Nice guy who overpromised (repaired 3-year old oven will keep set temp within a variance of 15…read moredegrees), but under-delivered. My mistake for not testing oven with wired ThermoWorks probe within the warranty period. Once I did, with the oven set to 375 degrees, when the probe showed a temp of 329 without the oven reheating, I turned the oven off, immediately turned it back on and set it to 375 degrees. The oven then displayed an internal temp of 325 degrees and started reheating. So much for the temp staying within 15 degrees of the set temperature after spending $1,200 on repair work.

Top notch provider of servicing on in home major appliances. High Desert Appliance is all service,…read moreno sales component, so there is no conflict in mission. They are factory authorized by most, maybe all, major appliance companies so warranty work is covered. For out of warranty work their prices are fair and reasonable. The administrative management team is great for scheduling and follow up. The technicians arrive when they are supposed to and always get the job done. If you're having premium brand name appliances serviced and Technician Ken West shows up you will be particularly fortunate. Ken has been at our homes in Bend several times over the last fifteen years, including today when he once again was able to diagnose and resolve the problem all in one visit. Ken has many years of experience (he also once worked for Johnson Brother's Appliance), he knows his stuff in technical skills and he is simply the nicest guy as well.

I first "met" Al on the phone in 2019 when looking for someone to repair a failing refrigerator. Al…read morelistened to me while I gave him a detailed "Gone With the Wind" description regarding my ten year old Frigidaire with a freezer compartment maintaining the 40-degree temperature while the fridge compartment was sustaining roughly room temperature. When I finished the story, Al suggested a couple people that are fridge experts, and he then said that he is actually a Washer-Dryer specialist. I thanked Al for the suggestions, and told him I was so appreciative, that if I have a problem with my washer and/or dryer, he would be the first call I would make. All that based on his super high ratings. Well, here it is, about five years later (I got a new fridge to replace the other one in 2022... nothing was delivering during the peak COVID years), and my washer kept giving me F- 11 faults. I leaped for the phone and called Al. and got scheduled and he did a great job - especially with my old washer which is very limited in parts still being available. The washer (a Kenmore a.k.a. Whirlpool) started humming again rather than driving me nuts going into a "fault" mode for the five years mentioned earlier. Not longer than that, my dryer motor gave up the ghost, and this time, Al found a good-condition used motor, and viola, it ran again. When I knew the system was back running again, I told Al that if one of them kicks the bucket, I'll give him them so he can refurbish them and I'll get myself a new one. I dread the day that happens because I'm not a fan of artificial intelligence. Watch a re-run of "2001, Space Odyssey" and check out Hal 9000 again for a refresher of what is coming up in the world. I am not sure about all the digital gobble de-goop coming up. I only can think how difficult it will be when Mr. Al Harris is not around to reboot Hal 9000's broken A.I.-infested equipment while he still can make the antique ones quietly humming along. Al is a legend indeed. A rare man and worthy of all these five star reviews.

In October we purchased a dryer from Al for our daughter. When he installed it he said he would…read moreorder a handle for it. Also said the dryer had a 6 month guarantee. My daughter contacted him after a few months to check on the handle as she had never heard back from him. He stated he had forgotten and would get it ordered. She also mentioned that it seemed to take longer than expected to dry a load. He said when he brought the handle he would look at it. It is now mid January and he has not brought the handle, looked at why it takes long to dry or contacted her about the delay. Very disappointing and frustrating especially with the 6 month guarantee running out.
