Best Refrigerator Ratings

February 28th, 2009

When looking to save money on appliances, such as a refrigerator, you should also try to find the one with the best rating.

Buying a new refrigerator can be a daunting experience. Reading through all the refrigerator reviews, refrigerator ratings and consumer recommendations can be mind boggling. After all, there are so many different models to choose from in addition to all the different brands, styles, even colors. So where do you start?

ratings of refrigerators

Well, the easiest place to begin is by asking yourself the following questions:

  • 1) How Much Space Do You Need?: The space inside a refrigerator is expressed in Cubic Feet. Considering most people don’t understand what a cubic foot represents, think of it this way. You need about Ten Cubic Feet of interior storage capacity per 2 people.

    This 10 cubic feet is for freezer space as well as refrigerator space. So, figure about 7 cubic feet of refrigerator space and 3 cubic feet of freezer space per 2 people.

    Granted, even though that’s the rule of thumb, you have to consider your specific space needs such as:

    • How big is your family? – If you have a family of four, figure you’ll need at least a 20.0 cubic foot fridge.
    • Are you a Vegetarian? – If you are a vegetarian, you won’t need as much freezer space or internal meat drawers. You’ll want as much refrigerator space as you can handle to be sure you have the space for your fresh fruits and vegetables.
    • How will your family grow, or shrink? – Are your kids in college and about to flee the nest? Do you have a baby on the way or elderly parents moving in? All of these factors are things to consider when making a refrigerator purchase. Consider that most refrigerators last about 10 years, so factor in how your family will be growing or shrinking over that time period so that you don’t have to keep buying new refrigerators.
  • 2) What Kind of Refrigerator Will Fit into Your Kitchen?: It sounds silly, but there have been a number of people that have purchased a new refrigerator only to get it home and find out that the new fridge doesn’t fit into their existing kitchen. So, take measurements before you go refrigerator shopping.

    Factor in not only where the fridge will be sitting, but also how far out the door will swing. After all, you don’t want to get your new fridge home and then find out you can’t open it!

    Keep in mind that counter depth refrigerators are very popular, but they often lack the storage capacity that most people need. So, consider this when you’re shopping. Counter depth by the way means that the front face of the refrigerator will sit flush with the existing counter top, rather than sticking out. It looks much nicer, but it’s not always the right choice for everybody.

  • 3) Color Choices: There’s good and bad news with refrigerator colors — the good news is there aren’t too many to choose from — and you guessed it, that’s also the bad news.

    Refrigerators typically come in white, black, stainless steel, bisque (or beige) and a stainless steel alternative called, satina. Satina is usually cheaper than stainless and easier to maintain, but it doesn’t always (depending on the brand) look as nice.

    The days of avocado green and lemon yellow are gone for the moment.

    So, what do you do if you need a different color? Well, many refrigerators have attachable panels that affix to the face of the refrigerator that allows you to make it any color your desire. Most people like to blend their refrigerator into their existing cabinetry by getting panels that match the wood work. GE Monogram, Kenmore Elite and Kitchenaid offer this option and all have performed well in a number of online refrigerator reviews.

  • 4) Type of Refrigerator: The type of refrigerators available are:
    • Side by Side – Where the freezer and refrigerator are next to each other
    • Top Freezer – Where the freezer is mounted on the top of the refrigerator
    • Bottom Freezer — There the freezer is mounted on the bottom of the refrigerator
    • French Door Refrigerator — Which is also referred to as a bottom freezer because it has two split (side by side) doors on the front with a pull out drawer freezer on the bottom.
    • Built In Refrigerator — Can be any of the above styles, but the refrigerator is built into the existing cabinetry and hidden away with the stylized color panels mentioned above.
    • Compact Refrigerator — Also called a "dorm refrigerator", the compact refrigerator is perfect for game rooms, spare rooms, garages or family areas.
  • 5) Best Refrigerator Brands: We’re always reviewing different models of refrigerators by a wide variety of manufacturers. In all of the refrigerator reviews that we’ve done, only a handful of manufacturers rise to the tops as leaders — so these are the brands to consider and brands to avoid:

    General Electric: GE, GE profile and GE Monogram are all excellent choices and rate very well with consumers. The GE Aurora brand (sold exclusively at The Home Depot) was above average, but did NOT rate as well as the GE or GE Profile brands.

