CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS
"Great experience all around. The build was ready in less than 24 hours! I'm happy with everything."
R.R. 4/11/2020 Micro Center North Jersey, NJ
"Had Jesse build a PC for me with stuff that I picked up from your store. He had it completed the same day and so far it's running like a dream.
Will definitely come back for future upgrades and have referred a few friends as well looking to upgrade."

"I went to Micro Center to inquire about building a new computer. I already had a concept for my new PC but Bradley took the time to answer my questions thoroughly and in tandem with a peer whom I was speaking with over the phone to get additional recommendations. The two of them were 95% in agreement with my total solution, and I appreciate that Bradley spent the entirety of the afternoon reviewing my build. His recommendations were solid and having only been to Micro Center in upper Ohio 7 years prior, this experience exceeded that visit by miles. There were no pressure sales, and I also appreciated the collaboration as opposed to stating what to buy.
This was my first AMD system in nearly 10 years, and I had quite a bit of hesitation coming from Intel. That said, the wait time to get my new machine home was minimal, and the technician who assembled the product was timely. I made it home, and I powered it on, installed Windows, and it's phenomenal. I don't have the patience to assemble a PC myself like I did years ago, and being in sales myself the approach and respect Bradley exhibited during my visit was a 10 across the board."

"I would give Adam an 11 if I could. He did an exceptional job making sure my build was done right."

"Ryan, who did the build, was also extremely helpful and the two actually talked at one point on the best way to solve a space issue while getting adequate cooling, and their knowledge was beyond anything I would have expected. Ryan also went out of his way several other times, including researching how to overcome a problem with overclocking the CPU with the motherboard I chose, and he also answered numerous questions.
Also, the cable management job he did while running everything inside the case to accommodate potentially 6 SATA devices was beautiful. I've been in computers since I was 7 years old, so over 40 years, and built many of my own. But this was the cleanest looking install I've ever seen since the days of Apple IIs. Absolutely love the work and experience."

"Second time shopping at Micro Center. Staff was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Purchased a motherboard, CPU, SSD, and RAM. PAid to have assembled for my 14-year-old son. The guy assembling the parts showed my son how it is put together and explained everything.
Outstanding customer service and so nice sharing their knowledge with a child getting into building computers, Micro Center will be the only place I will be making electronics purchases specifically because of the way they treat their customers. Keep up the great work!"

"I want to thank the team at my Micro Center location in Fairfax, VA. I received nothing but the best service and I would highly recommend anybody to stop by there if you have any computer needs. I literally knew nothing about building a PC and they helped me out with everything. I gave them a budget and took care of the rest. I want to especially thank Angel, Noah, and David for their help. I will definitely be back!"

"I came to MicroCenter with a list of components to help my son build his first computer. Honestly, I am fairly fluent with computers but have not actually built one myself. Chris approached us as we were looking at parts and politely asked if we needed help. Of course, we accepted. I told Chris our plan and showed him my list of parts and he helped us shop. As my son and I were a little indecisive about the computer case, Chris took my list and basically shopped for me. He came back in a short time and had almost ALL the parts I had on the list. For a couple of parts that were not on the list, Chris helped us pick out comparable parts that would compliment our build. Our intentions were to build the computer ourselves, but as I spoke to Chris, he advised us that Microcenter could build the computer for a fee. I was honestly not aware Microcenter offered that service. We had a pretty expensive build, so ultimately, we chose to have Micro Center’s techs build it for us so we did not wreck something. Amazing, we were there on a Sunday afternoon, and by Monday night, I received the call that the tech had completed the build. I picked it up on Tuesday, just two days after we purchased the parts.....WOW! I believe his name was Joe (Manager?) He helped me load it into my vehicle and thanked me for purchasing at your store. He was very pleasant and answered a couple quick questions I had.
I drove 2+ hours to your store with intentions of buying the majority of my parts there, the rest online, then building it ourselves. In the end, the service, knowledge of the staff, and friendliness of the store employees made me realize I just needed to do everything with MicroCenter. What a great experience! The rig runs great and looks really nice. Cable management was very good. P.S. Chris was very knowledgeable, polite, and helpful. He seemed just as excited to see my son get his first computer as we were."

"Francisco did a great job on my build. The hard tubing bends and wire management looks incredible and should be on the cover of PC Magazine!!
Thanks again. Will use on my next build."
