If you’ve just moved into a new place and need to buy your own oven, or if you’ve been putting up with a faulty washing machine or out-of-date refrigerator for far too long and finally want an upgrade, you’re in luck. For a limited time, shoppers can enjoy savings of 30% or more on major appliances at Best Buy.
Appliances like washing machines, dryers, refrigerators, stoves and ovens rank alongside big-screen TVs in terms of costly household expenditures, but unlike that new flatscreen you’ve been eying, appliances have the benefit of being essential. You can live without a 70-inch plasma TV, but try hand-washing your clothes or keeping your meat fresh without the right appliance in your home.
That “essential” status doesn’t just mean that you’ll have a much easier time convincing your spouse about the purchase, either. It also means you have some incentive to shop for the long term. Household appliances last a long time, especially if they’re well taken care of, so you’ll want to ensure you buy the make and model that not only suits your needs now but will also accommodate your needs into the future.
To help you find the perfect appliance deal for your home and maximize your savings, we’ve picked out some of our favorite appliance options included in the Best Buy sale. Pay close attention to our advice, because not only can you save some serious cash on what would otherwise be a major home expense, but you can also score free installation on select items, not only saving you time and money but potentially a major hassle as well.

Whirlpool Electric Dryer with Moisture Sensing
Let’s face it: you probably don’t want to hang-dry all your clothes and bedding. If you’ve already upgraded your washing machine, you should complete the pairing with this front-loading electric dryer from Whirlpool. It’s got a massive seven cubic feet of interior space, to help it handle the larger loads you’re transferring from your high-capacity washing machine, while it uses clever moisture-sensing technology to automatically stop the cycle when optimal dryness is achieved, preventing overheating or damage to your clothes. If you’re washing clothes prone to wrinkles (dress shirts, for example), you can activate the Wrinkle Shield Option, which will keep the tumbler operating for up to 2.5 hours after the dry cycle ends, preventing wrinkles from setting. Materials and construction are all top-notch, and you can even opt for a gas-powered model if that works better for your home setup.

Frigidaire Chest Freezer
If you’ve got the space for it, and if you have a large family to feed, there’s no better long-term investment than a good chest freezer. You’ll be able to buy more meat when it’s on sale, take advantage of bulk discounts and never have to worry about not having enough food on hand for family dinner or an impromptu outdoor BBQ. This 24.8 cubic-foot model from Frigidaire is especially convenient, not only because of the massive interior storage space but also owing to the convenience features, from the two interior baskets that slide into different positions and can hold smaller items for easier access to the included caster wheels that make moving this chest freezer into different locations much easier. There’s also a crystal-clear, LED digital display to read and adjust the temperature and a built-in lock with a pop-out key to help you restrict access to the freezer contents. Finally, a “freeze boost” option allows you to quickly freeze new foods you’re adding to the freezer, locking in the freshness faster.
