[[HIGHLIGHT]]Nick took care of my dryer within 4 hours of first contact.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] He came with expected parts that needed replacement and provided fantastic service at a great price! read more

I used this company about three months ago and recently needed service on my dryer again. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Russ was the technician, and based on my experience with him, I would absolutely use this company again.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] He clearly explained what needed to be done and was both thorough and efficient throughout the repair. He handled the dryer with care, respected my home and workspace, and cleaned up so well afterward that I think my floors looked better than before he arrived. These days, it can be difficult not to feel like people are taking advantage of you, but I never felt that way with Russ. His honesty, professionalism, and character are truly rare to find. read more

I initially left a one-star review because though their responsiveness and timeliness were impeccable, the flat rate estimate was $69 and the actual service came to $199. But I am changing this to five stars because [[HIGHLIGHT]]the owner, Emil, actually called to apologize, explain the miscommunication, and offer a refund which was unexpected but truly appreciated[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. This is clearly a business who values their customer's experience, and I highly recommend trusting them with your service needs. Again the responsive from my initial request was quick and the technician was on-time and very professional. Thank you Emil, for understanding my concern and offering a solution. read more

Second Life - Some piece hanging from my dryer drum that wasn't there before the repair & they refused to reattach without me paying again - Appliances & Repair Near Me - Northridge, California

Alex was great we hit the holidays waiting for my part to come in but the kept me informed and updated and did the repair so fast

[[HIGHLIGHT]]They responded quickly, technican was knowledgeable and nice, quickly fixed ice maker, had part on him[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]],

My dryer heating element burned out from an electrical overload. The tech found out what part needed to be replaced and ordered it and installed it once the part came in. The technician was very knowledgeable and friendly. Grateful it works well! read more

Unprofessional. Took $$$ ($200) Had us wait 2.5 weeks (supposed to be 3-5 business days) to come back with the "part" just to trip the wire and blow up our socket. Left with nothing done and now a non-functioning outlet. Returned $140 since the issue wasn't remedied. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I had to call every day to check in on the status just for nothing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Sorry, but 0-star isn't an option. read more

***BEWARE - SCAM ALERT*** I paid $489 for a fridge repair that solved nothing. On Aug 18, I paid $245 upfront or they wouldn't order the part. On Aug 23, the tech installed a part that came in a plain cardboard box with no branding or model number, only a handwritten code, and swore it was "100% OEM." I called the office while he was onsite; they promised transparency but refused to provide part details. The tech threatened to uninstall the part unless I paid the remaining $244 immediately, so I paid under pressure. The issue never improved. The same tech came back Sept 1, cleaned dust that should have been addressed on visit #1, and changed his story, saying the heat was "normal." After weeks of follow-ups, the office finally said part info was "internal" and they would not provide proof of what I paid for. Industry standard is to disclose part numbers and OEM/aftermarket status. The only reason to withhold it is because they charged OEM prices for an aftermarket part. Don't trust their "new customer promo" -- if they don't rip you off the first time, they will the second. So now I'm out $489, the issue hasn't been fixed, and I've got an aftermarket part that will probably fail in the next few months. All thanks to Second Life. STAY AWAY!!! read more

Found them on yelp and requested service for my old Thermador freezer. The top part of my freezer kept icing. This was in April. They told me the cost to repair and I gave them $873. They've been here 4xs and the problem hasn't gone away-- it's now distributed to a different part of the freezer. It's now August and now they're ghosting me. Victor the tech is a nice guy but I want my freezer fixed and they did not do it. I wish they were just honest and said "this is all we can do at this point" instead of ghosting me. Or just tell me I need a new freezer. read more

Called for my fridge to be repaired. Misdiagnosed the issue with the fridge saying that it only required a cleaning and the problem would be resolved. The problem was not resolved and when later questioned, the company said "we are unable to repair the refrigerator because we could not locate the necessary replacement parts for your specific refrigerator brand." Clearly the true problem was known but we were incorrectly charged for a cleaning. All he did was vacuum the back and charged $250 for this service. They are unwilling to resolve there mess up as they said there is no warranty since this was a cleaning service. Stay away they will make up any excuse to make money. read more

Fast service and well priced. They showed up within hours on a Sunday to take a look at our dryer and were back first thing Tuesday morning with the part to fix it. Very happy with this company , will definitely call them again! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I reached out late but Sean still replied quickly and was able to schedule a technician to come out the following morning.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The technician was professional and able to fix my fridge the same day. I would definitely use them again if I ever need it. read more

I called Second Life LLC, DBA Authorized Services to repair a warrantied refrigerator. They claimed to be an authorized services affiliate of Dacor, and should have diagnosed and serviced the device under the manufacturer warranty. They ended up misdiagnosing the issue (claiming it was a faulty control board, when it was actually an unrelated electrical issue). They charged me for the misdiagnosis, and tried to charge me for parts and labor for an issue that didn't exist, and would not have fixed the appliance. I would have selected zero stars if this was an option. Do not bother contacting this company to fix any appliance under warranty, or expect them to diagnose the issue correctly. read more

Took ~$160, made the problem worse, had a flood in my kitchen after they supposedly fixed the leaking fridge problem. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I have all of my correspondence with them asking for a fix, or a refund. I've called them, just to get a run around that 'they've ordered a part and will call me when it's ready.'[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]No acknowledgement of the property damage, request for a refund, or the fact that they created an even larger problem and then did not even bother to return phones calls to fix it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's a bummer, because I used them a few years ago for another property I own, and it seemed to work out okay. Was hoping to use them for my personal residence. Now I'll never use them for any of my rental properties again. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]They're full of lies. I don't recommend this company to anyone. Please do yourself a favor and find someone else who will be honest and trustworthy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Said they needed to order the part for my washer and needed a down payment to order it. Gave them $200 and now I'm getting excuses and BS lies... There's nothing this company could Improve. They're a disappointment and a waste of money and time. I have decided not to do any business with them after being giving the run around telling me we need to talk to the tech about your part but he is busy concentrating on another job!??!!! Very poor service read more

