I had such a wonderful experience here! I brought in my cordless Dyson and Oscar could not have been more honest, kind, and helpful. His pricing was fair, and my vacuum was ready within 24 hours.

When I came back to pick it up, he even carried it out to my car for me. Just genuinely above-and-beyond customer service. He’s been in business for over 20 years, and I can absolutely see why. So glad I found this place and would highly recommend!

This is one of those old school stores where the owner deeply cares, knows everything about his craft, and Amazon simply cannot replicate the experience. If you are considering buying a vacuum (especially a high end one) please do not purchase on Amazon. Go to a reputable distributor where you are ensured it’s a new (not refurbished… read full review
