Miracle Appliance Parts

Best place ever and Fred is the best!!! I truly cant say enough about how amazing Miracle Parts and Fred are! Fred was able to find us a substitute for a discontinued part that saved us from having to replace our $ 10 000 built in refrigerator. We are so so thankful!

My friend suggested I go see Fred at Miracle for a part I needed for my A/​C. His place is overflowing and I really mean overflowing with boxes and parts for everything you need. While there, I also asked for a refrigerator filter and he had it! He’s very knowledgeable and gives you detailed instructions. I’ll be back and what a great find. I love supporting local businesses.

Fred is the absolute best there is. I have an lg dryer and making a terrible noise. I went in, he helped diagnose and sent me home with several parts and told me to bring back what I don’t need and then he will charge me for just what I used. He is absolutely amazing, don’t go anywhere else he knows all!!!
Thank You Fred

If you do not live near Miracle Appliance Parts it is worth the drive, this place is incredible. I do not know the owners name but he is a really nice guy who is more interested in helping you than making a sale on an item you do not need.
My husband and I have been going here for years and not only have they had every part we needed, the advice given has save us so much money.

Short and sweet: My washer wasn’t working, I paid for a repair guy to diagnose it and he came in with a bid of $ 250 to fix it. He said he had to replace the drain pump. I told him I’d call him in the morning, then called Miracle to ask how much a drain pump costs. The super SUPER nice guy said that I likely don’t need a new one –just take out the old one, see if anything is stuck in it, let it air dry and put it back. I watched a YouTube video and did exactly as advised, problem solved. Lesson: Consider the advice of appliance repair guys with a grain of salt, take the advice of Miracle Appliance Parts as pure gold.

This place has anything and everything you need for appliances and other hard to find parts for various household items or projects. The owner, I believe his name is Fred is the nicest people you will ever do business with. I wasn’t sure about the size on a part I needed for my sink, so he gave it to me without paying. It was a $ 55 part. He said to go home and try it. If it fit, just come back and pay for it. You just don’t have these experiences as a customer these days. He has earned my business for life!

If Fred does not have the answer for your problem buy a new appliance. He is a storehouse of information and is more than happy to share it with you. He is a real asset to the people of Thousand Oaks and the surrounding areas. I recently had a problem with my LG washing machine not emptying. I took it apart and was ready to replace both the drain and circulator motor. I went to get the parts at Miracle and Fred took one look and said to only replace the drain motor. He told me to pack the rotor of the circulator motor with petroleum jelly and it should last another 4 – 5 years. You can buy the parts a little cheaper on the internet but Fred has them in stock, the advice is priceless and you know you are buying what you need to fix what is wrong the first time. I would give Fred six stars if they let me.

This place is awesome! Got all the parts I needed to fix my washer. The owner was super helpful and very honest.

Where do I begin… My refrigerator was making a buzzing noise and the temperature was dropping. I called several refrigerator technicians around the conejo valley and I had a licensed technician come out. I was told it was our computer, so we had it replaced. A few minutes later, the noise got even louder and it still was not cold. I was told it was our damper assembly. At this point, I was disappointed at this other company and decided to save some money and replace the damper assembly myself.
I called several appliance part stores for the specific part. I was pleasantly surprised when I came across Miracle Appliance and all the 5 star positive reviews.
Fred not only provided great customer service, but he was knowledgeable. Fred reassured me that it was the damper and that I could install it myself. I wish I would have spoken to him sooner. He is a kind, funny, and true people person! Make sure you do your research and troubleshoot as much as possible.
The refrigerator works perfectly!
Thank you so much Fred!

What a great resource to have in Thousand Oaks. I have dealt with Fred on 3 different times and each time he’s given great advice. Today I needed to find someone to repair my LG dryer and Fred knew exactly who to call. Great guy.

