Michel’s Appliance Repair

Aces.
Reasonably priced &, as mentioned in other reviews, let’s you know what different things he’s going to check up front.
He also appreciates someone who knows what’s up with appliances (IAW user manuals & research), so if you’ve pre-​checked anything that might help him narrow a challenge down, bring it up.
he fixed a garage fridge & our front load washer (digital controls).

Fantastic Service!
Honest, Reliable. Everything you hope for in a repair service.
Came out for an estimate, Told me what part I needed and came back when I had the part.
Did more work than expected but still only charged the original estimate amount which was very reasonable.
Note: He doesn’t take phone calls while he is working so, you wait until he is between service.
It’s great because he stays focused until he’s done and he does this for everyone.
I’m happy to recommend Michel.

Michel is incredible. In a world where it is so hard to know someone’s true integrity, Michel goes above and beyond. He provides the BEST service bar none. I had ordered a part for my dryer that I had trouble installing. Michel came over and not only installed the part, but explained the whole process. There is NO ONE better. If you are looking for someone, look no further. Not enough stars to give.

Michael is awesome! My dryer door took a crap on me and, being new to Oceanside, I had NO idea who to call. I saw Michael on Unilocal and decided to call. Best decision I’ve ever made! A month or so later, my washer stopped working. Guess who I called?!
Michael doesn’t jerk you around. He doesn’t try to up sell you or tell you something else is broken. Both times I’ve called (one on a saturday, mind you!), he has set an appointment for same day. He even calls 30 min before his estimated window so that you aren’t waiting around for him.
Michael is extremely professional and FAIR. He fixes what is broken and doesn’t charge you an arm and a leg. I don’t trust anyone else but Michael with my appliances!

Best customer service and personality! If you want an honest appliance guy, he’s your man.

Dryer stopped so I called about 10 different appliance repair services. Michael gave me the best solutions over the phone to test. After I booked appoint. which was fast and professional.
After some testing determined dryer needed new motor. Got the pricing immediately and booked the installation date. Work was performed as I expected went well.
Michael has vast experience in all appliance repairs. Dishwashers, Refrigerators, washer dryers you name it. We spoke about his 30 years of experience. Well informed and professional. I would not hesitate recommending him. He is honest knowledgeable and experienced at a very fair price.
Thanks Michael

Solid work, affordable, and all around nice guy. Wish I could find many others like this! Used him for a couple years now and really appreciate the service.

I called Michel’s Appliance Repair for a microwave that wasn’t heating. Because he doesn’t service microwaves, he had Jimmy from Jim’s Appliance Repair call me. Jimmy was great. He came over within a half hour, assessed the problem, and quoted me a price for the part and labor. It took two days for the part to come in, and Jimmy returned as promised to fix the microwave. I was thrilled to have it back in service and not have to replace it, which would have been costly. Thanks for the great service!

Michel came to look at refrigerator that was not functioning properly, although, when he got there it seemed to be working fine. Because he wasn’t able to diagnose the problem with a high degree of confidence he did not charge me for the service call! That is what I call a straight-​up good guy! Thanks, Michel!

Called to fix my dryer he was really nice but he charged $ 120 and my dryer was NEVER fixed…
He said he would come back with a different part but he never came and never bothered to refund $ 120 which is simply dishonest.

Micheal is a gem! He is courteous, responsive, professional, honest and highly competent in appliance repair.

We love this company! Fast, reliable and reasonable! When the «other guy» had to keep coming back to fix the same machines (apartment complex) we tried out Michel and he fixed it right the first time. Have used him a few times now. Highly recommended :)

As a retired service business owner and now a landlord of multiple property’s for the last ten years ! I am very impressed with how you are treated at Michel’s appliance repair ! He is the best, most honest, sincere, business owner I have used ! I am very impressed with him, he tells when he is going to be there, and then he follows threw ! Amazing ! Great repairs, the first time ! Great advise ! And very fair prices ! Call him first and your problem will be fixed ! 5 Star service !

–On Time and called 15 minutes prior
–Fixed dryer for a very reasonable amount
–Continued to give suggestions on what I could do to prevent other appliances from breaking.
–Only took check or cash.
–Very nice guy. I’m glad I gave him the business.

We met Michel today when he came over to repair our ice maker. My wife called him yesterday to set up the appointment. She left a message and he called her back, promptly. He even quoted the repair price for us.
Prior to today’s appointment, he called us and let us know his estimated arrival time. He was on time and got right to work. Michel is courteous, knowledgeable and pleasant to speak with. He even provided my wife very helpful tips on keeping our other appliances working efficiently. He finished the job in about an hour and his rates are extremely reasonable.
In fact, we are so impressed that we are keeping his name and telephone number for future appliance repairs.
If you need an appliance repaired, I would highly recommend Michel!

Great repair!
Fast response. He even tried to help me fix it over the phone, free of charge. But this repair required him to come to my house and it was fixed in less than an hour.

I have to say I have never been so happy to have my Washer fixed up! Michael Thank you so much I appreciate it greatly. To whomever is trying to repair any appliances call Michael! He is not only a man you can trust but he is a very funny and kind person! Nothing but laughter as well as getting the job done! You also cannot beat the price of him fixing my washer… I should have called him sooner. I spent more money at the coin laundry than I did getting my washer fixed up. Thank You again Michael Eric and I are very happy with are clean clothes hahah

I called Michel with a dryer that wouldn’t heat. He diagnosed the problem over the phone, arrived a day or so later and had the issue resolved in no time at all. He even did so as the two of us had a great conversation and cracked bad jokes. A consummate professional and master of his craft with excellent service rates. Couldn’t ask for a better experience.

Michel is truly a great professional of today. He fully embraces 100% customer satisfaction and transparency. He was thoughtful since the first contact. First he tried to recommend a few things to try with our dishwasher before he would even come out. We tried those things unfortunately to no avail.
When it was time for him to come out he was flexible in offering a time a lot between 5:00 and 6:00 pm so we would not have to take time off work. Michel has true integrity since he always did what he says he would, when and how he said he would… Kudos!
Today he was on time, courteous, and educational. He taught me a lot of information not only about my dishwasher that needed fixing but also the washer, dryer, fridge and garbage disposal. We also talked about Unilocal in today’s world and I must say he totally gets it. Couldn’t be more satisfied with his quality, personal service for a fair price!
Thanks Michel!

FINALLY found an appliance repair guy that I can trust, but not only that, he’s also funny and fun to be around, chatty and interesting.
The drawer in my dishwasher fell apart and I called a few places and they just gave me astronomical estimates. Michael got the part number over the phone so I could save the visit charge, then showed up soon after with the part. It was a temporary fix and took him a few minutes so he said, «No charge.» He was ordering the part and would have to come back.
Forget that! I gave him $ 40 and he was really happy about that. Iwas really happy to find someone honest!
He came back a couple of days later with the ordered parts, took my dishwasher drawer completely apart and we drank coffee and chatted while he worked. Total cost was $ 150 with the ordered parts and compared to the other quotes, this was a bargain.
I will always call Michael when I have an appliance to repair. On his voicemail he says the names of the appliances he does not repair, such as GE refrigerators.
This guy is a real jewel and honest as the day is long.
