Are there ways to reduce the cost of a new appliance?

• <div><p>One way to reduce the cost of a new appliance is to look for sales and buy on certain holidays, like Memorial Day weekend and Black Friday. If you don’t mind a blemish or two on the appliance, look for scratch-and-dent units, which are often available at a significant bargain. </p></div>

What are the signs I should replace my appliance?

• <div><p>While frequent or costly repairs may make you think about replacing your appliance, other signs to replace an appliance include unusual noises and high utility bills. But also keep an eye (and nose) out for more dangerous signs, such as a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/microwave-is-sparking.htm">sparking microwave</a>, a smoking oven, or a leaking fridge. Appliances that spark, smoke, smell foul or burnt, or are leaking may mean that there are broken parts, and this brings higher risk of fire, shock, and water damage.</p></div>

What is the most common cause of microwave failure?

• <div><p>The magnetron, which is the component that generates the microwave energy used to heat your food, is the most likely piece to cause your appliance to fail.

About half of that cost goes toward labor, and the other half is for a new magnetron.

Super high pressure sales. They quoted 3x the cost compared to our other two quotes, then brought the price down if we agreed to sign today. Even when we said no, they still tried to pressure. Made my wife uncomfortable.

Appliance Sales questions, answered by experts

One way to reduce the cost of a new appliance is to look for sales and buy on certain holidays, like Memorial Day weekend and Black Friday. If you don’t mind a blemish or two on the appliance, look for scratch-and-dent units, which are often available at a significant bargain.

Many refrigerators have a dial with numbers ranging from 1 to 5 or 1 to 10, with the lower numbers representing colder temperatures and the higher numbers representing higher temperatures. For a fridge with a dial that goes up to 5, most homeowners find 3 or 4 to be the ideal temperature setting, and 6 to 8 is usually best if yours goes up to 10. It’s a good idea to get a fridge thermometer to monitor your fridge temperature, as not all appliances are the same, and internal thermometers aren’t always entirely accurate.

While frequent or costly repairs may make you think about replacing your appliance, other signs to replace an appliance include unusual noises and high utility bills. But also keep an eye (and nose) out for more dangerous signs, such as a sparking microwave, a smoking oven, or a leaking fridge. Appliances that spark, smoke, smell foul or burnt, or are leaking may mean that there are broken parts, and this brings higher risk of fire, shock, and water damage.

Options include countertop, over-the-range, and built-in models. Choose based on kitchen layout and functionality.

The magnetron, which is the component that generates the microwave energy used to heat your food, is the most likely piece to cause your appliance to fail. Unfortunately, your microwave won’t serve any purpose without a functioning magnetron, so not only is this the most common repair, but it’s also the most important.

Repairing a broken magnetron usually costs between $100 and $200 or $175 on average. About half of that cost goes toward labor, and the other half is for a new magnetron. Higher-end microwaves may demand larger or more complex components, which could increase your repair cost.
