Appliance Store
 
We just purchased a new home in The Villages and will need a washer and dryer. Can anyone recommend an appliance store (not the big box stores) for sales and dependable service? Thank you.

Check Costco in Claremont. They deliver to here, and it includes install, needed parts, and haul-away (if needed).

MVB Appliances - Leesburg and Ocala
 
We used MVB Appliances in Leesburg. Also have a store in Ocala. I did the entire thing on the phone. Sales and install was excellent. Prices were competitive.

We used Sears Online appliance store. We purchased LG and Samsung from their site and they were lower than anyone else by quite a bit with free shipping and installation. You will get an extra 10% off on your first order also. Check them out, they carry all of the major brands and models.

No same day on Sunday, we purchased a microwave few weeks ago on a saturday morning. They were booked on delivery and install till Tuesday morning but that was ok lived without working one for a few days. Installers knew their stuff.

BTW do people tip installers in Florida? We came from Va where it was not normally done and wonder about Florida culture?

Are you referring to the Appliance Direct in Fruitland Park? I don't see one in Leesburg.

Congrats on your purchase. Before you buy, make sure you know the dimensions of the appliance hookup site. Some of the appliance rooms have limited dimensions between walls and doors (Depth), Floor and overhead cabinets (Height i.e top loading lids). Width is not normally an issue. Installation of washers is simple plug in, water lines. Dryers may require a plumber if a gas line hookup.

One thing you are likely to notice. Appliance prices for the same model are basically the same at almost all stores. The difference is shipping, installation and Haul away charges.

Sams has limited models and essentially no show room. But they do offer free shipping , install (except Gas connection), and haul away if needed. Note Sumter County does offer $10 bulk item disposal if you call and get on schedule.

Good hunting.

I would never buy a Samsung appliance. Too many people have problems, and most repair places will not work on them.
