Last week, my Bosch refrigerator stopped working. I was in a crunch for time, so I decided to try…read moreto call an expert for help. Finding a firm to work on Bosch equipment wasn't very easy. Those that claimed to work on Bosch branded appliances either wanted ridiculous service call or labor rates, and/or didn't have availability for a visit for week and a half. I was lucky to find Elite. Elite offered same day service, and an affordable service call charge that they wrap into their labor charges if you choose to follow through with the repair. Cesar was my service contact, and was very easy to work with. He quickly diagnosed the fridge's problem, and had the refrigerator working the next day after getting the part. Can't ask for better than that. I would highly recommend Elite, and would use them again if I found myself in a similar situation.

His service and professionalism were top notch and he made a follow-up visit the following week to get the repair done correctly.

The result was a new dryer vent pipe and exterior vent replacement. I would highly recommend.

That's before I noticed a couple of problems. First, they sent 2 men to do a 1 hr. job. They charged me $2400.00 - PIRATES!! Three days after they left I attempted to install the hose (for the hot), that connects the shut off with the utility sink. There was a problem. The shut off was DEFECTIVE and missing threads. It leaked. I called another plumber to fix it because I did NOT TRUST these men. Also, the copper pipe that comes out of the wall that has the other shut off on it is directly sitting on the drywall. I brought this to the "supervisor's" attention at the time and he stated it was no big deal. IT IS A BIG DEAL. These folks do SLOPPY WORK. DO NOT HIRE. On 3/23, I went into their office to show them photos of the problems and request a partial refund. Michael, the Operations Mgr stated he would get back to me. It's 3/27 and I have not heard from him. NO INTEGRITY!! DO NOT DO BUSINESS with GOODE PLUMBING!!!!

I thought I would check out Park Ridge Vacuum, which had some positive feedback from community members. It was the right choice; it exemplifies all that is great about small business: personal service from real knowledgable experts in their product. Rosemary is the owner of Park Ridge Vacuum, along with her husband, and they've been here for decades. They carry several different brands. I was interested in a canister vacuum so she introduced me to Miele (which I learned is pronounced me-la) and Sebo. Both are exceptional brands, made in Germany. I hadn't heard of the latter, but it was a nice machine. It also had some cool hiding spaces for the accessories! That one came with a 10 year warranty and a turbo head for the price, and though I did consider it, ultimately I chose the Miele. It was competitively priced and has a 5 year warranty. Here at PRV, at least, they send you home with a box of bags. I love that the attachments are hidden in the body of the machine. It's relatively quiet, easy to operate, and the "park" function for the vacuum is really convenient. And as an unexpected bonus, my toddler didn't cower from the vacuum; this time she insisted on using it. The shop does repairs, too. They have a small parking lot on the south side of the building. They are worth the visit to get great service and get a product that will reliably last you decades.

She even threw in some freebies. They also do repair work here. 5 stars!

Felt like our 25 year old fridge was no longer at its best - taking long to cool to temp and over recent years needing to dial it to a higher setting to keep milk from going back early. Did get assigned a 4 to 6 p.m. window on Friday afternoon. Got a confirmation just before 6 p.m. that Ian was on his way. Glad that Ian made it - he determine that our fridge coils really needed cleaning in the back (I've only cleaned underneath regularly and only discovered recently that there was a lot to clean on the back, which I did just the exterior. He took care of the insides I think near the coil and compressor and determined that our starter was fading. I think it was 1.5 hrs of work and parts for $250. May seem like a lot, but perfect for us to keep a 27 year GE fridge running as well as it has been. We'll know now to have the fridge cleaned when performance dips rather than bumping the setting colder.
