When I walked in to the shop and needed a motherboard, The head tech got me a new, compatible, and correct size Motherboard for my need at a great price! I found my new pc shop to go to for ALL of my computer needs! The service was #1 as well. I got more bang for my buck with Power Up computers than any other shop I ever went to in my 17 years or this hobby These guys got my permanent business and a new repeat customer for life. Thanks Team

I took my very sluggish speed laptop into Leo's shop at 1:00 in the afternoon. At 3:30 he called me and said it was completed. My laptop is now a speedster. It was done at a very reasonable price. I definitely recommend Power Up Computers in O'Fallon.

Leo is super helpful. I've been a customer for years and he just helped me when a I had a problem with my printer and couldn't get it to work. Support your local business, specially when they offer great service

Children and even adults destroy, wound and kill computers while 5 times Power Up computers have brought them back to life. They have always been successful and given a price for repair that they stood by before work was done.

have been doing business with leo for over a year and has given great, fast service. I operate 15 restraunts, so my needs come at some weird times of the day and leo has always been there to help. Also, I have bought 5 laptops for personal use, and the product he sells is outstanding.. Its a pleasure doing business with Powerup!!!

This business rocks! If you are looking for someone to help you with your computer issues dont hesitate to go here. They are honest, listen to you and DO NOT try to oversell you a bunch of stuff that you dont need. This place is a gold mine!

I enjoyed coming here very much, Leo specifically was very helpful and kind and very flexible with helping me with my computer problems. The prices were also really great! I will for sure be coming back!

My computer was a MESS! We only use it for business and we need it to work and be safe for all our work files. I brought it in at 1pm in the afternoon and told them what I needed. They went over everything with me and I was on my way. The same day at 6pm they called and said my computer was ready to go. I come in the next day and he showed me how to work everything. He made a file where I just go in and update everything in the file and move on! He also switched my computer from Windows 8 to 7 and gave me business related programs. I am sitting here on my computer and its way faster than its ever been and I am so happy with their work. We will be using them for any and all computer needs. We will be back!

There's nobody better than Power Up Computers when it comes to solve computer problems. Leo and his team and the best! Not only they fixed my computer in 24hrs but also their price was the best I was quoted. My computer is cleaned from viruses and working better than ever!

I have used Power Up Computers 3 times over the last several years for different issues. Leo is friendly, professional and very knowledgeable. I am confident that if the problem can be solved he will be able to accomplish the repair. I highly recommend Leo for anyone needing computer repairs.

Only if you want to have it done right the first time would you want go here. I found this shop hidden away on Elm street in old town O Fallon and for me its been the best discovery in decades. With over 40 years of owning computers I feel at last I found a company that makes a repair and does it right the First Time. I ve used this company five or six times on the same number of different machines over the years and I keep going back because I can depend on professionalism that was not delivered by Best Buy s Geek Squad and other small shops in the St Charles area. You only want to go here is you want it done right and feel you got the best of the deal .

Great Computers for GREAT PRICES!!! Found a iMac on Marketplace that Leo had put on there. He said the computer on the page was since sold. He made me a better deal on a bigger computer and I couldn't pass it up! Go check it out for yourself.

If zero was a choice, that's what I'd rate this place.

I was a first time customer. I called and explained that my sound had gone out on my computer. I had spent four days with online Microsoft support trying to figure out what was wrong. They couldn't figure it out. I called this shop and spoke with Leo who said he was the owner. He assured me that they could fix it.

I brought it in and was told I'd be called the next day. No one called so I actually called twice and no one was at the shop all day. On the fourth day I called and asked if they found out what was wrong with my computer. This is the response I received, "Um.....yeah....um....it's your sound thing." I obviously wasn't feeling very confident with that response. I asked what he meant by that and was told "Your sound's not working." My confidence was not restored.

I asked if they had fixed my 'sound thing' and was told they hadn't. So I asked to speak to Leo. That conversion did not go well either.

May I speak to Leo?

"Um....he's not here."

Can you call him and ask him to give me a call?

"Yeah but he won't call you until he comes back."

And when will he be back?

"I dunno."

I told the employee I'd be in to pick up my computer. He replied that anybody was going to tell me the same thing and so it didn't matter where I brought my computer. That was pretty much it for me. Explaining to him that not only had he not told me what was wrong with my computer,. it mattered to me with regard to how I'm treated.

Twenty minutes later he called to say Leo would be in an hour. I gave him over two hours and no one called. I just picked up my computer and Leo was there but didn't even acknowledge me.

I remember when I called him four days ago and he said his business relied upon word of mouth. I certainly hope that's true Leo, I TRULY do.

