I've been using Aztec Appliances for at least 10 years. My husband and I manage about 60-70 properties Downtown San Diego in Highrises and appliances are getting older. I have a person named Al and I email him with a model number and it doesn't matter if it's an older model he just matches it with a new one. (858) 987-5777 ask for Al. They have the best delivery service and my favorite person is Cesar. In 15 years he's never caused any damage and he is so polite. He can install any appliance it doesn't matter what it is. You won't be disappointed! read more

I had a super positive experience working with Dawn, the customer service specialist while also having a negative experience working with a specialist, Jesus while purchasing a washing machine. After purchasing a washing machine on the website, I got a same-day call from Jesus and was told it would take about 6 days for the model I ordered to arrive from the manufacturer. 6 days pass, 7 days pass, 8 days pass, no update from Jesus. I call Jesus on a Saturday for an update and was told to send an email in 3 days because he's out on Monday. I wait 3 more days and sent an email the morning of the 4th day about the situation. No response all day. So I decided to call Jesus and was told over the phone that there is likely no available stock from the manufacturer for that particular model, I was offered an alternative at a discounted price. I took a day to think about it and decide to move forward with the alternate model at the discounted price. I ask for an updated invoice. I am told an invoice will be sent. No invoice was sent to the email on file. I continue texting Jesus about the unit and I ask again for an invoice to be sent to a different email just in case the first one bounced somehow. I wait for a day or two, no invoice yet but agree to have the washing machine delivered because it had been over 2 weeks since I made the initial purchase. It's the day of delivery and I still haven't gotten an invoice from Jesus. I call Aztec Appliance for customer support and get connected to Dawn. Dawn was so helpful in the situation with the way she was able to gain a better understanding of what had happened thus far. She was able to confirm that the info Jesus shared with me about the original model's unavailability was true and sent me a copy of the invoice (third times the charm). The delivery and installation of the unit was smooth. Their team was quick and efficient. Unfortunately I had to call Dawn again to clarify the fact that the invoice indicated that the unit I received was an open box model and was concerned about the viability of the manufacturers warrenty. The fact that the model I received was an open box model was never disclosed to me by Jesus. It was extremely disappointing to work with Jesus i.e. nonexistent outreach to provide updates, undelivered invoices after multiple requests, lack of transparency for items sold. TLDR; Dawn is amazing. If you have a chance to work with her, you'll have an amazing time at Actec Appliance. I wouldn't like to have my order serviced by Jesus the next time I choose to purchase something from Aztec Appliance. read more

We have purchased Bosch double ovens, a Bosch refrigerator and a very expensive microwave from Aztec Appliances, and I hate to say it, BUT NEVER EVER again. The upper oven requires a "rigged" solution to work and the refrigerator broke one month before the manufacturer warranty expired. We have now been TWO MONTHS without a refrigerator, Thanksgiving was take-out and I have no hope for any Christmas cooking at this point. Aztec's response? "Not our problem." Really? A store that sells appliances couldn't stand behind their product? They have zero ability to help with a replacement? I hate choosing Best Buy or Home Depot over a local business, but I beg anyone reading this to beware. Sadly, you'd be better off going with a national chain if you want any leverage against a brand like Bosch. In other words, thanks for absolutely nothing, Aztec. read more

We are remodeling our kitchen. We really weren't sure which direction to go with the kitchen appliances but luckily Marvin greeted us at the door. He was so helpful and informative. We pretty much did a one stop shop and got everything we needed. Marvin is the best! The store had a really nice selection displayed. read more

I needed an above range microwave and the sales team made the process so easy. They found me the best deal without all the fuss and hassle some retailers try to swing. My item was not in stock but they had it shipped and I picked up in store. The sales process was easy, i would say the pick up was less of a wow, pulling up to the back and ringing for service, but I get it. Will return for my appliance needs in the future! read more

