great products and competitive prices on computers - especially their own product line. Lack of phone number access, phone menu no longer works when you do find the number. Website doesn't answer all the questions. Service needs to improve. read more

No issues to say with this MC location. The staff are all super responsive and readily-available and the products I've been on the lookout for are reasonably in stock. The only critique I have for this location is sometimes, drops are only available if you ask staff directly, which is fine, but there's sometimes no signage indicating that the product is available in the back. Aside from that, a great store with some great staff. read more

Got a used SSD the turned out to be bad. They understood how annoying that was and replaced it with a brand new one. Manager was nice and general manager was cool as well. read more

This microcenter shocked me, it was like Best Buy had a baby! Easy to find things, the staff is very helpful. Gives you a sticker at the end so they can get credit! read more

Went here to buy a Raspberry Pi Pico starter kit and some other embedded-related stuff, despite the long drive. The employees I met were very friendly, chill, & legitimately helpful. (Thanks, Maddie!). Appeared to have a generous return policy. Also, it was neat to get a chance to see some of the Lian Li ATX wood finished cases in person, as they are something I've been interested in for awhile (if RAM prices ever go down enough to do a build, anyway... lol.) Honestly, this place was great. Does your neighborhood Best Buy have soldering irons? Yeah, I didn't think so. Will certainly be making the drive for tech related purchases in the future. read more

Bought a 2.5k+ OLED Laptop, and had to exchange twice. First time was defective but 2nd time I just couldn't get use to the reflective screen. End up returning the laptop. Folks here did not give me a hard time like at Bestbuy. Better price, and better service than Bestbuy any day. read more

Great business! Honest practices, great pricing, service associates, etc! They have optical media, DVD and BluRay blank disks, drives and PC cases with them. They still sell print magazines! Keep up the great work and standing behind the products and services you sell! read more

What can I say? I've been here MANY times, and it's one of those spots that you aren't accustomed to, a heaven of hardware. With that being said, expect to drool on your first visit. Think of a best buy, but dedicated to hardware only. GPUs, CPUs, Mobos, PSU's, Cases, Printers, 3D Printers, Monitors, EVERY cable possible, Headsets, Pre-Builts, Tech Lounge, PDUs, Mics, Lighting, Laptops, Networking, Keyboards, Mouses, and soooo much more! The staff is shaped to sell, for what you're interested in, they're not pushy, but helpful. So expect experience, and friendly helpers. No one is going to push you to buy anything, but if you inquire, they'll know exactly what they're talking about and show you the right direction if you need it. read more

There was not anything micro about this center. Gizmos shining as far as the eye can see. Fad gadgets blinking from the furthest recesses of the building. A whole section of the center dedicated to computer repair & maintenance. This is a jumbo gigantic techno dome. Okay. Let me try again. Think of an IKEA, but for technology. Throw in a surprisingly knowledgeable & pleasant floor staff. Add all the most marketable new and used PCs, screens, phones, and IT on the planet, and you've got Micro Center. As for my experience, some college kid sold me a used Macbook for a reasonable price. I plugged it in on site at their computer repair/check up area, and then I slipped out the sliding doors. I would go back to Micro Center just to slip out those sliding doors again. I don't believe good exit doors get the praise they deserve in most commercial settings. read more

Way, way overdue at around 10+ years old, it was finally time to build a new pc. RIP Fry's!!! Had heard for a long time about this place being the closest alternative inventory-wise but such a drive (about an hour each way). Nevertheless, if you want the in-store experience of building your own custom PC, this is your place! It's HUGE (imagine an entire aisle of keyboards)... very overwhelming so come with a plan! I came with my tech savvy friend and between the both of us, we went to the side of the store that is specifically dedicated to PC building. I can't remember my associate's name, but he answered all of our questions and helped us chose every necessary and wanted component, showing options with each, and making sure we had holds on the last items as it was memorial day weekend. He probably spent around 45 minutes with us, but I left with the most powerful computer I've ever had, ready for work and play. But also, spent the most I've ever spent on a system, haha. It's worth it as these components would be the same or more online, then have to wait and hope that nothing gets broken when shipped, etc. Staff was so helpful at checkout and because of this purchase, it was double checked by a manager which I really appreciated. I wish there was a closer location to Los Angeles, we desperately need something like this (especially since Fry's is gone). It's a very cut and dry store (no personality lol) , but I love the variety of inventory ready to buy off the shelves. Definitely worth the trip if you're planning on getting a lot of electronics. read more

Thank you to Jacob and ben for making my experience awesome! Jacob's expertise and perfect part picking made the process of putting the whole thing together simple. He picked the correct fans for the right placement! He answered all my emails when I had questions. Ben streamlined and make this process so easy! He took great care of me! Looking forward to coming back! read more

