Hourly rate was quoted at the time of drop off. Machine was repaired but I found the charges to be excessive for the work requested.

They originally told me the repair would take a week. I called after two weeks, and it was still not done. They kept my vacuum for at least a month. They were very slow and did not have any reasonable answers for me. They eventually got it fixed, and it is working fine now. I know the vacuum is old, but they were just too slow. I would not use them again in the future.
Description of Work: I took my vacuum there for repairs.

Mr. Arbuckle was very polite and congenial and attended to the problem soon after my arrival. He was able to repair the machine while I waited (and the guy is over 80!).
Description of Work: The machine had issues with the takeup for the bobbin. Mr. Arbuckle, himself, attended to the repair, and got it working in short order. He even gave my daughter a lesson on the machine.

I TOOK MY VAC TO A1 AND THEY WANTED TO CHARGE ME $300 FOR THE REPAIRS.I WENT TO ARBUCKLES AND THEY FIXED IT FOR $95 DOLLARS. I AM GLAD THEY WERE HONEST. IT SAVED ME A LOT OF MONEY.
