14 New Appliances To Check Out At Costco

Costco is best known as a one-stop shop for buying bulk groceries, but the warehouse club is also a major retailer for appliances. Not only does Costco often beat big box stores on the price of appliances, but you'll also often find new models or special appliance bundles available for Costco members. Plus, Costco offers a complimentary two-year warranty for major appliances purchased in-store or online. With that in mind, it's worth checking out the product selection at Costco before you make your next appliance investment.

To give members the latest and greatest options, Costco regularly adds new appliances to its roster. This includes small appliances for floor care, such as steam mops or vacuums, plus large appliances such as refrigerators and ranges. Ahead, we've gathered the essential information you need to know about 15 new appliances to check out at Costco.

The Shark Steam and Scrub All-in-One Mop is a powered floor-cleaning tool. It combines scrubbing action with the power of steam cleaning. The mop head holds a pair of cleaning pads and rotates at speeds up to 150 times per minute, with three power levels to address different levels of mess. Included with the mop are four pads for scrubbing and two for dusting. When a cleaning task is done, the pads are reusable and machine-washable.

This new steam mop from Shark is designed for use on hard, sealed floors. That includes surfaces like marble, tile, stone, laminate, vinyl, and hardwood. For the sake of maneuverability, the mop has swivel steering to navigate around corners and furniture legs. It's also lightweight — weighing less than 7 pounds.

An option for crafting sparkling beverages at home, the SodaStream Duo lands at Costco. This bundle includes a glass bottle and plastic bottle — each holds 1 liter. Both bottles are reusable, dishwasher-safe, and BPA-free. You can use the plastic bottle for taking your fizzy water to go and keep the glass bottle in the fridge with your sparkling water ready to pour. A Quick Connect mechanism is meant to make it easier and faster to insert a new CO2 cylinder for carbonation.

The Sodastream Duo is compact enough to fit under your kitchen cabinets. It's 17.3 inches high, and most cupboards allow for 18 inches of clearance between the base of the cabinet and the counter. Because the Duo relies on a manual carbonation process using a CO2 cylinder, you don't need a nearby electrical outlet or any batteries for this machine to produce sparkling beverages.

Costco brings the Midea 10-in-1 Fully Automatic Espresso Machine into its small appliance lineup. For less than $500, this machine produces espresso at 15 bars of pressure and brews up eight different beverages. It also has a setting for foaming milk or heating water, bringing its total functions to 10. The drink options include not just hot beverages but a cold brew setting as well. The digital control pad is designed for simple, single-touch operation.

The Midea 10-in-1 Fully Automatic Espresso Machine is equipped with a built-in grinder to handle whole bean coffee, but it can also brew using ground coffee. There's a built-in water tank that holds 1.9 quarts of water and a freestanding milk frother.

This 1,250-watt Panasonic microwave is new to Costco's small appliance section. It utilizes Panasonic's cyclonic wave inverter technology, which is intended to distribute waves of energy evenly throughout the microwave. This results in more even cooking results, according to the manufacturer. There's a sensor cook setting, along with auto cook settings for microwave favorites such as popcorn or vegetables.

The 2.2-cubic-foot capacity makes this a large microwave and suitable for families or anyone who reheats large portions of food at once. It easily holds dinner plates and is big enough to accommodate some microwave-safe cookware. In the event of food splatter, this microwave has a stainless-steel finish that is designed to make it easier to wipe away messes.

This freestanding wine cellar holds a large collection of wine bottles — up to 190 of them. The Wine Enthusiast Vinotech Dual Zone Wine Cellar provides adjustable temperature settings for the upper and lower cabinets. You can pick a target temperature ranging from 41 to 68 degrees Fahrenheit. This means you can divide wines with different storage needs, like red wine varieties versus champagne, and adjust the environment to match.

Although this wine cabinet holds a large collection of bottles, the shelves set on rollers will pull out, making it more convenient to access the bottles. LED lighting illuminates the contents of your collection, but the door of the wine cellar is tinted to protect the bottles inside from UV rays. It's worth noting that the door is constructed of dual pane glass to reduce energy loss.

The Frigidaire 4.1 cu. ft. Top Load Washer is a budget-friendly washing machine that costs $599 for Costco members. It has an auto-sensing function to adjust water levels depending on the size of the load. The 4.1-cubic-foot capacity qualifies this as a standard-size washing machine, but it can fit a king-size comforter, according to the manufacturer. The wash basket is made of stainless steel, which is scratch-resistant and corrosion-resistant and considered a long-lasting material for washing machine drums.

There are eight cycle settings for this washer, plus four different soil levels to match the needs of the load. Although it's equipped with AutoSensing for water levels, you can override the selection if you want to control how much water the machine uses. A quick wash cycle cleans a load in less than 40 minutes. If you're looking to buy a laundry pair, Costco also sells a matching dryer — the Frigidaire 7.0 cu. ft. Electric Dryer with SensorDry Technology.

The Frigidaire Gallery 6.2 cu. ft. Induction Range distinguishes itself from other ranges with a special mode for at-home pizza preparation. According to Frigidaire, it's the only kitchen range that reaches temperatures of 750 degrees Fahrenheit. Other standout features of this electric oven include convection cooking, along with functions such as air dry, air sous vide, steam roast, and slow cook. To save you time and effort spent cleaning your oven on a regular basis, a hidden bake element is concealed underneath the oven's flat surface. You also have the option of employing a 30-minute steam cleaning cycle for light messes or a longer 2-, 3-, or 4-hour self-cleaning mode.

This slide-in range has front controls so you don't have to reach across the cooktop as you prepare meals. The cooktop is equipped with five elements that use induction to heat compatible cookware, including the flexibility to create a bridge element for oversized pans. It also has a 3,600-wattage element for rapid boiling.