I want to take a moment to share a genuinely positive experience with Aztec Appliances, especially because it completely turned around my initial impression of the company. To be fully transparent, my first visit to the Kearney Mesa location was underwhelming. I didn't feel well assisted and left disappointed. I won't name anyone from that visit, as that experience had nothing to do with the people who ultimately earned my business back. After that visit, I called Aztec Appliances, and that's where everything changed. Dawn answered the phone, and her warmth, professionalism, and genuine customer service immediately stood out. She patiently listened as I explained my experience and made me feel heard and valued. Because of Dawn alone, I decided to give Aztec Appliances another opportunity. She recommended that I work with Adrian at the Morena location and also encouraged me to email the general manager, Larry. Larry was a class act. He personally responded to my email, addressed my concerns directly, and made sure everything was handled professionally. When my wife and I arrived at the Morena location, Adrian was exceptional. He was knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely helpful. He walked us through different appliance options, explained the pros and cons clearly, and took the time to understand what we were looking for without any pressure. This was our first appliance purchase for our first home, and Adrian made the experience smooth and enjoyable. Dawn was also there in person and was just as pleasant and professional as she was on the phone. Between Dawn, Adrian, and Larry, the level of customer service was outstanding. I work in a family-owned retail business myself, and customer service is something we take very seriously. Because of this experience, I will absolutely be recommending Aztec Appliances to my clients, specifically the Morena location, and working with Adrian. Thank you to Dawn, Adrian, and Larry for turning a rough first impression into a truly great experience for me and my wife. read more

I bought a Miele washing machine from Aztec on 2/2/26. Aztec installers came twice to install the washing machine. The first time they gave us reasons why they could not install it. We addressed each issue, and the installers agreed to install the machine. They unpacked the machine and found it to be damaged. They took back the machine, and another installation date was scheduled. The second time they refused to install the machine for new reasons. One of the new reasons was our water valves were corroded. They left the machine in our living room, and we hired a plumber to install the machine. The plumber installed the machine, telling us the water valves were fine. Aztec has not refunded what I paid for installation. read more

Dawn went out of her way to get me a specific refrigerator at the last minute! She was polite & helpful & the fridge was delivered on time & is great. Now that my freezer works, I'm gonna go eat some ice cream ;) haha read more

Bought new Sub-Zero refrigerator and Kitchenaid gas cooktop from Sergio Pina, the manager at Aztec in the past few months. Sergio knows his stuff, responsive and coordinated with South Coast Installs, Miguel and team, who were easy to work with, showed up on time, and did a great job. Nothing is cheap anymore in San Diego but I think they charged fair prices for the services and didn't mess anything up. read more

I didn't have the best experience until I got MIA from customer service. She saved the day and went above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of. She is fantastic in her job. I finally felt heard and understood. Thank you Mia for everything. She's a keeper and deserves a raise! read more

We have bought appliances here a few times but this last time was an over the top experience, Brian is extremely patient and knowledgeable when it came to choosing the perfect appliance for our needs!

