Im not a big fan of big box stores such as these. And really not the biggest fan of Bakersfield but where I live it is kind of a necessary evil. There is literally nothing in the town i live in. Or close to anyway. I dont even live in a town. But if you need electronics of any real kind and need them in an instant gratification kind of way then the only place you can go is to best buy. Its fine. Its just like every other best buy in the country. Pretty much everything you could ever need and a whole lot more you never knew you needed so much. So yeah. Its a best buy.

Best Buy is great. Employees are always very helpful. And I have had very little trouble finding what I need. Recently a new refrigerator....

Very well stocked and kept clean. I price matched a set of speakers that was $400 cheaper on Amazon, and they honored their price match guarantee. I actually paid full price for the speakers and found out they were cheaper on Amazon. I went back the next day and they still honored the price match. I love this place.

Amazing customer service we bought a used out of box item online for pick-up and when I got there they noticed the damage was significant and they ordered a brand new one and it was delivered to the house.... very pleased with the service they made accommodations and made sure we were happy instead of the usual oh well we have gotten from other places like Walmart. Definitely worth our loyalty

Love, Love, Love, Best Buy!! Only issue, tech related employees need to educate themselves further on the stuff they are selling. I am a tech enthusiast so maybe Im just picky, but its hard to find people who actually know about internals and computer parts.

The geek squad chat scheduled an appt to fix my printer and after I traveled to the store they tell me they dont fix printers, but I can recycle a $400 printer for $50 and buy a new one from them for $300 to $400. just say at the beginning you dont repair printers instead of wasting my gas and time!!!!!!!

We went inside to look at iPhone 13 pro and I wa determined to buy one so I went to the cellphone department. We waited for a while to have someone approach us so we can discuss purchase option a group of employees were chatting by the registers. They saw that we were standing by the iPhone 13 pro display but did nothing. So, we went to the Apple department by electronics to see if we can get someone to help us get an iPhone 13 Pro. We stood there for about 10 mins and the employee came, took care of the person that was there before us, and never came back. While waiting, I was looking at the iPhone features and wanted to see the camera so I tried lifting it, when the alarm suddenly started beeping. I felt responsible for the alarm so I waited for someone to come by and stop the alarm, but no one came. The same employee that came and took care of the other person before us just peaked at me from the electronics department as if I stole or did that it on purpose while it was still beeping. We went back to the cellphone department to see if we can get some help with purchasing an iPhone. Again, we just stood there, waiting. There was one employee by the register already helping a customer but there was 3 other employees standing and chatting there. We stood there patiently waiting to finish chatting but when they were done, they walked away from us. So we lined up at the cellphone department, after the employee was done helping the customer, we asked if we could get help getting an iPhone 13 Pro and she said it was out of stock. The associate she was chatting with looked over at us several times and Im pretty sure she didnt approach us because she already knew that the iPhone 13 Pro was already out of stock. Our visit lasted around 45mins and I was very upset about the customer service at this location.

Customer service was slow but it was because they are short-staffed. Please understand people. They work really hard to get to everyone in a organized manner. Bought a birthday present at a great price in perfect condition would definitely recommend this specific one to anyone.

Was wolling to spend 4k on home theater and waited for over 39 min for assistance then they answered a couple of questions and disappeared so we found the system we wanted and ordered it from the distributor at the same price with free shipping. Also was given wrong information on products. They need to hire or train thier people and get some with customer service experience

Called for geek squad to come out and fix my washing machine. Still have not receive the parts and they called to cancel my appointment even though the parts should have been here Monday but were not received. My washer has now been not working for two weeks, $100 in laundry mat and still my washer is broken. The extended warranty is horrible through this company, tuners in Bakersfield has the best service so shop at Urners for your appliances!!!

I purchased an ipad pro. $1299.00. these guys said theyd send it to my house, like they were doing me a solid. the corp office in kentucky, had the audacity to send a brand new ipad, via UPS, in nothing more than a padded envelope. can you believe that? when i called the corp office in kentucky, TWICE, i got hung up on. TWICE. i returned the new ipad (that was warped) and after waiting ANOTHER 10 days for it, had them send it to the store for me tompick up. this place has gone downhill. im going to find other ways to shop for electronics. what a joke.

Friend audio and entertainment store that claims to have it all I was Disturbed and shocked at the time I wasted going over there to find out they dont even have one single handheld microphone let alone Bluetooth microphones that are compatible with subwoofers recommend calling first before going down there assuming they have everything, because they dont. On top of that it was pretty difficult to get someone who knew what they were actually talking about, that is after a pretty good wait just to get someone to help me.

