A A A Sew Vac East

Exceptional service!!! I thoughts my sewing machine and serger were ruined but Sam fixed them like new in less time than he originally estimated. He even offered some helpful tips on some things I was doing wrong. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone I know.

Great service, reasonable rates, wonderful guy to deal with! Highly recommend you use them!

I can’t imagine what I can add to the long list of glowing reviews for AAA. I just picked up my Brother sewing machine and it runs better now than it has in 20 years. Sam and his business are a neighborhood treasure, the kind of place you go to when you want something done right. You should know that, probably because he is so good at what he does, you should expect to wait to have a repair done. He is busy and it’s evident from the dozens of vacuums line up in his back room. It’s worth the wait because he’s an honest guy who does exceptional work. His estimate was spot on for my repairs, and now my machine will run for another 20 years.

What a joke. Sam (the man in charge) tells me there’s a spring missing from my typewriter, and it’ll be 10 days to fix. Two weeks go by and he tells me he can’t find the parts to fix it. Such a waste of my time

Had a great experience with repairs on my Electrolux vacuum. I recommend this shop for service and repairs.

I would not give this business any star. For $ 240.00 I paid for what He (Sam) called complete overhaul, he didn’t do anything visible to my old Underwood Typewriter except replacing the ribbon. I even have doubts, that ribbon he put there is new. The Typewriter looked exactly the same as I brought to this shop 2 weeks ago. It was a total ripoff and I wouldn’t recommend this shop to anybody, not even my enemies. Shame on you Sam. I am even thinking on reporting him to Better Business Bureau.

I thought that my well-​used, ten-​year-​old Oreck had lived its life and was done. I took it to Sam, who fixed it up like new. I will be back for the annual service to keep the thing running like new.

This is the only place that I have my vacuums repaired. I have purchased two vacuums here. Sam has never failed to provide me with honest, reliable service and information. I recommend him enthusiastically!!!

I imagine this is what true customer service was like back in the days when people conducted business face-​to-​face rather than digitally. Sam is honest, helpful and knowledgeable. I took in a sewing machine that I had picked up at a yard sale, and he fixed it up for me so that it runs like new. Also took the time to walk me through the threading process and other aspects of the machine’s workings. Dealing with Sam was a pleasure.

took off work early to get my vacuum. I left it Saturday morning, Sam’s assistant said it wold be ready Tuesday night. Never got to it. He should have called or cared. None of that happened.

Superior service. This store saved my aging Singer from being replaced– $ 45 fix made all the difference.
This shop can be a bit hard to find for first time visitors; best to approach south on Monaco or west on Evans.
It is wedged between two other shops, one is a karate dojo.

We Unilocaled places to go for vacuum repair since my dirt devil whatchamacallit was not picking up a darn thing — I only have one room in my Apartment with carpet and it can’t even manage that… LOL.
We found this place that was relatively close to me and decided to give it a try. The man was great (Sam), he was quick to turn on my evil vacuum and told me the motor was going… bummer for me. I began to tell him my story and that I have a large hairy dog that always gives the vacuum a run for the money. He immediately suggested that I go for a bagged vacuum instead of bagless, that way the hair doesn’t get everywhere. He showed me a couple of bagged vacuums with a range in prices and showed me how to use them. He even had a supply of dog hair for testing on his rug.
I decided to get the cheaper of the two and once I decided on it Sam showed me how to change the belt on the vacuum and the reason for changing the belt. I feel my vacuum knowledge is higher now and I could actually repair my own vacuum and possibly others.
I walked out feeling great and with a new vacuum. Sam even took my old vacuum and said he would recycle it for me (how nice). Once home the vacuum worked great, picked up all the dog hair and all the little dirt everywhere. So nice to have a vacuum that works again.
Thanks again Sam. Would recommend this place to anyone. :)

AAA Sew Vac Typewriter East is a small shop that repairs everything it says in the name plus fax, VCR, TV, and stereos. I have been looking for a place that sold vacuum bags for my canister vacuum cleaner. They had them plus the filters and the smell good packets for my 20 year old Electrolux.
The service manager/​tech, Reggie, is nice and also offered other services for my machine. I teased him about bringing in my grandmother’s typewriter that is missing a leg to be fixed and he said, «Bring it; you would be surprised at what I can do.» I believe he could restore that old thing.
So if you are into going green and decide to get your home machines fixed instead of throwing them away for a new one, this is the place. And it is the place for all your vacuum cleaner and sewing machine supplies.
On the NW corner of Evans and Monaco on Evans.
