Thank you Micro Center for doing the right thing.I had an arduous experience at first that had cost me travel time and disappointment with your establishment. I was patient and called the headquarters that ultimately led me to cross paths with Mr. Michael Graf. What a professional gentleman, he is packed with technical expertise. I was placed on a reservation list for the component, Michael advised me when my component arrived. When I visited personally with Michael he assisted my Son and I perfectly and helped us to make the right choices for the remaining gaming computer components to derive the best performance. It was a great experience and we are very grateful. Thanks Micro Center, Headquarters and Michael! Sincerely Vincent & Gianni.

This is the new and improved reincarnation of Frys Electronics. Places like Best Buy and Gamestop wishes they were as cool as this place. All other has-been stores like Best Buy could learn a thing or to on the policy this amazing store uses when it comes to being able to provide their customers with graphics cards for a great price.

Went to Micro Center to pick up wireless keyboard with mouse, camera for meeting, and speakers for sound. Found a employee and his assistant for walking us to every item made the process streamlined. Will definitely go back for other equipment needed for little office. Thanks for a great and easy experience.

Ive been here a few times, they are so helpful and great at their jobs. I especially recommend Robert, at least in one visit he literally made the sale for me. By his service, kindness and willingness to help. I highly recommend this Microcenter!

This is the ONE and ONLY place you need to go to for computer supplies of all types. They also have great prices on TVs as well.Store inventory also includes a full area dedicated to Dell and Apple equipment and supplies. You can also get networking hardware, A/V supplies and equipment, and MANY, many more items. A GREAT place to get your nerd on.Their personnel are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. However, they seem to be on a type of commission or merit system which drives some of them to be a bit too in your face with the can I help you with something. This is even after you say that you just want to look.Be prepared to wait in a long line for checkout during busy times such as weekends. They go fast most of the time but its still VERY long.

Ive spent more than 6k ( you can check my account) over the course of a few years at this location and more at the Jersey one. My issue is, Im going in to swap out a laptop for a bigger better one. The people at the laptop area have horrendous soft skills. They maybe knowledgeable on the machines, but their customer service skills are atrocious. Dude literally just pointed to one laptop and didnt seem interested. I was furious, just returned it and didnt buy another one. Jana T at the counter however was 100x better than those salesman, you should have HER selling laptops, and she was so kind and supportive that I walked out not that upset. Not sure if Ill be back or not, you dont do this to long term customers.

My PC built is not posting, not powering. Went to this store yesterday at around 2 pm, a nice kid was trying to diagnose it on the spot, but I knew right away that he was not going to be able to help me. He was trying to run some tests on mi PC and then he asks me: was this working recently? to which I replied: yes, until a couple of weeks ago. Then he goes: well, its weird because everything its completely dead. Then I said: you might want to connect the PS cable to the motherboard, and also connect the PS cable to the PSU. All the cables were unplugged in my PC, which I did myself before, and he hadnt caught that within the first ten minutes!Of course he was not able to diagnose my PC, I was told it could be either the Motherboard, or the processor, or the RAM. I got zero assurances, and left the store the same way I came, without knowing whats wrong with my PC. He recommended for me to buy a new motherboard ($400) and replace it and see what happens, then a new processor ($300) and see what happens also. Like is not costly at all.I was, of course charged the $40 bucks diagnosis fee. But, it caught my attention that a woman next to me was able to leave her PC there for 24-48 hours for a diagnosis, as told by another rep. Mine was done on the spot, by a guy who knows less than I do. Its not the kids fault, whoever hired him clearly is not doing a proper job. Bad experience overall, felt like a scam

Microcenter is the best PC/electronics hobbyists supply store. They have good materials and the fairest prices with a knowledgeable staff. At a time when they could have been scalping video cards and power supplies they continued to operate ethically and tried to make sure the hard to find items were distributed instead of simply being handed to bots and scalpers and scalper bots. Theyve earned a great deal of my loyalty.

After having a bad experience here the owner and gm reach out to rectify the situation I had an issue buying open boxed fans. I do recommend checking your open boxed purchases before leaving but I feel the gm did his due diligence in making it right. He made me feel like an appreciated customer. Mr.Miller not only made me feel better about the situation but made me feel comfortable to go back to the store to shop again.

