I contacted Lake Appliance Repair when my fridge and freezer stopped cooling. They answered the call right away and were able to schedule me for the following business day. Hunter was prompt and kind, confirmed the issue and the cost for parts/repair. We were back up and running in no time. I'll definitely be using Lakeside for future needs! read more

I only recommend this company for Christian, our service guy. He was simply amazing and took care of the problem within two visits on our Samsung ice maker. He was very informative and knowledgeable. Very nice guy!! Thank you again Christian! **This review goes to Christian only; not the company!!!! read more

I was having refrigerator issues and GE referred me to Lake Appliance repair. While the initial pay upfront via text process seemed a little sketchy and for someone who is a little paranoid around scam schemes these days, it gave me pause. I decided to go forward and was scheduled pretty quickly. My technician was Tim and he was great, he fortunately was able to fix my issue on the initial diagnosis visit. I would recommend and thank you! read more

We had Lake Appliance Repair come to look at a Whirlpool washer under a Whirlpool service contract. The tech showed up and I informed the washer was leaking on the washer clean cycle. I told the tech what was going on. He took the top off the washer, took a flashlight and looked down the machine. He said it was leaking from the over suds vent. I asked if he was going to run a cycle to see where the water was coming from, and he said " I don't have time for that. " He took the back off the washer and looked at the back of the machine and said, I don't see anything. I again asked if he was going to run a cycle and said no, He had seen enough, put the back on the washer. I guess I asked too many questions, I asked him why even come out if he wasn't going to do anything. I came back in the laundry room a couple minutes later and he was gone! Another appliance repair dealer said the tub has a crack and cannot be repaired, but you have to fill the washer to see the leak. read more

Parts & Labor price inflated - set by technician; no written itemized quote/invoice before work begins; lack of transparency. Turn around time one week. Requested service on microwave and dishwasher. No special service call rate for 2 appliances. Charged me over the phone $62.50 and $185 respectively in order to dispatch a technician. Labor and parts would be determined by the technician once there. Next day arrival by the tech. Not rude but not friendly either. Determined the microwave needed a door micro switch and the dishwasher a UI board. The tech said that the total cost for the microwave would be $270.02 and the dishwasher would be $559.05 (parts & Labor). Although I thought the charges were excessive, especially for two appliances at the same time, I agreed. I had believed that the service charges paid over the telephone had been deducted from these amounts. I found out later that they were not. The technician's charges were verbal, without giving me an invoice or itemize statement of the charges. He said this was done by the office and not by him. He had me sign for the agreed upon parts and labor charges. My credit card was immediately debited for that amount. He also informed me that the parts would be sent to my home address, and that they would arrive in a few days (they did). In addition, he mentioned that each part would be charged $17 for a shipping fee. I asked him why each part was charged a shipping fee when both came from the same parts company and were shipped at the same time in the same box. He said it had something to do with keeping track of each service warranty, and it was the office policy. The tech said he would be back in a week to install the parts. I asked, if the parts will arrive in a few days, why did I have to wait a week for install. He said, "because that was his earliest opening for a service call." He returned a week later and installed the parts. By now I had learned the initial telephone service call charges had not been deducted from the $559.05 & $270.02 parts & labor charged by the tech, but had been charged to my credit card by the office when I applied for the service call. When I confronted tech, he said he thought that was understood at the time of his verbal quote. Most companies will give you a written itemized statement or quote before work begins. Get one! Most companies want to be transparent. This company leaves the transparency up to the technician. Their techs determine labor and parts cost, but this is done verbally. After the tech finished the install, I later received an email with my billing statement. Microwave: Parts, $297 (Micro switch, no more than a $5.00 switch); and labor $350; Tax $8.02, Total: $455.02. Dishwasher: Parts $297, Labor $300, Tax $24.55, Total: $621.55 Grand Total: $1076.57. One hour of install time (Total Labor $650). If my wife hadn't wanted the appliances fixed when the tech came for the install, I wouldn't have let him do it. He had deceived us about the parts and labor total costs. I am assuming they get their commission from the total costs of repairs. The fact that they get to control and determine parts and labor costs, gives them an incentive to inflate prices. My bad, I should have done more research and read more of the yelp reviews. There are a lot more appliance repair companies to choose from, you might consider them before Lake Appliance Repair. read more

