At a Glance:
Appliances are a necessity in modern homes. Everyone would love to have the latest and greatest appliances; however, our finances do not always line up with our luxury appliance dreams. Thus, it is often beneficial for many of us to look for deals and discounts on luxury kitchen appliances and luxury appliance brands so that we can own the appliances that we want at a price that we can manage.
Discounts on luxury appliances may seem too good to be true, but they do exist. You just have to know where to look to find them. Below are some different ways you can get luxury appliances at a discounted price.

Clearance AppliancesPromotions
One way to find appliance deals is by shopping promotions. A promotion is a special discounted price on certain brands and appliances. You never quite know when a promotion will pop up (although they can be more popular during holiday weekends), you just must watch for them and be ready when they pop up.
Bekins offers promotions on brands such as Dacor, LG Signature, LG, Miele, Thermador, Viking, Jenn Air, Cafe, GE Profile, XO, and Monogram, many of which are luxury appliances. Thus, unlike many other companies, promotions from Bekins do apply to luxury appliances! They offer promotions on such items as refrigerators, wine coolers, vacuum cleaners, washers and dryers, ovens, dishwashers, microwaves, kitchen ranges, and more.

Bekins’ promotions help you save in a few different ways. Some brands offer “bundle” promotions, meaning they offer a discount on the price if you buy two or more appliances of their specific brand. This could save you a lot of money if you need more than one luxury appliance. Another way their promotions can help you save are ones in which they offer you a “percentage off the total price” when you purchase select appliances they have notated.
Another promotion they have frequently is promising money off the total price if you buy two items together, like a washer and dryer. Or they’ll offer money off if you purchase a specific model of their inventory, like a refrigerator or dishwasher, etc. All these various promotions can help you save hundreds to thousands of dollars if you can take advantage of them.

Rebates
Along with promotions, Bekins also provides many different rebates for their appliances. A rebate is a financial incentive for the buyer that offers to give them money back on an item that they purchase, whether that is a dollar amount or a percentage of the total price. For instance, at Bekins, Miele (which is a well-known luxury appliance brand) is offering a one-hundred-dollar rebate on select vacuum cleaners. So, if you were to purchase a $350 vacuum, in theory, you would only pay $250 in the end. You would simply take your vacuum home, fill out and send in the rebate form, and receive a check from the company for $100.
Rebates are an incredible way to save and get discounts on appliances. While a rebate offer typically involves a little work from the buyer, it is well worth it. All you have to do is make sure to take the time to send in the rebate; this does take some initiative and work on your part. However, if you do the bit of work that getting a rebate entails, you can get a decent amount of money back on a luxury appliance that you purchase.
Bekins has rebates available for a multitude of appliances, including luxury ones! Dishwashers, refrigerators, washers, dryers, microwaves, oven ranges, wine coolers, and vacuums are a few of the appliances that include rebate opportunities at Bekins. Rebates help you save by reducing the total amount of the appliance you buy. If you know you are going to send in the rebate form, then you can guarantee that the money will come back to you.

Sales
Appliances that go on sale are a tried-and-true way to take advantage of appliance deals on the models you want. Watching and waiting for sales to happen can be a tricky thing, and they are typically only offered for a limited amount of time, so you have to act quickly when you find one. Every store does it differently, and every brand does it differently as well. Thus, to be an informed buyer, you must be on the lookout.
One of the most popular times for appliances to be on sale is major holiday weekends, such as President’s Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's. Some stores have sales quotas that must be met, which means the end of the month is a great time to watch for appliances to go on sale as well. You can also watch as the end of the year approaches; many new models are released right before the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays, which means the older models are often sold to make room for the new inventory. Knowing the right time to shop is huge when it comes to finding sales on appliances.
Contrary to popular belief, you can find luxury brands on sale as well. Though it is not common to find brand-new models on sale, the older versions of luxury brands do go on sale every once in a while. This is a great option if you want an appliance that is well-made and durable but does not need the latest and greatest addition with a plethora of features.
Sales help you save money on appliances in an obvious way- they allow you to spend a lesser amount of money on an appliance than what was originally asked for. When you buy appliances on sale, you get the same quality appliance that was originally released on the market for a lower price. Sometimes all you have to do is wait for the right time and you will be rewarded with an amazing sale and low price on the appliance you have been dreaming of.

Clearance
Shopping for appliances on clearance is a great option for getting discounted appliances. Appliances tend to go on clearance right before the new models of the same item are set to be released. As said above in this article, wholesalers typically release their new models in the fall or early winter. However, they can happen at other junctures in the year as well; it just depends on the retailer. For instance, Bekins has different brands of appliances on clearance at various times throughout the entire calendar year, which can easily be found on their website. The appliance is pictured along with the original price, which is slashed out with the new, lowered price beside it. Bekins also shows you the dollar amount you will save by purchasing an appliance on clearance.
At Bekins, luxury appliances do go on clearance, which means you can find incredible deals even on the most superior of appliances. Purchasing appliances on clearance is one of the best ways to receive discounts. By doing this, you do not have to lower your standards or purchase a less-than-excellent appliance brand. Rather, you can research which appliance brand you like and wait for the new model of the one you want to come out. Most likely, you will be able to get the exact appliance you want for a great price if you bide your time.
Scratch & Dent
Purchasing an appliance with a scratch and dent discount can be an excellent way to get a lower price on an appliance; even luxury appliances are included in this deal. A scratch and dent discount is when the appliance in question has received some sort of superficial damage. This can happen during transport, from the wear and tear of being a floor model in a store, or some other way.
Whatever the cause, retailers will often offer a discount on these damaged models. This can be a great option to help you save money on an appliance, especially if the scratch is on the side of the appliance where perhaps it would be against the wall, or it is dented, but it is small enough that you do not feel bothered by it. If a small knick or dent does not bother you, you can work out some considerable deals. Some retailers will offer anywhere from 15%-40%, depending on the amount of damage. There is no set amount for appliances that fall under the “scratch and dent” category; every retailer and brand does it differently.
This is a great opportunity for the buyer to negotiate a lower, discounted price on the appliance. Oftentimes, if the damage is extensive enough, it can be very difficult for wholesalers to sell those appliances. If external damage is not much of a bother to you, purchasing an appliance with a scratch and dent discount is a very clever way to get a great price on a normal or luxury brand appliance.
