Later, I had another problem as the fridge started making an odd noise. Initially, Vadym suspected it was the compressor fan, but the issue persisted. This issue had actually been lingering for a long time, I had at least four or five other companies came to diagnose the noise issue, each offering different quick opinions--some barely inspected it and suggested immediate part replacements, others insisted the fridge needed to be pulled out (which is a big job for a built-in unit) and fix from the back of the fridge. But none felt confident, they all rushed to conclusions without a proper diagnosis. Vadym stood out by taking the time. He thoroughly examined the fridge and, when the issue persisted, he consulted his network instead of guessing. Eventually, he figured out the noise was caused by the condenser pipe and water pipe being too close, which caused vibration when the compressor kicked in. In the end, he fixed it. What I truly appreciated was his commitment, he didn't rush to a quick guess; he invested time, asked for input, and returned until it was resolved. I would highly recommend Vadym and Metro Appliance to others.

Get this -- they actually recommended I buy one of the appliance I am trying to procure at AA Kitchen from Costco instead!!! The sales person was looking online to give us the best price on each appliance on my list. However, they cannot match the holiday discount Costco was providing on this one specific appliance on my shopping list! If this is not integrity, I don't know how you define your world. I know other people wrote of them being not very responsiveness. I had a few days playing phone tag with them, too. But, we are near holiday season. We just drove up with our list, sat down, and worked with them in the shop. TL/DR: if you are looking to support a honest, hard working local small business, take your appliance shopping list to AA Kitchen first!

Rick and the team at Parkside were so amazing to work with. I ordered the wrong size gasket seal…read morefor our dryer drum and we didn't discover this until Rick had pulled the drum off. Rick helped me order the correct one direct from the manufacturer's (Sears/LG) website, and two days after the part arrived, Rick was back to attach it. Rick did not recharge me for the service fee on this second visit, which was extremely generous. Before calling Parkside, I had read the raving reviews and I wanted to add mine too. What a great experience! And what a relief to have the dryer back working the way it should!

TLDR: Really terrific honest friendly reliable folks that…read morehave served San Francisco nearly forever! Very reasonable repair costs too. We have an old (20+ yo!) Washer Dryer combo, and one day, the washer would not start up anymore. We gave the folks at Parkside a call, and they came out the next day on time to evaluate the issue. It turned out that the circuit board was no good anymore. Even though the circuit board for our machine was no longer in production and no longer in stock at the manufacturer they were able to find me a direct replacement board to complete the repair. Way to go! Its been a few years now since this repair, but our washer/dryer has been happy again ever since! Update: We just called them up for a repair for a gas stove, and since they don't repair gas stoves (only electric ones and most all kinds of washer/dryers), they referred me to another trusted company for that. Verdict: Great folks all. It is so refreshing to have such nice folks out there like Parkside Appliance to help us solve our once-in-a-blue-moon appliance repairs! Highly Recommended!

I recently replaced my appliances as part of a kitchen renovation. I was originally thinking I…read morewould buy from a box store, but once I walked in to Cherin's I knew this was the place. All they do is sell appliances, instead of appliances being one of a thousand types of products they sell. As such Raul was super helpful and knowledgeable, he gave me multiple great recommendations. From what I could tell, the prices are pretty much the same everywhere, and it's a pleasure to support a local family run business. My kitchen reno ended up taking much longer than expected, and that was not a problem. Cherin's held the appliances for months without issue. I am not sure that other stores would have been so accommodating. And because it took so long, there was an issue with the rebate for buying several appliances from one brand. Raul took care if it right away and I received the rebate no problem. Big thumbs up!

If you do a lot of asian cooking and need a heavy duty hood range (I mean something so strong that…read moreit would suck up a pot lid). Pacific Range has the perfect hood range for you! They carry the standard self cleaning range and their new steam cleaning one. The steam cleaning range costs a bit more and you have to use bottled or distilled water - not tap. I don't have water service and I don't want to go to the trouble of obtaining distilled water so we got the cheaper self cleaning range (water and 409 will do the trick). They don't upsell you. They let you make up your own mind. I also bought a Buffalo rice cooker. It has a stainless steel pot which is pretty heavy (not the cheap aluminum ones you find at the stores nor is it coated with teflon). They kicked in a set of knives, veggie cleaver and a hot water pot for free. It took about a month for my range to come in but once it did, they called me and let me know what time they would be at the house (between 10 - 12 PM on a Saturday). The guy actually came on 10 AM. He dismantled my old range and installed the new one without any problems. It took him about 30 minutes to do this. He also hauled the old one away for free. Minus one star for not cleaning up after himself after the installation. He had to drill a bigger hole in my cabinet that connects to the exhaust pipe because my previous range had a smaller hole. He left wood scraps from the drilling all over my stove and counters. That was a bear to clean! I'm happy with the range. It's strong enough that the fire alarm, that sits in my kitchen, doesn't scream every time I cook.

Homewise (formerly Airport Appliance) comes through again with exceptional local service!…read more We have bought many appliances from Airport Appliance in the past--which is now Homewise. I was initially a bit worried that the business had been absorbed into a national chain, but it turned out to be just a name change with the same great local ownership. Most recently, our wall oven went dead on the 4th of July. We called Homewise and spoke with Lyla Vo, who was fantastic at advising us on replacement options. While working with her, we also decided to replace our 15-year-old dishwasher to take advantage of a two-item extra rebate! Over the years, we've tried other options in the area, but Homewise strikes the perfect balance: Vs. High-End Local Outfits: Higher-end stores seem bothered if you aren't remodeling an entire kitchen. Even though we'd bought from them before, they lacked interest when we only needed a single replacement item. Vs. Big National DIY Chains: Big-box stores are a headache. Twice, their installers walked out refusing to complete the job due to minor water, power, or circuit compliance issues. While those may have been on our end due to older coding, there was zero flexibility or real-time planning--they are bound strictly by corporate liability rules and won't work with you on the spot. Plus, you're basically dealing with a website, not a human. Why Homewise Wins: Even though we handled everything over the phone with Lyla, the entire experience was seamless. When we had follow-up questions, Lyla even responded from her phone after her shift was over! That kind of personal, above-and-beyond care is rare. On top of that, the installation process was super smooth, and they strictly honored their 4-hour delivery window. Homewise delivers the exact feel of working with a reliable, friendly neighborhood salesperson. Next time an appliance needs replacing, we're heading straight back to them. Please keep supporting local businesses like this one!

Jeff helped me out and I was taken away how professional he was initially. He identified they have stock of the washer I wanted but because of the long weekend we weren't able to move further past the process. He promised to reach out first thing Monday. Monday came, no communication from him, just radio silence. I even gave him the benefit of the doubt and tried calling him and leaving him voicemails to call me back so I could make payment and complete the purchase. I was certain he would come through after how nice and reaffirming he was when we met. Alas, he never did reach back out. I'm glad I didn't do business with them in the end if this is how they handle business. The manager's name is Jeff Stern who assisted me and went silent. Please do better with your next customers.
