It went fantastic. In fact my entertainment center came earlier than scheduled and I rescheduled the appointment. They came out next day. They did a fantastic job.

The process to book is pretty simple. But have had an issue with last minute cancellations. The issue is I do mine on weekends if they don't have someone they will keep looking up to an hour before the appointment instead of cancelling the day prior. They should give a little more notice.

The housecleaners sent are not consistent. They let you know last minute when they need to send a different housecleaner but if you have to reschedule, you are charged a $15 fee to re-book.

It was perfect. I was really impressed with the gentleman that did the work.It took the full (2) hours to do the work and was a big job. He was professional and did an excellent job.

The housecleaner was late, I got a text a few minutes before they were supposed to be here, letting me know they were running late. They arrived about 30 minutes late.

We've had two cleanings booked through Handy. I've had to call them at least 6 or 7 times to get it straightened out. It just wasn't easy to work with.

I had to change the booking, but it was easy, and they were on time. Well the two installers was installer, one named Gene was incredible. The installation was finally done, it went well.

The app is not easy to use if you make a change, and you can never talk to anybody, all through the app. I understand they want to streamline, keep costs down. The company is late, which makes me late. So I feel like I have to work around their schedule. Almost always late. Scheduling issues. Not sure what the problems are. I try to work around them, but it can cause me issues on occasions. Handy sends you a dozen text messages, but then they are late. I have like some cleaners better than others, but I wasn't able to keep them.

Both the work and the individual who completed the assembly were excellent! The individual was both professional and friendly. He arrived on time and double checked his work!

The app is convenient but the service is mediocre at best. I've used the app for around 1 year and nearly every alternate time, I have a no show from the service personnel. While they offer a discount coupon of 10% or so when that happens, Handy takes full amount credit in the reverse i.e, when a cancellation occurs within 24 hours from the customer, which I think is questionable. The service personnel are mostly decent but I've had better service from local providers.