Terrible service. No one ever answers the phone. The tech came out three times for a warranty claim on a refrigerator and totally scammed us. The tech didn't know anything, didn't have the proper tools, and was unprofessional. Ordered parts, never put them in, lied to us. Now we are going on four weeks without a refrigerator. read more

They only do what they want to do. They order parts and charge for them and put them in and then tell you its something else and its more money, Mis diagnosed the first time. These guys are rude and not worth it. The office loses paperwork and theres no communication between the office and the techs. They come when there not supposed to and never follow through with what they say. The tech named michael is probably the worse. Stay away from this company, your gonna end up giving your money to someone else anyway. read more

Immediately after the delivery of a Brand New GE Fridge to my home I Discovered that the '3rd Door' was Not Functioning and there was a Box on the top shelf with ?? In it !! I quickly called the Delivery Driver explaining the Situation and his response was "Oh, We Don't Do That" ! I'm not sure what that even meant ?? I contacted the Store where I purchased my New Fridge and they referred me to Lake Appliance ! I was so impressed right from the Beginning with this company's Communication and Within a few Days Christian, their Rep, was At my Home. He apologized for my experience with the Delivery Service and Quickly opened the Box, removed the Plastic that was All Over the Outside and Inside then attached the Shelving on the Doors. He was the Most Kind, Courteous, and Knowledgeable Repairman I have ever met. He Tried his best to Fix the double door situation, replacing the Seal and even heating the Seal Between the Two Doors to no avail. Eventually Christian had to Order a Totally New Right Double Door Assembly for me. It was shipped directly to my home and I immediately contacted Lake Appliance and was added to their busy Schedule. I was so happy to see Christian return again since I Understood that he definitely knew what he was doing ! Do to this Fridge Being Brand New there was No Charge for their Amazing Service ! I'm so Impressed with the Outstanding Customer Service that Christian provided me I know I will Call them Back for any other Appliance Issues ! read more

Scheduled for a repair man to come out and fix my disabled GE dishwasher that periodically gives me grief. Performed my periodic run of the dishwasher and water began leaking on the floor. So easy to schedule someone to come out. Gave them a call and had an appointment in a timely manner. Found that it was a misaligned drain pump, possibly a defect. The technician came out and gave it a fix, but if the leak returns, he recommended that it would be more cost effective to buy a new dishwasher. Bad on me for not getting an extended warranty, but I will keep that in mind when making an additional purchase if need be. Easy appointment, cost effective, great customer service. Also has a nice app that lets you track where your technician is in his schedule read more

Save yourself the trouble and DO NOT use Lake Appliance Repair. They do not respond to calls regarding the problem with my service call. I had to call 6 times to try to get resolution of my issue and finally called me after I used the text service to customer service. It then took a manager two days to call, and he offered only half off of a follow-up $99 service inspection and nothing off the potential service fix. To this point I'm out $59 for the virtual service call and $160 for the part that they said would fix the problem. I ordered the part as instructed and it did NOT fix my issue. They also told me that it was a simple "slide out the old part and slide in the new replacement part." This statement was completely wrong. I had to remove all of the freezer drawers and detach the entire rack holding the ice maker. There was a hidden screw that totally prevented the part from sliding in or out. This service call issue is the most frustrating interaction that I have ever had for a service issue. No one is interested in fixing their mistake. This is the first 1 star review that I have ever given in my life. Having owned a business, I try not to post items like this, but nobody is interested in making this issue right. read more

Can't forget to give a review for Lake Appliance and shout out to technician, Tim. Not only did Lake Appliance get us in very quick, but they sent a fantastic technician. Tim came, repaired our washer, and talked me through each step so I knew what he was doing. He was informative, friendly, and knowledgeable...they are lucky to have him. These days it's hard to find good and experienced technicians. Well done! read more

