The sales guy (Josh) was good, others early in the sales cycle were less helpful. It seems like there is a shortage of these right now, or at least that is what was presented, so we did not get a great deal on it, but overall happy with the sales process.

Appliance Sales questions, answered by experts

One of the best ways to prevent costly repairs is to take good care of your microwave, including cleaning your microwave regularly. If your microwave is covered in an embarrassing amount of gunk, there are a variety of simple tricks to get your microwave squeaky clean.

Common household ingredients like lemons, vinegar, and baking soda will combat grease as effectively as harsh chemical solutions. Microwaves kept in good condition typically last about ten years.

Junk removal usually includes removing unwanted items from your property, loading it into a dumpster or a truck, and then carting the junk off of your property to be disposed of at a dump site. In most cases, your dumping fees—charged by the dump site—are included in your estimate, but you might want to confirm this expense with your junk removal team. Some junk removal companies offer additional services, like a deep clean after junk removal and moving and packing services, in case you’re getting rid of garbage as part of your relocation efforts.

There are many warning signs that your small appliance needs to be repaired, with specific signs depending on the type of appliance. Here are some general warning signs that apply to all small appliances and indicate that a repair is a good idea:

Visibly frayed wires or bent plug terminals
Failure to turn on or operate normally
Abnormal sounds during operation
Plugging the appliance into multiple outlets shorts the breaker or trips GFID outlets
Appliance emits strange odors during operation

Like cars, the most expensive part of a dryer is any electrical component, specifically the control board. For newer dryers, this single part, excluding the labor required to replace it, can easily be worth more than half the price of a new unit. While you can sometimes source these more expensive pieces (ask a contractor friend if they have any) when the control board is shot, it’s common to sell the unit for parts and replace it with a new one.

Some new appliances you add during a home improvement project may qualify for tax breaks. You could receive a tax deduction if the appliances are going into a rental property. If the appliances qualify for energy-efficiency tax breaks, you may also be able to take a tax break.
