Appliance outlet stores offer the same products as other appliance stores, but with lower prices. If you prefer to see machines in person and get help from a customer service representative, major appliance stores like Sears have physical locations. If you prefer to do your own research online, there are also some online-only appliance outlets to consider.

Below, we list the appliance outlet stores with nearby locations and those that let you shop online.

We’ve Done the Comparing for You — Here’s What We Recommend

All of the appliance stores on our list offer sizable discounts, a variety of delivery options, and a wide range of available products. However, the overall best option is Best Buy’s outlet section.

Best Buy offers up to 60% off its outlet products, with additional savings on open-box, refurbished, and pre-owned items. It offers delivery for all purchases, and installation and haul-away services are available for many products. Since Best Buy is a nationwide chain, you should also have a location nearby, meaning you have the option to see the products in-person or shop entirely online — or, a combination of both strategies.

Pacific Sales Kitchen & Home, which is owned by Best Buy and offers similar deals, is also a good option, though its only standalone showrooms are located in California.

    Great list!

    Is it still safe to shop from Sears; if I go and buy a Kenmore stove from them and they go bankrupt, what will happen to a warranty?

      Hello,

      Smart question. Though unfortunately, there’s not a simple answer. If Sears were to go bankrupt, warranties would be determined by what happens in bankruptcy court. Many different things could happen. Sears could honor the warranty in a different way such as giving customers a settlement payment. Another company could buy Sears’ assets right away and keep your warranty intact. Know that you may have to file a ‘proof of claim’ in any case to make sure you get what you deserve. Since Sears is such a large company, there would be a lot of pressure from the bankruptcy court to treat customers right. And if Sears does go under, as mentioned earlier, the stores will likely be bought by another company that will honor the warranties. So basically, you should be pretty safe but it would be a good idea to lean on the manufacturer’s warranty instead of any type of store warranty. A manufacturer warranty will remain even if the store you bought an item from goes under.
