Home Appliances
Home appliances are electrical or mechanical machines designed to perform a household function, driven by other than human power. Appliances are categorized into small appliances, major appliances, and consumer electronics.
Major appliances such as dishwashers, clothes dryers, refrigerators, air conditioners, and stoves are considered "white goods."
Appliances dramatically improve our quality of life by helping us complete time-intensive tasks that previously required tremendous amounts of physical effort. So when an appliance breaks, it’s important to have the right documentation, tools, and parts to fix it!
How do I identify my appliance model?
Appliance model information is generally found on a sticker somewhere on your device. More detailed information on locating your model number sticker is available on our individual appliance pages.
