Small Appliance Repair
When we talk about the world changing and things not being repairable, this is true more for small appliances than anything else. We use to fix any small appliance, but now there is next to nothing that is repairable. There is not a toaster, blender, food processor or even an Iron that has internal parts available. Which means that repairs on these is next to impossible, and for the few things that we could fix without manufactures offering parts such as a cord, the amount in labor alone not including parts generally surpasses the cost of just replacing the item.So as far as Blenders*, Toasters, Dehydrators, Food Processor, Hand Mixer, Hand Blender, Mixers*, Coffee Maker, Irons, Etc we have deemed these unrepairable, and disposable items regardless of the Brand** If the items is under warranty contact the manufacture directly, outside of warranty they are garbage. There are two exceptions to this rule, KitchenAid Stand Mixers and Vitamix Blenders, new versions sold in stores as of 2021 have no parts available for either, if it is older than that there is limited parts available, and we may be able to repair it on a case by case basis.
For KitchenAid mixers, we offer parts, and repair, however our repair rate is $90/per hour and most jobs take 1 - 2 hours to complete, which means you are looking at a minimum of 90 in labor plus parts plus tax, most 6 quart repairs will run you 150-200 and most 4.5 or 5 quart repairs will run you 180-200. New mixers start about $300 - - but remember that the new mixers sold in stores have no parts available. If your mixer is worth $200 please bring it in and we will give you a better price quote, or if you are handy tear into it and diagnose it, and we can sell you the parts to do it yourself.
For Vitamix Blenders, we can get parts for the older Vitamix blenders, however new "household" models have no parts available to us. On the older units we have Jars, Switches, Potentiometers, Drive Sockets, Motors and more. Vitamix Blender repairs start at $150 and go up from there, please feel free to call us with your model number or bring it in and we can give you a more exact price quote.
