Update to my previous review: I was contacted by the business and was told that the reason for…read moretheir lack of communication was due to being a victim of a cyberattack. As I had no other way to verify this, I took them at their word and accepted their explanation. For full transparency, however, it is worth noting that this communication came less than 24 hours after I had posted my initial review. The repair technician arrived at my home the same day, and spent approximately 90 minutes going back over the previous repair work and going much more in-depth in this second go-round. After completing the work, he explained what he did, what he found, and then ran a cycle through my dishwasher. The next day, I ran another cycle, and the leaking issue had been fixed. As I am someone who does believe in giving people and businesses second chances and opportunities, and because I have seen them perform excellent and professional work before (see my original review), I am likely to give them my business at least once more to see that this experience is an outlier and not their typical course of business.

The true quality of a company is revealed when something goes wrong. And in this case it did and…read morethe results were bad. I hired the company to repair my washer. Diagnosis visit was great. Not so good after that. First repair appointment was cancelled during my scheduled appointment window because the part wasn't in yet. Second repair appointment, Mohamed showed up for the repair only to realize he had picked up the wrong part. The worst part was how he handled it. He said he had to drive back to Alexandria to get the right part. I had another contractor appointment at another property and told him my schedule was very challenging. He immediately became angry and literally started yelling at me. Said he was very busy too and this was messing up his whole schedule, exclaiming that it wasn't his fault. I was hoping to discuss our schedules to figure something out but he was losing it. I was trying to figure out what to do and he was yelling, "decide! decide!". Overwhelmed, I decided I would tell him go get it and come back and I'd try to figure out a solution in the meantime. After he left, I messaged the company and asked that they send another tech. They didn't have another tech. They refused to answer the phone and were not apologetic. Fortunately I was able to get my husband to come home from work and be there. At this point I was very upset and didn't ever want to see that man again. When Mohamed returned he fixed the dryer and apologized to my husband, but not to me, even though he was still texting me. Said he was really stressed. A little over a month later the part failed. It made me sick that we had to go back to the same company. They again said they didn't have another tech so again I had my husband be there for the appointment. I realized that likely there is only one Mohamed and the owner and tech are the same person. In spite of everything that had happened - the canceled appointment during the appointment time, showing up with the wrong part and yelling at me for it - he charged us $79 trip charge to replace the failed part. Said his labor warranty was 30 days. Here he had an opportunity to do something to compensate for his previous behavior and last minute cancellations, but he chose not to. I will never use this company again and do not recommend at all. So many good reviews but when things go wrong, beware.

**1 Star** **Deeply Unprofessional & Zero Follow-Through**…read more Last week, my partner and I hired this company to repair our 1.5-year-old washing machine that suddenly stopped draining. A technician came out the same day, diagnosed the issue, charged us the diagnostic fee, and we even tipped him. He told us he'd be back the next day after picking up the replacement part. And then... absolutely nothing. No update. No call. No text. No follow-through. Two days later, we called *them* -- only to be casually told that he "had to order the part" and that it would be Monday or Tuesday before they could return. Monday came and went. Tuesday came and went. Still nothing. After multiple calls from us, the company finally admitted **they never even ordered the part at all.** Not the first time we'd asked -- only after pressing them for answers a week later. No apology. No sense of urgency. No ownership. Just a vague "maybe later this week." This has been one of the most unprofessional, disorganized service experiences I've dealt with in a long time. We're now a week into this mess, completely without a functioning washing machine, because they simply didn't do what they said they would do. **Save yourself the frustration -- look elsewhere.**

He came to inspect my dryer booster fan and ended up breaking my access panel. Instead of telling…read moreme what happened, he tried to push it back into place as if nothing had occurred. That was disappointing and unprofessional. His pricing also wasn't transparent. A complete replacement booster fan costs around $400, yet he quoted me $350 just for the motor, without clearly explaining the pricing or why it was so high. Overall, the experience was very unprofessional. Communication was poor, the estimate lacked transparency, and I was left with damaged property that wasn't acknowledged. I would not recommend this service. If you're looking for fair pricing, honest communication, and professional workmanship, I suggest looking elsewhere.

The repair folks scuffed my walls, broke my drain pan, complained that it was in closet, refused to fix it because it was stacking and there was a dryer on top. That time it was the computer panel. I cannot work from home so I was at my wits end with using vacation time. Fast forward two years owning it and it broke again. Again I tried another company and they arrived after I told them it was a two person job with one person and couldn't fix it. The folks from optimal appliance repair were absolutely amazing. They arrived actually early, two super professional repairmen. Within 30 minutes my washing machine valve was fixed perfectly. I noticed noises before the repair and afterwards no more noise. No damage to the laundry closet and amazing cleanup. I was lucky that they pretty much fixing my washer like a day after contacting them. It's been working perfectly for a month.