This is Francis Holminski Just had my refrigerator leveled, and it did not require a flooring fix. The wheels were adjusted and it's just fine. So your response to my review talked about your fee which had nothing to do with my complaint. So your technician's assessment that it was a flooring issue was wrong! And your comment that "no further appliance-related (sic) service could rectify the issue"was wrong! It took just 15 minutes to adjust the wheels of the refrigerator and it is now good. I stand by my comment that the technician you sent didn't even try to adjust the refrigerator. So the fact that you "stand by our technician's assessment" is wrong! I could have spent untold time and money chasing the flooring assessment which turned out to be bogus! I could go on but I don't think you care! Your "savant" technician needs to be told to do a detailed review next time! read more

Requested service on two appliances, dryer and dishwasher, Whirlpool booked these guys. Tech arrives 10 days later with zero knowledge of issues reported. "Fixes" dryer and had to order parts to repair dishwasher, scheduled second visit to install. In the meantime, dryer is not repaired as told by technician, still making lots of loud noise. Tech returns to finally fix dishwasher (2 weeks later). Told him dryer still not fixed, doesn't even want to look at it. Then finally does listen to it run before he leaves, acknowledges still not fixed, promises to order "dryer repair kit" and come back. Never hear from them again. Call to request follow-up and they tell us to call Whirlpool and start over. Then they have the temerity to send email and ask us for "5-star review" for their "one visit service". Not a chance. read more

Tim was very helpful and got my washing machine working. The scheduler worked with us to set up a good time for the repair.

My parents were referred to Lake Appliance through their GE warranty to repair a brand-new GE dryer in their vacation home. The dryer wasn't drying properly and couldn't complete a load in a single cycle. They first requested a repair in September 2025. A technician came out, claimed to have fixed the issue, and closed the ticket--yet the dryer still had the same problem. A couple of weeks later, my parents requested another repair. Again, a technician said the dryer was fixed and closed the ticket, but nothing changed. This happened a third time: another appointment, another claim that the dryer was repaired, and the same ongoing drying issue. Now, months later, the dryer still doesn't work correctly, but the technicians continue to insist that it does. The warranty company relies solely on the technician's assessment and refuses to take further action. My parents were scheduled for yet another repair visit, but Lake Appliance has now refused to continue service because they don't believe the dryer is malfunctioning. The technicians failed to do their due diligence in confirming the dryer actually worked. They also inexplicably categorized some repair calls as "service calls," which prevents the warranty company from moving forward with a replacement. Overall the experience has been extremely disappointing, and the service has been terrible. As of today, my parents had to purchase a new dryer to replace the malfunctioning dryer. read more

I had a new refrigerator stop working after 8 months. The company had me call Lake Appliance Repair to set up an appointment. They came out and fixed the leak. The next day I had to call them back. Turns out the refrigerator was just no friggin' good. Parts up inside blew after his initial repair. Wasn't his fault. I watched the whole process. He explained what had happened. He then wrote the company and I received a new refrigerator. Then last month my wall oven went out. They came out and found the problem within minutes. Thank you Lake Appliance read more

I appreciate the response from the service technician but, we have exhausted all options. We have done everything he said to do and once again the dishwasher is BRAND NEW and not DRYING. It's difficult when you have already mentioned that you have tried these options and it's still not working and you're waiting to get contacted back. I still would appreciate a response and I'm not happy with the service. read more

My warranty company reassigned my stovetop issues to Lake Appliance after Sharper Service screwed up my stove top by ordering the wrong parts. Sharper refused to fix their mistake. I am so glad I was reassigned to Lake Appliance. The tech knew exactly what he was doing and what parts needed to be ordered. The parts came in a few days and my stove was fixed. This took over 2 months to get resolved. I wish I was assigned Lake Appliances to begin with. I would definitely use Lake appliances again. read more

