Vlad was great—competent and professional. Oven went from totally kaputt to working fine. Update—Nov 2023–Arsen did a great job to fix our clothes dryer, which we had given up hope on. Can’t praise this company enough! Update--Feb 2026. Again, Vlad did a great job in fixing our oven. Sam's Appliances has always come through for us!
