Why Trust Gerhard’s Appliances

Investing in high-quality appliances enhances your home and simplifies daily life.

Whether remodeling or dealing with an unexpected appliance breakdown, shopping at an appliance outlet can save money while providing personalized customer service that big-box stores often lack.

In today’s blog, we explore the benefits of appliance outlet shopping, share the best ways to save, and offer tips for finding great deals on kitchen appliances at Gerhard’s.

The Appliance Outlet Advantage

Unlike big-box stores, appliance outlets specialize in home appliances. They know their products inside and out and constantly seek the best customer deals.

They are the best place to buy appliances, and there are a lot of ways to save at an outlet store, including:

  • Discounted Prices: You don’t have to wait for a seasonal sale at an appliance outlet. The best kitchen appliance deals are available all the time

  • Experienced and Knowledgeable Staff: Appliance outlets' staff specialize in appliances and know their products. Focusing on finding the right model to match a customer's lifestyle, budget, and needs, staff can help you get the absolute best deal for your money.

  • Bundles: Shopping for more than one appliance can offer extra savings with home appliance bundle options. Kitchens and laundry appliances can earn big savings when bought together, and their matching appearance gives your home a harmonious style.

  • Rotating Stock: National stores often carry the same stock week in and week out for months. At appliance outlets, you can find something new every time you visit, so you are not limited to just a few choices.

  • Scratch & Dent Deals: Outlets often have several ways to save more money on top of their daily low prices. Buying appliances that have a scratch or dent from transit but work perfectly well is one way to benefit from appliance sales.

  • Holiday and Black Friday Deals: In addition to low everyday prices, the savings at appliance outlets can be even better during holidays with sales events and black Friday appliance package deals. If you can’t make it for holiday deals, don’t worry; these discounts ensure that any time is the best time to buy appliances at an outlet.

  • Open Box & Overstock: Floor models, demo appliances, and returns have often been removed from their original boxes but still work perfectly well. We all throw the box away when we get our appliances home, anyway, so why not save extra money on your new appliance with open-box appliances on sale.

  • Discontinued Models: When manufacturers and big-box stores discontinue appliance models, they often stop selling them immediately, looking to outlet stores to purchase these extra appliances. When the models replacing them often have very similar features with some slight upgrades, buying discontinued appliances is a great way to save additional money.

Tips for Shopping at Appliance Outlets

Gerhard’s Appliances

Browsing your local appliance outlet is a great place to start shopping for discounts, but there are other ways to get the most out of your experience.

  1. Do Your Research: Knowing your needs and preferences can help a sales expert quickly find the right appliances for you. By taking some time to browse available features and styles before your visit, you can help speed up the buying process.

  2. Inspect Items Carefully: It is vital for open box and ex-showroom sales to ensure you know the extent of any damage to an appliance before purchasing it. Taking a few minutes to inspect an appliance on sale can ensure you know exactly what you are buying.

  3. Measure Your Space: customers can easily become excited by all the options at an appliance store and buy an appliance that doesn’t fit. Carefully measure your current space and appliances before shopping to ensure your new items fit perfectly.

  4. Ask About Warranties: While some appliances come with the confidence of long manufacturer warranties, others do not. Always ask about any warranty coverage for your new appliances and whether extended coverage is available to protect your purchase.

  5. Explore Financing Options: If your purchase is unexpected, it may not come at the best financial time in your life. Many appliance outlet stores offer financing options, letting you spread the cost over time.

  6. Be Flexible: Stock at appliance outlets is always changing, and you never know what might be available when you visit. Even if you have a good idea of which brand, model, or appliance you would like, keep an open mind, as you might find something better while you are there!
