Open-Box Appliance Grading Overview 

Our open-box appliances are graded based on visible cosmetic imperfections or damage affecting the exterior appearance once installed. Regardless of grade, all appliances are fully functional and perform as intended. Below is a detailed breakdown of our grading system to help you understand the condition of each product:

Grade A – Perfect ConditionThese appliances are in excellent condition and appear flawless once installed. While there may be minor, non-visible imperfections elsewhere on the unit, these do not affect appearance after installation or functionality.

Grade B – Minimal Surface BlemishesGrade B appliances have minor surface blemishes or light scratches that are often difficult to notice. These imperfections do not impact the appliance’s overall appearance once installed or affect its functionality.

Grade C – Noticeable ImperfectionsThese appliances may have one or more surface dents or imperfections. While these flaws are more apparent, they are usually localized and may not be visible once installed. Functionality remains unaffected.

Grade D – Forward-Facing ImperfectionsGrade D units feature noticeable dents, scratches, or blemishes on forward-facing areas visible after installation. Despite these cosmetic issues, the appliance functions properly.

Grade F – Significant Cosmetic ImperfectionsThese appliances have prominent surface imperfections, including multiple dents, scratches, or blemishes that affect overall appearance. However, they remain fully operational and function as intended.

Important Considerations: Our team works diligently to identify all visible front-facing imperfections on each product. However, minor scratches, blemishes, or imperfections may be unintentionally missed during the grading process. This inherent risk allows us to offer our customers the best prices. We encourage you to review product photos and descriptions carefully before purchasing to ensure you choose the appliance grade that best fits your needs.
