Never again. We had service done to our dishwasher a few months ago. The technician pulled it out of the space without unscrewing it from the cabinets, causing the clips to break and the unit to then have nothing to anchor it. He did the repair, shoved the dishwasher back in and left, leaving two plastic plugs on the floor that were supposed to go over the screw holes where he was supposed to screw the unit back in. \r

We thought the dishwasher rocked because the feet needed to be adjusted, which we did. But it wasn't right. It wants to fall out of the space every time we open the door! We finally had our contractor who had originally installed the dishwasher come in, he took a look and told us what had happened. We called Fred's and asked them to come out and fix this. After consultation with the ""Vice-President of the company"" they decided that they would come out but that we would have to pay for a service call and labor because the installation was out of warranty.\r

That may be true, but a business that made a mistake and cares about keeping its customers would eat the service call fee to make them happy. The technician's incompetence caused this problem, and they should fix it if asked to do so--regardless of the time that went by. There should be no statute of limitations on admitting to your error and making it right. That's just good business practice. We will NOT be using Fred's again.\r
