A 1 Best Computer

Another real customer's A-1 nightmare – I've read a lot of reviews, but this is the first one in which the store owner alleges the bad reviews come from the competition--with no evidence whatever. I went to A-1 with a printed list of eight problems with my Macbook. A-1 promised to fix the problems within four days. Eight days later, A-1 had addressed one problem and hadn't fixed it. I told them I was dissatisfied with their services and that I wanted my computer back. They refused to return it, holding it hosting for a $160 ... read more

Wouldn't trust anyone else with my computer – I have gone to these guys several times and have had a good experience every time! They do good work in a timely fashion, they are knowledgeable, and very helpful. I will continue to go in whenever my computer needs to be fixed.

Glad I went in – I too have been using other guys to come to my home for computer repair--this time I tried my neighborhood business and was happy I did--they were friendly from the start--came when they said they would--fixed my problem in the time they said for the price they quoted--the owner even came along !! They were professional and good at what they do--I'm glad I went in

Best I have found – After using others -- including some good guys, I have concluded the A1 is the best. I used these guys three tijmes over the past year. Sometimes to fix problems & other times to set up a network. Each time, they have done everything I expected (at a fair price) and had a few additional good ideas. The techs act almost as if they are working on their own machines. I don't understand the negative reviews -- perhaps a disgruntled competitor.

YOU MUST GET SERVICE HERE – The staff at A1 best computers have such an incredable technical support and assistance team. I wouldn't think of going anywhere else for computer repairs!! I have 5 buldging discs in my back and can't carry my laundry basket much less a computer right now. I had to buy a new computer online and have it shipped. Eric Nording the new owner agreed to come to my house and pick up the old equipment and fix up the new computer at the shop. He then drove it back to my house to help me install and downlo... read more

Ballard Store – Went in to have the BIOS set for IDE to SATA drives and check out 2 adaptors. Jason looked at the adaptors and immediately said they were no good and I needed to buy a card from him. As I explained to a employee I had talked to earlier in the day ( a nice gentleman), I wanted the BIOS checked first. Jason repeated his first statement and I told him "never mind, I would take it to another store to have it checked." My wife and I took the parts to our car (30 feet away) and I looked back and Jason was standing ... read more

I don't recommend. Seems like a rip off to me. – Do your research before you pay for service from these guys. I had a fried motherboard in my laptop and almost EVERYWHERE I looked on-line sold them for $199 max. A-1 called and told me it would cost $299 for a refurbished, or $435(!!) for a brand new one. PLUS $20 Shipping, PLUS another $150 just to install it. Which I watched a tech do on youtube in about ten minutes. So I could have potentially paid $600. Ridiculous! When I went to pick it up I called them out on it. They h... read more

Best computer repair shop in Seattle. – I highly recommend these guys. I took my iMac in for upgrade. They were able to upgrade/add memory when the Apple repair store and another repair shop said it couldn't be done. When I picked up the computer, they helped me connect my new iPod and show me how to use it. The cost was way below what I expected to pay. They were very pleasant, patiently answered my questions and very professional. I was impressed. It was worth the 40 mile drive one way. I would use them again.
