Jan 13, 2006 -- Consumer Reports names top appliances

Consumer Reports recently rated dishwashers and several other appliances to find out which are the best quality for the best price. The best buy, according to the February issue, is $330. When it comes to microwaves, the best buy was just $75. Clark had no idea people were spending a lot on microwaves, but they are. The $75 model CR picked cooks food much better than the $800 model. How about refrigerators? The most reliable brand is Whirpool at $630. The least reliable was Sub Zero at $5,600.

  • appliances-ovens & microwaves
    Our wall unit oven and microwave recently bit the dust. My wife, being the frugal person she is, has decided to replace it with a free standing range and overhead microwave combo instead of a new wall unit combo. After consulting CR, we have decided to go with a combo from Whirlpool that will cost HALF as much as replacing the wall units. We will make new cabinet space out of the "hole" where the old unit was AND get upgraded appiances with the latest technologies for much less than replacing the expensive wall unit alone.