I dont go here as often as some. In fact, I tend to avoid it. The products and service are top notch, but the waiting for assistance can be a bit overwhelming. I happened to go there today in search of a particular item. Not only did they have what I wanted, but at a much lower price than I was prepared to spend. Wait time today was minimal. I definitely would recommend this place. I just dont personally have the patience to wait in the usual lines.

Ive spent about $3000 or more within the last 6 months or so. Everything was going great. I got an OLED tv (6-22-21). Great tv, no problem. (7-13-21) the tv started glitching on me and turning off. I decided to take it back and wanted to get a replacement (7-14-21). started having problems as soon as I got in the door. First they had to try it out to make sure it turned on and that I did not have a problem with, but then I saw how they handled taking it out of the box. You arent suppose to touch the screen or certain spots on the tv since its very slim and OLED. I left the stickers on that say where to touch and not to. The person helping me seemed annoyed and with an attitude. said it was past 15 days. I told her it was not my fault because it was defective. At this point I thought just give me my money and Im done, never coming back again. I mentioned that I was an elite member and the manager goes on the computer and checks. The fact that I was surprised everyone there but me. The manager then tells the person to give me a refund. The lady walks back over, still with that look on her face and give me my receipt. I just took it and left. Im done with BestBuy.

Went here 3 times to correct a mistake their cashier made. Ended up returning my item. So many issues with set up. They couldnt help me over the phone. I had to keep going back and forth. Needless to say I spent an hour and a half driving back and forth. I bought 3 different portable dvd players here also. All were returned because there only worked one time. I will not be back.

This place I went in and I was looking for a earphone for my PS3 I ask a person about it and they tell us yes come in and Ill see which one you like and I asked him does it work for the PS3 the guys see us I recommend this so I bought it 19.92 cents I think it was I got home I hook it up on my PS3 it did not work I call in the store they said they dont sell earpieces for PS3 when a guy inside told me that they do so if youre going to look for a store we need Circuit City back or radio check because Best Buy is just they just want to get there Pockets full of money because theyre not going to give you the right stuff

Love this place...💯. They greet you at the entrance and the personnel are always eager to help out. What I love the most about Best Buy is their insurance policy, if the item you purchase becomes defective, theyll try to fix it without 2 weeks and if it cannot be fixed theyll get you a new one on the spot...!!! Not many stores have that kind of service.

This is a great spot to come and pick up electronics, every time I’ve been here all the employees been pretty knowledgeable in their products. I feel like the lines have always been a little bit of an issue. I went there for store pick up, I did have to wait in line to get into the store but it was nice that they did have a second line for store pick up, they found my item pretty quickly.

At times it seems very hard to find someone to help you out. Thankfully I found someone and the right person the first time in my last visit. Lines weren’t long and I’m happy to see that there is still a box store with most of the things you’re looking for. I am sad to see the Samsung area not as ramped up as the apple. But at least they’re still kinda there. Have a question chase after the blue shirts.

I went to Best Buy to find an Ethernet networking card for my computer. I was disappointed when I found that they did not carry basic networking & computer parts. I had to satisfy myself with a USB Ethernet plug-in. I assume Best Buy is only interested in selling large items TVs for computers laptops and the such. I guess, Ill need to revise my perception of Best Buy in the future, as I thought it would be the go-to place to get a part for my computer when I needed it in Bakersfield. But that is not the case. Outside of this, their service was good, and the on floor sales workers were very helpful, informed, and accessible.I was impressed that they knew what they had, what they did not, and where it was located. Ultimately saving a lot of my time hunting for something that wasnt there. The store was clean and cared for and well stock for what it had. I am sorry that I could not give a better rating score but ultimately I was not satisfied. As an Electronics provider they do not provide the basic computer parts that are expected. I.E. motherboard, power, ethernet, sound, video, memory, and other plug-in computer parts basic to common tower system.

Well, Best Buy can be a little intimidating, do to its size. After walking around aimlessly I decided to bombard the next employee with a plethora of What do Is and How do Is! Somehow he seemed to understand my Electronics For Idiots lingo and found exactly what I needed. Kudos to management!

If Im shopping for electronics this is my first stop. Not only do they price match, they have a huge selection. Most importantly the service is good and the employees are always respectful and helpful. Even though I always spend to much there, thats mostly my fault. Why buy a 65 inch tv when theres a 85 inch right next to it!!
