In Our Repair Services

Electrical appliances don’t come with a printed expiration date, but it is evident that they are not made to last a lifetime. When you have a broken appliance on your hand, you need to decide whether having it repaired or replaced is a better idea.

With appliances like a freezer or dishwasher, the cost of a new one is enough to warrant that you’ll want to have it repaired, but what happens when a small appliance breaks down? Usually, people throw it out and get a new one, considering it does not cost a lot. But is that a smart move?

Your appliance manufacturer or local repair technician can quickly and affordably when deciding on small appliances worth repairing, saving you the money and time you’ll spend on getting new ones.

The following are the two most common small appliances that work the hardest at home and can be repaired when they stop working:

  1. Toaster Oven
  2. Microwave

To help you decide when to throw out a broken device and when to replace it, consider the following:

Toaster Oven

If your toaster oven is showing these signs, it is worth your time and effort to have it repaired:

  • No power because of a blown fuse 
  • Does not shut automatically due to timer issues 
  • No or disorderly heat due to a bad thermostat 
  • The door won’t close

However

There are a few issues that warrant the replacement of your small appliances. Your repair shop can guide you if you’re having trouble deciding whether it’s worth replacing the appliance or not. If the issue is not worth repairing or the replacement parts are nowhere to be found, it is advisable to purchase new small appliances. It is worth investing in good quality appliances and keeping them clean after use, so they last longer and ensure that you get the most bang for your buck.
