Home Appliance Reviews

Is it time you upgraded the white goods around your house; be it a new air conditioner or maybe some top of the range kitchen appliances? Our customer satisfaction ratings can help you make a better buying decision when you’re shopping for home appliances. Deciding on the perfect appliance for you can be a timely, costly, tough decision, which is why many shoppers tend to do a bit of research before making their purchase. But with millions of websites and reviews available, the whole process can be exhausting.

Canstar Blue has developed appliance customer satisfaction ratings to bridge the gap between consumers, and help them research the latest and greatest products available. Our appliance reviews website and the ratings themselves are guided by the principle “by consumers, for consumers.” That means our ratings represent the wider consumer sentiment of everyday Australians.

Our surveys ask how shoppers felt about their appliance purchases; some people were happy, and some people weren’t! Those responses were recorded, fed through a methodology, and translated into ratings.

Our formula for rating appliances is simple; overall customer satisfaction drives the awards, not price. We’ll also show you how satisfied customers are with their appliance’s price tag, durability, size, design, and so on. But basing our awards around overall customer satisfaction ensures brands are recognised for offering a complete experience to consumers.

As your preferred appliances comparison site, we are not here to push a certain product or brand; we are here to help you make an informed decision. To start browsing through the brands, click on the logos below to view more details on the appliance type it’s most associated with.

Appliances tips from our expert

Whether it’s a fridge, TV, coffee machine or microwave, deciding what appliance to buy can be a little easier with these tips:

• Know exactly what you will be using it for: It’s easy to get carried away with options that offer all the bells and whistles, so make sure you’re crystal clear on what you need and why. This way you’ll ignore any add-ons that could cost you more.
• Check energy efficiency: Large appliances like fridges or dishwashers can use a substantial amount of your electricity. Review the energy ratings to make sure it will work efficiently, or check out our list of energy efficient appliances.
• Compare prices: Make sure you’ve shopped around to compare from at least three different stores to make sure you’re getting the best price.
• Ask an expert: If you’re not sure which product is right for you, take the time to talk to an expert in the trade, or even friends and family who bought the same thing. Even better, check out what thousands of Aussies who bought the product say in our Canstar Blue ratings.
• Read the user guide: Finally, when you do get your new appliance make sure you learn how to use it properly. It sounds simple, but understanding each function, figuring out what temperature or setting works best, or even how to clean it properly, could add plenty more time to the life of your appliance.
