Best Dishwasher
Bosch 800 Series SHPM88Z75N

The best-selling Bosch SHPM88Z75N has been on the market since 2019, and it still wins our Best of Year award because we haven’t found another dishwasher that can beat it. Part of Bosch’s 800 series, a group that contains the best dishwashers we’ve ever tested, the SHPM88Z75N provides excellent cleaning, well-machined racks, and unbeatable drying capabilities thanks to its patented, low-energy zeolite heating method.

Best Affordable Dishwasher
Beko DUT25401X

The best thing about the Beko DUT25401X is that it pairs an excellent, energy-efficient performance with an incredibly low price tag, giving you a pretty powerful bang for your buck. Its Normal cycle hit above average with its stain removal prowess, and the Heavy cycle knocked out food stains like Ali in the ring with a near perfect score. It also dries dishes like a champ at the end of the Normal cycle, with every plate and glass coming out bone dry. Read the full review.

Pros

  • Excellent performance

  • One of the highest-value dishwashers for its price

Cons

  • Hard-to-push control panel

Best Refrigerator
Bosch B36FD50SNS

The Bosch B36FD50SNS French-door fridge’s ability to score unwavering, near-perfect temperatures inside both its refrigerator and freezer compartments brought us up short during our lab testing session, because it typically doesn’t happen. Pair this with a spacious interior and humid crispers, and this French-door fridge is second to none. If we have to forgo extras like a flex drawer to get this, which in this Bosch fridge you do, it’s fine by us. Read the full review.

Pros

  • Solid temperatures

  • Lots of fridge storage

  • Through-the-door dispenser

Cons

  • Its shelves only have a spill-capture lip on their front

Best Basic Refrigerator
Haier HA10TG21SS

If you’re in the market for an entry-level, counter-depth fridge, there are fewer options better than the Haier HA10TG21SS top-freezer. This is a budget buy all the way, one that offers an impressive performance for the initial investment. While its smaller stature means less storage space compared to a full-size model, it has impressive temperature performance and adjustable-height, spill-capturing shelves—two rare features to see in a fridge at this price point. Read the full review.

Pros

  • Counter-depth

  • Steady temperatures

  • Great value

Cons

  • No extra features

  • Lower capacity

Best Side-by-Side Refrigerator
Frigidaire FRSS2623AS

The expansive French-door fridge style often throws shade on its more awkward cousin, the side-by-side, but if you’re looking for a lower price tag paired with unbeatable performance, it’s worth noting that the Frigidaire FRSS2623AS is the best side-by-side refrigerator we’ve ever tested. It boasts incredible temperature regulation, more space than average, and a handy water and ice dispenser. Overall, this is a seriously solid machine. Read the full review.

Pros

  • Maintains even temperatures

  • Low electricity demand

  • Lots of fridge storage

Cons

  • Freezer is a bit small

Best Gas Range
GE JGB735SPSS

When it comes to gas ranges, the GE JGB735SPSS excels at its core competencies, offering even baking, perfection in air frying, and an effective true convection mode. All these qualities put it at the top of our list of best gas ranges we’ve tested. You won’t have to wait long to get dinner in the oven, since it preheats lightning fast, even when compared to other gas ranges. Extras include a center griddle burner, but no smart features. Read the full review.

Pros

  • Fast pre-heat

  • Even baking on one-rack

  • Solid air-fry mode

Cons

  • No smart features

  • Uneven multi-rack baking

Best Electric Range
Whirlpool WGE745C0FS

The Whirlpool WGE745C0FS electric range is a knockout across the board. It passed every test we threw at it with flying colors, from boiling water to baking pizza. Its ability to multitask sets it apart from other ranges, in particular having the option to bake two dishes at different temperatures simultaneously and fit at least four pots on the cooktop at once. It's chock-full of features, and True Convection mode will produce deliciously crispy foods akin to an air fryer. It's available in stainless steel, black, and white finishes, so it’s designed to match most kitchens. Regardless of the finish, we like the look of this range in particular because of the ultra-sleek smooth cooktop. There's a reason it's the best electric range we've tested. Read the full review.

Pros

  • Effective burners

  • Large oven capacity and spacious cooktop

  • Bakes evenly across a single tray

Cons

  • Lower oven doesn't bake cookies evenly between two trays

Best Induction Range
GE Profile PHS93XYPFS

The GE PHS93XYPFS slide-in induction range is sleek and stylish, not to mention it boils and bakes better than the best induction ranges we’ve ever tested. It features an incredible range-top performance paired with a true convection oven that provides excellent consistency in baking. In keeping with the GE’s Profile brand’s tech-forward approach, the PHS93XYPFS is feature-packed. Along with an air fryer mode, it features remote control and monitoring via Wi-Fi, a smart pan sensor, a warming zone, sous vide capabilities, a guided cooking mode, and an internal camera. Read the full review.

