The Best Used Appliance Places in Edmonton
A few weeks ago, our dishwasher leaked. It did not just drip a few drops on the floor, but created a massive, soapy, flooding disaster all over the kitchen. We expected guests, a group of friends that would stay over for a few days, hence a dishwasher was an essential part of cleaning after lunch and dinner. Unfortunately, this ill-fated appliance did not inquire of our plans and provided us with a perfect bonding opportunity of washing dishes with one pair of hands and drying them with another.
Just like with any other calamities, the breakage of appliances never comes at a perfect time. More often it is never expected, and even less anticipated. Still, it happens. Besides inconvenient interruption of routine, a failure of any kitchen or laundry appliance, with further replacement or repair involves unforeseen spending. Coming back to my story, we found a tempting deal on a brand-new dishwasher. However, the wait time was about six weeks. Since our guests already left, (and two working adults do not create much mess), we decided to wait. However, if that is not a solution for your case, today’s guide will walk you through the best possible solution when your dishwasher breaks—the used appliance stores you could shop at right now.
Often shopping for an appliance replacement is not necessarily about a tight budget, but urgency. (Of course, if you are shopping on a budget, there is no better place than a warehouse of used, refurbished, scratch and dent appliances.) As one reviewer of the best used appliances in Edmonton noted, their family of five could not go longer than a couple of days without a dishwasher. Hence, they chose to purchase a second-hand one and did not regret it.
In this guide, you will find the best five used appliance stores in Edmonton (some of which also carry brand new machines), recommended by the city residents who shopped there.
Our Methodology
You want to be confident in the quality and available warranty when buying appliances, with no exception on used fridges, washers, dryers and dishwashers. That is why our list, although not that extensive, includes only the best shops. How do we know that? By meticulous research and analyses of customers’ reviews found on Google Reviews and Facebook. Moreover, as we are not the only guide on all-the-best-in-Edmonton, we studied what other guides had to say about used appliances stores (for example, Best in Edmonton).
The Appliance Shop
Rated as the best-used appliances store in Edmonton (4.8 stars on Google), The Appliance Shop is a team of qualified experts that provide customers with guidance, and outstanding service. That is seen through most reviews.
For instance, one of the clients, who found The Appliance Shop, fantastic (exclamation mark) noted that she bought a dryer three years ago for $200.00. It is not fancy, but it does what she needs it to do. It needed the replacement of a thermal fuse. From talking to Jim at The Appliance Shop to Trace the service technician, they both were polite and professional, she continued. Trace had the problem fixed in less than fifteen mins. “For me, I will likely never buy a new dryer or other appliances,” she concluded.
The best part is the one-year warranty The Appliance Shop provides on used items. That alone shows a thorough check of every appliance and their confidence in quality and good condition. The shop also carries a vast selection of different brands and offers delivery and installation services.
As another customer noted, he called for appliance repair and sent a video of the noise his dryer was making. The technician let him know because of the age the cost would be almost as much as purchasing a new one. They gave him a great price, delivered, set up and took the old dryer away. “Highly recommend,” he concluded.

Appliance Outlet carries new scratch and dent appliances, and since 2011 is the center for all returned GE products in Alberta, Manitoba and Saskatchewan. That allows customers to choose from a stock of the best products sold at the lowest prices.
A customer who just recently bought a dishwasher from Appliance Outlet noted that this was the third appliance she had purchased over the years and every single time she had nothing but exceptional experience. The sales person provided her with an affordable price on a good unit. 100% will buy from here again, she continued, and she highly recommends it to anyone who is thinking about getting an appliance.
Another client called customer service “first class service from walking through the door to loading his new washing machine”. The salesman was amazing. Provided him with time to think and answered all questions. He was not pushy at all, and the customer felt comfortable taking his time to make a decision. The salesman even put the washer he was deciding upon on hold until the following day.

When buying the fridge, the staff member answered all questions and double-checked the condition of the fridge she wanted.
Another satisfied client noted that Maysfield is one of the best places in Edmonton to go if you are looking for parts or used appliances. He was looking for a burner element which was discontinued and was able to find a matching part here.

If, however, the replacement of old kitchen and laundry appliances is unavoidable, the shop has a lot to choose from (deep freezers, microwaves, washing machines and more).
As a satisfied client said, they bought kitchen appliances from Appliance All Service, the fridge and stove were used, but in excellent shape and basically as clean as the day they left the factory.

The delivery/installation of the appliances went without a hitch and they have been enjoying our updated kitchen in the months since.

Questions about refurbished or second-hand appliances
Are used appliances worth it?
Budget speaking, yes, purchasing used or refurbished appliances is worth it. Especially if you are planning a full kitchen renovation. However, make sure to check if the cost-efficient fridge or dishwasher runs as smoothly and flawlessly as a brand-new appliance. That means they would have to be professionally checked and repaired before landing on the sales floor.
How to choose used appliances?
Well, perhaps the most important side of buying used appliances is to stay away from garage sales and places like Facebook Marketplace. On the contrary, specialized used appliance stores promise professional checks and repairs on every product. When buying from a store you are promised at least one year warranty and repair services in case something goes wrong.
On top of it, prepare by setting aside a budget, know the preferred style and size, as well as research available brands and models. It does not matter if a used dishwasher or a microwave cost lower than brand new ones, at the end of the day it is your financial decision. Choose wisely and do not neglect the consultation of an expert on the sale floor.
