sSeveral days ago I called and made an appointment with this service provider for appliance repairs in my home. They told me I needed to be at home for a 4 hour window, which was difficult to arrange. Since the time period had almost expired this afternoon and I heard nothing, I called and asked when the serviceman would be coming. They claimed to have called my office earlier this afternoon and when I didn't answer -- unilaterally decided not to come to my home. Of course, since I wasn't at the office, I WAS AT HOME, I couldn't answer the phone at my office. NO ONE had said that any type of confirming call would be required. If they had, I would have given them my cell phone number which is in my pocket. This afternoon was totally wasted and the appliances still aren't repaired. WMT
Description of Work: I sat home all afternoon today waiting for a scheduled service call. NO ONE showed up. This is inexcusable. When you make an appointment with an A rated service provider on Angie's List you expect them to show up.

This was a very good experience, I would definitely recommend Economic Appliance Service and will call them again if I have any troubles with an appliance.
Description of Work: After we moved, our washing machine was making a lot of noise and would "walk" while running. I called Economic Appliance Service to come out and take a look at it to make sure something didn't get damaged during the move. Jason was the technician and he made sure everything looked okay and recommended vibration pads. After a couple months, the machine was still not operating as I thought it should, so I called the company to have someone come back to check it again. Jason came back and fixed the vibration pads and did a double check to make sure the machine was operating properly.

We spent the amount of the service call and really didn't get anything out of it (other then a chance to do a quick sweep/clean under the stove when he had the lower portion of it opened up...) The frustrating thing is that the oven still sometimes works and sometimes doesn't...
Description of Work: Service tech seemed less than 100% sure that the root cause he identified was THE cause of the problems with the oven. Tech was recommending replacement of the main control board. When he tried to locate and price the part we found the oven is just old enough that the part is no longer available from GE.

Not sure if I'll have them do the repairs again until I get a second opinion on total cost.
Description of Work: Technician came out to perform the troubleshooting. Very knowledgeable. Felt like I could trust his advice and service to be done. He made the mistake of throwing out estimates for parts while he was at the home. Total cost was estimated to be around $500-$600 for a microwave/oven combo fix and Dishwasher control panel repair from what he could tell and when they called with actual estimate, the total came to over just $1,000 not including the $100ish that we already paid to have him come out to look at the appliances in question. Not knowing anything about appliance repair or costs of parts, I don't know how such a large discrepancy. I'm getting a second opinion just because of the total difference in the at-home rough estimate cost versus the actual cost. Technician was very friendly and professional. The only issue at this time is the roughly 400-500 difference in the cost estimates from technician rough estimate to the actual estimate.

They are professionial and very fair people. I have used them in the past and will continue to use them. They are very trustworthy and won't try to cheat you. They are honest and will tell you the most cost effective way to solve the problem. For example, the last time they came to repair my washing machine, they told me it would be cheaper to replace it than the purchase the new parts. Don has been my technician the past few visits and he is very friendly and a good worker.

I would have been happier if the repair had been done completely by the first repairman but Economic was very good about promptly sending out another repairman who fixed the rest of the problem with the ice maker.
Description of Work: Economic's first repairman came exactly when he said he would and fixed part of the problem. However we found the major part of the problem with our refrigerator, the ice maker, had still not been fixed and let water run all over the kitchen floor. We called Economic and they sent out another repairman who diagnosed and fixed the problem. He also changed a filter that we hadn't realized needed to be changed. They did a very good job of fixing our refrigerator and cleaned up after themselves. I would certainly call them again for any other repairs we might have. Elaine Johnson

They scheduled a service call for the very next day, called before arrival and showed up promptly as planned. The serviceman was bright, energetic and professional. He diagnosed the problem in 5 seconds and fixed it within 20 minutes and I was back in business. I thought $165 was a bit expensive, but they were so fast and reliable and professional that I got over it. It was cheaper than buying a new washing machine.
Description of Work: My washing machine quit aggitating and it turned out to have a broken coupler, a common problem in washing machines. The coupler was replaced with a coupler that was described as more durable than the ones they made 7 years ago.

