again, subbed out service. still a crap shoot.

[greenflash245]

see if there is a jessup's store in the area. they are competitive and have their own employees doing the service

[Villages Kahuna]

Either Home Depot or Lowes on Black Friday, or sometimes a few days before or after. Cheapest prices of the year. Either will service what they sell.

In the last few years we've replaced our w/d and now range through Lowe's

There’s a similar situation with Verizon Wireless stores. Most of them in this area are independently owned and do not honor Verizon’s warranty. Getting back to Sears, there is a real Sears store in Ocala. Not sure if the Sears store in Leesburg is still open. As you may already know, Sears is close to bankruptcy. So their warranties may be worthless.

The Sears store in the paddock mall which is located in Ocala closed a couple of years ago.

We had a very good experience with MVP appliance in Leesburg.

We buy from Lowe’s or HD because of prompt, free delivery and haul away. The point of availability is well made. Shipments are not fast anymore. I saw a great deal on an LD set for my daughter at Best Buy yesterday. If their total cost is comparable, they are good to work with too.

We talked to a repair guy to see what he recommended and he said Maytag so we got ours at Home Depot

Two of my children moved here since the pandemic began. Both have had horrible experiences and delays with both online and local dealers. I guess the pandemic shut down many supply chains and they MIGHT be reopening now. My daughter waited over 3 months for her living room sofa to be delivered.
My son had his TV delivered and installed within 10 days of ordering from Best Buy. He waited more than 6 weeks for his living room sofa & entertainment center (from Kane's in Ocala) - and even then it was delivered piecemeal. He still does not have his bedroom set - except for the mattress & pillows. The furniture part is scheduled to come in mid-OCT. His dryer was delivered (Lowe's) about 4 weeks after being ordered and the washer kept being pushed off every few days and finally was to be delivered OCT 14. He just had to cancel and he reordered from Home Depot - who is delivering it next week. I only wish that all of the stores had mentioned the problems that they were having with deliveries so that they wouldn't have been so particular about what they wanted. I'm sure that they could have chosen other stuff (and been able to sit in their living rooms, sleep on their beds and washed their own clothes sooner - if they had been so advised.

Thx, I checked the Sears web site. Both Ocala and Leesburg Sears stores are closed. There is however a store in Starke. Who would have thought that there would be more business in Starke than Ocala!

We have had good experience with the Sears Appliance Store in Summerfield. We have also had good experience with the service inspections on our refrigerator. I would not hesitate to at least check them out. We also heard of some bad experiences with Loew's and Home Depot on their appliances, so it may be just a roll of the dice. Best Buy was very good to deal with when we bought our dishwasher so check them out as well.
