Best place to buy new appliances & furniture in Denver metro area?

I'm closing on a new house next week and need to pick up a new washer/dryer, as well as a bunch of new furniture. Just curious if anyone has any leads on where the best place is to buy NEW appliances, specifically a washer and dryer, and furniture. Delivery isn't a factor because I have a utility trailer and people to help move stuff. Previously I've always gone to AFW for furniture because they have so much selection, but if there is a better option out there then please let me know. There are so many places to buy appliances these days that I just don't know where to start, and I haven't had to personally shop for any in over a decade. Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.

I vote Lowes for appliances, sometimes Home Depot too.
Ive bought plenty in my years around Denver and unless you are going high end Viking or something nobody beats Lowes.
The "outlet" places are a complete ripoff with commissioned sales people pushing discontinued scratch and dent crap.
If you are at the point in life that you have outgrown matchy matchy same name brand for your fridge, stove, microwave, and dishwasher, big box stores have great deals on floor models too.
Ive seen plenty of W/D floor models at damn near 50% off MSRP if that's all you need.

+1 for lowes.
I did a complete remodel of our kitchen last year and lowes had the best prices.We replaced all kitchen appliances.
That said, Frigidaire Gallery has been nothing but problems and would not buy them again. Both our dish washer and fridge failed with in 2 months. Stove and microwave have been fine.
We have had their washer and dryer for almost 9 years with minor repairs. Most recent a motor in the washer went. ($295 for parts and labor).
Congrats on the new house and good luck[emoji482]

I have no clue on furniture places, we buy off Craigslist.

As for appliances, my wife plays all the stores against each other. We recently bought a new Samsung fridge and Whirlpool Dishwasher. For the dishwasher she had Home Depot match Lowe's and beat them by 10% (has to be an in stock item). Then she called Appliance Factory Outlet and asked if they would beat Home Depot and they did easily. Got a $700 DW for $460 out the door. For the fridge she gambled a little and played online stores against each other. Lowe's and Home Depot priced the fridge about $2100 and she found several online sources with rebates and free shipping. Ended paying $1625 for the fridge and we went to the warehouse where it shipped instead of having it delivered(that was a free option) so I could tear it down and inspect for damage. If there was any, I'd just refuse delivery and wouldn't have to pay.

Also, check out Whirlpool Outlet online. They have a distribution center out east. Bought a new dryer last year and stumbled across this place. They don't have a lot but was able to find a dryer that Home Depot currently sold for around $700 and was able to buy from the distribution center for about $400. They offer delivery for $40 I believe.

I don't care in the slightest about matching brands. My new kitchen has high-end almost new appliances and I am perfectly happy with them. I just need a washer and dryer. I am specifically looking for a conventional top-loading washer with a full agitator, not a H.E. washer, because I despise them. The USPS address change packets have a 10% off Lowes coupon, so that may just be the way to go.

Opie, I will be contacting you very soon about getting that safe moved. After six months of home shopping, I've finally found a place.

I hope you won't mind if I piggyback on your thread. I, too, will be shopping for a few appliances soon--I'll need a counter depth fridge and a washer/dryer set. So far, I've only checked Home Depot because I seem to be there 3-4 times per week anyway.

The salesman seems to be pushing LG products across the board. I've got Frigidaire Gallery appliances in my existing house. Knock on wood, they've been reliable, but the refrigerators are very noisy. My washer and dryer are Whirlpool and I haven't had a hint of trouble with them in 10 years. They're also staying with the existing house when I move.

The new house is set up for the front-loading style of washer and dryer. I've never had that style, so I'm not married to the concept, but there's plenty of room if that's the preferred setup these days. As for the fridge, it must be counter depth, stainless, and have ice and water on the door. It needs to be as quiet as possible, too, because it's pretty much in the middle of an open living area centered on the kitchen.

Any suggestions re: where to buy, what brands to seek and/or avoid, etc. would be appreciated. I never know if the salespeople are telling me the truth when they push a certain brand, or if they've just been told to push something because there's a sales bonus for doing so or if the profit margins are higher for that particular brand or whatever.

And I'd appreciate it if you guys would buy a Gun Trust or two within the next 30 days. This stuff is EXPENSIVE! [Shock][Shock] I'm probably going to spend almost as much on these appliances as I paid for my used 2wd Chevy truck.

appliances SUCK nowadays. They simply don't last. Oh sure, they are all efficient, but they don't last at all. (seriously, do your research, it's common for most things to just break down at 6-8 years now)

So, what that says is basically buy the cheapest thing, because it isn't going to last anyway. Which is really sad.

top loading washers last way longer (and do a better job) than side loaders. Just buy the cheapest set in your size range and move on.

consumer reports is really good at reliability for appliances.

The trick is to use a Lowes credit card, you get 5% off your purchase with the Lowes card. In addition the 5% off with the Lowes card you use the 10% off coupon you get with the change of address form and get pretty good savings that way. If you buy something that's already on sale you'll do even better.

The top loads are definitely the way to go. The front loaders are pretty unreliable, they get moldy inside and start to smell pretty bad.

I'm not sure if you can get non HE washers anymore. I think they're all that way now. I bought a Samsung set a few months ago that was on sale at lowes, the washer is top load but it doesn't have an agitator. I've been very happy with the job it does washing my clothes, the dryer is a steam dryer and my dress shirts come out looking like they came from the dry cleaner.

Mountain High Appliance in Louisville has always been good to us.

These days things are built to be replaced not worked on so yeah there is cheap crap out there.
We have had good luck with Frigidaires but everyone has their opinions. Kind of like when you ask who makes the best gun on here - you get the whole range.