UPDATE---2024 PURCHASE EXPERIENCES: October 17 Refrigerator Purchase After the earlier long distance fridge purchase with Ryan detailed below.....as I was back in SD in October I decided to proactively replace my mom's 7-10 year old refrigerator. Went to Aztec outlet this week and received A- mazing help and consult FROM AL ! We went through the outlet warehouse stock of slightly blemished units and he had a high end Bosch French door fridge that he made me an irresistible $1,300 discount offer on !!! And to deal the deal it's the modern counter depth ( 24") that is such an aesthetic improvement to our narrow galley style kitchen ( see photos of old unit hanging out and the PERFECT fit of the Bosch unit he got us into). In addition, he offered a great 4 years extended warranty that I bought with some of the savings he offered. In summary, I never thought we could afford a top end make like Bosch.....but I'm finding that in our family's 20 year appliance purchase history with AZTEC ANYthing can be possible --- IF you're willing to accept some small dent or scratch imperfections that other picky people rejected. I love the " Damaged Goods" purchase possibilities this Aztec outlet warehouse offers !!!!!! You'll never see such opportunities at Home Depot or Lowe's THANKS AL for your help!! I'll be calling you again I'm sure SEPTEMBER 2024 REFRIGERATOR BUY Just finished another terrific FIVE STARZ ***** purchase long-distance from outside the US via email - phone with RYAN. Case was my brother´s refrigerator had the compressor burn out after only 5 years !!! The service tech recommended that we spend more for quality this time (he likes Bosch and Kitcheaide ) so I asked RYAN for options and specials out-of-the-box that Aztec Outlet so GREAT at. RYAN REALLY came through in the course of about 3 hours he´d emailed me three options immediately available in their warehouse to get to my brother ASAP (they were making two ice runs daily keeping perishables semi-cold). Working with him very easy after he offered a terrific $700 discount on a really nice Bosch French door model. After phoning my credit card info in he set up delivery for 72 hours later. Again........LOOK NO FURTHER than AZTEC for your appliance needs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2021 REFRIGERATOR BUY FROM RUDY: I like a LOT of San Diegans have been buying ALL our family's appliances at AZTEC for over 20 years now. Although sad to see the downtown store by me close, when my 15 year old Whirlpool refrigerator started a slow leak from its water line inlet Aztec was only a call away. I started as I always do at their outlet section to se any aesthetic discounts. Was SO LUCKY that Rudy picked up the phone. MAN, what a great guy and expert in helping me find a new fridge based on so many considerations and options !! After buying one at 5:55 pm before they closed, he even helped me upgrade the very next day to a better model over the phone --after I'd had time to think. But it didn't stop here, via emails and texting he helped me prep for the delivery requirement that there be a shut-off valve by the fridge for his delivery crew to hook up my new unit. On top of all this is the fact that Aztec has their OWN deliery crew (not 3rd party contractors like HD or Lowes that you can never track down). And on top of that is the IN-credible $59 delivery charge INCLUDING removal of the old fridge !!! AGAIN, the family success with Aztec continues. Look no further than this company....and hope you share my luck getting RUDY as your appliance expert !! read more

Aztec Appliance - Old fridge we replaced with standard depth that hung 12 inches out from counter - Appliances Near Me - San Diego, California

We did a major kitchen remodel and used Aztec Appliance. We are definitely happy we chose Aztec as opposed to a big box store like Best Buy, Lowe's or Pacific Sales. We would not have received anywhere near the same level of attention from a big box retailer. We purchased a Viking range, Miele Dishwasher, Miele Washer and Dryer, wine storage unit, Sub Zero Refrigerator, microwave-convection oven and a Fisher-Paykel DishDrawer for our bar Area. Marvin was helpful and aware of rebates and other offerings from the various manufacturers. This helped us to save some money on this purchase. Also, when we ran into issues with the installer (not Aztec Appliance, a separate company) and delays with getting one of the appliances, Marvin and the the other staff at Aztec were helpful in getting resolution. We definitely will purchase from them again in the future and recommend their services. read more

They made a return visit to correct an improperly secured exhaust connection. They refused to replace the damaged range hood they drilled a hole through and did a less than professional repair of the exhaust duct connection they left open dumping carbon monoxide into the cabinet and living space. Duct tape does not replace a mechanical connection between hood exhaust and vent duct. They left a 2 inch gap and covered it with foil duct tape, no anchors at all connecting. Sad to experience such work when we paid for a professional installation and gave them the opportunity to correct. Now I have to get a professional to secure the connection and I am still left with a blemished hood. And they up charged me $175.00 at installation for parts needed to install after I paid for install kits with the install. Extremely disappointed. read more

Good selection and good prices. Had a great experience with Karen who is no longer there. Because of that, decided to drive 20 miles when recently looking for a refrigerator. Sales person Marvin was helpful in showing us options, but then said he'd be right back. He disappeared leaving us alone on the floor, and after waiting for 15 minutes for him to return, we got tired of waiting and left. Others behind the counter seemed oblivious. read more