UPDATE: OK!! They made it right!! We appreciate it!! He called and apologized for ghosting, as they had been super busy!! My dishwasher tanked, so extended warranty came thru and we ordered a new one On Tuesday 2/13 , they are coming out again to service that same fridge again. Ugghh!! 3rd times the charm. NEVER buy Samsung Appliances, EVER!! Stove quit the 1st year, 2 fridges needed repairs, now a dishwasher. Knock on wood the house dishwasher and washer/dryer survive. So far so good. I'm sure we will be getting a new fridge. Glad they contacted us. Moving up to a Star 3, mainly as you still have to go thru hell to get hold of anyone. Texts are fine by me, but answer them please. Glad they responded. Now back here this week for another service call. Samsung sucks, remember that. I am really confused about this appliance repair place, they have fixed my fridge in my house before and it broke within a week, called extended warranty again they came out and fixed my fridge, which is good. My icemaker is now working. I feel like I am being completely ghosted now, the day was January 23 and the repairman came out and fixed my fridge, before he left he put the bottom right fridge on freezer, so I lost all of my fruits and vegetables that were delivered the day that he was here because he made a comment about someone delivering out front. So I lost $125 worth of vegetables and fruits that were only in my fridge for one day, I had to throw all the lemons, grapefruit, lettuce, everything away because you don't freeze that stuff it went to mush. I was told by the sales guy that the manager would be contacting me, and I have just been ignored, I've left messages no one has called me. I want my $125 back for my groceries. I sent them a receipt of what I bought and I have heard nothing from them and I'm not very happy about that at all. It always says to text them so I do but they just ignore me and I'm being really nice about it too. I am a big reviewer, and this is really floored me. This was a good repair place, and I just don't understand why they're not coming out to fix my dishwasher now has nothing to do with the food in my fridge, but why isn't a sales manager making this right? It just seems so wrong to me. Very unprofessional why you won't fix the problem?? I will be happy to change my review if they stop ghosting me. I will be calling RC Willey this morning extended warranty and see why they are not coming out here to finish the job. Please, someone in the managerial department call me as soon as possible, you have my number I am just totally at a loss of why you won't take care of this issue. The repair man should've looked in the bottom right to make sure it wasn't a freezer before he set it on freeze. This is actually a zero star review. I'm totally miffed and flabbergasted. read more

They were contracted by my extended warranty company to repair an appliance that was running intermittently. They made five visits to try and fix the problem, but it persisted. They replaced the boards and it didn't help. Then they came and replaced another part. At the time of that visit the appliance was running, since it would run intermittently. Immediately after that visit it would not function at all. I called Lake appliance right away and it took them two weeks to come back out. On this visit the repairman said a different part from the one he replaced had gone bad. I pointed out that the only way that could have occurred was if that part coincidentally failed during the last repair, since it was running when he arrived. He just shrugged and said, well it could happen at any time so why not then. He told me he would order a replacement part and scheduled an appointment next week. I pointed out that after 5 visits over 5 months that it was time to deem the appliance unrepairable at which point the warranty company would replace it. He replied that he would never deem it unrepairable and that he has gone out as many as sixteen times on the same appliance. The part didn't come and when I called Lake appliance the day of the appointment they said the repairman was not comfortable coming back to my residence. They didn't even have the courtesy to tell me this ahead of time and I had rearranged my schedule that day to accommodate this visit. So now I've gone from an appliance that would function intermittently to one that is not functioning at all. read more

Customer service was able to get me an appt within a week of when fridge broke. Jason (technician) arrived on time. He was courteous and knowledgeable. He was able To order the broken part which arrived within a few days (they order directly from the manufacturer) Fridge is up an running again. read more

Purchased our microwave, range and dishwasher from from RC Wiley less than two years ago. The microwave started to spark, and disappointed we didn't get the extended warranty on the microwave. Called around and all the places said it's ok expensive to fix, and cheaper to buy another one. I started to shop for another one, but honestly I love my microwave. It's a higher end microwave/convection oven with all the bells and whistles. So, I ended up contacting Kitchen aid, and they were awesome! Concerned no one got burned, and set up the appointment. Our tech Tim was punctual with texts and calls of where he was at and the time he would arrive. Unfortunately parts have to be ordered, so hopefully Wednesday will be the day to repair. Next update will be 5 stars! I love my microwave! read more

