I have gone down this road with a new refrigerator that obviously looked like it as added.  This time I decided to pay what ever it cost for a new compressor so everything would look right.  I expected to pay around $800 for the repair, if that was even possible.  I called Prestige Appliances which is a family owned business off of Green Valley Rd in El Dorado Hills, and they said bring it in.  They could have easily sold me a new compressor, but they told me it was another part.  They even did another little repair that was going to give me a problem soon, and the cost was well under $300.  Now that was a great surprise.  While I’m sure not every story turns out this well, they were quick to get the repair done, and they gave me my old parts.  I know many of you have had ice for your drinks from this ice maker, so before you buy new, consider a repair.   You can check them out on their web site www.prestigeappliance.com   or give them a call.  As I said they are a family own business Ian, Mandy & Sam Freer, husband, wife and son, and they work out of a shop at their house.  Mandy usually answers the phone.

Refrigerator & Ice Maker Repair - Prestige Appliances


Refrigerator & Ice Maker Repair as well as home appliances.  The ice maker on Dithpicable stopped working, and I was certain it was the compressor.  New ones started around $1,100 and went up from there.  Of course U-Line, the maker, changed models and of course the sizes.  So new ones would not fit the space.
