Michael told me as much - was honest as he was the first time. No promises. Gave me a timeline, of course he adhered to and VOILA! Also, he inventoried everything & returned exactly as he received it. (P.S.: Having such great assistance at a difficult time was extra appreciated) UPDATE 2: Cat kicked water on to my laptop. (Yes, I am blaming the cat.) Texted Michael for advice... it was a simple fix, required overnight care, but again, problem solved.

My technician Jesse over at The Cheap Squad spent many hours across 4 sessions to get it fixed. During this entire time, he was extremely communicative and helpful, letting me know all the things he was trying alongside the status of the machine. He also gave me a lot of excellent tips on how to take better care of my computer. On top of all that, he even mentioned that if he wasn't able to get it fixed, they would refund me out of good faith. I'm happy to say that my computer's healthy now, and The Cheap Squad is easily one of the best vendors I have ever worked with. I cannot recommend them enough. They clearly care so much about customer satisfaction and doing quality work. If you're having IT problems, go to them.

Crazy selection, helpful staff…read more The Micro Center in Santa Clara, located at 5201 Stevens Creek Blvd, brings an incredible, hands-on tech wonderland to Silicon Valley with over 40,000 square feet of hardware, components, and gadgets. I agree with other shoppers that the store is a much-needed haven for PC builders and enthusiasts, featuring immersive displays like a massive 3D printer filament wall and vast shelves stocked with graphics cards, motherboards, and pre-built systems. You can touch and test products before buying, which makes browsing feel engaging and fun.Beyond the impressive inventory, the store stands out for its helpful staff and competitive pricing on tech gear. Employees at the Knowledge Bar and open-air workshop are ready to answer technical questions or help assemble custom PC builds if you prefer not to do it yourself. While popular items like high-end graphics cards can draw crowds or fluctuating prices, the overall shopping experience feels well-organized and exciting for anyone passionate about technology. Thanks

I did NOT know that they were the vendor who has that giant keyboard challenge that I've seen in…read morethe past couple of times at Fanime. Super fun. I don't really dabble in building keyboards myself but as someone who works in accessibility, it's interesting to me (textured/braille keys, ergonomic and 1 handed keyboards, etc.). They're located in the back of a creator's hub in a shared space but they have their own worker there who can answer questions and they have building events and community days too from what I've gleaned over. Definitely check out their Instagram for more up to date information. They have clay key caps, they do commissions, and they have lots of different colors, textures, with or without the numbers and letters and symbols on them, different levels for beginners or more advanced keyboard people, mats, cases, and so much more, so if this is your hobby, this is the place to stop by. Value and price is fair for what they offer since there's pre-built, build your own, the variety that they have, and the fact that they can also DIY or do commissions after reaching out. Much better than, you know, getting a cheapo Hoyoslop keyboard from elsewhere...

They gave me back my computer with diagnostics fee being the only cost I paid (39 bucks at the time!) and she's back in working order! Really appreciated their ability to work around my schedule too.

I went to this place trying to get my computer diagnosed and repaired in July last year. The person…read moretold me very confidently that it was the issue of the fan, and the only thing needed was to replace it. Also, they promised a date when the fan would be available, and I believed it. However, when the day came, they said they would need another few days. Using the computer was very important to me, so I got annoyed and switched to another place. At the new place, I was told the issue with my computer was because of a completely different reason, and they helped me repair it smoothly. Glad that the delay helped me avoid further loss with this unreliable KY electronics. Unfortunately, although the diagnosis result was a complete error. I was not refunded for the diagnosis fee. Edit: The business owner replied saying that my job was on May 29, 2024, which is completely false. I wasn't even at the Bay Area during that time. Either he intentionally mixed me up with someone else or simply made up the story. Apparently, I have no point of making up a negative review if being satisfied as the customer, but the business owner has full motivation to respond to negative reviews by making up stories when he cannot reasonably dispute it, and it seems he has been doing it for many other reviews as well.
