You can tell he cares about the craft and about keeping these machines alive. The whole place is full of typewriters and I can't wait to add a cursive one to my collection at some point. My Olivetti typewriter came back working beautifully, and the turnaround was quicker than I expected. Super friendly, trustworthy, and worth every penny! Highly recommend if you've got a typewriter that needs some love.

Nightmarish experience with Mr. Schultz and Rees Electronics. I brought in my 1940's Smith Corona…read morefor a tune up and ribbon change. The case was flawless. When I came back to pick it up, I was shocked to see it lying on its side on the floor in front of his counter. When he gave it back onto me, there were several scratches on the case! This beautiful machine had somehow made it nearly 80 years without a scratch-- that is, until I had the misfortune of trusting Mr. Schultz with it. To make matters worse, he denied he had caused the scratches, even when I showed him photos that I had taken of the typewriter before I brought it in for servicing. He ultimately bought the type from me, but not before screaming vulgarities at me. What a surreal and hellish experience it was dealing with this guy.

It only took a little over a week and he charged a reasonable rate for everything. I tipped him a little bit just because I really appreciate his craft and that there is still a typewriter repair guy open locally. The storefront is hard to find as the signage is faded away, but he IS still here and OPEN for business. I never had a hard time finding him in the store (even on a Saturday), but I would call first to make sure he is in the in just to make sure. Some reviews say the shop is in a shady area, but I am Long Beach born and bred and I urge you not to let these reviews deter you. It's a little working class shop and in a working class neighborhood. Great little shop and a wonderful typewriter repair guy! Thank you, Gary!

I had a great experience with Framed in Montrose…read more On short notice, my sisters tasked me with getting a photo of one of our younger brothers enlarged to 10x14 and framed. Sadly this framed photo was needed for his funeral. My wife and I met with Adam and explained our situation. We had one week before the services. Adam understood quickly our needs and promptly found the gold colored wood and matting that worked with the photo we had with us. That photo was on my phone. We selected the frame and matting and placed our order. For the actual photo, he sent us a few blocks away to Color Zone to meet with Garo for the enlargement of the photo. Within two hours, Garo had the enlarged photo that we then took to Adam. He promised us the framed photo in four days and actually had it ready in three. The framed photo was beautiful and was displayed prominently at his memorial services. Thank you Adam and his father, Frank for their kindness during a difficult time for me and my family.

We used to go to Michaels for framing our canvases and pictures, but this time we decided to…read moresupport a local framing business in our area. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a very disappointing experience. We brought two canvases to be framed and were told they would be ready in about two weeks. When we picked them up and got home, we noticed that one of the frames was not level and had a noticeable bump/defect. We immediately returned it and asked them to fix it. What was most disappointing was the customer service. Instead of simply apologizing and taking responsibility, they seemed surprised that they had missed the problem and started blaming someone else. There was no genuine apology or even a simple "sorry" for the inconvenience. We were told it would be fixed the next day. After three days, we had to call them ourselves because nobody contacted us. The employee then told us it was ready. When I finally picked it up, the worker didn't even acknowledge the problem or offer an apology. For a business that charges a significant amount for framing, I expected much better quality control and, more importantly, much better customer service. Unfortunately, this experience left a very bad impression. We tried to support a local business instead of going to a larger chain, but based on our experience, we will not be going back. I hope the owner takes this feedback seriously, because a quality framing business should stand behind its work and treat customers with respect when something goes wrong.

I used to go to Crest Office Furniture when Taylor Hurst with Taylor Hurst as my salesperson - and…read morehe was great at helping me set up my office furniture. He left late this summer, so another salesman stepped in for my next project. Talk about a disaster: no follow-through, inaccurate information, upping an existing quote when none of the specs changed, long delays not only in performing but just in getting information and returning calls; reliance on email and never getting it "right" withoutt even thinking to call; and to top it all off, an owner who upon hearing what was going wrong just blew off the feedback entirely. But all is not lost: Taylor Hurst moved to MIchael E. Powers and Associates - which carries virtually all the same lines of office furniture AND as Taylor is showing me, can customize furniture and orders in ways that Crest either never could or never would bother to try. Powers now has my business - and I would recommend to Crest customers and to those looking for a great office furniture resource that you look to MIchael E. Powers - and Taylor - for great service and great results.

Possibly 1 star. Anderson Tech came to our office to fix a…read morelaser printer that was creating black streaks along the side of our statements due to the drum. The tech worked for about 30 minutes and said that he fixed it. This service call fee was $165.00; a reasonable fee. The black streaks continued and got progressively worse over the next month. We called Anderson again and the same tech came out and did the same thing. It is still not properly fixed and they charged another $165.00. The first charge I understand; however, when the repair does not work, I don't think we should be charged in full again. Anderson refused to modify the charge.

BEST FRAME AND FURNITURE REPAIR SHOP EVER!!!…read more I was hesitant to go here because it was new but WOW am I glad I did. The man who runs this shop, Arthur, is one of the most professional and knowledgeable businessmen I have met. He listened to me carefully and did exactly what I was hoping for but 10x better than I had expected and he charged me much less than everyone else I had called prior to visiting Arthur's place. I highly recommend his business because his attentional to detail is second to none and his craftsmanship is unmatched. He repaired furniture for me to a level that was better than brand new. His quality of work is amazing! Again, thank you so much ART's Frame Shop, I give this place an A+++. Highly recommended!!!
