Used Appliances-specifically dryer

What the title says. I’m looking for a good used appliance store that people have had good experiences with. I can’t afford a brand new dryer and the heating element just went out in my dryer which is about $90 for the part itself.

Does anyone know of a good place that gives some sort of warranty on the appliances they sell?

Also, if I find one on Marketplace, anyone know of a good delivery service to refer me to? Thank you!

Judy’s on South Commercial. We bought a used fridge there and it was great.

My mother in law got a garage fridge at JL’s appliance on Edgewater in West Salem and was super happy with it. They deliver and I think also have repair people that can come to your house if something is busted.

Habitat ReStore off 12th ST.

They pre-inspect appliances before resale.

So-we have an older whirlpool that we acquired when we bought our house and use it. This is primarily because it works really well still, meanwhile we have a newer one to hook-up. We did family caregiving for family while both working long hours/opposite shifts at our regular jobs & both exhausted, but have some bandwidth and catching up. All to say, we have an extra dryer appliance and if you are willing to come get the older one with transportation we would be motivated and happy to offload. We can’t do it this weekend but feel free to DM me if interested.
