Home Appliance Trends: August 2009
August 19, 2009 · Leave a Comment
Marketplace for home appliances has heated up considerably in last month. Consumers are looking for everything from replacement refrigerators to full kitchens. The high-end space is even being well represented again, as shoppers are inquiring and purchasing SubZero, Wolf, Thermador and some Viking. A few months ago, they were running from these brands and their hefty price-points and UMRP policies.
Hot Movers: Electrolux appliances (especially French Door refrigerators), GE Cafe line, KitchenAid Architect Series
Ice Cold: Anything from FisherPaykel save for the dishdrawers. Too many rumors, most unsubstantiated, about this company.
Starting to Gain Traction: Wolf, SubZero…still have a ways to go, but people are feeling a little more comfortable reaching deep into pockets for these brands.

Will LG Buy Viking?
July 11, 2009 · Leave a Comment
Rumors are rampant about this marriage.
The companies are actually pretty similar – great marketers with no semblance of an idea as to what service is!

DCS Offers Rebate on Outdoor Grills Barbeques
June 18, 2009 · Leave a Comment
I don’t know how many people are shopping for high-end outdoor grills but I would imagine the number is pretty low.
In an effort to turn some pieces, DCS is offering a handsome cash-back rebate to consumers.
$300 back on the purchase of a 30″ grill with rotisserie
$100 back on a 30″ cart
Offer runs from June 20-July 31,2009
DCS makes a damn good product, especially for the outdoors.

Homeclick.com Bites the Dust

Another web-only retailer succumbs to the correction.
Folks, be careful who you buy from. If it’s a web site or 1-800 # without a
tangible address with prices too good to be true, run, don’t walk, in the opposite direction.

New Professional Appliance Line from Frigidaire
May 4, 2009 · 1 Comment
I know many of you would think that using the word “Professional” to describe Frigidaire cooking appliances would be a misnomer, but I am hear to refute that mindset and show you that Frigidaire appliances offer much more than “landlord specials”.
I’ve been told that on Mother’s Day Frigidaire will introduce their new “Professional” cooking line, complete with a new logo and new SKU’s to round out their appliance line.
I don’t expect those who are shoppng for a Sub-Zero refrigerator or Wolf stove to pay much heed to this, but for those who want to spend significantly less, yet still land that professional loking kitchen, this may be the ticket.

What Appliances are People Punting in the Recession?
April 27, 2009 · Leave a Comment
This article from CNBC states that Americans are
redefining luxury in many places, appliances included.
Case in point – sales data shows that Americans
are dropping microwaves and air conditioners from their
lists of necessary items. I’m not seeing that.
Micros can be had for under $100 in this day. And if the recent warm weather continues in the Northeast, air conditioners will fly out of showrooms.
Here are the appliances that I’m seeing dropped from orders or no longer being priced in the first place:
- ice makers
- wine refrigerators
- steam ovens
- coffee systems

Breaking News: SubZero-Wolf Price Increase Effective 9/1
July 8, 2008 · 3 Comments
Sept. 1 is becoming quite an important date in the world of SubZero and Wolf.
Not only is this the date when their UMRP pricing policy goes into effect, but now we find out there will be 3-4% price increase across the board (at least in the Eastern region).
If the housing/credit/stockmarket/commodities crises haven’t got you down and you’re thinking of a Sub/Wolf kitchen, you’d better act in the next 6 weeks or your wallet’s going to get a bit lighter.
