NOT RECOMMEDED!!
I had a very sporadic issue with my front loading washer being full of water when empty or not draining at the end of a cycle. After 3 or 4 times of opening the door and getting a bath, I called Metro Appliance on the recommendation of a friend.
Without even looking at the washer, they diagnosed the problem over the phone as being a leaky water valve (shouldn't I have heard water running or dripping if this was the case?).
After rescheduling my appointment 3 times, they fianlly sent an elderly repairman (near 70) to my house who did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to diagnose the cause of the problem. I don't know if the part was really needed or if it was (as a friend later suggested) something stuck in the drain pipe that was keeping it from emptying completely.
Instead the repairman swore repeatedly (and I mean loudly and offensively!) as he wrestled the washer out of place to replace the valve. He also swore at architects, plumbers and builders for putting laundry rooms in tight spaces. He did not let me keep the replaced part so I could have it checked out by Sears, and when I asked him if he was sure that was the problem and he said "I don't know, I hope so." So I paid $155.10 for hope?? Let's just say my confidence in his repair is pretty low and I will never have them into my home ever again. read more
