What does scratch and dent mean?
A scratch and dent appliance is a new or like-new unit that picked up a cosmetic mark on the way to the showroom: a scuff from the warehouse, a small dent from a delivery truck, a scratch from a forklift. Big retailers will not sell it at full price, so it comes to an outlet like ours. Most marks sit on the sides or back, where cabinets, counters and walls hide them once the appliance is installed.
The mark is only skin deep. The compressor, motor, burners and electronics are the same as on a unit in a perfect box, which is why a scratch and dent appliance can save you hundreds of dollars without giving up anything you use every day.
Scratch and dent appliances we carry
Scratch and dent refrigerators
French door, side-by-side and top or bottom freezer models. A dent on a side panel disappears once the fridge sits between cabinets, and the cooling system is untouched.
Scratch and dent stoves and ranges
Gas, electric and induction ranges and wall ovens. Marks on a side or back panel are hidden by the counter; burners, oven and controls are tested before sale.
Scratch and dent washers and dryers
Front load, top load and stackable sets. Laundry rooms hide the sides of a machine, so a small blemish costs you nothing in daily use.
Scratch and dent dishwashers
Built-in and portable dishwashers. With a built-in model only the front panel shows, and the sides disappear under the counter.
Brands include Samsung, LG, Whirlpool, GE, Bosch, KitchenAid, Maytag and Frigidaire. Scratch and dent stock changes every week, so check today's in-stock deals or call (213) 826-5352 to confirm a unit is still here before you visit.