Well, regards to other reviews about a line out the door, that’s crap. Showed up and I was the only one there.
I do advise you do your research, and troubleshoot as much as possible. I told him I had a bad switch for the ice/​water dispenser, that it gets stuck in «on» position and makes a mess. I gave him the fridge model number and he said that the only parts list he has for that model is to buy the whole dispenser (online $ 80 – 100). But, I took the switch out and had a picture, and he was able to find one close enough, just by looking at it, to give me one that worked (with a small modification). But, this part was only $ 5! Awesome!
So, compared to those other places charging $ 50 for a service call, plus labor and I’m sure the $ 90 part, I paid $ 5 for an otherwise $ 150 – 200 job. Thank you for saving me that cash!

Treated me like a family member. Saved me $ 210 or a new gas dryer. I can’t recommend Miracle Appliance enough! Six stars!

Listen up people if you dont know FRED you dont know jack! FRED can be summed up in not so few words ie: kind, knowledgeable, reasonable, personable, incredible, prideful. You get the picture i could go on and on about the man but you just have to experience him for your own self. The art of actually DIY is dieing and hes helping us bring it back.
The world needs more people like FRED. He is 100% the American dream and doing what he loves everyday. which is helping people like you and me with open arms and a smile. If you are in retail or in any kind of people pleasing job of any kind take notes from FRED, he wrote the book on customer care!
Miracle appliances is the only way to go

What a gentleman. Fred knows what customer service is all about. He has every appliance part you may need and if not, he’ll get it the following day. By far the best appliance parts store, hands down.

As a military wife whose husband deploys frequently the last thing that is needed is an appliance breaking down on you. Fred helped us out tremendously and went above and beyond average customer service. His prices are reasonable and you get the part you need right away. Saved us a couple hundred dollars and I highly recommend giving him a call instead of ordering your parts online.

I would give Fred 10 stars if I could. Fred doesn’t specialize in appliance parts. He specializes in people. He does things the «old fashion» way. Taking care of his customers with knowledge to get the job done and not about the dollar. I first came here because of the great reviews but I didn’t know that I’d be blown away with how I was taken care of. Not only did he have the part I needed but he gave me tips to make the job easier and boy was it needed.
A couple days after I fixed my washing machine I had to go to Home Depot for an unrelated project. As I was walking by the appliance section, a customer had a question for a worker there about a dish washer repair. The guy didn’t know the answer and his coworker said «call Miracle Appliance. He’ll know.» That’s right, the big neighborhood store needed the «little guy».
I hope none of my appliances break. But I kinda want a reason to keep going back to Miracle Appliance.

Fred at Miracle Appliance is the God of Appliance Repair. There is a reason there is a line standing outside of his shop any given day of the week with people looking for help to DIY their broken appliance. I have fixed 2 fridges to date with his help. He is so fast and knowledgable about diagnosing your problem over the phone, then you bring in your broken part (or maybe unknown if it is broken), he tests it on the spot, and gives you a new part. I have probably saved over $ 1000 doing the repairs myself and in a fraction of the time waiting for a repair person to come to my house.
Fred– if you are reading these posts, everyone is terrified for when you finally retire. We all agreed in line the other day that we hope you get an apprentice one of these days to pass down your knowledge so that your business can continue to provide service to the local community. Keep up the great work!

He is the greatest parts man on earth. The last of a dying breed. Not to mention extremely friendly.
He will take as long as it takes to dig out or track down a 2 $ part. He also has knowledge of common issues in most machines.
Be ready with complete part numbers and he will have parts and a price within moments.

Just ran into Miracle to see Fred for a very obscure dishwasher rack piece. Not only did he have it in stock, he got down on the floor and installed it using my 3 year old son a his helper. My boy thought it was the greatest thing in the world.
I have been in to see Fred numerous times over the years and he is always a true master of customer service. In a world of big box stores, Miracle Appliance Parts is a throwback to a day where personal service and product knowledge were a hallmark of America.
Thank you Fred. I’m a customer for life.

