Good to know
Large appliances are where buying used saves the most in absolute money: a fridge or washer costs half to a third of new with 5–10 years of life left. The listing flow comes from moves and kitchen renovations, so machines are often sold working and cared for — sometimes still under warranty.
Three things sell an appliance faster: the exact model in the title (buyers search by it), a photo of the rating plate with the serial number, and honest notes on quirks — a scratched door, a louder spin. When arranging pickup, mention the floor and elevator: for large items that's half the logistics. A working machine with delivery sells 20–30% higher than 'urgent pickup'.
Questions & answers
Is a used washing machine a good idea?
Yes, if it's under 7 years old: a quality washer lasts 10–15. Ask to run a spin cycle — worn bearings knock audibly. Check the door seal for mold and the gasket for tears.
How do I move a fridge without breaking it?
Transport it upright, or on the side opposite the compressor. After the move, let it stand 4–6 hours before plugging in so the oil drains back into the compressor.
Which appliances are risky to buy second-hand?
Gas stoves and water heaters without papers — a certified technician must do the hookup anyway. Electric appliances are lower risk: faults show up the first time you switch them on.
How long does a fridge last, and when is used no longer worth it?
A quality fridge lives 12–20 years. Under 8 years old is a confident buy; past 12 it's a compressor lottery. Inverter models are quieter and cheaper to run; make sure the compressor doesn't tick or cycle every minute.
Built-in or freestanding: which is better to hunt for used?
Freestanding: it's universal, easier to move and connect. Used built-ins only make sense for your exact niche dimensions — verify to the centimeter. The upside: built-ins often sell nearly new after a kitchen replacement.
What do I check on small appliances — multicookers, microwaves?
Smell and bowl coating — scratched non-stick can't be restored. For a microwave, test heating evenness with a glass of water and check the mica plate. Turn small appliances on at the meetup — faults show within a minute.
