    Taha ..

    I recently hired OC Electric to install a Level 2 EV charging outlet in my garage, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. From A to Z, Ruben and his team were an absolute pleasure to work with. The pricing was reasonable and straightforward with no surprises, and they used top-notch, high-quality materials throughout the installation. As an electrical engineer, I have a keen eye for clean, code-compliant work, and I can confidently say that Ruben and his crew are true professionals. The conduit routing, junction box placement, and overall finish turned out exceptionally neat and robust. If you're looking for honest, skilled electricians who deliver top-tier craftsmanship, I highly recommend OC Electric!

    The owner "Reuben" answers the phone for appointments making this personal. I had many questions to the point of annoyance and Reuben kept his cool. (Seems like a cool dude) An upgrade to my electrical panel by another electrician became a problem. After not passing permit and 2 months no fixes I switched to O.C. electric who took care of every detail. Joel and another Reuben worked so hard with perfection. Really did a clean thorough job. I highly recommend "O.C. ELECTRIC".

    5-Star Review I recently hired OC Electric to install a high-end chandelier, and I couldn't be happier with the results. The installation was done professionally, safely, and with great attention to detail. They handled the chandelier with care and made sure everything was perfectly aligned and secure. Their pricing was also very reasonable, especially for the quality of work and level of expertise they provided. It's rare to find a company that delivers both excellent service and fair pricing. I highly recommend OC Electric to anyone looking to install a chandelier or any electrical work. Truly a top-notch electrical company!

    Had Ruben out today from OC Electric to install this fan light in my kitchen and a Ring doorbell. Very professional, super quick. And they laid out plastic to cover everything for quick and easy clean up. Very reasonable pricing. Appointment was set for sometime between noon and 2pm today. They arrived just before noon and were done within 30 minutes. Well worth the price! Highly recommend.

    I wanted to give my honest review for OC Electric. Please know that this review is not a fake or paid review. Let me say first of all that these guys are the real deal. Before deciding to use OC Electric to replace our electric panel, I had no less then 6 quotes from electricians, including some with really good Yelp reviews. 5 out of the 6 businesses that I reached out to each had some serious issues that made me realize what a difference there are in the way companies like this do business. I kept detailed notes on each company and OC Electric was the only one who didn't have any negative issues as far as I was concerned. First, it's important to understand that for the most part, upgrading an electric panel is for the most part, going to be the same process for all of these electricians, so, to begin with all of them will give you a basic quote with just texting the company basic info and some pictures of the existing panel. This is not like the "old days" where a business will come out, look at the job and give you a price. After texting Ruben some pictures of my existing panel, we set up a time for him to come and give me a formal quote. The price was in line with what most of the other businesses and we decided to move forward with OC Electric. He handled all of the permits necessary in a very timely manner so that there would be no delays in starting the work. He texted me the day and time that they would arrive to start the job. For a big job like this, there are always concerns that during the process, unknown issues would be uncovered which lead to unexpected problems and costs. We've all heard the horror stories (and seen on those home improvement shows) right? Thank God there was nothing like that during this process for us. Keep in mind that we were replacing the original electric panel from when the house was built sometime back in 1963. A LOT of things have changed with electricity in the last 63 years. Mainly the size of these panels. I had no idea that today's panels are about 5 times bigger than my old one. On the first day, two OC Electric technicians showed up right on time and got right to work. They began at around 8 AM and finished around 6 PM on the first day. By the time they left that first day, all of our electricity was working perfectly and each breaker switch for the new 200 Amp electric panel was clearly labeled. The technicians who worked at my house that day were courteous, and professional and they cleaned up any mess made from the work. These guys went above and beyond. In fact, on day 1 when they stopped to take their lunch break, one of the guys even offered to bring me back some lunch! Wow, how many hired workers do that? None that I know of. I also had a small separate wiring job that I had started myself (but never completed) and asked if they could take care of, and guess what? They did it for me in about 10 minutes. I was so grateful to them. For this process there are a few steps involved, each one requiring an inspection and an approval from the city. First, the initial installation of the new panel, then inspection. Next was repairing the stucco. New chicken wire around the panel must be attached, then inspection. Next, stucco and paint, then final inspection. By the way, for our job I had told OC Electric that we didn't require painting because we are planning on getting the house painted anyway, but they insisted and the stucco guy did a pretty good job at matching the stucco texture. The paint color he used was slightly different, but for me, it didn't matter because of the future paint job. The entire process took about a week due to the inspections that needed to be scheduled, which can be a hassle because you're at the mercy of the city inspector. Scheduling all of the inspections was handled by Ruben and he was always good at keeping me updated as to when each inspection would take place. Except for the initial inspection, someone from OC Electric was here to meet the inspector each time. Aside from a couple minor aesthetic details, (which can't be avoided because of all of the new electric codes involved) I was very satisfied with the work that OC Electric performed and I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for an electrician. If I have any more electrical work in the future, I won't hesitate to give them a call.

