The other afternoon I was about to sit down and finish this latest post to my blog when a tractor trailer showed up from our distributor with fifty more appliances to be sold in our new Westfield scratch and dent outlet center.
That's right - fifty! - of all different models and types. This particular trailer was all General Electric pieces that had been returned to our distributor for one reason or another. Our next trailer -who knows? It could be a single brand such as LG, or it could be a mixture. Each week more appliances keep pouring in, keeping our new showroom stocked
The reason for the returns are as varied as the pieces we've been selling so far. We have everything from no-fits to items with dented rears or sides (if it's a fridge or range, who knows? - the dented side just might be the side concealed in your house, condo, or apartment), to distressed boxes to misorders. And just like 99% of the other pieces that have been flying out of Westfield, these appliances come with warranties (as well as the option of protecting your purchase with an extended warranty.)
We've been pricing all our scratch-and-dent merchandise at 30-50% below regular retail. Yes!! We're excited about this new opportunity for you to save significant $$, and for us to clear out some of our mistakes!
(Note! On some "harder to move" items such as vent hoods, wall ovens, and micro trimkits, in many cases we've gone below 50% off!!)
So, if you're in Western Massachusetts, Northern Connecticut, or even in the central part of Mass., and are in the market to save some significant dollars, give us a try here in Westfield. New product is arriving as quickly as older items are leaving!
Now, I've devoted quite a bit of blog space to scratch-and-dent merchandise the last couple of months. I don't want to ignore the rest of our appliance business however.
With spring -finally!!- approaching, a lot of people start thinking about moving, remodeling, or maybe just upgrading some tired appliances to freshen up their kitchen. Here at Manny's we can help you choosing a new kitchen appliance suite. We can also supplement our advice with aggressive pricing as well as manufacturer's rebates worth hundreds of dollars (often these rebates are not offered by the Big Box behemoth stores, by the way!)
I'm going to put together three kitchens. The first offers a four-piece suite for under $2000, ideal for rentals, apartments, or starter homes. The second suite offers a nice upgrade to appliances with more contemporary features and style, but still only about $3000 (and quite a bit less once you submit the rebates!) The third is a more upscale kitchen, to give you an example of what we can offer someone who invests a lot of time and attention to their kitchen.
I'm also including links to each product in case you'd like to explore any item's features in greater depth.
Also, To keep the upgrades clearer, I'm going to stay with the Frigidaire brand. I can, of course, show similar savings on our other brands as well.
First, a perfectly useful, Frigidaire brand basic kitchen in white.
This suite offers an efficient top-freezer refrigerator with glass shelves, a smoothtop range with an extra-large oven, an efficient dishwasher, and a companion over-the-range microwave:
Total $1846
Next, we step up to "Frigidaire Gallery".
Our appliances go from white to the more modern stainless steel. We upgrade from a top-freezer model refrigerator to a larger, more contemporary French door unit with an icemaker. We add self-cleaning and a convection/air-fry feature to the range. The dishwasher gets quieter, and adds a stainless steel interior, Finally, we give the over-range microwave with cleaner, more contemporary look and stronger exhaust fan:
French door fridge, internal icemaker FRFN2813AF $1449 https://www.mannystv.com/products/Frigidaire/frig/frfn2813af.html
Air Fry range FCRE3083AS $799 https://www.mannystv.com/products/Frigidaire/frig/fcre3083as.html
Finally, let's "step up" to a "Frigidaire Professional" suite!
Let's make the refrigerator counter-depth, and add a fourth drawer and an ice/water dispenser. Let's lose the back of the stove to create a more "built-in" look, and add a super-fast induction cooktop to the rangetop. We'll get a quieter dishwasher and add a third rack. Finally, we upgrade the microhood to a convection/micro combo unit, giving you that second oven when needed:
Counter-depth French door four-door fridge with ice and water dispenser PRMC2285AF $2599 https://www.mannystv.com/products/Frigidaire/frig/prmc2285af.html
