by Diana Lamirand

Consumers buying home appliances seek the best value, performance, and price. Many shoppers trust Big Sandy Superstore to deliver all three with our wide selection of time-tested and budget-friendly appliance brands.

Want all new appliances to complete your home remodel? Our four-piece kitchen appliance packages offer buyers an affordable way to outfit their kitchens in style by combining ranges, ovens, cooktops, refrigerators, dishwashers, and microwaves into one perfect purchase. For those with a newly built house or more extensive remodeling project, we sell six-piece appliance sets to help you save even more money.

 Need to replace an old, broken-down appliance with a shiny, new French door refrigerator or built-in dishwasher? Big Sandy Superstore offers great deals on those, too.

 Reference this kitchen-appliances buying guide to help you choose the right appliances for your home — in whatever finish, size or style suits your needs. Prefer to shop our selection online?

Cooktops

If your imagination is too big for a kitchen range, may we interest you in a cooktop that you can fit over any countertop or cabinet? Whether you’re in the market for a gas cooktop or electric cooktop, our catalog has got you covered.

With many KitchenAid gas cooktops offering five burners, you can fit more pots and pans—enabling more culinary versatility than ever before. The 36-inch gas cooktop includes Downdraft, an integrated ventilation system that doesn’t require a separate hood. Featuring a 17K BTU professional burner (for searing and low simmer settings) and a 5K BTU Even-Heat™ Simmer Burner (for precise simmering and melting), this cooktop can handle it all.

Electric cooktops make easy work out of post-dinner cleanup. With many top brands offering glass-surface models, cleaning your cooking station is as easy as taking a damp paper towel and wiping it over the flat elements. Whether you're boiling pasta water, melting chocolate for fondue, or simmering a delicate sauce, the Samsung 36-inch black electric cooktop has an element for your needs.

If you’re itching for innovation, an induction cooktop—a type of electric cooktop—is where it’s at. Distinguished by its magnetic induction cooking technology, an induction cooktop delivers amazingly fast heat that distributes evenly across the surface of the pan so you get golden results every time. The Frigidaire Gallery 36-inch black induction cooktop boasts an Auto Sizing™ Pan Detection feature that automatically senses the size of your pan to only send heat to whatever small, medium, or large pan you are using.

Wall Ovens

For every fancy meal you make on your cooktop, you’ll surely crave dessert. Single and double wall ovens have become increasingly popular among culinary enthusiasts over the years for their flexible installation options and for the built-in appearance they bring to any kitchen.

KitchenAid strikes again—this time, with their wealthy selection of beautiful wall ovens. Their 30-inch stainless steel electric single oven exudes bold design and functionality with a glass-touch display and fan-powered convection baking.

If gas wall ovens are more your speed, a Frigidaire wall oven is what you need. With the 23.88-inch black single gas wall oven, you can easily select options or manipulate cooking temperature with our easy-to-use controls, and vari-broil temperature  allows you to choose between two heat levels.

And for a true space-saving appliance, look no further than the wall oven microwave combo from Frigidaire Gallery. The Frigidaire Gallery 30-inch stainless steel electric oven/micro combo promises to be the Swiss Army knife of any kitchen with self-cleaning cycles, Quick Preheat and True Convection oven settings, and auto-adjusting power levels and cooking times for microwaved meals.

Dishwashers

Tired of pre-rinsing or hand-washing dishes every night? Replace that clunky old dishwasher with one of our best dishwasher brands like Bosch, LG, Frigidaire, and more. Whether you prefer a built-in dishwasher, portable dishwasher, or drawer dishwasher, Big Sandy has a model to fit every budget and space.

Looking for reliability, high performance, and high efficiency? Check out our nearly 200 Energy Star dishwasher models—from half-load to full-capacity tub bowls—to save water, time, and money.

Washers and Dryers

Stacked washers and dryers save homeowners money and space. Try the Whirlpool Gas Stacked Laundry set for only $1,349, after discounts. It comes with a dual-action agitator with fabric softener dispenser and 3.5-cubic-foot washer capacity, as well as a 5.9-cubic-foot dryer capacity with the AutoDry™ Drying System, which senses when clothes are dry.

Prefer to buy a traditional laundry set without breaking the bank? Big Sandy’s wide selection of affordable washers and dryers includes options for front-load, top-load, mega capacity, electric, and gas. Want a little color to spice up your laundry room? Choose from sapphire blue, satin nickel, or slate, instead of the typical white or stainless steel, to add some life to your drab laundry routine.

Backed by 60 years of experience, the highly trained and knowledgeable staff at Big Sandy Superstore can help you find the perfect kitchen appliances for your home, from the most practical and budget-friendly brands to the more luxurious models with all of the latest smart technology.
