from Appliance Repair Express for two weeks. First I phoned and reached only a recording. So I left a voicemail message. I followed up with an email, which they ignored. I sent two more emails before they finally responded, nearly three weeks after they took my iron from me. The broken part was a very straightforward problem requiring no diagnostics. Generating an estimate required no more than five minutes of Appliance Repair Express's time. If they weren't going to provide a timely estimate, they had an obligation to inform me of that before entering into a contract with me so that I could make an informed decision whether to do business with them or to go elsewhere. But that's not what they did. They led me to believe that they would provide a timely estimate, with no unreasonable delays. When Appliance Repair Express finally sent me an estimate, they told me that the part had to be obtained from France and that it would take several weeks to receive it. They also made clear that they would continue to slow-walk the repairs even once the part was received. That's when I turned to Rowenta for help. All I wanted from Appliance Repair Express and Rowenta is for them to expedite shipping of the replacement part so that my iron could be repaired without further unnecessary delays. But neither Appliance Repair Express nor Rowenta would do anything to help. They wouldn't expedite shipping of the replacement part or expedite the repairs once the part was received. They wouldn't send me the part so that I could repair the iron myself. Nor would they replace the iron--which clearly had a manufacturing defect, design defect, or both. Further, no one from either Appliance Repair Express or Rowenta ever apologized for the unreasonable and unnecessary delays. I suspect that Appliance Repair Express was deliberately slow-walking the estimate and repairs, in part, so that they could charge an extra "storage fee" for items left more than 30 days. Ultimately, Appliance Repair Express declined to repair my iron and shipped it back to me. I'm certain they spent more time and money shipping it back to me than it would have cost them to simply repair my iron and let me pick it up. read more

I was referred by Kitchen Aid to get my stand mixer fixed here. The bowl of the mixer would dismount during kneading and I gave them my machine with bowl and every accessory. Within a day I was told that the base plate needed to be changed and the fix was about $95 which I was happy about. Only, the problem wasn't fixed at all! Every time I tried the machine with a stiff dough, the problem re-surfaced, sending the bowl spinning wildly. I left several messages asking if there was any adjustments I needed to do, but got no response. Finally, I was told to take it back which I did. Then the troubles got worse. I made repeated calls to get a status on the machine and never got any reply. About a few weeks after, I got a call from the shop that the bowl now needed to be replaced for an additional $65. I went back and retrieved my machine. When I asked why this new problem wasn't detected the first time around I got a really unsatisfactory and unapologetic response. No apologies, no explanations, nothing! And a bowl that costs $35 on Amazon was quoted to me for $65, over and above my initial payment for the very same problem! Clearly this was not even tested to ensure that the problem was fixed. After many weeks of waiting with no machine, and a $100 down and multiple trips to the store, I am back to the original state and am most frustrated. I will not recommend this place to anyone. I will also let Kitchen Aid know that they should not recommend this place anymore. read more
