Samsung 18 cf Top freezer refrigerator/ freezer, 3 years old (2 years out of warranty). Freezer section is cold, but not really freezing cold at maximum output. Certified tech disassembled parts of the refrigerator, test probed and reassembled. After 45 minutes, Certified tech declared that the compressor needs to be replaced. Cost: $985 plus tax. A new Samsung refrigerator -- same exact model -- costs $900 today at Best Buy. The tech knew all this up front and said as much during the visit. So, I was handed a repair estimate and a bill for $89 covering the tech's visit. Certified's repair cost is ridiculous, outrageous price gouging (I checked Samsung compressor replacement part cost online, labor costs, etc.). I am convinced Certified is running a scam the goal of which is not to repair appliances, but to collect a profitable $89 per visit, regardless of whether or not someone is dumb enough to accept and proceed with Certified's insanely overpriced work, and that's assuming the tech is even competent enough to perform it. You be the judge. BTW, this is not a "fake review from a local competitor" as Certified's business owner replied on a negative Google review of this same outfit. Shame in YOU!
