Hey Boulder folks! My washer suddenly stopped mid-cycle and now won't drain — water everywhere! Just moved here from out of state so don't know any local repair services. Heard High City Appliance works in Boulder but not sure if they're actually good. Need someone reliable who can come quickly and doesn't rip people off. Any recommendations? Thanks!

Oh no, mid-cycle flood is every mover’s nightmare. I relocated to Boulder last year and my washer died week two. First guy quoted $200+ just to “look.” Second tech https://highcityappliance.com/boulder  came same-day, diagnosed a clogged drain pump, fixed it for under $150 total. They’re legit hundreds of 5-star reviews, transparent pricing ($69 diagnostics), and actually show up on time. One reviewer said they fixed a Bosch dishwasher efficiently and even returned free for a minor tweak. Before they arrive, try: unplug, check the drain hose for kinks, and clear the pump filter (front panel usually pops off). If it’s coins or lint, you might save a call. But if it’s the pump motor, better to call pros. Good luck, and welcome to Boulder!

That sounds like such a rough way to start settling into a new place. We had a washer stop draining not long after moving, and I was convinced it would be an expensive repair. It ended up being a blocked drain pump, and the technician from High City Appliance explained everything before fixing it, so there were no surprises. I'd still check the filter and hose first since they're easy to inspect, but if that doesn't help, having someone diagnose it properly can save a lot of guesswork.