    Consider:

    Amana: Amana has consistently been rated by Consumer Reports as one of the best performing refrigerator brands. Our testing proves the same as well. Amana is one to consider.

    Kenmore: Sears has had its ups and downs with its many inside brands, but Kenmore consistently has led the pack with high quality, durable and affordable refrigerators. The Kenmore Elite was especially outstanding.

    Whirlpool: Whirlpool has been making high quality products for decades. They are now the parent brand of Amana, Maytag and JennAir. Whirlpool is top notch.

    LG: Although they lack a bit in customer service, the LG French Door Refrigerators are some of the most affordable and attractive units on the market.

    Brands to Avoid:

    Maytag: Maytag used to be a mark of quality, but for the past ten years or so their quality of refrigerators has been deteriorating rapidly. Hopefully the execs at Whirlpool can bring the luster back to this once great brand name.

    SubZero: Although we personally love their refrigerators, they tend to have a lot of problems over the course of their lifetime. If you have the budget, you may want to consider a Viking or a Gaggenau refrigerator instead.

    Fisher & Paykel: Seemingly always at the bottom of the Consumer Reports quality lists, Fisher & Paykel has been slightly improving year after year. But, they still have a ways to go.

We hope this helps you as you journey out into the world of refrigerator shopping. If you’re looking fo 1ff8 r more suggestions, refrigerator reviews or refrigerator ratings, be sure to pay us a visit at http://www.refrigeratorpro.com.

Refurbished Appliances

February 5th, 2009

Refurbished Appliances: A Risky Money Saver?

Refurbished appliances are those that have been returned to the manufacturer and repaired. In the case of large appliances, this may involve rebuilding or replacing the motor, replacing defective or damaged parts or otherwise making it work and look like a new appliance.

Refurbished appliances are normally returned to the manufacture while they are still under warranty. The buyer, who has purchased a new appliance, expects an appliance that works and looks perfect. If there is a problem, the dealer has several options. He may send a repairman to fix the appliance, or he may exchange the appliance for a new one.

The decision to replace or repair the appliance is based on several factors. If the repair work is relatively minor, the dealer would prefer to have their repairman complete the repair. If the problem is more extensive, the dealer will often give the customer a new appliance, and send the damaged one to the manufacture. The manufacturer’s repair center is more expansive, and they are able to do major repairs. Once they have repaired the appliance, it is resold as a refurbished appliance.

Are They Worth the Savings?

Purchasing a refurbished appliance can offer you a substantial savings. Theoretically, the appliance should work as well as a new one. Whether you should invest your money in a refurbished appliance is determined by a number of factors. Before committing to a refurbished appliance, ask the salesman what warranty the appliance comes with. If there is no warranty, or just a short, 30 day warranty, that may be a warning sign that you are not getting a good deal on this appliance.

Another consideration when deciding whether a refurbished appliance makes sense in your situation is the amount that you will save. Often, the sales pitch for refurbished appliances are that they are as good as new. While they have been factory repaired and inspected, and should last as long as any other appliance, they are not new. Whatever level of use the appliance received before it had to be repaired is still with the appliance. If you are considering buying a refurbished appliance, expect a substantial savings over the cost of a new appliance.

If the appliance comes with a full warranty, that includes the parts that were originally repaired, and the savings are significant, a refurbished appliance may be a good deal. Keep in mind that a refurbished appliance has been in someone else’s home and has been used, so in addition to checking the price and the warranty look the item over carefully for cosmetic damage or missing pieces, such as shelves.

