It was a pleasure working with Andres Vega at Pacific Sales in Torrance. I explained to Andres that…read moreI needed to replace my high-end 48" side-by-side Thermador refrigerator that I had purchased new in 2004. Unfortunately, after spending thousands of dollars on repairs over the past five years, it continued to break down and was no longer reliable. Andres listened patiently to my concerns and then asked what type of refrigerator I was looking for. I told him I wanted something similar to the Thermador but with much greater longevity. He recommended Sub-Zero, explaining that while it cost a little more than Thermador, Sub-Zero refrigerators have a long-standing reputation for lasting over 20 years. I mentioned that I had read all Sub-Zero 48" models are 84" high, which is 1/2" taller than my existing Thermador, and I was concerned they would not fit in my cabinet space. Andres confidently told me they would fit, but to make absolutely certain, he offered to send Pacific Sales' certified Sub-Zero installers to my home to take measurements free of charge and with no obligation to purchase. The installers arrived the very next day, took measurements, and confirmed that all the Sub-Zero 48" models would fit perfectly. I then met Andres at the store, where he showed me the different 48" Sub-Zero models and honestly explained the pros and cons of each style based on customer feedback. I ultimately decided on the Classic French Door model. Since I had already been without a refrigerator for weeks, I told Andres I wanted it as soon as possible. He assured me it would not be a problem, and amazingly, he arranged delivery and installation just three days later. The installers arrived on time, completed the installation in less than an hour, and thoroughly tested everything before leaving. The entire process--from measurements to installation--took only three days and was completely painless and stress-free. I could not be happier with my new Sub-Zero refrigerator, and I truly appreciate all of Andres Vega's help. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, intelligent, and genuinely knows his stuff. I highly recommend Andres Vega at Pacific Sales in Torrance to anyone looking for a high-end refrigerator or premium appliance shopping experience.

My experience with Appliance Gaurd... I have been using Appliance Guard for all appliance repairs…read morefor the past 5 years plus for multiple properties. They have taken care of every Appliance issue I have and completed the repairs promptly and honestly and with fair price. They assess the appliance and provide immediate service to fix and repair. So grateful to have the Appliance Tech Yuri and Mike at Appliance Guard who always help me.. I have so many appliance stories I could tell and too many for different home located at the beach cities . They are always helpful giving me the best advice and solution to resolve any appliance issues. Once they fix the appliance, I don't have any problems. If I need to replace, they let me know immediately and guide me to get the best appliance to save cost and time. Having multiple properties comes with a lot of maintenance/cost and require honest vendors. Their professionalism helps me with my relationships with the tenants.. The customer service has been just amazing

My bill was $430 to replace the belt, rollers and idler pulley. Value? Anyway, fast forward six months (now). Dryer broke again and I called the company to discuss the issue. First call went to voicemail. No return call. Second call days later was answered by office manager who said she would consult with the business owner and get back to me. Again, no return call. My dryer is still broken. It appears the problem is only a broken or displaced belt. I'm not accusing the company of faulty work but for what I was charged I expected better custome service. I do not recommend this business.

Nick at Fast SevenAppliance Repair came highly recommended by my best friend. I called him for help, and he immediately responded and scheduled a technician to come out the next day. In the meantime, he patiently walked me through a simple troubleshooting step over the phone, and surprisingly everything started working normally again. He told me there's no need for the technician to come . I really appreciate his honesty, professionalism, and willingness to help. It's rare to find someone who is knowledgeable and genuinely cares about the customer instead of just making money. I would definitely recommend this company for refrigerator repairs and appliance service.

Fast Seven is by far one of the most excellent and most reliable appliance Service repair company I…read morehave ever called on. They responded immediately within a few minutes and had their technician come over on a Sunday. It was absolutely amazing that they realize not everyone can be home on a workday. Their technical Isa came out on a Sunday and even offered a free consultation. However, he was able to immediately spot the issue and repair the dishwasher in 30 minutes or so. He was extremely professional, courteous, his communication was amazing and he kept me informed at all times of his arrival. On his inspection, he gave me options and fixed up front prices for both options for my choice. After the job, the technician ensured that my surrounding area and appliance were left clean. Their quality of service is amazing. It was an amazing experience and from now on I would be using only this company for my appliance repair needs. I will only be calling on them. With such amazing service, I would highly recommend Fast Seven services to anyone.

Myrna at Gardena Appliances had been so helpful during our crisis when our built in oven died and gave us advice to save money, I decided to give her a call to see what they could do. GA was the only company that gave me a price for the entire job (as long as nothing extra was required) instead of giving me the price for just coming out and saying they would credit that to the complete job. Props to GA for that. All the other companies Yelp referred only revealed service call prices. How do you compare one mystery with another? Didn't need to worry about that with GA. Myrna and Jose were able to come out the same day and when she learned that I was the one who had left a complimentary Yelp review for her previous assistance, her face lit up and really appreciated the review. I'm so happy we were finally able to do business. They took care of the problem in no time flat and for an extremely reasonable price. I look forward to calling them first if we have appliance problems in the future that aren't covered under warranty. They take pride in their work and serving the community in the South Bay. A wonderful experience. Thank you Myrna and Jose. A prosperous and happy New Year to both of you!
