Bart's experience as a general contractor installing appliances gives our sales staff an added level of expertise when dealing with built-in appliances, Andrew Guattery, general manager at Michael's Appliance Center, said in a press release announcing the hirings. With his first-hand knowledge of how these appliances get installed, we can help customers avoid issues a typical salesman may not be aware of."

Seitz, of Middletown, has been named parts and service associate. She has a 37-year background in the appliance parts and service business, including experience as a branch manager at the Sears Parts store in Middletown and Metro Factory Service in Dover, N.J.

"Her experience will allow us to combine parts and service into a single, one-stop department for anything repair related," Guattery said.