Another Choice, Scratch and Dent

If you are trying to save money when shopping for appliances, but purchasing a refurbished appliance seems risky, another option is shopping at a scratch and dent appliance store. These stores sell new appliances that have been damaged in the store. They have never been used. While no one wants a stove or refrigerator in their kitchen with a huge gouge down the front, you may not mind it in the laundry room. Also, many of the scratches are cosmetic, barely visible or can be touched up with a little appliance paint.

Saving Money When Shopping for Appliances

Appliances are expensive, and the two times most people shop, when they are replacing an entire kitchen or when an appliance unexpectedly quits working, are times when there may not be a lot of discretionary money available. There are, however, several ways that you can save money when shopping for appliances. If you decide that refurbished or scratch and dent appliances are not for you, contact the large appliance stores in your area. They often have brand new appliances that were never delivered for some reason, perhaps the customer changed her mind before delivery, or there was a mistake in the warehouse. These "returned" items are brand new, but will still be sold at a discount.

When new floor models arrive, the older models are sold at a steep discount. While they may have some minor dings, they will not be in too bad of condition or they would not be on the floor. Purchasing one of these floor models is a good way to save money. If you have your heart set on a brand new appliance, with no damage and not previously sold, ask the salesman when they are having their next appliance sale. The salesmen know what products are going on sale each week several weeks before the actual sale. They can let you know when to come back, or may even be able to give you the discount early.

Refrigerator Special Sizes Can Save

February 5th, 2009

Compact and Mini Refrigerator Advantages

A compact refrigerator may prove to the best investment when one wants to save space in their homes or hotels. Here’s a look at some of the advantages of the compact and mini refrigerators.

Compared to the normal refrigerators, the compact and mini refrigerators have advantages over others. The mini refrigerator can be used in many places where a regular size fridge would never ever prove to be practical. Today, these are useful in compact flats, apartments, student dorms, offices, hotels, motels etc.

Compact and Mini Refrigerator Advantages:

A compact refrigerator is especially useful for travelers, who wish to keep their food hot or cold on the go. For such people the mini refrigerator proves to be the ultimate appliance as the units function both as a cooler as well as a food heater. These are usually plugged into a car’s 12-volt cigarette lighter socket. This is done for the cooling power of a 10-pound block of ice. The food is kept warm due to the foam insulation.

A mini refrigerator is also considered as space saver. These are especially useful for compact flats and motels, office or even cars. A compact refrigerator provides a good solution if one needs counter-height refrigerators and freezer accessibility. These small refrigerators can fit under a counter top or can easily be concealed in the corner of your room or in a supply closet.

Besides, the compact refrigerator also allows you the option of having shelves in the fridge or in the door as well. They also come with many features, which would largely depend on the manufacturer and the model. Bear one thing in mind, the more the features the higher the price.

The compact refrigerator can also have an ice dispenser or an icemaker. This would be a valuable feature for most people. Most of them also come with adjustable shelves and frost-free freezer compartments. Determine which features would be most important for you.

A compact or a mini refrigerator is also easy to transport and maintain.

When buying a Compact or a Mini Refrigerator:

Before buying a small refrigerator you will have to assess your finances. This will help you decide the exact size of the compact refrigerator. With this you can even know the brand you can opt for. Buying a bigger fridge but one, which is not reputed, would not prove to be a useful investment as compared to going in for a smaller model but belonging to a reputed brand. Before you go to buy a refrigerator, this comparison-shopping would definitely help you in the long run. Look at some consumer websites or magazine that may have ratings, which will help you to narrow down your choices even further.

Always know that the capacity of a mini refrigerator characteristically runs from 1.5 cubic feet to 5.5 cubic feet. Your needs will differ it you are holding drinks for your den or using it as the sole mini refrigerator in the studio apartment. Therefore, also consider the measurements of the space you have before making that purchase.

The location of the compact refrigerator proves to be very important when you are choosing the fridge. If possible, always use a measuring tape and measure the exact height, width, and determine whether the door of the fridge can be opened easily, if it does fit into that area.

