Stuck on Repeat was met with positive reviews from music critics. Tim Sendra of AllMusic gave a positive review for the album praising the catchy choruses of the songs and its use of simple chord progressions, as well as the lyrics. He stated that Bard's vocals, "have a sound that makes The Archies sound like Slayer." He also added, "The eight songs are all memorable, fun, and friendly, played with plenty of upbeat energy and a carefree zest."
Scott Heisel of Alternative Press also gave a positive review stating, "Stereo Skyline deliver slab after slab of nu power-pop, with each sub-three-minute song loaded with Auto-Tuned vocals, cheesy woosh sound effects, the most basic of lyrics and an all-around level of saccharine that makes The Maine sound like Slayer. And yet, this thing doesn't suck." He described the track, "A Little More Us" as a "young Ace Enders fronting the Jonas Brothers." He also compared "Me & You" to Owl City's "Dental Care" for its "unabashedly cheddar moments." He praised the tracks "Tongue Tied" and "Heartbeat" for its instantly likable hooks.