    This is what EV charging should look like…read more As a Tesla owner, I've charged at a lot of stations over the years, and Rove is by far one of the nicest charging facilities I've been to. The first thing that stood out was the size of the station. There are 40 DC fast chargers, including 27 Tesla chargers, so finding an available charger wasn't an issue. The entire facility feels modern, clean, and thoughtfully designed with large solar canopies providing shade over the charging stalls. What really separates Rove from a typical charging stop is everything else they offer. There's a ReCharge by Gelson's market with snacks, drinks, and fresh food, a comfortable lounge with free Wi-Fi, clean restrooms, a car wash, complimentary vacuums, and even a water bottle filling station. It feels more like a premium travel stop than a charging station. I especially appreciated the little details. The property was spotless, there was security on site, and the complimentary vacuums were a nice touch. The facility feels safe, well-maintained, and welcoming whether you're stopping for 15 minutes or a longer charge. The location is also convenient right off the 5 Freeway, making it an easy stop while traveling through Orange County. As EV adoption continues to grow, this is exactly the type of charging experience I'd like to see more of. Plenty of chargers, great amenities, clean facilities, and a comfortable place to spend your charging time. If you're an EV owner and haven't checked out Rove yet, it's worth the stop.

    Lots to like here in this 3 in 1 EV charging station, car wash and mini-market…read more The EV charging is plentiful and well well utilized certainly does not ever get completely full so there are always charging spots available every single time I've been here. I will say that compared to some local places the $10 car wash is really not a great deal for the short little wash compared to other places where a full use any time membership can be had for the cost of three visits here Getting back to the positives, the market is very well stocked with lots of great items and generally most people will find an abundance here of anything they're looking for, but I'm not necessarily sure that everything here is geared toward the typical demographic of EV user and for that matter even the brand of Gelson's. Coffee options are frankly awful and there are lots of premade foods which aren't really so much grab and go but also take home so I kind of question that as well as the typical 711 style hot dog set up. The highlight here is the very comfortable lounge area with plentiful seating, which is kept immaculately clean as well as the bathrooms, which are well-maintained. Overall, this is certainly superior to just parking at EV Charger in a basic shopping center or isolated parking lot and with maybe a few tweaks it could become something excellent but even as it is, it is very good and I still highly recommend it.

He was responsive, did a great job installing the 220 line and gave me a fair and honest price. And on top of that is a very nice guy. I recommend him very highly.

When I said Lake Forest and yes to the only thing needing a fix, he said he would come by in about an hour. When he came he immediately went to work on the switch and in less than a minute the lights were back on, but the lights were flashing on and off. This was a problem before the lights stopped coming on altogether. He switched some of the light bulbs with other working lights in the hallway and they worked in the kitchen and began flashing in the hallway. To that, Eric determined that the flashing lightbulbs were "crap", recommended getting some new light bulbs to replace those that flashed. It wasn't the switch that was faulty but the lights themselves. Eric said that he would not charge me anything for his work that day which was so generous and appreciated by me. You don't find people like that anymore. As it turns out he has family living in my neighborhood. He also gave me some advice on another outdoor light that we are repairing. Can't say enough good things about Eric.

The important thing to know is that if you come during the holidays or on a weekend, it will be busy. The good thing is, as long as you don't mind parking on the very upper levels and walking a bit, I've always been able to find parking. But if you don't like walking at all, this probably isn't the center for you, and there's a lot of walking if you want to explore everything! What I love about this center is that you have everything from Nordstrom to Target, literally! You can find some very unique restaurants, along with typical chains, so there's something for everyone. We'll occasionally see a movie here as well, but that's another review. What impresses me the most is how well-maintained and clean everything is. Even the elevators in the parking garages are graffiti-free, which is very unusual. Now, not all the locations have maintained their interiors as well, but that's on them and not the Irvine Spectrum. My favorite time to come is still in December. We've always found the night atmosphere to have a lot of great energy. And yes, there are a lot of teens who hang around and have loud fun; they're harmless and add to the energy.

There is a significant buildup of dust, dirt, hair/lint and debris along the refrigerator case, shelves, vents and edges--right next to food that customers are expected to purchase and take home to their families. Some areas look like they have not been thoroughly cleaned in a very long time. This isn't a small spill that happened five minutes ago. The amount of accumulated dirt visible in these pictures raises serious questions about how frequently these refrigerated cases are being inspected and deep-cleaned. Target is a major national retailer, and customers should be able to expect a clean and sanitary environment, especially anywhere food is stored and displayed. I'm posting these photos because management needs to see the condition customers are seeing. I hope Target takes this seriously, inspects the entire refrigerated-food area, cleans it properly, and makes sure it is maintained going forward.
