Call us tightly-wound you may, but we went ahead and ordered our appliance package yesterday from Sears. We had to provide appliance dimensions to our builder anyway for built-in cooking. We looked at a few options, but decided on the KitchenAid package with Whirlpool Duet laundry pair (see the picture). It didn't take us much effort to shop for the best deal in town, and Sears managed to knock it down by a few points. We walked away very happy customers, and with over $2000 below our initial budget for appliances. We were also able to take advantage of an EneryStar tax exemption program so for once we actually owe CRA less money!
If you are looking for pleasant shopping experience, superb customer service, and competitive prices, look no further than Sears in Richmond Hill on Red Maple. And remember to ask for Maurice! Please PM me if you need his contact information.
