Sam was a pleasure to work with! We were assigned two other companies to work with through our home warranty who couldn't fix our refrigerator. We were finally able to pick our own company to use, Sam Appliance Repair, and Sam diagnosed and fixed the issue in no time. Highly recommended!

My stacked clothing dryer stopped working suddenly on Monday. I called expecting an answering machine but it was Sam. He asked questions, and arranged a visit within two days at a convenient time for me and had everything repaired in 1 hour. I've used Sam Appliance repair four prior times- equally excellent. The best!
