Shortie's Appliances

Not sure what happened or why but I had an electric dryer delivered. Paid 135 for delivery and installation only to be told they don’t install the vent, neither have what they know to be the proper vent according to my housing community(not public housing as the delivery guys assumed just affordable). They require the vent that doesn’t look like a slinky I’m sure it cost more which is why they don’t have it. I would have appreciated being told this information at time of purchase so I could make an informed decision versus being informed by the delivery guys. The dryer is running loudly like it’s ready to fall apart (they are sending a technician Saturday I’m within my 30 day time period thank God) and I will have to pay someone else to install proper venting. Long story short I could have spent less with Costco had a newer electric dryer and proper installation for one flat fee. Buyer be ware the fine print says they don’t install gas dryers mentions nothing about electric. Lesson learned buyer be aware, otherwise very expensive purchase for a used 2006 dryer.

Wonderful experience. Absolutely excellent price. I wanted an older model, non HE washing machine. I DIDN'T want one with sensors and DID want the corkscrew agitator to replace my newer model which has been nothing but a pain in the arse since I bought it 6 or so years ago. I spent a few weeks checking back in at Shortie's until I saw the model I wanted. They get new appliances in daily so you don't have to wait a long time to get what you want. Throughout the process I talked with a number of sales people and they were all incredibly nice, knowledgeable and helpful. They delivered it that week and the delivery guys were also extremely nice, professional, and helpful. Over-all it was a great experience and I highly recommend Shorties. If you buy more than one appliance, they can deliver them in one shot, which will save you money on delivery costs. As it so happened, I also needed a stove, which I bought there and it's perfect!!! Shortie's will remove the old items so you don't need to worry about that. One small note that people may find helpful. I have bought used items my entire adult life and some of these items come from smoker's homes. As a former smoker, I am highly sensitive to the stale after-smell that pervades these items. The bad news: After doing a load, I became aware that the washing machine had that smell. The good news: This smell, as well as 99% of all other unpleasant smells can easily be completely eliminated by running an Ozone Generator Air Purifier Deodorizer. Ozone generators remove odors by releasing ozone gas, a highly reactive molecule that oxidizes and breaks down odor-causing compounds.These things are a necessity if you are smell-sensitive like I am. You can find them on Amazon for under $100 (mine cost about $75 but it is INVALUABLE). You just run it as close to the source of the bad smell as possible for an hour or so (read the instructions carefully and DO NOT run an ozone generator with people or pets in the house. Also, keep plants away from them). After running the Ozone Generator on top of the washing machine with the lid open for about an hour and a half, I am happy to say that the smell was completely eliminated and I am totally stoked about my new used washing machine!

Best appliance buying experience so far. Bought a frigidaire refrigerator from these guys about 5 years ago and it's still working great! Also our dryer went out over the weekend and all the new stores were out of stock. Went to Shorties and found a great LG dryer which is basically brand new. Was able to take it home and get it up and running immediately. The staff is very friendly and also super knowledgeable about all the makes and models, pros / cons, and also service considerations and long term durability. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be purchasing from them again! Update: Also needed to replace my microwave recently. Shorties was literally the only place that had something nice and new in stock that was an exact fit. Picked it up same day and installed a half hour later. No time wasted! Plus it was brand new in the box with full manufacturer's warranty.