A compact refrigerator functions very differently as compared to a domestic refrigerator. This mini refrigerator incorporates different mechanisms that are very rarely found in the home refrigerators. The cooling system is compact and fits into a small space. Here, the DC current runs through a heat sink to disperse or hold the heat within the container. Then a powered fan moves the air through the space to prevent dissipation. The domestic refrigerator uses gas to circulate the heat and radiates it from the back.

The compact refrigerator models available today are very sophisticated as compared to models available earlier. Most brands offer ultra stylish exteriors and compact, well-planned interior storage options-Adjustable door storage, freezer compartments with full widths, drawers that have large see through covers for better visibility of the food products etc.

Here’s a look at some of the features of a Compact Refrigerator:

  • Ice trays.
  • Tiny freezers.
  • Automatic defrost and Fuzzy logic.
  • The door hang is generally convertible to right or the left side.
  • Adjustable shelves.
  • Doors that hold bottle fingers.

How To Save On Purchasing Appliances

January 31st, 2009

How To Save On Purchasing Home Appliances

When purchasing household appliances, make sure to use the tips given here to save money.

best time to buy appliances Even though major home appliances are generally long lasting, if you are paying in cash, the initial cost for purchasing it will require a substantial amount of money. If you opt for financing the purchase of the home appliance, monthly payments, including the interest, will have to be paid for an extended length of time. Plus, you will also have to pay for the operating costs that you will incur monthly.

Given below are a few tips on how to save when purchasing home appliances:

  • Before actually purchasing a particular household appliance, ask yourself if you really need it. You’ll be surprised at how bringing it into focus like this will often lead to you giving up on the idea of actually spending money on getting a clothes dryer or an automatic dishwasher you may have been vaguely thinking about getting for yourself.
  • When you shop for new household appliances, it is a good idea to read the information given on the energy guide labels, which are mandatory on items like water heaters, furnaces, refrigerator-cum-freezers, refrigerators, freezers, dishwashers, clothes washers, and air-conditioners. These labels will tell you the estimated cost of operating the home appliance annually. Make a comparison of the various models and makes of the home appliance you require in order to find out which would cost less to operate. The amount you save on the operating costs over the life of the home appliance could be quite considerable. If these savings are invested it could draw an interest.
  • You should also take into consideration the purchasing prices of the different models and makes of the household appliances that you compare. For instance, check if the purchasing price of the energy efficient automatic defrosting refrigerator-cum-freezer is more than the one that is not as energy efficient. And then calculate if the cost of operating it over the life of the appliance will be greater than the difference in the purchasing price. Generally, choose the model and make that will provide the best financial deal.
  • Sometimes, it may be cheaper in the long run to replace a particular home appliance instead of getting it repaired. Decide according to what you think will be the most financially advantageous.
  • When you compare prices while shopping, find out the trade-in amount you will get for your used gadget. Sell it if you find that you will get more by selling it instead of trading it in.
  • When you contemplate purchasing a home appliance, don’t rush and buy it immediately, paying its full price. Instead wait to buy it on sale. Most home appliances are put on sale some time or the other in the year. It would mean saving as much as 10-25%, perhaps even more, of the actual price.
  • Never be embarrassed or hesitate to haggle when purchasing a home appliance. You could be surprised at the amount of discount dealers will be able to give you.
  • As a rule of thumb, never buy on impulse. Home appliances are costly items, hence you need to give it considerable time and thought before actually making the purchase so that you buy exactly the what you require at the best price possible.
  • When purchasing a home appliance, don’t head first for the models that are the most expensive. Instead, check out the models at the lowest price range. Although these models will be basic, without any of the ‘extra frills’, they may suit your requirements quite adequately. In case they do not, then check the models in the next price range, and carry on likewise, until you find the gadget that you feel is just what you have been looking for. If you begin with the models in the topmost price range, you may end up buying a home appliance with features you really do not need, and yet you will have paid more.
  • When shopping for used or new home appliances, look around, and compare prices at several places, like appliance stores, online outlets, garage sales, auctions, thrift shops, home remodeling businesses, appliance and furniture warehouses, rental shops, departmental stores, as well as the bulletin boards where you live or work. In addition, find out from friends and acquaintances if they of anybody selling a particular appliance. The more avenues you look in, the higher the chances of you finding what you are looking for at a lower price than you would have to pay otherwise.