I’ve got to confess to being biased … but this is a well deserved bias and maybe it will help YOU save thousands $$$$ the same as I have by coming here with your appliance repair questions and problems! Yes — read on and remember this place and you too can save an EASY $ 1000 or more with a few visits here!
So — first off — the short story — I had an appliance failing once a long long time ago… when I know nothing about these things and would generally think — oh, so my thing is breaking or failing so it is time to buy another fridge — or oven — or washing machine — etc. So I was talking to the guy at Best Buy and waxing on how I hate to spend the money on buying a whole new this or that? And the sales guy pauses silently then sort of made up his mind about something unknown — and begins telling me about this Miracle Appliance place? It was local and to get help to maybe FIX my failing appliance I should go there instead of buy a new what-​ever from him? (really?)
So on visiting the place — it is amazing — it has tons and tons of boxes with apparently spare parts for all manner of appliance or gizmo? There are usually people lined up ahead of you — often they are appliance repair guys in uniform — so it is obvious that this is where the repair guys get their parts?! Amazing.
What is more amazing is the fellow inside running the place ~ Fred. He is the diamond in the rough — the heart and soul of the place. He’s a walking fire-​breathing encyclopedia of knowledge about all things you might have in your home that use electricity! You can begin to describe what you have and he will FINISH your sentence snapping off model numbers and explain to you what is suspected — what is the likely problem — how to diagnose it in plain english — and here is the part to try … or maybe here is the alternate part to try if tha onedoesn’t work. O ~ M ~ G !!! He is an angel — and honest — and teaches so much about what is going on?!
Now for a coule specific examples. Once I came home from vacation — tired — and fell asleep while turning on the house heater (it was cold). In the middle of that evening I heard some kind of faint screetching… and I fell back asleep. Later that evening I was reawakened to a loud screeching! I went out to find it was coming from our hours heater. I shut it off. In the AM I noticed a heating and cooling repair guy working next door — what luck — I asked him to take a look at my heater? He declined as he had another appointment waiting — and he said he’d come back if I scheduled for a fee — and he left me thinking /​feeling … this guy has it good … maybe too easy and too good. SO … I thought … maybe Fred at Miracle Appliance might know who to refer me to?
When I explained my encounter with the heating repair guy — I was surprised to find Fred had parts for house heaters! He explained in careful step by step stages how to diagnose it — and he predicted it was 90% likely my motor blower needed replacing. I thought — wow — I need a whole new heater, eh? And NO… he explained it is EASY to replace the heater motor! So he had me shoot reference pictures — and to be careful to do this and that — step by step. I bought a motor from him for something like $ 135 or so… and in about 3 hours I was done. It was so easy. If I were not being so caareful I could have done it in an hour or so!
I immediately called around asking heating and A/​C guys what they charged to change my heater blower motor. They said they wanted $ 1300 – 1800!!! Some went on to say how oh yeah — it would take several hours for the job so they charge so and so to do it. Better then buying a new heater!!! Some heating guys said OH NO… you need to just buy a whole new heater for the house!!! Really??? And when I pretended to have an address in a lower income zip code while asking how much to do the job the heating and A/​C guys quoted 800‑1000 for the same job! Really??? So if I lie in a higher income area — the same job is up to double the cost!!! Thanks!!! And a simple motor swap is not the solution but they want to sell me a whole new heater system!!!
Fred saved me up to $ 1500+ easy with just this advice and his $ 135 motor.
At present I have a failing electric cook top at one of my rental properties. I have several rentals so I do a LOT of repair work through the years/​decades I’ve know Fred and Miracle Appliance. Fred and I now are on very friendly terms — and we talk about investments and real estate — and business in general sometimes after we finish about the broken thing at hand. I bring him donuts and coffee sometimes — and occasionally lunch. He has saved me so much it is just outrageous!!!
Give him a try — I shot a picture of the part for the diagnosis and solution. IF it has a different problem and this part is NOT needed I can return it? He trusts me — but the truth is I greatly respect and trust him.
