Refurbished and Used Washing Machines

Saving money is always a plus, so when you are in need or even just shopping for a new washing machine and come across a used or refurbished one, you should know the right questions to ask.

First question to ask is when you get the machine home and it does not work will they come out and fix it or if you will have the options to get your money back. Also what kind of warranty will they give you? On a refurbished washing machine you should have some time line such as 30 days to a year warranty. Remember there are two different warranty's one is a repair man will come to your home and the other is that you will be responsible to bring the machine back to the store, and in most cases they will be sending your washing machine out for repair, this can leave you without for a week or two. On a used machine you can have a verbal agreement however a written and signed agreement is better.

When you are looking at a refurbished washing machine you want to ask what was broken or why did in need to be worked on. Also ask why it has not been sold with being marked down with a lower price. And most important you want to know how many times it has been sold and sent out for repair.

A refurbished washing machine, it is factory repaired to work as new. The factory will run it through a few test washes before they will sell it. The price of the machine that is to work like new is a deal that you cannot pass on.

When the factory works on refurbishing a machine, they only work on the mechanical parts. They do not work on the outside. The appearance may not be like new. It may have a few dents, scrapes and scratches.

When you are looking at a used washing machine you should first ask why it is for sale. Then ask if it has had any repairs or given them any trouble. You will want to know how old it is, and if they used it every day and if so how many times a day. If it has been used every day for many years it may not have much life left. However some brands will outlast others by as many as five to ten years.

When you find a great deal on a used or refurbished washing machine, do not be shy to ask as many questions as you can think of. You are the one that will be using it when you get it home. You do not want to miss out on a great deal. If they do not want to answer your questions it is probable not the deal you think it is.