I was told about Power Up Computers from a relative and I'm so happy I took my computer there to have it fixed. I was scammed by one of those companies that tell you that you've been "hacked" and try to sell you a $400 annual service. Power Up Computers fixed my computer for a flat $85 (they cleaned viruses, optimized and installed an antivirus). Now my computer is running much, much faster and I know what to do to not fall for any more scams.

This place was actually really nice! The guy had great service, helped me find exactly what I was looking for! And on top of that you could tell he knowledge and knows what s going on! To me the best part he sent me a massage on face book to make sure my computer and everything was working just fine! That s a true good business man and I respect that 10/10 recommend this place to anybody

I had a very good experience at this place. They fixed my laptop fast and for a lot less than what I was quoted at two other local places (I know better than getting ripped off at Geek Squad). I'll make sure to recommend you to all my friends and family.

Power up Computers is my go to place for all my computer needs. I highly recommend them if you have a computer problem or you want a rebuilt computer that runs like a new one. I tell family and friends and now they also go to power up and they thank me for recommending them. Very knowledgeable, friendly and reasonably priced. Give them a try. You'll be glad you did

Leo was very kind and easy to work with. He is amazing with computers very humble and you can take his word ! I highly recommend his services! He wasn t afraid to tell me the bad and the good. Very truthful! Amazing !

I needed a good and reliable laptop and I found this on Facebook, happy and grateful for finding him, he sold me a good laptop but also he answered right away my questions because I was not familiar with, will keep him on my contacts and definitely I highly recommend this professional and honest guy!

I found a laptop I was looking for through Leo. I m very computer illiterate but trying to relearn for a craft I m trying to start. The computer I got wouldn t work with the software I needed it to so I contacted him again and right away he said he would exchange it for the other one I was looking at. Totally my fault but Leo was friendly understanding and patient and helped me get what I needed to get started. Will definitely be doing more business in the future!

I've been doing business with Leo for many years. He's the absolute best when it comes to computers. He's fast, knowledgeable and his prices are very fair. I always recommend his to anyone who needs help with computers.

It's clear the owner lives for, and loves his work.

Dropped off my sluggish Dell Inspiron 5875, thinking it needed a new Power Supply Unit.

He found it it was just loaded with e-junk, after three years of ownership.

Leo had the deskstop back to me in less than four hours, and now this thing is screaming!

The place is pretty cluttered in an "Einstein" sort of way. That's cause he's a genius!

Love this guy, and he loves (and stands behind) his work!

one of the worst computer repair shops ive ever seen. never seen a shop that holds onto a computer for 3 months for a 1 day fix. (apple can replace a broken screen in the same day.. this man took 3 months and still couldnt fix it, rather he broke more parts)

Having loaned out my laptop to a family member it was returned to me with viruses and a slew of other issues. They set up my computer with a reminder folder of how often to update the virus software and protections. They also installed software that i had bought. My computer hasn't worked this good since it was brand new. Having come from New york their prices we very reasonable even for Missouri. I also had them set up my printer connections to my new printer. I would most definitely recommend Power Up Computers!!!!!

Leo is amazing at what he does. Very kind and helpful, and I'm glad that the service is very quick! Even when I got the wrong keys for my laptop, Leo ordered the proper keys and added them to my computer again free of charge. Very awesome! Everyone should check out Power Up Computers as their first resort if they have any computer issues.

A few months ago, I purchased a new HP Envy computer with the Windows 8 operating system. For the first month, I had nothing but problems, - crashes, lock-ups, slow operation, etc. MS and HP help lines were of no use at all. When the computer finally became totally non-functional, I took it to Power Up Computers and in a few days, for a cost less than I could believe, I had a fast, reliable, fully operational computer with the Windows 7 system. New antivirus software had been installed as well as disk defragmentation software and disk check software that runs on a weekly schedule. I've had absolutely no problems since I got the computer back home.
The guys at Power Up are very attentive to their customers' needs and they are very competent in making sure the customer needs are fulfilled. In addition they were fun to work with.

I found pc ram for sale on Facebook and spoke to Leo and asked if it would work in my pc. He advised it would work and I was able to meet him that day to pick it up. The parts were as pictured and work as described. Very satisfied and I m sure I ll be returning in the future.

