Remodeling Tips: Buying Multiple Appliances from Different Brands

There are a lot of variables that factor into a kitchen remodel. You want your cooking space to not only have a consistent and pleasant aesthetic, but you also want to make sure all of your appliances are functioning as efficiently as possible. Many of our customers here at Happys Appliances Outlet ask us if they should buy all of their appliances from the same manufacturer in order to achieve that consistent aesthetic, which is why we decided to write this blog to help you decide whether to stick with one brand or purchase from multiple brands.

Reasons for Buying One Brand Only

If you’re a stickler for minor details, you may actually want to purchase all of your appliances from the same brand. While most appliance brands manufacture items in the same colors (white, black, stainless steel/black stainless) some product features such as handles and the finish of the stainless steel might not look exactly the same. The average guest in your home will almost certainly never notice these minor discrepancies, but we understand why you might want to avoid these small variations. You also may want to stick with one brand because of a special promotional offer, but when you shop with us, we’ll always allow you to mix and match brands to achieve the best price possible.

Reasons for Buying Multiple Brands

Considering that there are no real good functional reasons for buying matching appliances, we recommend buying the appliances you like the most regardless of the brand. When looking at consumer rating reports, you’ll see that there are virtually no brands that rank the highest in all the different item categories. The last thing you want is to buy from one brand exclusively because they make good refrigerators, only to be stuck with an inefficient dishwasher because the brand doesn’t specialize in making them. Buying the best performing appliances you can regardless of brand will increase the resale value of your home more than buying all of your appliances from the same brand will.