Thank goodness I found this place! Absolutely amazing from beginning to end. Was at my wits end trying to find a Wolf range that seemed to be sold out everywhere. Was about to give up after Pacific Sales (do not use them) told me I was 47 on the wait list. What?? Expanded my search to beyond local and found these guys, with one in stock. Great service, seamless process. Highly recommend. read more

Alan was very helpful in getting exactly what I wanted. He was very thorough and wanted to make sure it would fit and be the correct item. Delivery was exactly as promised. We were told it would be delivered Tuesday and we would get a text the night before with a delivery window. We were very pleased to be given a 7-10a window and it was delivered at 8a. The delivery guys were extremely nice and efficient. Super positive experience! read more

Bad delivery experience. Shopping in store was good. salesperson Curtis answered questions, gave me recommendations based on my previous product and my current needs. Felt heard and valued as a customer. The delivery person, however, entire different story. Won't recommend or personally go to Aztec again unless delivery options change. read more

I am NOT writing this with the goal of singling any employee(s) out. I really don't want anyone to lose a job. This WHOLE business needs an overhaul. Leadership casts an important shadow (good or bad) over the entire organization and in this case the top leadership here must be terrible. I needed a refrigerator. Not too picky but I found that HD and Costco offered a whirlpool at a competitive price and delivery within 48 hours. My husband instead suggested we give the local company a chance. BIG MISTAKE. Here's what I observed during this transaction : Aztec doesn't seem to have inventory. They wait for your order to be placed and in turn place an order with their supplier which then has them quote me (the customer) a 2 week lead time to delivery "give or take". When I asked what "give or take" means, I was told it could be upward of two months. Aztec then says they can provide a more expensive model faster and so we bite. You might think that means we would receive the frig closer to the delivery timeline quoted by the bigger box stores but you'd be wrong. The frig was set to be delivered 8 days later with a delivery window of 8-11 am. At 8:30 I received a call from Aztec that their driver has COVID so there would be no delivery that day. Concurrently, my husband got a call that their driver couldn't get his personal vehicle to work that day so called out. Which is true? Who can say. We heard later that day our shipment now goes to the BOTTOM of their delivery queue and we would be in receipt of said frig 3 business days later. As it turns out, neither me or my husband was avail to receive the delivery (as they had routed it for the afternoon) because we would be in meetings. When we called to say that wouldn't work, back to the bottom of the list we go and since they "don't deliver on Saturdays" we would receive it sometime 8 days later. We are advised they will deliver between 12 and 3 pm. You want to know when they arrived? After 5 pm. So we took the whole afternoon off unnecessarily in addition to having taken another morning off for the first scheduled delivery. Did I mention we didn't have a working frig for the two weeks it took them to get it to us? Our experience indicated not a single employee thought (or seemed to care) we were being inconvenienced at any point in the process. What they would have you believe is that they are the biggest distributor of these products to San Diego and thus there's nothing in the sales/operations department that could be prioritized any differently than currently is. This will be our last purchase here. Which is probably no big deal except for the fact my husband is a licensed general contractor focusing on kitchen/bath remodels/ADUs and to this point always recommended the local guys. They said they doubted this truth because he has never signed up for their "rewards program". Good to know they have one but that doesn't mean we haven't been referring them. So after going along with the upsell, paying more the appliance than we budgeted, taking a morning and afternoon off work needlessly and waiting two weeks to receive it, suffice it to say it was all a headache we didn't need. Their tagline should be "Aztec - where our employees only care enough to do the very least". read more

The Best Appliances & The Best Customer Service in San Diego! Great selection of Appliances too

