A technician was sent out and was unable to remove the cooktop for repair. I was not there at that time but later I got a Stanley knife and removed a lot of the silicon holding the cooktop in place which would probably have allowed for removal so nothing was done. Their web site insisted on providing the correct model number before attending but… Read more
after the service call we were contacted saying no parts are available to repair this cooktop. The fault code was provided before the call so the cost of the technician attending was totally wasted as it could never been able to be repaired because the company obviously did not check availability of repair parts before sending a technician. All I got when I complained was dismissive argument.
Highly not recommended – I am extremely dissatisfied and cannot recommend their service. There are many superior companies out there. But If you decide to use their service, be sure to monitor the time the technician spends on your job. And always validate this time on the invoiced amount. I ended up paying more than what i was suppose to be paying them. I tried to fight… Read more
for this as much as i could but the service representative lady was very rude and unhelpful in providing a satisfactory solution.

Very happy – ABCO Appliances technician, Carlos, did an excellent job to replace my oven door after the hinges had corroded. He was efficient, on time and ensured everything was clean on leaving.
Positive reviews
Outstanding service – Carlos Silva did a very efficient and clean job swapping my old steam NEFF oven with the new. It only took him and his assistant under half an hour to do the swapping and repackaging the old oven. After they were gone , I found that the stopper for the water tank was missing and contacted service about it. Carlos was incredible in coming back to… Read more
my place to give me back the old stopper at the end of his working day. That is outstanding service indeed!
Use my stovetop better – Carlos Silva was very helpful showing me how to use my asco stove top properly, especially as I didn’t know the wok burner doesn’t work without the job. Much appreciated, I am happy to recommend Carlos.
Service Electrolux Oven – My wife and I wish to thank Carlos Silva for his service on our Electrolux Oven. He did a great job, very tidy and we're very happy with his work
Negative reviews
Appalling customer service – Tried to schedule a service and was met by a rude and quite entitled customer service representative ([Name Removed]), that offered very narrow time slots with complete disregard of our preferences. The company was automatically recommended by Harvey Norman / Bosch for an oven fix. If you have a choice, stay away.
Should have checked my faulty washing machine more thoroughly! – Replaced door seal on my ASKO machine but didn't check anything else. Machine oil leaked out onto my clothes during the next wash load. Not thorough enough with their checking. I'll never use them again.
Asko - great product, shame about the aftercare – Found the phone representative to be rude and indifferent from the start. Their technicians never carry parts so two service calls required which means you have to wait weeks for repairs. Have been happy with my Asko appliances but will probably not purchase again as I wouldn't want to deal with ABCO for technical support.

Really knowledgeable, efficient and helpful service – Having experienced the worst service - ABCO have so far been the superior choice for Service and integrity for washing machine repair in my experience. Without requesting upfront payment; their pricing is reasonable and Michael (the technician) was able to call earlier than expected, rang us and turned up at our place, worked on trying to… Read more
resolve the issues; and has gone away and sourced what was needed. The office has phoned us and advised what it will cost once the work is completed.
Thank you for taking on this job for us. Your assistance is very much appreciated.
Insinkerator Tap repair – We recently had a problem with our Insinkerator Tap, which was leaking. Carlos Silva, the ABCO technician, was fabulous. He was incredibly polite, knowledgeable and efficient. Thank you Carlos for resolving our problem. And thank you also Anita, for assisting us throughout the process.
Highly recommend this service – We used this service recently to fix our Bosch washing machine. Technicians were professional, efficient, and knowledgeable, and we had a follow up from one - Carlos Silva. The machine works perfectly now. Highly recommend this service.
Very Professional – Carlos installed my new Westinghouse Dishwasher, he was very courteous and professional showing me how the dishwasher worked and making sure everything was left clean and tidy when he left.
Carlos Silva – Carlos fitted my new insinkerator, he was on time and very efficient, he explained the product to me, how it worked and how to keep it clean, I will give him 12 out of ten. Show reply
Bosch dishwasher repair – Our dishwasher stopped working Carlos turned up and diagnosed the problem very quickly He returned when the part arrived and fixed everything perfectly He was friendly, polite, punctual and a pleasure to deal with
Microwave Service Call – I found ABCO Appliance Service to be extremely efficient with both office communication and technician, Carlos DaSilva. Carlos was punctual, professional and he did a great job. Will recommend company to others.
2011 Bosch washing machine repair – Carlos visited to see what was wrong, quickly identified the major problem, and another possible. Told me how to run it without making the problem worse. Returned 2 weeks later and fitted replacement parts. The possible problem was not problematic. He was quick and capable, and left the area clean & tidy, would definitely recommend. The company also services Miele.
Professional and Efficient – Carlos was on time, focused and efficient. He found the problem with our SMEG oven and fixed it wthout wasting any time. The whole process was painless and he left the area spotless. Would definitely recommend this service.