Employees were very friendly and easy to talk to on the phone and in person. Not only did they find out what was wrong with my laptop in a short amount of time (I thought it was something else), they gave me advice so I wouldn't run into the same problem in the future. They were able to repair my computer under a time-constraint, which I was very pleased with. Prices are very fair compared to other local computer stores. I am highly satisfied with my experience with Power Up Computers, and will definitely be a returning customer next time something goes wrong with my computer!

paid this shop $500 to fix my laptop, a screen that was hit by an xbox controller. somehow while he had the laptop he broke internal parts, like the hard drive.... this shop is absolutely terrible. took my broken computer to a real shop, and they told me he was wiring everything like he had no idea what he was doing. if you have a POS computer, you can take it to him, but if you value your computer at all, and want it back, this is not the place foryou.

Been a customer for years. Purchased 2 CPUs and one laptop. Whenever I have a problem they offer fast and friendly service. Just recently I couldn't connect to Wi-fi. I called and spoke with Leo and problem was resolved in less than 5 minutes. Saved me a 45 minute trip and the inconvenience of not being able to fully use my laptop! Thanks!

Very quick to respond to any questions. Also was completely honest about the condition of the item. Within 15 min of my purchase I already had a tracking number as well. Highly recommend!

Went to purchase some laptop RAM. Good prices on older DDR3. Seemed very knowledgeable and does reclaim/recycling here. I asked what he accepts for recycling he responds, "If it has a cord, I'll take that too."
I tinker alot at home so ALWAYS have spare parts- great place to drop off anything obsolete for proper disposal. Will definitely be back to bug with questions and parts!

Don't go to this messy, unprofessional place. It took 3 weeks for them to fix one laptop because they refused to call me back when they said they would. Never giving this place my business again.

Was in the market for a PC to use for personal and business, found a mac one from Leo. He was responsive quick and game me options on the ones he had,when one was sold he let me know and I came picked up a different one then I originally wanted. He also installed other apps right on the spot. When I noticed a piece missing I let him know and he automatically had it sent to me.

Would recommend to friends and business owners. Reasonable prices.

Went to this shop after having bad luck from another business and he was fantastic. Great service! Fixed my computer in such short notice and just in time for finals week and at very reasonable price. Will keep coming back if needed in the future

These guys are awesome! My Dell decided to upgrade to Windows 10 and I lost all my files. Within three days they were able to restore Windows 8 and recovered nearly all my files! They let me know what was going on and even let me get a copy of the files for an interview before the computer was fixed.

I highly recommend, don't let the disheveled appearance of the place fool you...if you have computer problems, go there.

AMAZING!!!! My Macbook Pro laptop broke and there was only one place on hwy K that fixes Mac computers but they wanted $300 to repair it. A friend told me about these guys and that I should give them a call. I'm soooo glad I did. They fixed my laptop and it cost me less than half of what the other place quoted me. I highly recommend them to everybody that needs their computer fixed.

I took my computer there, when it wouldn't power up one day. They had it up and running the next day. Only needed a new power supply. They even cleaned out the dust in the inside. I will be back, anytime I have computer problems.

Had a problem with my computer powering up; took it in, was seen immediately. Minor malfunction was found and corrected at no charge. Would not take any of my computers any other place than here. Always prompt service, and so reasonably priced compared to places I've tried previously. Highly recommended!

Amazing!! Honest, prompt and efficient service. No pressure to up sell --- I was offered options and his true opinion on best course of action.. .
I thought I needed an upgraded laptop but he said I'd be fine with a tune up. My laptop works GREAT - better than it ever has!! I will return to Power Up Computers for anything I need in the future. Very honest.....Amazing knowledge!!!

I've been at Power Up Computer twice (to repair my laptop and my desktop) and both times I was treated with courtesy and respect. The service is great and their work is done fast and for a very reasonable price. Recommended to everybody!

I ordered a Chromebook/table from Power Up via Facebook Marketplace. It came promptly and communication about shipping was excellent. I had some questions about getting it up and running and the service was above and beyond.

For whatever reason the device did not work for my online work and class needs. I reached out to the seller and even though the post had said no returns, I was able to return it and for a full refund that included shipping. That is service.

I had an oil change at a garage leave the cap off my car after a change and it blew the head. They gave me a very nice loaner and rebuilt my engine. It was an older car that I got years more use out of. Guess where I go every time for an oil change today? Products will not work out sometimes or in the case of the oil change people will make mistakes, how they handle those situations define their business for me. I am a satisfied customer.

Was in the market for a laptop. Expressed my needs to Leo and he hooked me up with a nice tablet and keyboard. Works great. Thrilled! No doubt I can stop in if I have any issues. Great pricing!

Was geeting tablet for my buisness. He met with me and answered all my questions i had. I highly recommend him for repair or in the market for tablet or computer. Very satisfied in tablet from him. Will continue to buy and go here.
