Appliances You Should Avoid in 2025: And What to Buy Instead
Not all appliances are created equal, and what works for one home might be a disaster for another. In this video, CEO Steve Sheinkopf and Director of Sales Francesco Froio break down appliances that might not be worth your investment in 2025.
We cover key problem areas like:
✅ Built-in Refrigerators – SKS and Thermador offer great features, but are they right for everyone?
✅ Combo Washer-Dryers – Convenient for small spaces, but do they work for larger families?
✅ Dual Fuel Ranges – High-end models like Wolf and Miele offer advanced features, but gas and induction might be better suited for different cooking styles.
✅ Induction Cooktops & Ranges – Faster and safer, but what about long-term reliability and service challenges?
✅ Downdraft Ventilation & Hidden Cooktops – Innovative ideas, but are they actually functional?
We also discuss common appliance failures and the importance of service availability—because no matter what brand you buy, issues can arise. Before making a purchase, it’s crucial to consider your cooking habits, space, and local repair services to avoid headaches down the road.
