Management was absolutely lovely. The workers are friendly and informative. They assist one another. My experience here far outward anything best buy has done. My wait time in line was minimal. Even the person who helped me wanted to make sure a customer he started with was all set before he left. Awesome attention to people. This is the kind of store you should walk into when your having a bad day. I guarentee you will feel a millions times better even if you do not buy anything.

Beware, Micro Center no longer honors their extended warranty program. I bought an RX 580 and started seeing grren snow artifacts. I installed VR and the card got unstable. It finally crashed. Micro Center refuses to replace the card. Not only that, thy told the guy who they were helping in line while he waited that they could return a part on the warranty without testing. I asked why, and they said it was because he has a service relationship with Micro Center and if I brought my PC in and paid to have it evaluated, I may be able to honor the warranty. I love how every business in 2020, even Micro Center, now acts like Tony Soprano. Use your credit card to buy things - Citizen's Bank says you can charge it back if they refuse to honor the warranty.

Update - after two trips and two days with dimished work capacity, I got them to honor the warranty. FYI Y and D, my mobo is good and the new card solved all my problems.

All the guys here know there stuff. I'm not a tech kinda guy. I've alway explained this to whom ever is helping me. I tell them what I'm looking for and they take the time to get me out the door with what I need

I purchased everything needed to build my first gaming PC here. Unfortunately the graphics card they sold me was kaput..I had to return it but apparently it was past the return/exchange period. Luckily for me Yonas the Service manager and his associate came in to save the day. They were able to put some effort into finding the solution that worked for me. Even in these trying times it s great when someone goes above their requirements to fulfill a customers day. Thanks I will be a returning customer for life.

This place has just about anything you might need for a personal or small business setup.

They cover a wide variety of laptops, tons of desktop and you build it components, with probably 30 to 40 motherboards and maybe 50 video card models in stock at any time.

There are also regular opportunities to pick up off lease, end of run, or demo hardware at 40/50% off current prices for the same model.

There is an entire 30 foot aside devoted to routers, hubs and switches, and they probably carry 500 different internal pc/mac cables.

Add to that almost any accessory you could hope for and you have Boston Geek Heaven. The only problems I've had with service were ALWAYS FIXED before I left the store, and to my satisfaction if not better.

There are only two down sides to the place: A visit has almost never been less than 30 to 45 minutes... there is lots to see and no good maps ;-). And that causes the second issue for some with significant others who don't like this stuff. .. If you're lucky they can do a Trader Joe's run across the parking. Otherwise if they don't do Starbucks, it could cost you a spa treatment if you want peace!!

If you are shopping for a pc, mac, or accessories, this IS the place to go.

Microcenter is the LAST "Big Box" MEGA Computer retailer that I'm aware of. Let's see, We used to have Computerland, EggHead, CompUSA, and others. Worth a visit at least once a year. MicroCenter carries prettymuch everything and puts oput a multi-page flyer of stuff on sale. If you want to build a computer from scratch, they have all the pieces and parts. You want COTS (Common Off The Shelf) stuff, Macs, PC's they got it. This particular store is at street level therefore wheelchair accessible, entrance is off the parking lot.

The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. No one is pushing customers to buy. Customer Support is just head-and-shoulders above any other electronics-store in the area, including big-box stores. Micro-Centers price for the same item is usually well below competition, often below or at-par with online stores. Never had a reason to complain as a customer for several years now.

Tons of DIY parts but they are poorly organized. Staff are hit-or-miss -- some are great and others, not so much. But there is no other place like Micro Center when you need a specific Arduino model on super-short notice.

The service center was so helpful! They gave us a better price than the people at Apple and were much nicer! We went to Apple and had a horrible experience, so tried our luck here. Ended up saving several hundred dollars and gave our business to nice people.

I love this place. It's just too bad that I'm not the only one that feels that way. The checkout process is a bit slow. Otherwise 5 stars would have been used. The staff is very knowledgeable and that is the most important thing. Next time you want anything computer related head to Micro Center first.

Best computer store in the region. Not only do they have all the off the shelf stuff you'll ever need, at good prices, but they have a huge, and growing DIY section! Great for browsing as well as buying.

It's like I've been transported to 1992 when computer stores were a thing. Well, this one still is, and it's well-located for sustainability. I love the idea that there's a brick-and-mortar store that can sell me most of the computer parts I could find on Amazon. The prices for some accessories are absurd, but for the most part you'll find something that works for you for an entirely reasonable sum. I do NOT like that the management has elected to configure the card readers at checkout to disallow the use of debit cards as credit cards, which still offers users more protection, but which would cost the store a few extra cents per transaction. My best understanding of the business is that this likely violates the store's contract with the card companies, but I've still had a manager look me in the face and tell me that it's impossible to run my card as credit - only to have an employee tell me "he can, but he won't" moments after he walked away.

I do NOT suggest using this place if you are looking for an Apple Authorized Service Provider! They are NOT helpful and will refuse to help fix small issues. Strongly suggest not wasting your time and going straight to an Apple Store.

The people here are incredible and know what they are talking about(Unlike Best Buy). I am personally a tech person and fit right in and found what I was looking for, but even if you aren't they will help you find what you need quickly and easily.

This place has a huge inventory and a pretty wide selection. I was able to come in and get everything I needed to start streaming video for teaching. Super interesting kids section with robots and everything priced decently. The webcam I got was only five bucks more than online, and being able to walk out with it then was worth it.

Heaven for all techies with amazingly low prices. Even has a build your own computer section. They also have cheap phones and TVs....the place is just...........heaven. Also customer service is top notch. Be sure to grab their weekly ads for deals

One of the best places to go if you're looking to build that custom dream machine workstation. Intel processor prices best all known online and retail stores I've researched, and they always have the latest tech on hand. I built this powerhouse (see images) from Microcenter in-stock items, which 95% matched my pre-visit build list. I've built many custom systems for both personal and business production needs over the last ten years, and all have been sourced from Microcenter. It's the only place I go for all of my prosumer desktop and heavy weight custom workstation needs.

The staff here are extremely knowledgeable about their products and the nature of computers in general. They are not afraid to say what they think is best for you if you tell them what you need, and it will be said in a respectful way. Also, a wide selection for all price ranges. I'd wager that this is at the Pinnacle of computer shops, for parts, accessories and whole machines.

If you are at all interested in home or business technology, personal computer assembly, IoT, networking, gaming... You get the idea. Micro Center is your one-stop shop for any little component or technological "thingy" that you didn't bother to go find online, along with reasonably priced computer sales. Some things here may be a little more expensive than just searching for it on Amazon, but it's worth it if you need to get your hands on it now, as opposed to next week. It's basically just Toys R Us for the adult computer crowd.
