A griddle is nearly the same as a grill and, therefore, just as worth the cost. Griddles offer more options in terms of what you can cook because there’s more contact between the food and the cooking surface. While flat-top griddles are great for steaks and burgers, they also work beautifully for nearly any protein or vegetable—zucchini, eggplant, fish, bacon, and more.

Deciding whether to repair or replace a small appliance depends on its quality, age, and the cost of the repair. It is often more affordable to repair them, with an average repair cost of $150 versus a replacement cost of around $300. If you have a high-quality or top-of-the-line small appliance, it is almost always more cost-effective to repair it. However, a common guideline is to lean toward replacement if the repair cost is more than half the price of a new one. If the appliance is already nearing the end of its useful life, replacement might be the better long-term choice. A professional appliance technician can help you decide by estimating the appliance's remaining lifespan after the repair.

You can disable a fridge door alarm on most modern models by pressing and holding the door alarm button for three seconds. The door alarm button is located on the control panel, which is usually on the face of the door if you have a digital display or just inside one of the doors on the body of the fridge. But keep in mind that the door alarm is a helpful feature that can identify refrigerator problems and reduce your running costs, so it’s best to leave it on.