Beyond excellent – Just like to thank Abco for sending out Carlos to repair our Miele dishwasher. Few days earlier a technician from another company said we need a new dishwasher. The second opinion was more than worthwhile. A small valve was the problem. Thank you does not do this guy justice. Couldn't fault him in any way. Abco are lucky to have you Carlos. So were we. Cheers
Extraordinary prompt service – The serviceman Carlos was quick knowledgable and thorough in solving the problem with our Gaggenau coffee machine . He not only solved the problem but spent time cleaning the machine Our coffee hasnt tasted this good for a long time.
ABCO has an air of Quality – Carlos earned 5 gold stars . What a pleasure to be around. So quietly focussed with a complex ongoing problem . Eventually , never to give up. , he was successful in the end. A talented ,courteous, interesting gentleman . I would also add a Thank You to the lady on the phone She was so aware of what was happening and warm and helpful along the way.
Review Carlos Silva ABCO – Carlos from ABCO repaired our damaged glass oven door and was reliable, respectful and made our repair simple and stress-free. He was on-time too! Keep up the good work Carlos.
Andre will fix everything so it is as good as new! – I had Andre to fix my dryer and washing machine. He did a wonderful job and I am very happy with the service provided. He left the laundry clean and was very polite. Thank you Andre.
Wonderful service for Gaggenau appliances - gas cooktop & built in wall oven – Eighteen months ago an Abco technician said my oven could not be repaired as it was a “sealed unit”. When the cooktop starter needed to be replaced I booked a service call last week for both Gaggenau appliances which were more than 20 years old. Carlos Silva arrived on time and was able to solve the problem efficiently and gave wonderful service.… Read more
Because he knew parts were no longer available, his solution was to fashion 2 new stainless steel clips on the spot to do the oven repair. Terrific to have Carlos practically solve the problems to keep my appliances in good order. I will always ask for Carlos to service my Gaggenau, Bosch and Asko appliances! Thanks Carlos
Excellent service by Carlos – After a few service calls Carlos was assigned to fix our dishwasher. He was reliable and methodical solving the issue. He worked through till 6 pm. I wish all the technicians were as professional as Carlos.
Excellent service! – Carlos Silva was amazing. He explained everything that he did and put up with my asking him multiple questions. I'd definitely recommend him and therefore this company. We are using a burner that has never worked
Excellent Service – I have had a number of my appliances repaired by ABCO since 2013. Their service is reliable and efficient. The only downside to them being so good is that there can be a delay in being able to send someone out. I tried to get my oven serviced by them this month and was told it would be early February before they could attend to my request.
Best customer service from any company in years – Truly remarkable customer service. Between Anita and Michael it was hands down the best I have experienced from ANY business for a number of years. After the first phone call where I was advised the wait would be approximately 1 week, it took only 15 minutes for Anita to call back and say she had found a way to have someone out to me within the… Read more
hour. Michael arrived on time and found the job to be one of the most challenging he had seen in 19 years on the job.
Between the two of them, they went above and beyond to come up with a solution that was again solved within the hour.
I have had a challenging few months and the care and effort that this team went to could not be more appreciated or come at a more needed time.
I was not aware of Abco prior to this but I'm glad I found them and can highly recommend this team to anyone in need of appliance repair.
Thank you again Anita and Michael - you made a real difference this week
Outstanding – Carlos came and solved the problem with my Wok burner. He explained the cost of a replacement burner and courteously asked for a cloth to place on my stone bench top so as not to scratch it with the trivets. Exceptional service and would definitely ask for Carlos next time. He even texted after the job to check on billing. Thank you again Carlos.
Oven installed – Carlos and Zia came and installed my new oven. It looks great. They were super kind, efficient and polite. And they cleaned up afterwards. Took the rubbish away. Thank you guys.
Excellent Service – I have never used ABCO in the past until now when my fridge broke down. I called the company and spoke with Anita who knew exactly what was wrong and what i needed. Fridge was fixed in no time. Thanks Anita for helping out with this one, i had no idea what i was talking about. Thanks for being proactive and extremely helpful. Definitely be using you guys in the future.
About this company as an employer – This company rarely paid to me on time when I was working there since late last year. One day I said to the general manager that I wouldn’t like to work for the company anymore if they can’t pay me on time. They then quickly paid me. But after I left the company, it took them a couple of months to finalise my pay. The company never apologized to me.
Excellent service – I had my InSinkerator repaired by Carlos He was very polite obliging and done a terrific job The price is fair and reasonable I’m happy to recommend the Company and especially Carlos
ABCO APPLIANCE SERVICE - Absolutely extraordinary customer service – A new ASKO Oven purchased 2015 for which the warranty was never registered due to unforeseen personal circumstances. Oven had never been used. ASKO referred me to ABCO and Anita could not be more helpful. Appointment with ABCO was easy to make with contact in the 24 hours prior to calling and turned up on time. Michael came out to check it out… Read more
with a new part having to be ordered. Anita followed up and given the situation referred direct to ASKO which also turned out to be a positive experience. Anita kept in contact with me and displayed a determination to help me. Highly recommended business and a pleasure to deal with.
Excellent service – I had my cook top repaired by Carlos, he was polite, obliging and done an excellent job at a reasonable fee. I am happy to recommend the company and especially Carlos. Pamela from Randwick NSW