It is impossible to speak to anyone. They guide you to text or email. $145 call out charge, which will be taken off if you accept their quote. Which I was willing to do. They would not confirm a date/time and I'm trying to navigate with a renter. Without access to a person it was far more trouble than it's worth texting to set up appointments and payment. Looking elsewhere. read more

I called there number sat on hold forever. So I decided to text them as they recommended. I did got a response asking for info on the appliance address and other questions, answered them all and sent it. NEVER got a response. NOTHING. I texted again this morning and NO RESPONSE. DO NOT USE THIEM. How can they be trusted if they will not communicate with a customer. VERY DISAPPOINTING read more

Our ice machine wasn't working properly with our five month old refrigerator. RC Wiley contacted Lake Appliance and set us up with an appointment six days out. Brett called me approximately 30 minutes prior to arriving on scene. Once Brett got here he went to work immediately, he confirmed we needed some new parts and proceeded to order what we needed and set up an install time and date. Brett had good communication skills, which led us to taking about Jeep's, LED lights, and a bad ass t-shirt I was wearing. Thanks Brett 5 stars. read more

Not in Lake Tahoe. I am so tired of these companies advertising that they are "at the lake." This company is in Reno. They say they only come to Tahoe 2 days a week. The set an appointment 2 to 3 weeks out and then texted a different date and time. They don't answer the phone for hours on end. The answer was that they are not available, except that the date I waited for is apparently a date they said they go to Tahoe. Not everyone is home all day, every day. I changed work and appointments to make the given time. You end up hostage, unless you can go without a washer and dryer for over a month. This is for the repair of a GE product purchased 8 months ago through Costco. Even more weird is that they claimed to have left me a voice-mail. I have no calls from them, except a text that has a different date and time and no explanation. read more

Randy did a wonderful job fixing the issue we've had with our Samsung refrigerator ice maker. It's finally working and not icing over. Samsung paid for the entire repair too due to a class action lawsuit they settled. Poor design of the in door icemakers. I highly recommend Lake Appliance Repair. They are easy to schedule with, responsive and reliable. read more

The technician was rude to my daughter and husband. Not to mention, I was lied to about the appliance storing an error code, so the technician made me look like an idiot. Employees are completely remote, so they do what they want. Said parts would be delivered 7 to 10 days, then another week to come back out to repair. Can't cancel or reschedule the appointment through the link they sent and on chat to cancel the appointment and no response. read more

Initially scheduled a appliance repair visit and I was not aware you needed to pay a fee to reserve your appointment. My appointment was cancelled after 24 hours. Next I scheduled a repair session through the manufacturer, Whirlpool, and they actually contacted Lake Appliance Repair and confirmed an appointment. On the day of the visit, no one showed up. Now I am one month out, still have a broken fridge, and need to start overlooking for an appliance repair company. I'm sure anyone else can do better than this place. read more

The technician patiently listened to our concerns and he educated us on the potential likelihood of the leaking problem we were having before the service was called. He tested all system boards as well as performed visual inspection on the murmuring of the fans, and claimed the fridge is in working order. Highly recommended. Since there isn't actual fixing needed, so we paid $145 for the service call, otherwise we would have to pay parts and labor minus the service call.. Highly recommended!! read more

James came out to fix my oven. He showed me exactly what the problem was and it was a pretty simple fix. He could've definitely charged me more and taken longer but he was very honest. I've use this company for other repairs and I'm always impressed with their customer service and integrity. Highly recommend James and Lake Appliance in general. read more

