Stainless steel, top loaders and other popular picks in appliances
Side-by-side fridge? Or freezer on the bottom?
Gas or electric stove?
Let’s face it, we can all be a little picky when it comes to choosing what appliances go into our homes. And with Lowe’s – you can be! As the nation’s leading appliance retailer, Lowe’s has a wide variety of brands and styles for you to pick from that are sure to suit your fancy.
For some appliances, customer preference really ranges. For others, like refrigerators, there are more obvious fan-favorites, especially when it comes to color. In 2018, almost half of the refrigerators bought from Lowe’s were stainless steel.
Black stainless is chic and stylish and is great for playing up the contrast in a black and white kitchen. Keep an eye out for matte stainless- the slate color pairs beautifully with natural wood or white cabinets and adds and chic and sophisticated touch.
However, data shows black finishes are becoming a big trend among customers. It’s the fastest growing color, with options like black stainless steel, black matte and black slate.
When it comes to washers, the preference is clear and has been for years: it’s all about the top loader. Eighty percent of shoppers looking to update their laundry room chose top loaders over front loaders.
Gas or electric? Turns out, most prefer electric. Only eight states in the U.S. purchased more gas stoves than electric: California, Illinois, Michigan, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York and Rhode Island. The other 42 states prefer electric.
No matter your preference or what appliance you’re shopping for, Lowe’s has you covered! (Tip: Memorial Day deals kicked off May 23 and include 40 percent off select appliances!)