This was my first trip to Micro Center and overall I was very satisfied. I was surprised with how much stuff they have there!We went for a specific fan splitter for our PC & found what we needed without issues. The store was clearly laid out & isle signs are accurate.I didnt get hounded by the staff while I was there like when you go to Best Buy or other stores. We had one gentleman politely ask if we were able to find what we were looking for or did we need help. We said we were good & didnt get bothered again. Would definitely come here again!

This has to be the worse yet customer service of any business I have seen. I was patient. I tried to get to the proper department so I could get the help i needed. I tried contacting you guys in anyway i could. I was polite. But not only i never got the assistance i needed. There was no follow up. No interest in letting me know what was being done. And now not even a measly answer. My first purchase with you guys was 400 dollars. It might not be much but you just lost a customer due to poor service.Nobody should be made to wait half a month and still not get the proper assistance. 18 days to be exact.

BEWARE if you are purchasing desktop.I purchased used one from this location for gaming. The desktop was solid packed. I went home unpacked it and tried installing game. For the game installation, the CPU wasnt compatible. So I took it back to the store to return.Guess what happened?They said they will open the desktop flap and do the check. Sounds fair; they have to check if hardware is in place and not broken. But what they came up with couple of dead and web tangled moths inside the desktop.Then they said there are moths inside the desktop and our policy is NO return in that case. I brought the desktop back to store within 2 days.They didnt ask me during purchase to open the desktop and check if there are moths inside.if that is a return policy then asking customer to check during purchase should also be a policy.How would I possibly manage to put those web tangled moths inside the desktop? What would have been my motivation to do that?I never opened the Desktop flap.

Not really that big, I was expecting more the way everyone talked it up. We drove in front out of town, about 2 hours, for another event and thought wed stop in and see what they had. Guess I was expecting something like Frys, nope. Staff was visually helpful as they made sure they said something as they went by but few actually wanted to help. Huge shout out to the young salesman by the Oculus VR. Thank you for taking the time to explain it to a non techy mom. Im sorry that I didnt get your name but you were excellent, thanks.

Review №24

I got berated because I used microcenters return policy. Ive bought many things from Microcenter, even when they were at the older location closer to the galleria. Ive built two of my previous PCs with parts purchased from Microcenter. They always had great motherboard + intel chip combos in the past. Ive purchased multiple computer parts, graphics cards, SSDs, computer cases, monitors, peripherals, everything you need for a build.Recently, I purchased an ipad air at this location. I didnt even open the box. It was sealed shut. I decided I wanted the bigger ipad pro 12.9 instead. They had an open box unit, so I returned the SEALED ipad air for the ipad pro 12.9 that was an open box unit. I tried to use it for my job for two days and it just didnt workout. I tried to replace a lapotp with a ipad and it just wasnt cutting it. It was an open box item so I figured Ill just return it and get a macbook air instead. Upon purchasing the macbook (after returning the ipad) I was berated by the cashier, telling me to DO YOUR RESEARCH because I had a 100% Return Rate which was NOT true. As mentioned before, Ive built many PCs with parts purchased from microcenter. This comment was very unnecessary and just put me off from purchasing the macbook at all. I will not be purchasing any more items from microcenter because of this.Cashier should have just let me check out and that be the end of it instead of telling me to DO MY RESEARCH in a rude and condescending tone.

I love shopping at Micro Center, I feel like a kid in a candy store.I always go in there for one item and end up leaving with a few, the staff is friendly and knowledgeable and they seem to be everywhere.I often shop for certified refurbished equipment and then add the extended warranty which is very reasonable.

This place is wonderful. Pretty much everything you need pc wise is here.I forgot the full name of the employee that was assisting me. I believe his name was Josh. He was extremely helpful.I was there roughly an hour. I told him what I was looking to get and he explained in great detail what products I just purchase to help.There was one specific product we couldn’t find at first. We looked across the entire store just to help me find it. It took a while but he found it. That type of customer service doesn’t come often from places.From TV’s to custom PCs all the way to streaming/broadcasting, This store has it.They offer Apple repair on products along with PC repair. I believe they also have data recovery available.This place has been around for years. I can’t believe I haven’t visited them sooner.I definitely recommend it. The pictures I posted don’t justice. There is a lot more I should have captured.

