Original review Mar 04, 2024
I have used Mr Appliance in the past for a few things, and they were always good at their job, reliable, and prompt. Andrew the tech came in the time frame that was given to me, very polite, and very professional. cost was reasonable, considering the cost of a new stove. Mr appliance has done work for me in the past, and if i need a tech, i will call them again, Thanks for all the good work, the whole team is great thanks again.i

Charges me a lot of money and didn’t fix the problem

Mr Appliance - Charges me a lot of money and didn’t fix the problem
I was charged a lot of money by Mr Appliance to fix a problem with my Viking stove. The technician came to my home a few times to try and fix the problem with the stove that he charged me for but to this day has not fixed the problem. I need Mr Appliance to refund the money for the service we requested last February 2023 or fix the problem without trying to guess on what part to repair on the stove.

So far, they are still dishonest liarsStill trying to get the entire $510 for something that did not even need repaired

Original review Jan 02, 2024
On October 31 I called for a service call because the floor felt very hot in front of my refrigerator. Assuming it was my refrigerator.

Quintin, the owner of the company came out and did not even pull the refrigerator out and said oh you need a new Compressor fan. It was going to be $510 total. Not knowing any better arrives like well. OK.

He said they would be back on November 2 to replace the part
The next morning when my entire kitchen floor was hot I knew it was not the refrigerator. I called them at 9:30 AM on November 1 to cancel the service scheduled for 3 oclock on November 2.
Turns out, I had a broken hot water pipe under the concrete slab in my kitchen floor, which is why it was hot. There was absolutely nothing wrong with the refrigerator. Nothing nothing nothing
I want They must be in desperate need of business.
When I called to cancel, I was told that I would still have to pay for the part, I mean who needs a Samsung compressor fan sitting around the garage.
So unethically again, the following week they had one of their people drop the part off at my front porch along with a check for $129 for a refund for what would have been the service fee for the installation
Included with that were there, cancellation terms, and conditions.

Their cancellation policy was to let them know 24 hours ahead of time if you needed to cancel, and you could potentially be charged for restocking fee for the part.
No doubt, I owed $129 for the initial consultation, I would have paid the restocking fee.
But I am not gonna pay for a part that I dont need for somebody that lied about the service
So I filed a dispute with a credit card company, explaining what happened, and that I was more than happy to pay for the $129 service fee
Of course, Mr. appliance disputed that. I have a pile of photographic evidence of where I returned the part to them, I wrote void across the check and sent it back to them.
Yet they still got the credit card company to give them the entire $510. I mean what happened to $129 check that they tried to give back to me that i voided.

Thats dishonesty right there
These people are sadly pathetic.

Please dont call them for anything, and if you were thinking about it, read all of the reviews from every place you can find.
So far, I gave them the Google review, the yelp review, this review, I filed suit with a Better Business Bureau today and tomorrow I will be heading, heading to the courthouse To file a small claims court.
Trust me, its not because Im busy and I dont have anything else to do. But its just the ethics involved with this.
Total dishonesty

It started great & then it took a nose dive. They had to make a second trip to hook something up that the 1st guy forgot to do. Over 8 weeks of calling Mr Appliance, no answer or return of calls. We have soot on our food, the oven is covered with soot & we're finding it throughout the house. That's not even including the smell. This is a health hazard. The corporate office hasn't returned any of my calls.

IT IS A SCAM!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Mr Appliance - IT IS A SCAM!

On the "trouble reported" statement in the invoice he listed a number of things that would be necessary to fix the machine including the part replacements adding up to an amount around $1000. Which was a discouragement for us to decide on spending the money actually fixing the machine.

The invoice for his visit was almost $200. And he nether repaired the appliance, nether intended to repair it. I just opened the machine myself to see if I can repair it before I throw it out, and found out the part causing the problem only needed a cleanup. I wanted to check how much could have cost to replace the part (not including labor of course) and the price is $180.

NOT NEARLY the $1000 approximate for parts included in his report. DO NOT TRUST THESE PEOPLE!

Fraudulent business - do not hire!!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I had a terrible experience with Mr. Appliance of Columbus (614-524-****) for what should have been a straightforward dishwasher repair.