Worst customer service. They don't show up to appointments. Don't make the necessary repairs required under warranty and tell you to have maintenance take care of it. When you call for clarification because you are getting conflicting information, they are rude. Save yourself time and go elsewhere. read more

a deposit is required before a service appointment. the service man knocked at the door but did not ring the bell so he was not heard--he left. we were going to be charged the deposit even though we were here and were not notified as to what time the service man would arrive. after protesting, they agreed to send him back. he can several hours later , was pleasant but couldn't verify the problem. he invited us to call him back. FOR TWO DAYS WE WERE NOT CONTACTED. ON THIRD DAY we finally heard back that they could help us in another three days. unhapoy with long delays in receiving a return contact. read more

Took the day off. Called to verify they were still coming. They called back and said no. I've been waiting for an hour and a half. Wasted my time. Update: They didn't show up for the second appointment as well. No message that they were not coming. I had to call and see what was going on. I asked to speak to a manager. They were busy and I was told they would call me within a day. When calling in you are left on hold for up to 10 minutes, when you do get someone they are from a call center not in the US. I am very disappointed in service I have received. Update: 3 days now. Manager never called... Extremely disappointed in the service... Update Tech finally fixed the ice maker. But adjusted the settings to freezer for the refrigerator compartment. Froze all the fresh food. Had to throw it away. read more

We have used Lake Appliance Repair on several occasions. Their service is excellent. The first call was about dishwasher service. The technician analyzed the problem and told us that our dishwasher was not worth fixing. Therefore I replaced it instead of wasting money on repairs. The second call was about our oven. The technician investigated and found nothing wrong. He then spent considerable time locating and downloading supplemental documentation explaining the issues we were having. And all of this was done at the the minimal appointment rate. Their people are very courteous and helpful. They even wear shoe-covers when inside people's homes. They keep photographic records of all repair work for future reference. read more

Great experience dealing with Lake Appliance Repair. Our dryer died on us. Called and their front desk person (sorry, I can't remember her name) was very pleasant and professional. She patiently answered my questions, and told me that they would try to get a tech out as soon as possible. Michael, their tech, was able to fit us in on his way home. He was courteous and efficient. He fixed our dryer within 30 minutes. They also guarentee the parts and labor. Overall, I am glad I've found a good repair company for any future needs. read more

We were having problems with the ice and water dispenser on our new refrigerator which is still covered under the one year warranty. We reached out to our builder to make arrangements for someone to come and look at it. We were put in touch with Lake Appliance Repair and put on the schedule. Dane called the morning of our appointment to let us know he was on his way. He arrived and was able to find the problem quickly and communicated throughout the process. He was efficient and friendly and took the necessary personal protective equipment precautions which made us comfortable having him in our home during Covid-19. Overall it was a great experience! read more

Scheduled a repair apt for my sub-zero refrigerator. You need to prepay the $125 service fee - no problem, which I did. The scheduled apt widow was 12-4pm. I received a call from the technician at 10:30am day of, and could not hear any of the conversation. He was in a car, in the mountains. I indicated that I could not understand him and asked him to call back. Didn't happen. I tried calling back myself- redialing the number that called me. Unfortunately, that number routes to the local reno 775 number, which is not a local number. It us a further link to a national number where NO ONE answers. Conveniently, today, the entire national office was closed for training through 12pm. The tech showed up at my house at 11am. I was not home, which is why I scheduled the apt. in the window they provided (12-4). Calling back to the local 775 #, which routes to the national call center, and waiting on hold for over 20 minutes, I was told that the service tech canceled my apt as I was labeled as being a no show. I have no answer on a reschedule time, or what happens to my pre-paid $125 fee. Not a way to run a business. read more

The tech that services Incline Village is either lazy or has a goal of ruining your business reputation in Tahoe. Everytime we schedule repair...something happens. Tech didnt read the notes, we provided a code for him to enter, he ignores or the office doesnt provide, tech doesn't answer texts or calls, sorry tech is already back in Reno we will have to reschedule. Next available is a week from today. I'd avoid this company especially in Tahoe and especially if you need them to stick to their schedule and do what they say they will do. They used to provide good service but things have gotten gradually worse! Since a Manager won't call us...this is our only outlet. If you want to discuss feel free to reach out. read more
