Looking for Scratch and Dent Appliances in Tampa?

Posted on by

Upgrading your kitchen with high-quality, modern appliances doesn’t mean you have to pay top dollar at major big-box retailers. If you are currently searching for scratch and dent appliances in Tampa, open-box items are one of the best-kept secrets for savvy homeowners, landlords, and contractors.

Today, we are featuring a fantastic open-box deal in our showroom: in Fingerprint-Resistant Stainless Steel Microwave.

Let’s explore why open-box appliances offer unbeatable value and what makes this Whirlpool microwave a must-have for your home.

What Does “Scratch & Dent / Open Box” Really Mean?

Many shoppers assume that pre-owned or discounted appliances must have major internal damage, but that isn’t the case! Most scratch and dent or open-box units arrive at our showroom simply because the original cardboard packaging was creased, dented during transit, or opened for display.

Inside the box, the unit itself is 100% brand new, completely unused, and packed with all original factory installation hardware, turntable plates, and instruction manuals. You get a pristine, full-performance appliance at a steep clearance discount!

Key Features of the Whirlpool Over-the-Range Microwave

This Whirlpool model combines a powerful microwave with an efficient cooktop exhaust hood, saving valuable counter space in your kitchen:

  • Fingerprint-Resistant Stainless Steel: The sleek exterior is specifically treated to resist smudges and fingerprints, making daily cleanup as easy as a quick wipe with a microfiber cloth.

  • Powerful 300 CFM Exhaust Fan: The built-in vent hood features a 300 CFM motor class exhaust system with multiple speed settings to quickly clear smoke, grease, and heavy cooking steam from your cooktop.

  • Spacious 1.7 cu. ft. Interior: Generous interior capacity easily accommodates large glass bowls, wide dinner plates, or tall travel mugs.

  • Electronic Touch Controls: Smooth digital control panel featuring convenient presets for popcorn, defrosting, reheating, and quick-touch 30-second additions.

  • Under-Cabinet Lighting: Illuminates your stove or range surface so you can see your cooking clearly.

Why Shop Open Box at ABC Appliances in Tampa?

When you shop open-box inventory at our Tampa showroom, you get total transparency and immediate satisfaction. You can inspect the unit in person, verify all accessories are in the box, and take it home the exact same day.

Open-box brand-new units move faster than almost anything else in our inventory because they offer the luxury of a new store model at a fraction of the cost.

Looking for Used Washer and Dryer Sets in Tampa Florida?

Replacing your home’s laundry appliances separately can be time-consuming, expensive, and frustrating. When one unit fails, the other is usually not far behind. If you are currently searching for dependable used washer and dryer sets in Tampa, buying a high-quality matching pair is the smartest way to save money, streamline your laundry day, and give your home a clean, uniform look.

Today, we are featuring one of our absolute best laundry room combinations: a matching Maytag Centennial Top-Load Washer and Electric Dryer Set. Let’s explore why Maytag remains a top choice for smart homeowners, property managers, and large families.

Built with Maytag Commercial Technology

Maytag built its reputation on durability. The Centennial line is engineered with Commercial Technology, meaning internal components like the motor, drive belt, and wash tub suspension are built to commercial-grade standards. These units are designed to easily handle heavy loads from thick bath towels and denim jeans to bulky king-size bedding without stalling or shaking.

Feature-Packed Top-Load Washing Machine

The washing machine in this set offers maximum flexibility for all types of fabrics:

  • Versatile Wash Cycles: Easily select specialized cycles including Deep Clean, Heavy Duty, Normal, Casual, and Bulky/Sheets.

  • Custom Rinse Options: Features dedicated dials for Fabric Softener distribution and an optional Extra Rinse cycle—perfect for families with sensitive skin who want to remove every trace of detergent.

  • Traditional Agitator Power: Uses a classic central agitator to ensure dirty clothes are pulled down into the water for a thorough, deep cleaning every single time.

High-Efficiency Auto-Dry Electric Clothes Dryer

The matching electric dryer ensures your laundry comes out soft, warm, and ready to fold:

  • Automatic Moisture Sensing: Instead of running on an arbitrary timer that wastes electricity and bakes your clothes, the Automatic Dry cycle shuts off as soon as your fabrics reach ideal dryness.

  • Wrinkle Control & Air Fluff: Keeps clothes tumbling periodically with cool air after the cycle finishes, preventing deep wrinkles from setting in.

  • End-of-Cycle Alert: A loud, clear signal alerts you the moment your laundry is done so you can fold items right away.

Why Buy Matching Used Sets from ABC Appliances?

Purchasing pre-owned appliances from our Tampa showroom gives you ultimate peace of mind. Every washer and dryer pair undergoes a rigorous multi-point inspection by our technicians. We test water fill valves, drain pumps, heating elements, drum belts, and safety switches before deep-cleaning the units inside and out.

You get a fully serviced, commercial-grade laundry setup for a fraction of what a big-box retail store would charge for a single new unit. Plus, with our local pickup and rapid delivery options, you can skip long backorder delays and wash your clothes tonight.

What to Know Before You Buy a Washer and Dryer

Posted on by

If you’re searching for used washer and dryer sets for sale in Tampa, you’ve probably already noticed that your options fall into two buckets: private sellers on Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist (risky, no warranty, no recourse), and retail stores charging full price for brand-new units.

There’s a better option in the middle and it’s what we’ve been doing at ABC Used Appliances since 2008.

This post breaks down what Tampa buyers should know before making a decision, what makes a used set worth buying, and how to avoid the common mistakes that leave people stuck with a machine that breaks down in week two.

Why Buy a Used Washer and Dryer Set Instead of Separate Units?

Buying a matching washer and dryer set has real advantages:

  • Matching capacity — A mismatched pair often means your dryer is struggling to keep up with your washer’s load size (or vice versa), which wears both machines out faster.
  • Compatible cycles — Many sets are designed to pair well together, with cycle timing and heat settings that work in sync.
  • Better value — Buying together, especially used, almost always costs less than buying individual units separately.
  • One delivery, one transaction, Less hassle.

At our Tampa store, we often receive sets together, meaning you get a matched pair that came out of the same household and have worked side by side for years.

What Brands Are Worth Buying Used in Tampa?

Not all brands hold up the same over time. After years of inspecting and selling used appliances in Tampa, here’s what we see again and again:

Reliable used washer brands: Whirlpool, Maytag, Speed Queen, LG, GE

Reliable used dryer brands: Whirlpool, Maytag, GE, Kenmore, Samsung

Speed Queen in particular has a reputation for lasting 20+ years with basic maintenance  if you find a used Speed Queen, it’s usually worth the price. Maytag commercial-style top-loaders are also workhorses.

Brands to be more careful with when buying used: anything with complex touchscreen controls or proprietary electronics, more features means more that can go wrong.

Why Buy From a Store vs. a Private Seller in Tampa?

Here’s the honest comparison:

Private Seller ABC Used Appliances
Tested & inspected Unlikely ✅ Yes
Warranty None ✅ 30 days
Delivery available Rarely ✅ Yes
Can see it running Sometimes ✅ Always
Repair support after purchase No ✅ Yes

Tampa has a lot of private listings , but “it was working when I had it” is not the same as an appliance that’s been tested by a technician. We’ve seen plenty of machines that worked for one cycle and then died.

Private sellers on Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace may list lower, but those prices rarely include delivery, don’t come with any warranty, and you’re responsible if something fails the next day.

At ABC Used Appliances, our sets are priced competitively and include our 30-day warranty, and we offer delivery to Tampa and surrounding areas.