The saga started when my dishwasher malfunctioned in early June 2023. I contacted Mr. Appliance to schedule a service appointment.

The first technician came on June 13th and determined that the motor needed replacement, which was approved. He returned on June 19th to install the motor, but then realized a chopper assembly also needed replacement, which was ordered at no cost.

However, the technician warned that the heating element was failing too, so I approved replacement of that part for $153.59.

Then nothing happened for weeks because the heating element was backordered. I insisted the technician at least install the motor so I could use the dishwasher, but on his next visit he said he couldn't detach the old water hose due to oxidation, something he could have checked earlier. On the next visit, the technician didn't have the new water hose needed. Throughout this, the technician's car broke down twice causing more delays.

On the sixth attempt, the technician couldn't even get the motor in, so two other technicians were sent later but still no progress.

After months of delays, mixups and frustration, I asked for a refund on the heating element since it was never installed, but the company refused. The owner finally agreed to send technicians on September 14th to complete everything, but they were no shows. I have called the owner multiple times since then with no response.

This has been the most unprofessional and incompetent repair experience imaginable. I strongly advise avoiding this dishonest company for any appliance repairs.

Didn't fix my washer

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

If I could give them negative stars, I would. Here is the list of their failings.

1 .

The quote they gave for a part for my Bosh washing machine to my insurance was $200 over the price the Bosch website was selling it as.

2. They sent a technician to my house three times who had no clue what needed to be done and left three times without fixing the machine.

3. The fourth time they sent a person, they called an expert who failed to fix the machine completely.

4.

They didn't answer my complaint when I complained to them.

Now, I am left with a broken washing machine after paying $1000.

I would never, ever, recommend this company. In fact, I recommend you avoid them like the plague.

Map on website says they service my area. I was well within the blue on map. Said on website if you call before 10 service call is free. I asked about it when he said it will be tomorrow. His response was to hang up. I guess I should have waited until he got here and made him honer what website advertised. Very rude from tge start of conversation. I woujd y want nobody with that type attitude workibg on anything of mine. That carry over to the quality of work Im sure he performs.

Bad info on phone app

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Called for dryer repair, lady said tech would come out for 129 service charge, figure out problem, estimate bill. And if I decided to do job would take service fee off bill. Not, tech said bill would be 319, and no discounts because service fee waived. No flicking way a belt guide, and 1hr work comes to 319, they still had service fee in price. They are crooks. Even if they charge 100 dollars for a 40 part and charge 100 for 1hr work that's 200, plus that 129 is still charged,crooks with no remorse!don't use this company

If they can't fix your appliance, they still charge you 100%!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Original review Aug 14, 2023

1. Dishwasher is not working.

2.They came and diagnosed the problem (door latch doesn't work, so sensor doesn't get triggered), but cannot fix it.

3.They charged me $137.8 for "coming and finding the problem".

So...next time when you have a problem with your appliances, think twice before you hire this company, as you could be just like me, paying them only for finding the problem, not for fixing it.

Buyer Be Aware.

P.S.: One more thing before you decide to hire them - check them out at BBB site (search for Mr. Appliance BBB review) and get ready to be amazed by how many negative reviews they got - spoiler alert: their average review is one-star.)

Mr. Appliance Youngstown, Ohio

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Terrible experience. I have a refrigerator which was not working well.

Rather than going through the entire saga, Mr. Appliance has been out more than 5 times to fix this issue. Each time they have never ran a diagnostic, tested circuits or reviewed connections. What they have done each time is called the manufacturer, described the issue, and then waited for the manufacturer to diagnose the problem.

The second to the last time, the technician decided it was a defrost coil. He replaced this part. Once he did both icemakers stopped working. The last time a technician came out, he decided the unit was in demonstration mode.

He did something, called it a day. The icemakers still don't work. During this process, Mr. Appliances corporate office sent me a questionnaire.

I responded accurately. I received a communication from the office manager, Vicki. Vicki began to berate me for the review. At no time did she say "sorry or seem to accept any responsibility in any way.

She just spoke down to me and was extremely rude and disrespectful suggesting I did something wrong. At this point I will buy a new appliance before I use these people again.
