When It’s Time For a New Appliance, It’s Time For Appliances Online

Although our business model is based on you mending your existing appliances to get them working properly; we fully recognise that all appliances come to the end of their life at some point. If you are shopping for new appliances online I would recommend that you have a look at the Appliances Online website.

Here’s why I recommend them for your next appliance purchase:

  • From a functionality perspective their website instills trust. It’s easy to navigate and the product descriptions are clear and accurate.
  • Appliances Online encourage customers to rate the products they purchase. This means that you can get the real story on that new cooker you wish to purchase from someone who uses it every day.
  • They’ll price match if you find the item elsewhere cheaper and they’ve got a ‘no fuss’ 10 day returns guarantee.
  • They only charge £9.99 to recycle your old appliance. Make sure to check out the full details of their appliance recycling scheme.
  • If you have any questions for them Appliances Online are on Twitter.

I’d like to be clear in stating that eSpares has no commercial agreement with Appliances Online to promote their website. We truly like their website and have heard great things about them from our customers who have decided that it was time to buy new.

Winners’ Dinners…

And so I find myself preparing my first contribution to the new eSpares blog with heavy eyes, a headache and a general sense of weariness. Alas, last night I overindulged and today I am paying in kind. There is, however, a good reason for my sorry state today; last night, I went to the Econsultancy Innovation Awards Winners’ Dinner to collect the Most Innovative Digital Marketing Team Award. Now, I’ve never been to anything even remotely awards-related before. The closest I’ve come is watching the 2005 Brit Awards on TV, so it was with slight trepidation that I accepted the invitation to collect the award on eSpares’ behalf. My uncertainty was compounded when I found out the do was being hosted at the Park Lane Hotel – a place so swanky I thought I mightn’t even be allowed in.

My initial reservations proved to be unfounded (apart from an encounter with a menu that had words I didn’t understand on it – piperade? Magret?), and it turned out to be a wonderful evening. Esme, our designer, and I mixed and mingled with fellow victors, as well as chatting to a few of the very nice people at Econsultancy.Of course, that brings me back to my earth shattering hangover – spirits were high and the wine flowed like, well, wine. A good night was had by all; I suppose it’s a shame it had to end.

Even we’ve got to admit that spare parts are slightly dull. So you won’t see us writing about how passionate we are about appliances spares or how we take parts very seriously. What gets us excited is our customers. We work nonstop for them making our website better, keeping our product descriptions unparalleled, shooting ‘how to’ videos, answering the thousands of questions they leave on our website and having a smooth delivery process. The purpose of this blog is to document the adventures of a small company trying to make it big by making fitting appliance spares slightly less dull.
