Appliance Sales questions, answered by experts

Most microwaves last for around eight years; lower-end units may last as few as five, while higher-end microwaves could continue to work for ten or more years. A few factors will affect the lifespan of your small appliance:

How many people in your home use the appliance
How often you use the microwave
Brand and quality
Whether or not you maintain it properly
Style of microwave
Professional or DIY installation

You should check and calibrate your oven every year. Older ovens tend to be less accurate as they take on more wear and tear. If you need to recalibrate your oven more frequently, then it’s time to call a repair technician.

Costs range from $75 to $200, depending on the appliance type and complexity.

While beautiful, stainless steel is notoriously thin and more vulnerable to denting than other finishes. One way to avoid the potential for denting is to purchase a high-end appliance made with thicker stainless steel.

Small appliances typically include microwaves, toasters, toaster ovens, food processors, blenders, mixers, slow cookers, air fryers, coffee makers, rice cookers, and any other appliance that can sit on your countertop. Major appliances include refrigerators, dishwashers, ovens, cooktops, washers, and dryers. Some people may include HVAC equipment like condensers and air handlers in this category, too. Small appliances are more of a specialty, so there’s a good chance a typical appliance repair company won’t be able to service and repair small appliances.