I realized coming to Aztec Appliance twice in one week that Al a supposed Kitchen/Appliance Specialist in the back building-Outlet has HORRIBLE customer service. We came here on a Wednesday one hour before closing requesting for an AC/Heater combo Wall Unit to purchase. He had a full on temper tantrum when we walked in. He was very negative and saying no to everything we were asking. He said we don't carry those wall units here. We only carry portable ac units. I'm like that's not what your website, Ryan, or Curtis say. So when I showed that I was getting upset about his awful behavior... He started to give more information saying I can only help you if you know the dimensions, volt/amps, pattern of plug... etc. I had the dimensions, but I didn't have the other details. In my head, I'm like you couldn't tell us that calmly in the first place? So, I gave this dude the benefit of the doubt thinking okay it's the end of the work day for him, I'll come back another day at an earlier time with all the necessary information. Yea right..... Lol. We came back on a Saturday at around a 11:30 am with pictures and all the needed information that was requested. Aztec Appliance worker Al STILL met us with the same negative- can't help you- lazy attitude. I caught him in a lie saying I showed you the ac wall units we have here last time as he sat and just pointed. I said no, you said you didn't carry these units here. Could you believe there were 2 units sitting on shelves he didn't even care to show us last time? After these terrible encounters here.....My intuition was saying don't buy from this place especially with the type of negative energy this guy is giving. I'm not sure what his issue is, but the company needs to retrain him on customer service basic etiquette, how to not get complacent in a job, and cultural diversity. read more

I had a few hiccups with my product and deliveries with Aztec, but they were addressed in a very professional manner by Curtis, who was just amazing at coordinating replacements and re-delivery.

I was very pleased with the end result! Thank you Aztec for your diligence and hard work! read more

After 22 years my Kitchen Aid built-in refrigerator broke. With 7 guests in the house, I made the emergency phone call to Aztec and my service advisor Jordon was extremely courteous and helpful, and invited me in to fix the problem. I ended up purchasing a beautiful sub-zero, thanks to her expertise on the advantages of such a great appliance. A bit more expensive than a Kitchen Aid, but you get what you pay for. Also received a $1,000 rebate, which was nice. We love the sub-zero, and it was delivered the next day in perfect condition. Matches the rest of our stainless appliances perfectly. Really appreciate the fast and professional service by Aztec and Jordon. read more

Aztec Appliance - CL4250UFDID/S/P. Perfect match. The LED lighting is spectacular! - Appliances Near Me - San Diego, California

Bought a super fancy Italian Fulgor oven on the recommendation of Salesperson Kent. I wish I would have bought Bosch like did for all our other appliances. This was for our remodel in 2022. We had to replace the motherboard after two months and it's continued to have problems. Oh but wait nobody in San Diego can service them. And oh it's out of warranty. I feel totally scammed. I cant even use the oven the oven without it smelling like gas. Aztec doesn't even sell them anymore. Shame they cannot/will not help remedy the situation. They will sell you a lemon and not think twice. read more

Best service and kindness and delivery provided for my aunt when I came in with her. I believe Ryan helped us and his manager came in home both my aunt and I spoke with regarding the Bosch refrigerator. Thank you for your guises sincere authentic help as well as truly being a place that cares for customers and service as well as sincerely catering to the needs of the individual. My aunt was so delighted with her boss refrigerator. I can't even explain to you thank you for your service and your kindness.

Just bought our 5th major appliance (over a span of 10 months)from Curtis at Aztec Appliance. Curtis is just wonderful & goes above & beyond. He is very knowledgeable about the products they sell & is able to guide the consumer to the perfect "appliance fit" after he asks questions & listens to concerns. My husband & I are very picky & we were more than pleased with his help & guidance for each purchase. Additionally, I cannot say enough about Cesar & Carlos who were sent to install our 48" Sub Zero fridge. Not only were they very polite & professional; they were also adept at problem solving "on the spot". Such care was taken to protect our floors & counters & walkway. Cesar communicated exactly what needed to be done & how he & Carlos would proceed. The installation was tricky but we felt confident in the outcome because of the expertise of both Cesar & Carlos. This is an honest review from a picky consumer ! Everyone always takes the time to complain but rarely do people take the time to genuinely appreciate the work & professional quality of others. Hands down I would recommend the team at Aztec Appliances! read more

I recently purchased a dishwasher . The entire process was easy and speedy.