Who needs a big box store when you can get real personalized care help and assistance. From the knowledge first guys at microcenter. Shop local with very competitive low prices and amazing service. And the industries best return policy. Its a wounder that theyve stood the test of time and have grown to a statewide chain. One that consistently puts there national competition in check. They have been every Houston geeks best kept secret. And my first stop for all things tech for over 20 years. With Better buys and a Crew of Geeks that raise the Bar on Knowledge setting a new Standard for service. That the big box stores just cant replicate. They are local leaders in IT and trail blazers at the forefront of tomorrow tech trends. A one stop tech shop with fall the things you know you need and all the things you forgot.

Review №32

Low stars only because even though theres a limit of the amount of people let in the building at a time, its still very crowded. Hardly anyone wears a mask, including the managers! Cant feel safe looking for my computer needs which is unfortunate because of how convenient it is to get something the same day rather than having to wait after ordering online. Were in a pandemic and they cant even offer curbside pick-up for the safety of the community. Im sad but I wont be seeing Micro Center for a long time.

Still a great place to get what you need! Its a lot harder to find things right now - Im assuming because covid has affected staffing and stocking ad such - but before, the signs above the aisle were ALL YOU NEEDED to locate an item. Now, youre lucky if the items in the aisles are even sort of aligned with the signage.Hopefully theyll be able to get back to their normal, wonderful arrangement like the before-times, but still the perfect resource for tech.

This store has only gotten better. I first visited years ago and somehow the staff had gotten even more friendly. I had three... THREE employees ask me if I needed anything before I even got to the section I was shopping in. Thats insane to me. Even a manager checked in on me while I was waiting for the associate to grab my PC from the back. Prices were comparable or better than other outlets. Most hardware had hands on displays. Organization was on point. And checking out felt personalized by Johns friendliness. It was memorable enough that I remember 3 of the guys names. Cant say that about any other store Ive ever been to. I got what I wanted, how I wanted, and when I wanted. This would be the rarest of occasions where a 6 star rating is appropriate. Oh yea, all of that during peak hours with a bunch of people in store. Made me want to work there tbh.

Micro center always has great customer service. But the main reason I drive an hour and pass all the other computer store locations is to do business with a person I have trusted with all my family electronic needs for the last 15 years is Mike Joiner. He is one the best people i have ever met and is ALWAYS happy and is willing to go the extra mile to insure you get what you need. I could go on and on about Mike Joiner, but will just say this, for me Mike is what makes Micro center the store it is today. Keep up the great service Mike!Steve

Perfect for hard-to-find audio/visual cables/adapters and miscellaneous computer hardware that you will never find at Best Buy or any other brick-and-mortar store in Houston (especially since Frys Electronics closed in early 2021).Over the years I have purchased several of their store brand mini SD, micro SD and USB flash drives cards and found them to be of high quality at an excellent price.The staff are generally friendly and helpful but the store can get quite busy (checkout line moves quickly) so if youre looking to avoid crowds go early.

Review №61

Where Jacob J was kind and seemed to be helpful in the moment, he lied. Instead of saying that he was uncertain if what I was looking for was in stock, he confirmed that what I was looking for was definitely in stock ( I took screenshots). He told me there was only 1 left. After confirming with Jacob that the very specific item was in stock at the Houston location, I drove 45 minutes to the store. Once I got there I was approached by floor staff. I told the guy what I was looking for. He proceeded to bring me 2 print outs claiming they were both Gen 2 items (of the specific soundbar I was inquiring about). This didnt sound right but I let him proceed. He brought out the item and I asked why 1 print out said Gen 2 (the one that wasnt in stock) but the other printout didnt. He tried to tell me thats just how the system was printing out that inventorys information He tried to reassure me, though the one he brought out was a Gen 2. So, I asked why the gap in price difference (-$50). He stated its just 1 was wireless and the other wasnt. He also tried to tell me the Gen 2 that wasnt in stock, although wireless, would not work with Alexa...but that the other Gen 2 would even though it had multiple connections). This really didnt make sense. How could the more expensive one not be as advanced as the less expensive one. He continued to try to convince me that the print out for the soundbar he brought out was definitely GEN 2. I called his bluff. I stood in the store and called Sonos directly. Although the Sonos customer service rep couldnt help me identify by anything on the printout, he told me the simplest way to identify was Gen 1 Sonos Beam Soundbars are in a black and gray box and Gen 2 are in an off-white box. After hearing that, I left everything where it was and walked out. I went less than a mile down the road to Best Buy. As SOON as I walked in, an employee walked me to what I told him I was asking for. Sure enough, the Best Buy employee the ones in the black and gray boxes were Gen 1s and the ones in the white boxes were Gen 2. Guess what, it even says Gen 2 on the front of the box. Micro center is just a large warehouse style retailer with liars pushing product trying to make a buck...smh. Next time, Micro Center, please be honest. If you dont have something say it. If you dont know if it is there, say that too. Dont waste peoples time.

