| - I went to Park Ridge Vacuum, because of the reviews I saw on Yelp about them. Sorry, but my experience was not what most of yours was.
First, the lady ? at the counter told me how much it would cost to fix my Electrolux vacuum. However, I was still curious to hear what the owner thought the estimate would be.
It turns out, the owner said that it "wasn't worth his time" to fix it (his exact words), and that I should just get rid of it. I told him it was a very, very expensive, high end Electrolux, that had worked great until the cord bent, and snapped in half. I didn't want to just get rid of it.
He proceeded to tell me a few more times that I should just get another vacuum, as he was rushing me out the door. Then, finally, he said I could try this place called Complete Vacuum in Scottsdale-he said the owner likes to tinker around and has the time to fix it. I went to Complete Vacuum, and it was horrible. I wish I would've looked at the Yelp reviews of that place before I went there. They have 1 star.
I can't help but wonder if the owner at Park Ridge referred me there as a joke or something. Maybe he was so abrupt, and not nice to me, because he saw my NY Mets license plate, and we were talking about how the Mets beat the Cubs in the Playoffs this past season. I could tell he was a big Cubs fan. I have no idea. In any case, I would not recommend this place.
There is an Electrolux/vacuum place called Aerus, that is in Chandler, on Alma School and Galveston, where the manager was nice, seemed honest, and gave a fair price.
