Experience buying Cancelled Order and Graded Cheap Kitchen Appliances

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone else has had any experience buying either graded or cancelled order items. I bought a Miele Fridge Freezer from https://www.newlifeappliances.co.uk about 5 months ago and was planning to get more appliances from them.

I was originally planning to buy a Miele fridge freezer that retailed at around £1600 before going a head and ordering it I decided to have a little shop around, this was when I found Newlife appliances. They were selling the same fridge freezer, brand new for £900 as a 'Cancelled Order item from Original Retailer'.

I decided to bite the bullet and just go a head and order the fridge freezer. It arrived 2 days later and in fact was brand new in box. (It even had the manufactures warranty paper work inside)

This saved me just over £700!:j

I recently noticed that they are selling a Miele washing machine for around £700 that retails for £1100. I figured as I've already saved £700 I may as well get myself a new washing machine! :whistle:

The only difference is that this time it's listed as 'graded new'. In the photos the product looks perfect and on the phone they told me that the washing machine would not have been used.

Has anyone else had experience with 'newly graded' appliances?

    I decided to go ahead and purchase one of NewLife Appliances cheap washing machines

    I went with the graded Miele washing machine that was £710 (Plus £19 postage). It retailed at £1150 so it's quite a huge saving overall!

    This should be with me by Wednesday morning so I'll let you know how it goes if anyone is interested!

    You don't get the Miele warranty though do you?


    You're spending £710 on a second hand washing machine without a guarantee. One of the reasons Miele is so popular is their extended warranty so if on the off chance something goes wrong you're covered.

    The washing machine is 'graded new' so it's never been used before and at a HUGE discount.

    As for the warranty, NewLife offer one with the product but at the end of the day it's a Miele machine. Miele appliances will still be running long after humans are gone.