A computer builders dream location. IYKYK, but there is so much more. 3d printers and other items as such are on the rise here at MC. Always crowded, but that is to be expected. Love the DIY PC build section, but never have tried it. read more

Of all the stores and businesses I frequent this has to be the highest consistent level of customer satisfaction I have received over the seven years I've been shopping there. Every single person you run into this store treats you like you're important, no matter how small to purchase. Tonight I had the guy at the register, shaking my hand and in introduced himself and thanked me for coming, have you ever experienced that at a retail store or any store for that matter? read more

Mason has helped me yet again -- and I couldn't be more impressed! On my very first Magic: The Gathering Final Fantasy release, Mason went absolutely ABOVE AND BEYOND to make sure I got my collector box. I was number 6 in line, and the store only had 6 collector boxes total. Thanks to Mason's care and attention, I walked away with mine -- which meant the world to me since it was my first overnight campout for a release. (Final fantasy is also my favorite IP and I love playing MTG so this was a must have!) Fast forward to this prerelease: no camping required thanks to the store's fantastic stock, and Mason not only recognized me, but also made the whole experience smooth and friendly from start to finish. He even took the time to walk me through other MTG products, so now I know where I'll be grabbing my sleeves from, too! Huge shoutout to Will, the store manager, for the way these events are organized. Everything runs so well that it turns a product release into a genuinely fun community experience. Thanks to Mason, Will, and the Micro Center team, this store has officially become my go-to home for all things Magic read more

I came in to get my computer fix minor stuff just plastic part broke and had to replace it as I was here I've decided to upgrade my CPU and as the tech working on my computer he told he had to update the bios as well and after that my computer mother board did not survive the update which is considered broken as far as I know, me having WARRanty I insist to get a new unit of computer and I will pay the difference, all of sudden they said it doesn't work that way. So and so my warranty is different from the time I bought it from the next when I renew my warranty. It doesn't make sense how would a customer know that there is a different computer warranty. read more

Wonderful experience today!! I was looking for a quality keyboard for my new remote job but have had no luck buying them online. I didn't know a place like this existed that has SO many different keyboards to try before you buy them. I feel so bad I did not get the name of the man who helped us but he was so kind, informative, and helpful. I thought I had made up my mind but he recommended I check out one I had not seen and it ended up being my favorite! My younger brother is a big gamer and would absolutely love this place. We're looking forward to bringing him back to check it out! Huge fans! read more

I brought two computers here with an appointment and had a really disappointing experience. First, I had a laptop covered under AppleCare. Just two days earlier, I went to an Apple Store in California where they replaced my charger at no cost and told me that if the cable still didn't work, I could return to have it swapped. Sure enough, the cable didn't charge my computer, but when I came here, I was told I would have to purchase a replacement cable. Second, I brought in my desktop. Instead of even opening it up to take a quick look, they wanted to charge me $80 just to open it and keep it for five hours. At the actual Apple Store, they open the computer in front of me, check it right away, and usually do a basic diagnostic within 15 minutes. The contrast in service was huge. The staff here weren't helpful, didn't follow the AppleCare process, and overall the customer service was terrible. I left feeling frustrated and with no solutions. read more

Technology Heaven!!! I have not felt this excited to visit a store since the old Fry's Electronics days. They have computer parts in abundance! What I really like about Micro Center is that their employees are knowledgeable about the products they sell. Employees also like to talk tech and share their experiences with computer build parts, networking equipment, surveillance, etc.... They offer great computer bundles if you are looking at building a new computer, and also offer upgrade paths if you want to upgrade to more powerful components. The bundle components are tested to ensure they will work without issues. If you have never built a computer, they do offer services to help you build it or build it entirely for you. It's a shame that this location is so far away from where I live, but probably for the best since I would most likely visit this place very often and spend a ton of money. read more

I'm really disappointed with my experience at Micro Center. I placed an order for a monitor and received an email saying it was ready for pickup. I drove about an hour to the store, only to be told that they didn't actually have it in stock. Staff checked multiple times but still couldn't locate the item, which made the whole trip feel like a complete waste of time. To make things worse, the supervisor suggested I purchase a used/open-box monitor for the same price as a brand-new one. That didn't feel like a reasonable solution at all. read more

This is definitely a place for technology interested people. The aisles are jam packed with stuff (actually feels tight, overwhelming and a bit claustrophobic). Trying to get help is a big challenge- you literally need to wave someone down and have a lot of time to wait. Don't come if you are in a hurry. Their prices are not as competitive as they once were. I probably won't be back. read more

Came I. To find some ram cause somehow my ram stick blew out. Not sure if it was the psu or my I 9 14900k that's being a turd... Anyways had this one guy give me a ram that requested and went along the way. While in line I noticed the ram he gave me was the same one that broke... Long story short I went to talk to another rep.... ANTHONY M. Give this guy a raise... he went above and beyond. Explained the difference between cl... and on top of that recommended a better bundle cause he knew the history of Intel breaking on people..... Told.me if that didn't work to just check out this bundle. Smart guy. Thanks Anthony M. read more

