The tech arrived on time and was very friendly. I told him about my problem - dishwasher not filling with water, and that I believe it was the water inlet valve. He said he would "take a look". The tech merely started the dishwasher and verified it was not filling with water. The tech then installed the part and checked to make sure the dishwasher was running. I was surprised when he told me the bill was $150 and that was with a discount for being a previous customer and supplying my own part. It is my fault that I did not ask for an estimate for the service, but I never imagined it would be so high. When I asked for an itemized receipt, all I got was a receipt for the total amount and that he had installed the part and told me one of the water shut off valves under the sink may need replaced. The tech thought this since he thought it was not completely shutting off but did nothing to verify that.
I will not be using Nebraska Home Appliance in the future without first asking for an estimate of the cost. I am upset with myself for being naive to think I would not be so badly overcharged.

He has to order the part--both warehouses
did not have it. He came back 3 days later and installed the part.
"Thank you so much for the kind words. I'm a little concerned about the ratings for everything not matching the comments, though. If there's something we can do to improve your experience, will you please give us a call?"
This person was honest, helpful, kept the room clean, and very professional.
