Have used Ralph's Maytag for over 10 years for maintenance and repair of both our washer & dryer. Bob Abernathy, the founder's son, comes out within 24 hours, knows immediately what is needed and usually able to make repair within 15 minutes. Sometimes, not frequently, he has to order parts that are not on his truck. He knows his product inside and out. Does not fumble. Fixes, gives us the reasonable bill, accepts payment, and is on his way. If we desire to chat he will as he is extremely friendly, but we respect each other's time. Only wish he could replicate himself for the other appliances in our home. read more

Bob just came to my home to replace the belts on my Maytag washer. Bob has been coming to my home to service my Maytags for decades. I purchased both my washer and dryer from him years ago. There's just not a better, nicer or more dependable person out there than Bob. Thanks, Bob, for a job well done as usual, and I"m glad you're still out there doing the great work you do! read more

Called this place after reading reviews and because he's nearby to my house. My dryer had gone out unexpectedly. Bob came out the next day, fixed it quickly at what I believe was probably the best price possible, and then chatted with us about his racing after seeing my Harley. He gave my wife some tips on how to better use the dryer and gave me a small poster from his racing. Great service, great guy. I kinda hope I need his help again. read more

Bob did a very thorough job inspecting my washer dryer stack and installing them in my house. He was extremely patient in showing me everything that he was looking at and all of the potential vulnerabilities to keep an eye on in the future. Additionally, Bob is just an all around cool guy with a hot rodding alter ego (seriously though, ask him about it!). Highly recommended -- I am tempted to keep this old washer dryer alive just so that he can be my appliance service guy (because they don't make "real" Maytags anymore!"). read more

Bob just left my home after putting a refurbished motor in my 30 year old Maytag Stackable! He could not be any more knowledgeable, kindhearted and kindly priced. He explained everything and gave me great tips for how to get my clothes cleanest while not overloading my senior machine. Like others have shared, he talked about his racing life and gifted me with a really cool photo of his car and racing images. Bob is an old-school, amazing guy! read more

Bob is the best! I was having trouble finding a part for my Maytag dryer. Bob called back and said he had the part. When I came to get it, after a friendly conversation, he gave me the part for free! It was used he told me. The man knows his machines and is a truly honest repairman. Glad he is in Burbank. read more

I am seventy years old. I have had numerous service calls on Maytag products over the years but none as quickly and efficiently as Bob, owner of Ralph's Maytag Shop. He was here within an hour. Washing machine repaired in 20 minutes including testing for certainty and an entertaining conversation. His total fee was less than the price of a visit and estimate from others in the Glendale/Burbank area. One man shop and he cannot go everywhere so you are in luck if you live in his service area. read more

Bob is the real deal and as good as it gets. He's old school professional and isn't going to give you any bs. His depth of knowledge regarding Maytag is hard to fathom; decades of experience. I have an old Neptune and he tells me how it is. So far he has always been able to take care of the issue. He cautioned me that parts availability in the future may be an issue. No bs. read more

I've needed parts for my old Maytag dryer a couple of times over the past ten years. Both times, Ralph's had the genuine Maytag part in stock at a cheaper price than I expected. read more

Bob is amazing. Professional, dedicated, patient, and knowledgable. Highest possible recommendation.

Bob was awesome and informative - and has great stories - he even fixed a light for me while he was here!

First of all, Bob's number has changed. He can now be reached at (818) 720-3298. I can't say enough good things about him. I always go to him whenever I have problems with my aging Maytag washer/dryer and he freely gives advice on how to diagnose the problem and fix it. I prefer to get parts from him but if he doesn't have them, he refers me to a local source. He doesn't charge for his expert advice but I am compelled to send him something for his time as he has saved me hundreds of dollars by helping me to fix my appliances. read more

One of my best finds EVER! You won't find anyone you love more. Bob is honest, does quality work, and very knowledgeable. I've referred him to several friends in the area and they love him, too. Huge loss for me when I moved out of state. read more