I understand policies but maybe you should offer better products and stand behind the products that you are selling to your customers.

Do you know what a big box store should have plenty of? Fan screws and steel wire for CPU heat sinks. Do you know what they didnt have? Band screws and steel wire for CPU heat sinks. Why bother traveling 14 miles to a brick-and-mortar store just to to get there and they dont have what you need when you could get it on Amazon. This is why your prices are too high and why people arent walking through your doors anymore

Review №73

Now that I have been to micro center a few times I wanted to update my experience. So we went got everything we needed to build a new computer, except the brand new motherboard we purchased was not new. It was repackage after someone spilled something all over both sides and tried to clean it off, it probably doesnt even work. So my entire computer build for my classes has been stonewalled. Hopefully I can get back to return it, since now I need a replacement and need to get another ride back. It was a real treat pulling it out of the bag and seeing it had stuff all over it and in the pins for the power plug . I shouldnt have to open a motherboard box in a computer store to check if it is used or not. Totally unacceptable. Dont bother calling the store either you get a really long recorded message right before the automated system just hangs up on you theres not even a way to speak to a person.

Been to this store twice...will never go back again. First time I reserved a display online and came in to buy it. After wondering around for 15 minutes just trying to find an associate, I finally figured out where to pick up reservations...waited in line for over an hour for them to serve the 5 people in front of me...why did this take so long? They couldnt find anything, took them 15 minutes to find anything anyone had ordered...Today I go in to get a GPU, online says you cant reserve and you have to go in to buy...no problem. They update the website at 7 this morning showing they have inventory. I get there 15 minutes after they open and they are sold out...but people are still lined up to get cards so what gives? Oh, well you have to come in the day before to get a voucher...since they dont update their online inventory to notify you, then you just have to come in every day and ask if you can get a voucher.Today Micro Center has lost my business and any possibility of a recommendation. Im sad to see that this is still around when Frys isnt, they always had great customer service and I never had to stand in a line for no reason. I expect this will be the last year for Micro Center, and I say good riddance.To Micro Center, I say stop lying to your customers, stop wasting their time, get organized, and on top of that, dont price gouge your customers. I truly cannot think of a single thing you do right...

When Im close enough I most always buy my PC parts at micro center. The manager of the Houston micro center, Steve (5/1/21), is probably the reason I will keep doing so. He was able to take what was a frustrating set of events and turn them into a win for me at little to no cost to the store I hope. Big box stores are what they are but good people like Steve can make it feel more caring.

First allow me to say that this store is amazing! The help I received from Ryan and Bryan were above top notch service. I live about 3 hours away from their Houston store. I had been searching for a high end gaming rig for a long time. And they worked with me from out of town and made the whole process very easy. I drove to Houston and they built my Gaming rig to spec. Went over Everything with me. If you have the pleasure of visiting their store or any Microcenter store I highly recommend it! It’s like Lego Land but for everything and anything PC related.

Overall great service. Went on a Sunday to buy parts for a pc build and had to wait about 30 minutes in line which was actually pretty fast since there was about 70 people in line. Had to wait a bit to get any help from the staff but that was expected since this was during peak hours. Staff were very friendly and helpful. I actually had to return the parts I bought due to an error on my end. Return was accepted no questions asked.

Its microcenter! Checkout experience is quite the affair, seems like the registers are stuck in the 80s and take forever. Tons of people around to help out, lots of stock including microcontrollers. Love this place.
