Check out these sources for unbiased appliance reviews.
If you’re like most people, you probably spend a good chunk of time researching appliance reviews before purchasing one. Buying a brand new appliance, or a whole new set, is exciting. However, with all the different options and extra features available out there, it’s important to look for something that ticks off every box on your wish list. It’s also important to ensure the appliance is high quality and trustworthy. After all, it’ll be with you for quite a few years.
Here is a list of a few places where you can find some of the most reliable reviews online:
1. Facebook Appliance Reviews
This option may seem a little out there, but it’s definitely one of the better places to look when searching for appliance reviews. You can search the manufacturer’s page, an appliance stores’ page, or just type in the make or model in the search bar and see what comes up.
A lot of times, someone will post something specific to the model, and you don’t need to be their friend on Facebook to see what they’ve posted. On an appliance store or manufacturer page, people leave reviews all the time. You can even see the responses from the company directly. How a company handles their reviews can also give you a little insight into the product itself.
2. Amazon, eBay, Appliance Store & Manufacturer Webpages
If you’ve got a particular brand or model in mind, just Google it. You’ll most likely be directed to a website that sells them. If that’s the case, you’ll be able to see any reviews previous customers have left. They’re usually indicated with a star rating and a comment. These places are the best places to look for reviews. They’re unbiased, typically honest, and usually do a great job of outlining previous purchasers’ experiences.
3. Word of Mouth
Another great way to get an honest review of any kind of kitchen appliance is to ask a friend or family member who’s got the same one you’re interested in. Maybe they’ve just installed that wine fridge you’ve been eyeing up, or they’ve been using the cooking appliance you’ve been researching for a few months now. Either way, they can give you the lowdown on how the appliance has worked for them and whether or not they’d recommend it.
4. An Appliance Expert
When all else fails, head to your favourite appliance store in Vernon. The staff will be able to answer any questions you may have, walk you through all the features and doo-dads, and let you know what other customers have said about the appliance in question.
