Get To Know Our Open Box Deals

Slightly imperfect for the perfect price

 Unboxing The Mystery: What Are Open-Box Appliances?

Open-Box items are like hidden treasures–a big-name appliance that costs a fraction of the original price. We call them Open–Box because they are not brand new in the box items.  These gems are often in like-new condition and offer a budget-friendly way to bring quality appliances into your home, complete with a touch of sustainability. Our Open-Box refrigerators, ranges, washers, dryers, and other appliances are rigorously tested and certified, and come with a warranty. 

All over our site, we’ve tagged our Open-Box appliances with our distinctive Open-Box icon, making it a breeze to quickly spot the deals on the appliances you want, need, and love.  

You can save hundreds if not thousands of dollars on top brands like GE, Whirlpool, LG, Samsung, and Frigidaire. That’s because our Open-Box appliances will cost you a whole lot less than the same model boxed up in traditional packaging. Plus, the beauty is, you could upgrade to a fancier model without breaking the bank. 

Oh, and guess what? When you buy an Open-Box appliance, you’re not just saving money–you’re saving it from the landfill. Ok, the stove doesn’t care, but the planet does, and so do we. 

Simply Imperfect for The Perfect Price

Clever slogan, for sure, but what does “simply imperfect” really mean? The truth is, we’re kind of vague about that term because it can mean a bunch of different things. For example:

  • It got dinged, dented, or scratched traveling from the factory where it was made to the retailer who was planning on selling it. Or enroute from the delivery truck to someone’s home. 
  • It was overstocked. A retailer had too many and wanted to get rid of them. 
  • A customer returned it because it was too big, too small, the wrong color, or they just had second thoughts. 
  • It was a floor model in a store (more like no-box) 

Decoding Our New Grading System: A Guide to Open-Box Deals 

The reality is most of our inventory is the result of, you guessed it, open boxes. The shipping box was opened only to reveal the fridge is not the right color, the range is too wide, the dishwasher door handle is cracked, or the side of the dryer has a scratch. So, when an appliance gets sent back, we buy it, fix it up, and certify it. Then we knock the price down A LOT and sell it to you. 

We know purchasing Open-Box appliances requires careful consideration. That’s why we have created an easily identifiable, color-coded system for grading each Open-Box appliance, making shopping online and in-store a breeze. Here’s what the different grades mean:
