K from North York

Be careful. I called QuickFix Appliances because the hourly price seemed fair. When the technician arrived, he diagnosed that my dryer, which was not working right, should be subjected to a simple maintenance to return to work. He would lubricate it, clean it, because it seemed that the excess of powder internally could explain its problem. The cost: $200, but "it is important to do, because in 80% of cases our service would solve it". Logically, he explains it with a good dose of persuasion. The only different phrase: "if my service does not work, perhaps we have to change the engine - in 60% of the cases is the engine - but the decision is yours." On the grounds that 80% have solved the problem, I accepted the proposal. Faced with the option of spending $450 for a new dryer (and once the technician is already there...) I decided to make the service ... And, of course, I did not have my problem solved. Then the thecnician sayd, "but the decision was yours!" And comes the second part. "The engine will surely solve the problem, and we give 1 year warranty, can trust." He has budgeted $500 for the engine. Crazy. I then showed him on the internet that a new dryer would cost $450 and I had already spent $200 with him. He then told me he would give a discount, which made the engine price drop to $350. The engine was ordered and arrived two days later. Then came the surprise. The technician came to install, took apart the entire machine .... and suddenly a tool of him appears broken because "a part of my old engine did not want to separate." "Without this piece, nothing done", he said. "You have to pay $200 for this piece and I 'll change the belts on my own" (belt, moreover, that was already inside the engine box when it was delivered). You get no option. There 's nowhere to run . Besides all, the guy is harsh in the speech. Well, in the end I spent over $700 to have my dryer working (it is working until now, a month after the service - I don't know for how long). And I see on the internet, every day, since then, deals for good NEW dryers of the same brand of mine for under $500. Please respect your money: do not fall into the deception of QuickFix Appliances