Great customer support from the phone calls and texts, and the technician did great work. I had a busted freezer gasket, reached out via Yelp message on a Friday, got a good quote ($59 cheaper than the others) for a consultation visit. Vladimir arrived, assessed what we needed, and put in an order. The part arrived to Second LIfe in a manner of days, and by next Friday he returned and installed the part after we (and he further, onsite) defrosted the freezer in less than an hour and a half. Five stars all around, worth every penny. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Prompt and on time.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Upfront pricing. They did great work. They even fixed something I thought couldn't be.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Great service for me. This is my second time using the service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] This time the washing machine was seen by Amil. It had a mildew scent. Amil ordered the part and then came and replaced a hose over a few days. It was done in a timely manner. No issues and he also gave some good information for keeping the washing machine clean. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I look forward to seeing them on the next call.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

When your dishwasher decides not to work the day before Thanksgiving, you reach out and pray someone will answer. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Second Life responded right away and send a technician out within the hour.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Paul was great! He was professional, explained what he was doing and took his time to figure out what was going on. Of course the dishwasher was fine, but he did make suggestions on what soap to use, cleaning out the filter every week and rinsing dishes before putting into the dishwasher, to make sure everything would run accordingly. He cleaned the air gap and also cleaned out the drain pipe so everything would flow accordingly. While we were waiting for the dishwasher to cycle, we talked about our cats. My cats liked Paul and went up to him for pets. He showed me pictures of his. Great guy and knowledgeable! He put everything back when he was done. I paid $189 for the entire service and it was worth every penny! Highly recommend Second Life! And I'm thankful I don't have to wash dishes on Thanksgiving!!!!!! read more

Second Life really came through with an emergency repair to my portable dishwasher! [[HIGHLIGHT]]They were prompt in response time and the technician, Samil (so sorry if I'm spelling your name wrong, friend!) was knowledgeable and handled the issue easily.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Though the issue was just simply clearing out a clogged drain hose, he also took the time to swap out the hoses for new, longer ones I had purchased ages ago but never got around to changing. In his repair, he also managed to fix an issue I didn't even know I had-- my sink was leaking water from the hose connector for the dishwasher and now there's no dripping water or mist spraying all over my counters. Price was also competitive, and I definitely got my values worth with my dishwasher working good as new. read more

I called Second Life to fix My dishwasher and am pleased with their service. 1) Technician was dispatched promptly (within 3 hours) and arrived punctually. 2) he wore plastic shoe covers to not track up my floor. 3) he was polite and pleasant. 4) imho the charge was fair. 5) the dishwasher was not completely fixed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]my phone calls were answered even on a weekend.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] technician returned and changed a part. there was no additional charge. Dishwasher works fine now. read more

I used yelps service to find an appliance person same day for our dryer that was not heating! I had at least 5 companies messaging and I went with Second Life. Boy am I happy I did! The service tech was really young but wow was he knowledgeable and explained things so clearly. He even showed me exactly what was wrong and assured me he would be able to fix it. A few new parts, a little cleaning and lubing and my dryer was sparkling and so happy! Max was the best! I would recommend to everyone needing dryer repair! read more

We needed our LG washer repaired. Tech knew what was wrong very quickly and reported the issue clearly. The name second life is what got my attention and I believe the charge to repair is worth it if it provides me 4-5 more years with the same machine. read more

The service call fee was reasonable same day service on a Saturday without weekend fee hike. The technician was very nice took time to look at the problem of the refrigerator not cooling. Gave us an estimate in writing. Somehow I think when the technician moved the ice making box from inside, and perhaps by shutting down and reconnecting back, the refrigerator started to work cooling even better than before. May not knowing he was doing the right thing, he solved the problem!!! The end result is what matters to me. So thank you! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I can't recommend 2nd Life enough! I called them because my dryer stopped heating and my washer was having drain issues.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They were fast to respond and diagnosed the problems right away. Not only did they get everything working perfectly again, but they also took the time to clean all the dust and lint out of the machines. It's rare to find service this thorough. I really appreciate their hard work! read more

They diagnosed a wine fridge for a fair price. But the parts were too expensive. Not their fault. They did a great job.

Andrei did a great job fixing my dryer. He was professional and efficient. Will be calling second life again!

This does not seem reputable at all. A "service repair man" comes out to diagnose the problem for $120. Yet, he only barely looks into the refrigerator, he did not even glance into the machinery of the fridge. After 8 minutes of doing nothing, he gives me a quote of $1300 without ever even diagnosing the problem, or telling me what will be involved in fixing it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I asked, over and over what the diagnosis is? He could not answer.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I paid for a diagnostic visit and was never provided a diagnosis, just verbal a list of all possible issues...which I could have Googled myself. So, the options are to pay for $1300 for who knows what? Or lose $120. Do not, I repeat, do not pay this company for a diagnostic visit. It is a scam. read more

Truly so amazing. Daniel came on time and fixed everything. So friendly and knowledgeable. What a fantastic company. A+ all the way... thank you. read more

Love this place. They were the quickest to send someone out to look at my washer and when comparing quotes for labor and parts, they were also priced best. And they're great communicators as well. Their mechanics have been punctual and nice and seemed honest which is do rare these days. Recommended them to friends who also had good experiences. read more
