Sudden closure of luxury appliance store Pirch leaves SoCal customers frustrated, confused

LOS ANGELES - Many Southern California customers are frustrated and confused to learn that they might not be receiving their expensive appliance orders, purchased through the luxury appliance store Pirch, when all locations suddenly closed this week.

"Are we getting our merchandise? Are we getting a refund?" asked one customer, Maribell Rodriguez.

Rodriguez told FOX 11 that she has yet to receive any answers from Pirch regarding her order since the company's abrupt closure Wednesday. She is in the middle of a home renovation and just took out a $20,000 loan to pay for the appliances.

"I really feel that the people up in the higher ups, CFO, directors, or whomever, they definitely knew what was coming," said Rodriguez. "Why they allowed their doors to be open for such a long time, knowing that they might have been in this circumstance is beyond me."

I bough our stacked washer dryer used, it’s pushing 20 years old. The washer motor died once and the timer board went bad. I can still get parts and will continue to fix it myself until it’s unfixable. I brought home a range from a job years ago that was already 25 years old. It lasted many years.

It was all electric so when it finally gave up I bought a new gas range. low end no real bells and whistles, it just works. The fridge and dishwasher we bought new from a friend in the a appliance biz. Higher end side by side fridge with one tiny dent on the door and a Kitchen aide dishwasher that had been installed and removed before use. The fridge is about 15 years old and i put a relay on the board when it stopped running, still work great. The dish washer made it 6 years and the motor went. I fixed it and 2 years later the control board went. We bought a brand new middle of the road Maytag to replace it mostly because Maytag makes the internals for most major brands. The thing sucks, it take 3 hours to do a load because of Obama and after 3 year it quit.

I just said the hell with it and we do dishes by hand now. New appliance and new cars are junk, I avoid them.

When we got married we were pretty broke. I bought a dryer at a garage sale. It needed a new take up reel ($2.00 part). They threw in the washer because it leaked. That was a $19.00 part.

They lasted ten years.
