    Dillon the Samsung guy is incredible. He helped me find a soundbar that was perfect for my space. Dillon’s knowledge is unbelievable. He is super kind, helpful, and probably the smartest, most knowledgeable guy I’ve ever spoken to about this stuff. He didn’t push me into anything I didn’t need, and made sure I left happy with my purchase. Everything I need moving forward, Dillon is my guy. Can’t recommend him enough. Thanks for all your help, consideration, and patience Dillon! You’re the man!

    I will never ever shop at Bestbuy anymore because of their stupid policies. You can get better after sales services like return or price match from Amazon.

    5 stars to Nathan in the electronics department who went above and beyond to support me in purchasing a TV. First he listened to my needs, then made practical recommendations for me. I live in a remote area and he walked me through the setup process to connect my wireless headphones in terms I could understand. Meant so much to me. Fabulous employee. Thank you.

    Absolute Worst customer service, unless the store has in stock what you need, do not buy anything for pick up or delivery. There is no way to contact the store directly about your purchase Wait time is at least 1 month for store transfers.

    In September 2024, I bought an Insignia top loading washer from Best Buy in Barrie. This past August it began to leak water onto the floor during the rinse cycle. If you buy an Insignia product, I strongly recommend you to purchase the Protect Plan they offer as you will need it. You'll need it because your average appliance repair guy will not be able to get the parts to fix your machine. Because it was still within the year, I had to find someone to come get this washer and physically bring it back to the store. To Best Buy's credit, they refunded me the purchase price and I bought an Amana top loader instead. Amana is made by Inglis and is fixable. Whirlpool and Maytag are also good choices.
