Appliances: Shopping secrets

When it's time for new appliances, choosing suitable refrigerators, dryers, and washing machines can be extremely important. But, even more important is selecting pieces that specifically meet your needs.

If you’ve never shopped for appliances before, a few shopping secrets could change the outcome in your favor. Here are a few to help you on your way to the perfect new pieces for every room.

Avoid buying on impulse

If shopping for new pieces makes you nervous or uncomfortable, it could push you towards impulse buying. It's crucial to guard against this to reduce the chance of future disappointment.

Instead, go over all the features of air conditioners and other appliances that best fit your needs, including options for reduced noise, lifetime warranties, and energy efficiency. Make a list of what's important to you, and don't budge from that spot.

Measure each spot carefully

Whether installing a large or a tiny piece, measurements could make or break the purchase. Some appliances offer standard sizes, so it's a little easier to choose the right one, but not all do.

Measure your space for height, width, and depth, and ensure the new product fits within those boundaries for the best results. It’s best to choose washers and dryers to help you avoid a return.

Take time to ask questions you have about your potential new appliances. Fully understanding your purchase is always a great idea, even with a single product.
