Always take time to research and have a clear guideline to direct your search for the most cost effective and sound appliance. Let me give you some tips to keep handy when strolling over to your neighborhood scratch and dent warehouse for that appliance you need to buy.

• Make a list of your budget, the space constraints, which you should measure in advance, you need to know how big and how high you can go, style and color if you are particular about the item blending in with your existing kitchen or room.

• When checking out the appliance do not feel backward to ask questions; find out how the appliance works and check that controls operate in a natural manner.

• Check the appliance completely inside and out, in the presence of a sales clerk who will be able to confirm your findings, if for example something is missing from the appliance.

• Check the warranty and delivery of the appliance – you should be aware that most scratch and dent warehouses do not provide delivery, providing instead the contact for their delivery agent, which cost will be on your account.

• Always try to find an appliance that works because if you think you will make a big saving on something with parts missing, you are mistaken - you will not only have to pay for the delivery of the appliance, you will then be saddled with repair cost and purchasing or replacement of parts cost and all this will add up to a lot more than you budgeted, not to mention the hassle involved.
