Even though we ended up not having him do the repair, Pierre was honest, gracious and helpful by acknowledging our best option was to go through the warranty company (that we didn’t realize was still in force!). We appreciate his help and his honesty which likely saved us 100’s of dollars.
If I could give 0 stars I would. They were dispatched by my home warranty company to come out and fix my dishwasher. On the first scheduled appointment they gave me a window of 8-5 and never heard from anyone. Tried to contact which is pretty much impossible. Once I finally get someone the had exceeded there window and I had to reschedule. So here I am again today facing the same issue yet again!!!!! I wouldn’t not suggest doing business with them as you will be waisting your entire day for nothing and you will get nothing but them asking to reschedule yet again!!!!

I have a microwave not working 3 months but sears did not fix it
I have a microwave not working since Feb 2025. 4 technicians came so far. Everyone has some excuse not to work or do not know anything. Now its April 14th and still my microwave is broken and they cancel my appointment. They are not coming anymore. It seams sears now completly scam. Please avoid not to have sears.
The good part of the experience with Sears Home Services was Elijah, the young service tech. He was sent into a situation he was not expecting but stepped up to the plate and got the job done. The BAD part was trying to communicate with the company :( There is no way to talk to someone or even leave information on the work order form. To be fair, I did not contract with Sears, that was done by Electrolux the manufacturer after two other Service Companies turned down the work because of the small amount of money Electrolux was willing to pay. Once again, Kudos to Elijah and get it together Sears Home Services! When you have an uncommon problem, you may really need to talk to someone other than a computer voice.
This is my third dissatisfied review. Sears rescheduled our prepaid service over a week - after we waited for two weeks for repair of a refrigerator compressor. When the repairman came out over three weeks later, he ran out of gas to complete the soldering. He called his boss C. Yarber to inform him that he was almost done with the job but needed to go get more gas. The boss told the technician to reschedule the service for completion because the technician was not permitted to work overtime. Boss was upset that the technician had been working on the job for more than two hours. We asked the technician if we could speak with his boss, we wanted to plead our case. The technician responded," he's not going to change his mind." The boss did not seem to care about our needs. Therefore, we asked for a refund of 1,100. and decided to purchase a new fridge. We live in the Jacksonville area and will never do business with Sears again.
I have had seven appointments. They failed to show for the first three. The fourth a technician showed up and did a diagnostic. The next week a different technician showed up without the part or knowledge of the first diagnostic. He gave me an estimate (same as previous one and asked to be paid up front). A third technician came back and replaced the part and it didn’t work. Rescheduled for yesterday and did not show up again. It has been 41 days, I’ve paid $800 and it is still not fixed. Almost impossible to talk to a person and when you do they aren’t able to help.
Sears has the absolute worst customer service. I'm trying to get my oven and microwave repairs. Two appointment times they've showed up, seven appointments they've never showed up and not even a cancellation notice until after 5pm. Luckily, I work from home, so I'm here regardless. Most customers don't have that luxury and have to take off work. Then, when Sears doesn't show up that customer just lost eight hours of leave from work, because Sears gives you a window of 8am-5pm. If I hadn't already paid for the service call I would find someone else. When you call customer service, it's in another country. They have so much background noise, so it's difficult to understand them but they say the noise is on your end. Once this repair is complete, I will NEVER use the again.
The technician was great, honest, direct and respectful.
However the AI system is terrible. I needed help from a real person and couldn’t get it. The AI scheduled the technician for Monday but there was no information available for me to see, no one available to tell me anything definitive, and then late Monday I was told the appointment needed to be rescheduled. If you used human oversight this wouldn’t happen. AI can be more efficient but you still need customer service.
Ray has been here before. He does an excellent job, quickly and professionally. I'm always happy with the work done and the extra tips on keeping my appliances in the best working order.
Rafi is the best technician I've ever had, He was friendly and explained everything well. The whole experience was great from scheduling the appointment to the completion of the job.
Five stars for the gentlemen that came out today (4/8) but -1 for me having to take two afternoons off of work after they cancelled on me on Friday 4/4.
