I purchased a $400 used refrigerator. I was pleased with the sales, purchase and delivery. However, after several months and within the warranty period, the appliance started leaking on the inside. When I attempted to get it serviced per the warranty, the store offered to pick it up for $100 for repairs. I do not have a secondary refrigerator so I would be without adaquate food storage outside of a medium size ice chest for an unknown amount of time which was impractical and inconvenient. I did bring up my concern for my food. After no options were suggested to help me, I ended up calling an independent appliance repair service. The repairman gave a best guess assessment by text that turned out to be spot on. He fixed the minor problem in about 30 minutes and only needing to temporarily remove a few food items to complete the job. I spent $140, $40 over the store's warranty deductable with zero stress and 100% satisfaction. The warranties could be improved to accommodate customers without the luxury of a second refrigerator or the hassle of moving food elsewhere. Update: Dominic called after my review. He didn't want to believe that he didn't offer me a loaner. I calmly explained (many times) that if one was offerered, that I would have taken the offer in a heartbeat because I have never not used a warranty when necessary and it certainly would have been cheaper that what I ended up having to pay. I really tried hard to reason with him until he hung up on me after the arguing and gaslighting apparently didn't work. I do not recommend especially after how I was treated today.
