Description of Work: They did an excellent repair and service on my sewing machines. I don't recall the charge, but I do recall that I was very pleased with how reasonable it was.

Description of Work: I brought my old Singer Featherweight in because a thread had gotten wedged behind the bobbin assembly. I didn't have a tiny screwdriver to get the assembly off, so went to 35th Ave Sew & Vac. Because I knew exactly what the issue was, I went back to the service window instead of checking the machine in (didn't want to leave it - I'm in the middle of a quilt that's all over my dining room). The repair guy listened, took out the needed tiny screwdriver, made one turn, put a drop of oil in ... one quick turn to the flywheel and I was back in business. No charge! | |Then he talked to me about how to get the assembly off (first, go buy needed screwdriver at Lowe's or Harbor Freight), and how to clean out the lint so the feed dogs won't seize. Put me in such a good mood that I wandered around for 45 minutes buying fat quarters. | |Off-topic: their cotton fabric selection is the best I've seen in the Phoenix Metro area, with their '30s repro collection the best I've seen ANYWHERE, bricks-and-mortar or online.

Description of Work: I took my 35 year old Viking Sewing machine in to have the bobbin winding mechanism looked at as it was not working properly and made a loud noise. The service professional checked out my machine and did not charge me anything because he said that he could not get a part for it and could not really fix it.

I have an old, sturdy Singer sewing machine that completely stopped working. I figured it had multiple big problems, but it once worked like a charm and I did not want to pay top dollar for a new sewing machine. I took it to 35th Avenue Sew and Vac based on the high recommendations on Angies List. It took about three weeks or more to get it repaired because they had so many other sewing machines ahead in the queue. But once I got it back, I was thrilled that it worked like it was brand-new. I think it's a blast to visit this store because of all the fascinating quilts, quilt kits and fabrics. I could spend an entire afternoon there just for fun.

Description of Work: Serviced my sewing machine. It needed adjusting and they took care of it. They also have the largest fabric store I have ever seen. They have all kinds of craft kits and quilting kits. The people were great to deal with. They even offered to carry my sewing machine to the car for me when I went to pick it up.

I had damage to my machine due to moving to new house. Because of it my bobbin winder was bent against the machine top and wouldnt stay clicked into place. The side of the machine chipped off because of the impact. After bringing it in and Jason looking at the spring that I thought was the main problem as I couldnt get it to reattach after trying to repair it myself first, days earlier, he told me there was a piece broken off that was to hold the spring and make the bobbin winder click into place when used. He also fixed the bend and had a spare piece so my machine would work. He was fast and really knew his stuff and did all work right and quickly. He made it to where I could keep my first machine ever owned. He checked numerous times to make sure it would work properly with no issues. He was professional and very nice. He answered all my questions as I'm just learning how to use a machine. The cashier was friendly and told me about there special sales they were having. I appreciated that very much. The store is huge with all kinds of amazing things to look at and buy. They have classes, all kinds of amazing machines, tons of products for everything sewing. Awesome customer service. I have a new favorite place and worth the 25 minute drive.
Description of Work: Fixed bobbin winder, spring, and had spare part on hand to fix piece missing for spring.

The experience was okay. I thought they were a little pricey. I didn't know anybody else that had ever been recommended to me to do that kind of work, so I decided maybe they were worth it. The job was fine. It was pretty simple. I didn't have much to compare their price against. The quality was fine. They were professional.

My husband took the machine to the shop. Counter service was prompt. They cleaned it and adjusted the tension. It is now working perfectly. They indicated that the work would take 10 days to two weeks. I picked the machine up about 2 1/2 weeks later.
Description of Work: My very old (at least 20 years) sewing machine was not operating correctly -- the tension was too tight. I was unable to adjust it. In addition, the machine hadn't been cleaned in at least 18 years.

I had gone to a nearby Sewing and Vacuum repair and sales store to get an estimate for possible repair of my Hoover WindTunnel. The brush roller was not turning. The owner of this first shop claimed that my Hoover WindTunnel vacuum was repair prone and recommended a $30 diagnostic service. However, Consumer Reports has listed it as the #1 model so I instantly distrusted this shop and walked out. I visited 35th Ave Sewing Machine and Vacuum Cleaners based on other comments in Angie's List. I described the exact problem and was told all I needed was a $7 V Belt. I easily installed it myself.
Description of Work: Purchased a V Belt that operates the brush roller mechanism. I installed this myself by following the instruction manual.

If you re in a hurry, forget this outfit. But if you don't mind a little turnaround time, and you're not the sort who champs at the bit while waiting in line for a small staff to serve a large clientele, 35th Avenue Sew and Vac is a joy. They restored my sewing machine to like-new condition after I managed to break its innards. And they fixed a beloved old Rowenta iron, made in the days when Rowenta built an awesome product unlike anything available today at any price. In my latest encounter, I took a cheap Eureka vac-broom to the repair counter, after I took it apart to clean it and couldn't put it back together. When I dropped a bagful of parts on the service desk, the technician said to wait here. About fifteen minutes later, he came back with the gadget in one fully functional piece. The price? Three bucks.
Description of Work: In the past year I ve used 35th Avenue Sew & Vac to repair an iron, a vac-broom and a sewing machine. Average price has been about $20 to $30.