Our nine year old Kitchen Aid dishwasher sounded quite different because it had developed a problem that prevented it from getting the dishes completely clean. The Economic Appliance Service representative, Jason, called before he arrived exactly on schedule. Within twenty minutes Jason had diagnosed and fixed the problem, which involved two foreign objects stuck in the impeller such that water did not circulate properly in the dishwasher. After a total of thirty minutes, the service visit was completed, and the dishwasher is now as good as new. It was a very efficient, highly successful service visit. This is the second time in the past two years we have called Economic Appliance Service to repair our dishwasher, and each time they have delivered a totally successful outcome. Their level of professionalism and quality service is unsurpased, and we will continue to call on them as new appliance issues arise.
Description of Work: The interior water dispersing mechanism fed by the impeller within the dishwasher was completely disassembled, cleaned, and put back together.

We recently observed a problem with the performance of our nine year-old dishwasher. The dishes were not completely cleaned, and the dishwasher racks looked to be damaged. Economic Appliance was able to provide a simple solution and offered suggestions to improve the use of the dishwasher. Their service was professional from start to finish.

I was having problems with my dryer not heating up. I called them to check out the vent, which I thought might be backed up. My dryer still wasn't drying as well as it could be. It turns out that the problem was the lint that wasn't getting out of the vent. It was backing up, so they came out and cleaned it up. I was very pleased with the price. He really didn't charge me any more than he would for a basic service call. He suspected what the problem was right from the start. He checked the hoses and immediately went outside, which is when he found the problem. He was extremely knowledgeable and very professional.

Next time will double check prices charged before I write a check. Also will have more accurate questions to ask if I have to ever call any repair repair company again. (too long to tell whole story). Angie's List needs to add another catergory to "would you use this company again in the future?" Please add " __ Maybe" or "__ Depends".
Description of Work: Technician's first visit was December 16, 2010. He charged $64 for service call. Did diagnostic on our refrigerator. Had to special order parts for the refrigerator, so returned 12/20/10. Charged a second service call fee of $59.95 in addition to parts and "technical service time" of $60.00. The damper kit on Kenmore had failed causing food in refigerator side to freeze then warm up and the water filter froze/cracked causing water leakage. The damper kit was replaced. The new water filter did not have it's own box and no warranty info on it.

I called to say my refrigerator was running all the time and the noise was driving me nuts. When the repairman was there, I told him I'd already had another company check it out and they said it was within normal limits and there was nothing to be done. The refrigerator wasn't making noise when the Economic Appliance Service repairman was there, so he said it clearly wasn't running "all the time" but that replacing the cold control unit should solve the problem. He didn't have one with him and we scheduled a time for him to come back to install the part. He didn't call the afternoon of the second appointment. I left several voice mails on his cell phone, but he never responded. When I called the office, the woman who answered the phone said he was running late and would be there around 6 p.m. He never showed up. We rescheduled installation of the part. The serviceman arrived late. The new cold control unit had no effect on the noise. The owner agreed to remove the part and refund its cost. The owner arrived late. I called a few days later and requested a refund for the second (part installation) service call because they had misdiagnosed the problem and the part was never needed. The owner refused, citing my initial call when I said the refrigerator was running all the time. Based on that, he had told the repairman to replace the cold control. So if you use this company, be careful what you say in your initial call, because it will carry more weight than what the repairman sees when he inspects the unit. We had to replace the refrigerator. I wasn't happy that it cost me an extra $110 plus hanging around four times waiting for the Economic Appliance Service repairman to show up.

All went very well. The serviceman explained the problem to my husband. He had obviously been repairing machines for quite some time and was friendly and professional.

Our experience with Economic Appliance Service was 100% possitive. They were polite, accomodating, on time and best of all... fair. The repair tech determined there was nothing wrong with our dishwasher but noticed some installation issues that might have caused the leak. He recommended some quick fixes to the dishwasher and we were only charged the service call fee.

He was very fair and helpful and didn't charge for the visit.
Description of Work: Our refrigerator icemaker and water supply needed a new line. He checked it out and said we'd need to cut a hole in the basement ceiling to do it. Other than that, he felt we'd be capable of doing the repair ourselves. He told us what needed to be done.

Refuses to do Warranty work. Do not try.
Description of Work: Recommended by Frigidaire Extended Warranty Service for repair of 1 year old Refrigerator. Ice Maker in need of repair. Half way through description she interrupted me and stated they do not do warranty service any more. This should be an alert on the List and the warranty service so time isn't wasted trying to get them to help.