The guy is a good b/s and know his b/s. He was at my less than ten minutes. Charge me an arms and legs. Never call him again . read more

I called Ralph's when the lint catcher broke on my dryer. Bob in parts talked me through what it took to get the part number and when he realized he didn't have one in stock, he provided me with the means to get it elsewhere ASAP. I was in no rush and it meant a lot to me that a business would want to help me get what I needed faster over making me wait while they ordered the part. So impressed and not in a rush, I had Bob order the part for me. He quoted two weeks for it to arrive and it came in under a week. He even called me from Jury Duty to make sure I got the message that it was in and would try to get it to me if he couldn't get out of jury duty. How very cool, how very professional, how very considerate! Oh ya, the part was sold to me at a very good price! read more

I once called here with dryer problems and Bob kindly advised me how to help the problem myself (cleaning outside vent). When I did have a legit repair needed he came out, was awesome and kind and fairly priced. read more

Bob is changing the name to Bob's Maytag, which is long overdue because Bob deserves all the credit and all the accolades one could possibly bestow upon a washing machine repairman. Incredibly knowledgable and accommodating, Bob will quickly and expertly fix whatever ails your washer or dryer. Fantastic! read more

Ralph was his father! Bob Muravez is the best thing that ever happened to Maytag. Several times when my washer or dryer went out, Bob came over, twice found it was only a loose wire. "What do I owe you," I'd asked. "Nothing!" he'd reply..."I was in the neighborhood!" Last time my dryer went out, Bob said it wasn't worth fixing. He sent me to another washer/dryer store in Burbank that gave me a discount on an exceptional new machine....and then told me that they had never even met Bob! When my Maytag washer went out I told Bob I'd just get new one. He admonished me to keep this one, that it was a genuine older and exceptional Maytag; then he repaired it and billed me the most ridiculous small charge. (Incidentally, he BUILT a new switch for our kitchen JenAir BBQ because the part was no longer available!) This is the most reputable repair man you'd ever be blessed to meet. Be aware that Ralph's Maytag Shop has a new name: Bob's Maytag Repair, at 818-720-3298. Phillip Barton Colonel, (Ret.) CA read more

If I could give a thousand stars I would. Bob is a master Maytag fixer/mechanic and I will always sing his praises! He fixed my 15 year old Maytag better than new. It has never run as efficienty as now. He is an honest man of integrity, completely reliable, courteous, totally professional and knows maytags inside and out. He is a delight to have in your home and has great life stories. He's also an expert on cacti and used to rescue greyhounds...not to mention he was also a famous racer driver. (How did he have time for all this you might ask? He's a Maytag repairman!) Bob is a true Renaissance Man and we're very lucky to have him in our community. Thank you so very very much, Bob, from this grateful client! read more

Bob fixed my 38year old dryer and it's like brand new. He said there were many original parts still in it. It was a great day. Thank you so much. read more

I called to have Bob come out to my house. I have a Maytag stackable washer/dryer that is 25 years old. He was able to help me over the phone and I was extremely appreciative. I would recommend him any time. read more

Bob - you made my day! And you fixed my dryer! Such a pleasure to meet you and learn some things about Burbank history. You rock.

Our Maytag Neptune dryer stopped drying - no heat - so we called Bob. He was quick, efficient and reasonably priced. Bob really knows Maytags! read more

Bob (Ralph's Son and now owner) is a virtual encyclopedia of all things washer and dryer related. I called with questions about my dryer & he was extremely helpful over the phone, giving advice on what I could check on my own for free before jumping into buying parts. When it turned out that I needed parts, he sold them to me at a great price and advised me on what to look for in a separate leaky washer situation I've been having and it totally worked and I found a cracked hose! Thanks Bob! I will be coming back for all my future washer/dryer situations. read more

I am SO glad that I found Ralph's Maytag! Bob is top-notch: fast, friendly, reliable. Not only was my part in stock but I got same day service! Bob really knows his washers and dryers. I highly recommend him! read more
