Is there such a thing as a commercial appliance?
By Appliance Expert Blog | September 30, 2014 at 08:31 AM EDT | No Comments

The idea of a commercial appliance that is used in the home is quite appealing. Hey, if it can withstand the rigors of a business, then it can live up to the needs of my family, right? There is even a design trend that is seeing many appliances that have that look. But is there such a thing as a commercial appliance? The answer is yes, and no. 


First, the yes. There is such a thing as cooking equipment and refrigeration that is used in restaurants, and washing machines that are used in laundromats and hotels, and yes, these items can be purchased for the home. You'll get the look, you'll pay the price, but you'll also need to call a commercial appliance or mechanical company to do the repairs, as there is little crossover in the repair side of things. 

Next, the no. There is no such thing as commercial quality in any appliance that is sold through regular channels for the home. If it says such on the control panel, it is just a marketing gimmick. You are just getting a regular machine with a label on the console with nothing different under the hood. 

If the reason you are looking for a commercial appliance is that you want durability, there are ways to achieve that in the home. For example, buying simple is better than buying complex. And buying more recognized brands is better than buying exotic (think Miele or Bosch). Durability can be found in certain designs, and not others. Have questions about this? Just ask.