Once you leave the story it is literally impossible to get in touch with a human. Sales guy stapled his card to the order form, told us to contact him. Checkout took the form; no problem, I'll just call the store and get the sales guy's info. Been on hold with the national line for 30 minutes now and the online chat even longer and there's no update for how soon before I can talk to someone. Hate this. read more

I've had good experiences with Microcenter. It's great to have a brick and mortar tech specialist store. The employees are very friendly and helpful. The store policies are generally good. -1 star is due to the 15 day return window (less than industry standard 30 day) and the lack of integration on the website vs in person (For example, online reporting of in store stock tracking is pretty mediocre and can't be relied on). Aside from that, it's a great store. read more

Walked around for an hr looking to buy a laptop and no employee approached me. This store has a gross scent as well.

Josh is an amazing supervisor he helped me solve my problem faster than I knew the severity of it. Josh is Cost effective and friendly you could invite him over for dinner after 5 minutes. Thats how much i recommend his service and expertise. Great location and great staff with knowledgeable history read more

Personally, I am a woman who thrives in creative spaces. I love art, history, literature, and all things absent of math. Unfortunately, we live in a modern world where AI will inevitably gain consciousness, and humanity will fall into a subservient format where we will exist only to aid robots in their galaxy wide take-over. In the meantime, I need a substantial amount of help with the little technology that I currently rely on in my daily life. Such as this very laptop from which I'm typing to you now. Recently I discovered the wonders of Microcenter. A magical land of gadgets and gizmos stretching as far as the eye can see. Greater technology than I could have imagined in my wildest dreams line every aisle in a meticulous order. You may be thinking "Jade. With your completely rational fear of technology and utter lack of knowledge, what could you possibly need from such a place?" This is an excellent question, my friends, and I will tell you. Wizards work there. They live like knights ready to defend a robot kingdom behind a bar build to assist fools such as myself. You simply approach the bench, add your information to their list, and wait for them to call you. Come to them with any inquiry and they will help you at a totally reasonable price. They can assist you with anything from a malfunctioning motherboard to building your own PC. While you await your fate, fearing for your device's life, they send you consistent text updates with a diagnosis, their approach to correcting the issue, and when you're ready for pick-up. I've never been so at ease in a space where I've historically felt incompetent and uncomfortable. So, while we wait for our time as rulers of technology to come to a static halt, we can rely upon the righteous and noble folks fighting the good fight at Microcenter to help us with our tech issues. read more

I took 2 towers and 1 laptop---all of which were decades old--in to the store to retrieve data, pictures, files....I had no power cords, password were long since forgotten and zero idea of what or how much was stored on the hard drives. I asked to have any data transferred so that I could access whatever was on the devices---mainly hoping to find old photos of my kids as babies and toddlers. The customer services reps were AMAZING and understanding. They kept me informed with text updates and within 7 hours, I was told I could come in and get the 1TB external hard drive with all of the data transferred! It could not have been any easier to do! Why did I wait so long to take care of this? HIGHLY recommend, especially for people like me who don't know anything about computers or language of the discipline. Thanks, MicroCenter; my kids are thrilled to finally see pictures of themselves as wee ones! read more

I've not gone into the store twice, and every single person has gone above and beyond with me in the most perfect way possible I want to mention Chad today for helping me. He was great and also I had somebody else recently who had helped me, but I can't remember in this exact moment. The whole store is clean. They have cool things to do while you're shopping and they also have great prices. Everything's amazing everyone should come into Micro Center once in their life. read more

A HUGE new fan. I love their online pickup scheduling process. It is user friendly, and no CC is required until paying in the store. My techie friend picked my box and monitor and I setup the order online. Store staff were cordial and efficient. The ProSpec box has me back fully engaged in my creative writing and at a fair price. The setup at home was super easy even for this occasionally tech challenged writer. read more

One of the few stores left in CA. I like coming here for all my school supply and electronic needs. You can customize your own PC as well.

I like how there's several different kinds of mouses or keyboards or headphones to choose from. There's also some good sales during the holiday so a good place to check out for your electronic needs. Located near 55 Freeway and on Edinger Blvd. read more

this place is a bit cramped but they have good prices and it's fun to shop around. they also price matched a few items on occasion. one complaint: i came here twice recently to pick up and was assisted by the same person both times. their breath could be smelt from across the desk and even standing further back. it was genuinely bizarre. i dont really know what management can do about things like personal hygiene but that stench is really enough to put me off coming back entirely. yes. in the nicest way possible, it really was that bad. either slap a mask on them or ask them to correct it please read more
