Default Home appliances recommendation

I need a washer and dryer for a new home in Shady Brook. Any recommendations for a place that will deliver and install? Thanks in advance.

Heard quite a few times where the big box stores installers have been a nightmare.

Many years ago purchased a replacement microwave from Home Depot. The two installers who showed up had no clue what to do. Went to a local appliance store and their guy had it done in 5 minutes.

Haven't used them but will in the future due to Lowes / home Depot being all sub contractors...

Prefer to stay away from Lowes and definitely not home depot

We have bought appliances there in the past. It was a good experience from shopping to delivery. 1 Day service. Just took my neighbors there yesterday, same experience

Good Luck

You will find that most places are similar for the product. Delivery, install and take away of old appliances may have a cost difference. Gas dryers may require special installers to insure leak free gas lines

On a side note, pay close attention to installation dimensional requirements. Some homes have a specific room designed for the washer and dryer. Be alert to overhead cabinets, wall to door depth, etc. Dimensions could limit your model selection. Measure before you shop. I speak from experience (BAD) . Hopefully you are around to ensure those dimensions are part of your buying process.

Costco is great we've used them. Also Conn's Homeplus delivered our washer and dryer from Ocala for a competive price.

I’ve always had great luck with Best Buy. They’ve had good sales and still matched prices if I found them lower before delivery date. My latest kitchen set is the new white glass by Samsung. They also come in many other colors of glass very chic and sleek looking. Got tired of the stainless. Best Buy’s installation and follow up were great too.

I bought my washer/dryer in early 2023 from Best Buy - wasn’t impressed with the communications and responsiveness of the sales dept. Installation went OK, but wouldn’t use them again. I know better than to buy from Lowe’s or Home Depot, as I’ve had major issues with both before moving to Florida, as a result of the inferior sub-contractors they utilize for installation. For what it’s worth, I would look into Costco for any future appliance purchases/installation, as several neighbors have been very satisfied with their overall process.
