It’s usually more affordable to repair small appliances than replace them, with the average repair cost of $150 and the average replacement cost around $300.

However, if your appliance is nearing the end of its useful life anyway, it might be more cost-effective to replace it. A professional appliance tech could help you decide what’s best.