Buying Household Appliances at a Discount

January 1st, 2009

Buying Discount Kitchen Appliances


When buying discount kitchen appliances, UK shoppers tend to wander round the various discount superstores trying to make up their minds as to what they really want. It seems simple at home when they decide to buy a new washing machine or dishwasher to replace their old one that would cost as much to repair as buy new, but once they walk into that store it all changes.

Perhaps you are moving into your first home, and are looking for the best you can get with the cash you have available. You might have your own reasons for purchasing a new kitchen appliance, but irrespective of what appliance you want to buy, whether it is a large kitchen appliance such as a freezer, or a small kitchen appliance such as a bread machine, the same principles apply.

You get to the store and not only do you see a large number of different makes and models, but also a large number of prices. Suddenly all your plans and discussions go out of the window because you have no idea what make or model you want. Not only that, but you are not sure any more if the store you have chosen is offering the best choice or the best prices. So what do you do? You ask an assistant.

discount home appliances south bay

Assistants generally help you as much as they can, but there can be problems. In many stores, whether it is a small High Street shop or a discount superstore on a retail site, the staff may have been instructed to push one particular model or another because a new range is coming in. Or perhaps it is not selling so well, and the store wants to shift the stock. There is nothing underhand about any of this, but keep in mind that the advice is not always impartial.

The other problem you have is that the staff are conversant only with the products that they sell, and certainly wouldn’t recommend another that is not in their range. Therefore you decide to go onto the next store, and compare prices. There you will likely find different models of discount appliances, or if they are the same the prices will be the same because the stores have agreed not to compete on price they would end up giving the stock away! They compete on other aspects of the sale, such as extended warranties or delivery costs. You have therefore no idea of what prices are available elsewhere for the same items.

When shopping, you don’t really have the time to check out all of the specifications, even if they were available. Take a simple small kitchen appliance UK stores sell country-wide. A deep fryer. Only if you check out the specs of various models side by side will you be able to appreciate the range of features available in these relatively simple kitchen appliances.

There are the regular features such as safe cool zones: cool sides and handles, and also systems that raise the basket before opening the lid to prevent the oil from splashing. You can get anti-odor and anti-grease filters, and also a warning when the filter needs changing. How about an indicator light that tells you when the oil needs to be changed, and then draining tubes that lets you drain and store the oil, and makes changing oil and cleaning a lot easier?

You can get rotary fryers where a rotating basket dips in and out of the oil as it rotates, saving on oil and also given a healthier and less greasy result. There is a lot more, but unless the store you enter has models with these features you won’t know about them. So what’s the answer? A comparison site such as ShopSuperMarket.

The benefits that such comparison and review sites provide you with include the ability to check out different models and makes of large and small kitchen appliances right in your own home – and then place an order without having to step out of the door! You can see all of these different features on your deep fryer, and compare the prices you will pay to buy them online. Don’t forget: buying a UK kitchen appliance online is generally a good bit cheaper than from a regular High Street store.

You are also provided with a comparison, not only of the kitchen appliances, but also of the online stores selling them. The stores are given star ratings by real UK online shoppers, so that you satisfy yourself that the store of your choice will give you not only an good deal, but also excellent service.

So next time you are in the market for discount kitchen appliances UK online stores can give you a great deal, and a comparison site can allow you to check out the models on offer side by side in your home. You will not only save money, but will get the best you can for what you spend, and will not miss out on any of these great features that your local offline stores might not have available to show you.

Summary:
Buying discount Kitchen Appliances from normal stores or retail centers can provide you with a bewildering array of products and prices. A comparison site like Online Shopping UK can guide you through the various features and offers available on kitchen appliances from a wide range of online stores and auction sites, and allow you to get the best deal for your money.
