Unlike other PC repair services that jump straight to charging for a diagnosis, Stephen actually took the time to give me troubleshooting advice--for FREE!

I ordered a new keyboard, looked at a youtube repair video, and realized that I was completely out of my depth. I took it to Wolfie who deftly disassembled the entire machine, discovered that I had the wrong keyboard, then built up a replacement with pieces from the old and new keyboards. This involved careful work on plastic pieces. The result has worked great now for a couple of weeks. I give Wolfie my highest recommendation.

We ordered a Viking Side by Side refrigerator freezer from Best Buy in Cascade Station Portland on…read moreFebruary 22, 2026, because our existing kitchen aide unit had a leak that could not easily be repaired. Cost with taxes was paid in full for over $13,000. We were originally given a delivery date of 4/4/26 and received no warning of delays. Had we been warned of possible delays, we would have purchased something else given the issues and damage caused by the existing unit. We were told in March that Best Buy needed to reschedule which we did for May 6. We were then told again that Best Buy needed to reschedule which we did for May 27. That appointment also got cancelled by Best Buy and rescheduled for July 6. Then the July 6 got cancelled because they didn't plan for a 4 person delivery team. Finally on July 8 the unit was delivered and the old unit removed. Unfortunately, we were told by the install team after installation that there is a manufacturing flaw in the Viking unit and so the stainless steel doors rub and are grinding deep scratches into both doors. The extensive delays caused damage to our wood floors from the old units leaking which was great effort to contain. And sadly the local Best Buy sales team has now told us that they steer shoppers away from Viking refrigerators because of quality concerns. Since delivery we realized the unit is also missing the bottom kick plate and a few weeks after delivery the ice has stopped working. We scheduled a replacement delivery which was set for August, but weeks later that again was cancelled by Best Buy with a request that we contact them to reschedule. Today we went to Best Buy, ordered a non-Viking unit which is scheduled for delivery in August. Wish us luck.