Pros

  • Nice design

  • Excellent cooking performance

  • Monitoring via Wi-Fi and remote control

Cons

  • Air fry setting disappoints

  • Additional purchase required for some features

Best in Kitchen Design
Samsung Bespoke

While Americans first heard about Samsung’s Bespoke refrigerators at CES 2021, the electronics and home appliances giant broadened its sleek, custom-design offerings to the rest of the kitchen this year. Finally, consumers have a say in appliance aesthetics, beyond stainless or matte finishes, with the ability to select from panels, in either glass or steel of a dozen different colors, that they can then mix and match across the Bespoke Samsung kitchen suite and even the appliances themselves. Sick of a color after six months? Buy a new panel without having to buy a whole new appliance. Find refrigerators in a few styles, including French-door varieties, bottom freezer, and column fridges. Consumers can also shop Bespoke over-the-range microwaves, ranges, and dishwashers. Bespoke appliances combine Samsung’s trademark SmartThings smart technology with a design look that’s completely different from anything else on the market. Read the full review.

Pros

  • Solid fridge temperatures

  • Flexible-temperature drawer

  • Customizable aesthetic

Cons

  • The custom-color panels are a separate purchase

Best Front-Load Washer
Electrolux ELFW7637AT

The Electrolux ELFW7637AT rightly ranks at the top of our list of best washing machines, because it is a true performer. During testing, we found that it mixes water and detergent ahead of time for a better wash, and it can deal with various tricky stains, from protein to oil. The internal water heater adds a lot of versatility, allowing you to sanitize clothing of common diseases, like E. coli, get rid of allergens, and help keep your whites as bright as can be. It also offers options like Extended Refresh, which tumbles laundry after a cycle is finished to keep it from getting musty. Read the full review.

Pros

  • Extraordinary cleaning power

  • Has its own internal heater

  • Easy-to-read controls

Cons

  • A few slow cycles

  • Occasionally smelly gasket

Best Top-Load Washer
GE Profile PTW900BPTRS

The GE PTW900BPTRS is the ultimate crowd pleaser, and it is one of the best top loaders we’ve ever tested—especially when it comes to food and sweat stains. It also has plenty of quality features like an automatic detergent dispenser and anti-mildew coating on key components. Under GE’s tech-forward Profile umbrella, it’s no surprise that the PTW900BPTRS is also one of the smartest washers around. Not only does it offer a smart wash that measures soil and detergent levels to ensure your clothes come out clean, it has a built-in Alexa voice assistant, which allows you to adjust settings and listen to music.

Pros

  • Good cleaning power

  • Antimicrobial coating, steam, detergent reservoir

  • Large wash drum

Cons

  • Loud at times

  • Alexa integration seems buggy for some users

Best Washer for Large Families
Maytag MHW8630HC

The best Maytag washing machine we’ve ever tested, the MHW8630HC has a massive drum and fast cycle times, which is only part of the reason it’s our top pick for doing large loads of laundry multiple times per week. It also has a sanitize cycle that can achieve temps of 130°F, which easily eliminates common, illness-causing bacteria, from, say poopy diapers and snotty sleeves. Lastly, it features an overnight cycle that tumbles laundry after a finished wash to keep musty odors out of your clothes. Read the full review.

Pros

  • Power Heavy Duty cycle

  • High number of features

  • Streamlined controls

Cons

  • Expensive

  • Slow cycles

Best Compact Washer
Miele WXR 860 WCS

If you're in the market for a compact washer, but don't want to sacrifice cleaning quality, the Miele W1 WXR860WCS is one of the best options available. It offers just as much cleaning power as an average full-size washer, but manages it from within a very compact frame. We also loved its effective spin cycle, which got rid of more water than many of its standard-sized competitors. This will save your dryer a lot of work, and also save you money on your utility bill. Read the full review.

Pros

  • Powerful cleaning

  • Effective spin cycle

  • Smart features

Cons

  • Expensive

The Maytag MED7230HW is our current best dryer because it has all the features you want and some you didn’t know you needed—like letting you know when you need to adjust a load. It boasts simple controls, a solid drying performance, and decent smart features. Performance is strong, especially for its price point. Its Regular cycle finished faster than the average dryer—64 minutes versus 71—and got our test load of laundry 100% dry each time. Read the full review.

Pros

  • Solid drying

  • Good smart features

  • Hamper door for easier loading

Cons

  • None that we could find
