How to Identify and Buy the Right Appliance Spare Parts Online

At Appliance Spares Warehouse, we understand how frustrating it can be when a trusted appliance breaks down. Whether it’s a washing machine, oven, fridge, or dishwasher — finding the right spare part quickly and affordably is key. This guide will help you confidently identify and order the correct part, without wasting time or money.

1. Know Your Appliance

Before you start searching for a spare part, locate your appliance’s model number. This is the most important detail to ensure compatibility.

  • Washing machines: Often found behind the door or on the back panel.
  • Ovens: Inside the door frame or under the cooktop.
  • Fridges: Inside the fridge wall or on the rear.
  • Dishwashers: Around the door edge or inside the panel.

Write down the full model number — even one digit wrong can lead to the wrong part.

2. Avoid Common Mistakes

Here are the biggest pitfalls people face when buying appliance parts:

  • Guessing the part based on appearance.
  • Buying cheap knockoffs instead of genuine parts.
  • Using part numbers from manuals that don't match your model.