Person answering the phone was quick to answer and kindly transferred me to the person they felt could help me select a new washing machine. That person seemed inconvenienced from the first few moments. I even tried to break the tension by sharing I wasn't sure if I was asking the right questions or if I needed to do more research on my own first. The first thing I asked was whether I might need to replace both W&D. She gave me an absolute answer that I would need to replace both my washer and dryer since I have them stacked. I asked a further clarifying question to makes sure I understood, then asked if she could help me pick replacements. Her comment was that I'd need to know type, features, size, price range, etc. I did know; I wanted to replace like for like and had my current make/model/part number and specs open in front of me. That information didn't suffice (evidently), so I wrapped up the call in under 5 minutes. I've since gotten the help I needed elsewhere. When I shared the same info at another company, they told me about two solid options. In less than 10 minutes I had the replacement selected and was getting my order placed/scheduled for delivery. read more

If I could give a "zero", I would because that was the amount of customer service I received. No one approached me on the show floor after walking around for about 10 minutes. When I went up to the counter, the "kitchen specialist" Curtis, showed very little interest. I had brought the manual from my old microwave for comparison. When I held it up, he told me that wouldn't tell him anything. He did tell me the model I was interested in was not in stock and would have to be ordered. I inquired about delivery and installation charges and was told I would be given a phone number of "Al" who would handle delivery and installation and would pay him directly. I specifically chose Aztec Appliance based on their numerous positive reviews. I ended up going to Home Depot and finding a higher quality microwave with a lower delivery and installation cost. All of my appliances are aging and starting to need to be replaced. Aztec Appliance will be the last store I would ever consider. So sad for a local business to treat people this way. read more

I just wanted to give a five star review for the Customer Service I have received working with Suzy Dovel in the San Diego store. We had a very rough install of an over the range microwave and it actually needed a redo. Through this process Suzy made it as painless as possible with her availability and support. What a joy to be able to call on a human being and not a bot for answers and support especially a human like Suzy. read more

Aztec Appliance was a winner from start to finish. I had to order an appliance for my Coronado condo and was out of town. I decided to use Aztec because I was hoping it would be better than dealing with a big box store. My hunch was right. From the start in sales with Adrian, I was treated with professionalism, thoughtfulness and personalized care If you want service, Adrian provides. Being out of town and not being able to walk in and choose the product and then be there for installation can be problematic. I was able to be on the same page (on-line) with Adrian thus knew exactly what model etc. I was purchasing. On the delivery and installation end, my life was made so much better with Chester, the delivery/installation pro. In fact, there were some issues but Chester handled the situation with flawless execution. I was not aware that the dishwasher needed a dedicated electrical outlet. The existing one shared a box w/garbage disposal. Chester updated me and then took care of doing the job properly. He also kept his boss and the salesman, Adrian, in the loop. I don't normally take the time to do this but Aztec made such an impression on me (1800 miles away) that I wanted to share. 25 years ago they outfitted our entire kitchen and they still espouse the same business, installation and customer service as they did so many years ago. I highly recommended Aztec and hope your experience is as good as mine. M. Anderson read more

Terrible service! They sell you a refrigerator, you pay in full, and they deliver it without the panels and handles. How is it possible to pay $20,000 for a Sub-Zero and have to wait over a month for the parts? They also schedule a delivery and then don't show up. It's a shame that this is the only place in San Diego that carries these refrigerators. When you call customer service, instead of being helpful and courteous after such a big purchase, they don't assist you, and you end up feeling scolded after waiting a long time on the line. read more

Cyndi and Jordan were amazing and helped me select new kitchen and laundry appliances. They were friendly, personable and provided excellent customer service.

Matthew, the installer, did a great job installing the new appliances in my very small condo. I highly recommend Aztec Appliance! read more
