He originally showed up, diagnosed the problem, and had to order some expensive parts. He required his $100 service fee. He left, went home and got prices for the repair. Parts were going to run $600, so he required $500 up front because the parts were so expensive, so he sent me an online bill, which I paid. So, he now has $600. This is on May 22. I call him periodically, no return answer, no return calls. I finally get hold of him and he states the guy he was getting parts from never mailed the parts for my stove. He said his wife spent 5 hours trying to find parts and couldn't find any and that I could search for them myself if I wanted. Said he did however have the ventahood part. I got online, go on the DeLonghi website and found the parts. Called Steven back and told him they had all the parts. He told me to order the parts and he would deduct the cost from the final bill. Total cost of parts, $105. Now I'm out $705. Parts come in, I call him, and he shows up at my house with two other men. They spend the next two hours going in and out of my bathroom, soaking my towels (don't know why). I am handicapped and was in my living room having to lay down because I was ill, but my adult daughter was in the kitchen. Next thing I know one guy is in the car with it running, the other two come into the living room saying my oven can't be fixed, that the part doesn't fit (this part came directly from the manufacturer for this specific stove), also stating that other things are broken and that the stove is not worth fixing, and with the cost of the broken door and the other broken things, it's just not worth it, that the warranty place will just have to replace the stove. The younger man then makes a remark that the company is out of business anyway, to which I reply that they are not out of business, the stove is not that old and I just ordered those parts and all the parts are available. Steven states to have the warranty place call him and he will tell them about the stove and refund whatever money I have overpaid him. They then walk out the front door. By the time I get up from my chair and walk about 12 feet to the front door, their car is driving down the street away from my house. He didn't even leave an invoice, an explanation or anything, and he never touched the ventahood. I go into my kitchen and discover that the door on my oven is broken! I don't know what they were doing in there, but they broke the door and then raced out of my house before I could discover it! DO NOT USE THIS MAN. HE IS DISHONEST! He has not returned my phone calls or the phone calls from my warranty company.
