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! Stephen genuinely cared about saving me money and even suggested that I contact the PC brand's customer service first before having him work on my PC. His honesty and willingness to help without asking for anything in return really stood out. If I ever need professional repairs, I know exactly where to go. Highly recommend!

My laptop decided to give up the ghost after several years- ironically, on the VERY day I was…read moreplanning to download all my photos onto a hard drive. It started with my taskbar freezing, then disappearing. After a hard reboot, I had a blank screen. Not being terribly computer savvy, I tried several times over the next few days to restart the computer and would get a message while it was going through its startup cycle, but then it would just cycle endlessly or eventually display a blank screen. After multiple attempts at internet fixes using my phone, I took the computer to a local repair shop, but it was too severely corrupted to repair. The proprietor did take out the hard drive and reinstalled Windows 10, and also gave me a business card for Cascadia Data Recovery. I decided to go ahead and try the service, because they advertised a set rate with no payment if no data was recovered. I called Cascadia and spoke to a very helpful person who detailed how to send my corrupted drive to them and what to expect. I was sent instructions and a shipping label via email as well. A couple of days after I shipped the drive, Cascadia sent me a message that my data was recovered, and included a view-only attachment that showed the names of the recovered files. Everything was there! I was given the option to pay the fee at that time if I wanted to continue with the data recovery, as well as to have the data downloaded to a new external hard drive (for the cost of the drive- they will not accept one from the customer). I paid the fees via credit card and was shipped the drive shortly afterward. I couldn't be more pleased with the service and customer care I received. I have recommended Cascadia to a few people already and will continue to do so!

Butch came to my house to fix several computer issues. I thought it would take 2 hours, it look a…read morelittle more than 1 hour- for multiple issues! I was ready to buy a new computer and printer, but he was able to fix both printers --mechanical issue on one, software on another- you know, win7 has 64bit and 32bit and when the updates segmented the two, you can not longer use the universal driver.... blah blah blah.... not something I can solve myself using Google- believe me, I tried! He even gave me some tips for future issues, and issues I used to have with my monitor. So now I have things to try when the monitor goes out again, before I call him again to fix it. I've used other computer repair places, but Butch is the one I'll be returning to since the other places couldn't fix my other issues. My computer is my baby and I need it for light room and photo management, so I can't let it die so easily. Price was very competitive and I'm so happy with the work done.

I then decided it was best to purchase a new phone instead. I want to give a shout out to Computing Advisor Spencer Deuel. He was very welcoming and knowledgeable, answering every question I had about the newer I phones in store available to purchase. The transfer of information from my old I Phone11 to my new I phone 15 proved to be quite challenging to say the least (3 hours). I was so impressed with Spencer as he maintained a positive attitude while he navigated every possible solution for a successful transfer of information to the new phone. I respect his commitment to providing EXEMEPLARY customer service. Spencer shares his extensive job experience and is wonderful to work with and should be considered an important asset to his team at Best Buy.

I wouldn't even give one star! I recently purchased kitchen appliances from Best Buy, including…read moreinstallation, which was covered under my "Best Buy Total" membership. To say that Best Buy messed up the installation is an understatement. The dishwasher's installation was incorrect; the discharge hose was crammed into the cabinet space and not connected, discharging water between my flooring and subflooring, and causing significant damage to my brand-new home. My homeowner's insurance isn't covering damage; they have referred me to Best Buy to recover costs. I had to be out of my house for six weeks, due to the mold, mildew and repair requirements - further expenses. Total damage - $30K+ Best Buy has refused to take any responsibility for the damage or the repair costs, and at this point, won't even respond to follow-up calls or emails. Initially, they tried to blame the installation error on rodents - but couldn't make the case without any nests, droppings, bite marks, etc. Bottom line - they did an incomplete, ineffective job and won't accept the responsibility. So - before you make that Black Friday appliance purchase, please be aware of who and what are coming into your home, and the damage they can do! And - even though Best Buy says "relax - we've got you covered" in their advertising for the "Best Buy Total" membership - it seems they really don't!