The Whirlpool Compact Laundry Tower stacks a 2.7-cubic-foot washer on top of a 4.3-cubic-foot electric dryer. This all-in-one laundry center is less than 24 inches wide so it can fit into tight spaces, such as a closet. There's a digital touchscreen that controls the washer and dryer functions. Although the controls are integrated into the upper washer door, the entire unit is only 63.7 inches high, so the control pad is intended to be within easy reach for most users.

It's worth noting that this laundry tower utilizes a ventless dryer. Rather than requiring an external vent, this type of electric dryer uses a heat pump to dry your clothes. In combination with the unit's compact dimensions, the ventless dryer opens up more installation possibilities. To install the Whirlpool Compact Laundry Tower, you only need a 240V electrical outlet, a hot- and cold-water supply and drain. This model is available in a white or a dark gray finish, referred to as titanium metallic.

This Mora 29.1 cu. ft. Side-by-Side Refrigerator is designed to hold big grocery hauls. For fresh food storage, it has 18.6 cubic feet of refrigerator space. There are three tempered glass shelves, two crisper drawers, and four gallon-sized door bins. The 10.5-cubic-foot freezer compartment has an in-door icemaker that produces up to 3 pounds of ice daily. The freezer includes an ice bin with enough room to store up to 5 pounds of ice. A digital control pad lets you change the fridge and freezer settings and also activates modes such as rapid cooling for the fridge or freezer.

This side-by-side refrigerator features a door dispenser for filtered water and ice. The dispenser has enough clearance for glasses, water bottles, or pitchers up to 10 inches in height. The single finish option is a fingerprint-resistant stainless steel. Take note that this model doesn't carry an Energy Star certification.

This French door refrigerator from Midea has 26.3 feet of total storage capacity. The interior space is almost exactly split between fresh and frozen food storage — 13.1 cubic feet for the refrigerator and 13.2 cubic feet of freezer capacity. The shelves are intended to contain spills, with a raised edge around the shelf to keep liquids from running down the inside of the fridge to lower shelves. If a spill does occur, this feature can help reduce the possibility that you'll need to scrub away sticky fridge stains using a few key ingredients. It's a standard-depth refrigerator model, but it has pocket handles to keep the profile to a minimum, rather than handles that extend the depth of the appliance.

For access to filtered water and cubed or crushed ice, there's an external door dispenser. Inside the freezer, there's an ice storage bin that holds up to 6 pounds of ice. As you run through tips for choosing a new refrigerator and consider associated energy costs, you might take into account that this Midea model is Energy Star certified.

The Frigidaire Professional 19 cu. ft. Single-Door Freezer is an upright freezer option for storing frozen meats, vegetables, or treats. To organize your frozen foods, there are three shelves (including two that are adjustable), plus pull-out bins and door bins for keeping smaller items within reach. The interior of the freezer is equipped with LED lighting, which is intended to create more visibility for the items inside. A built-in icemaker produces up to 4.5 pounds of ice each day. The ice is stored in a drawer, which glides out so that you can put a few cubes in your glass or easily fill a cooler.

This Energy Star-certified appliance has a seal that is designed by Frigidaire to keep the contents inside cold for up to two days in the event of a power loss. A unique feature of this model is its auto-closing doors. If a freezer door is left open 5 inches or less, the appliance will automatically close the door. Because this freezer has an internal electronic control panel, there are no visible controls or lights on the exterior panel of the appliance. This gives the freezer a simple, sleek finish. It's available in a stainless-steel finish that is resistant to fingerprints and smudges. This freezer can be paired with the matching Frigidaire Professional 19 cu. ft. Single-Door Refrigerator to handle all your kitchen needs.

This new Whirlpool model adds a counter-depth refrigerator option to Costco's appliance lineup. The 24-inch depth means that it will fit flush against kitchen cabinets. This model is equipped with hinges that allow the refrigerator doors to open to an angle of 135 degrees so that you're not hindered as you try to load or unload items.

The Whirlpool 22 cu. ft. Counter Depth French Door Refrigerator allocates 14.85 cubic feet for refrigerator space and 6.57 cubic feet for frozen food storage in a bottom freezer drawer. The freezer compartment includes two baskets for dividing items and a slot for storing frozen pizzas. In the fridge, a flexible temperature drawer gives you options for storing meats or snacks or wine at the ideal temperature.

This French door refrigerator has a built-in icemaker and an in-door water dispenser. Its dispensing options include a measured fill for hands-free filling of your water bottle or a cup. The dispenser spout is also positioned in such a way that it's easier to fill larger containers, such as pitchers, without spilling water.

Costco is offering the Vitamix Ascent X4 SmartPrep Kitchen System Ultra. This bundle includes Vitamix's Ascent X4 blender and its 48-ounce pitcher along with a slew of accessories, including a 12-cup food processor attachment and blades for slicing or shredding. It also includes a 64-ounce pitcher for whipping up bigger batches of smoothies or soups.

The Vitamix Ascent X4 is equipped with five blending programs for hands-free prep. There's also a self-cleaning program to wash the blender, which can be more convenient than taking apart and deep-cleaning your blender on a daily basis. In addition to the program settings, you can use the variable speed control knob and a pulse feature to manually control the blender's operation. A digital timer provides an at-a-glance view of how much time remains when using the pre-programmed settings. You can also add 15 seconds of blend action with a one-touch button.

This latest iteration of the Panasonic FlashXpress Countertop Toaster Oven has 1,300 watts of heating power and is equipped with a pair of infrared heating elements. This feature is designed to eliminate the need to preheat the toaster oven before cooking. The bottom push-button control panel includes presets for six familiar functions, such as toast or reheat. There's also a dial for manual temperature adjustment from 250 to 500 degrees Fahrenheit.

A pull-out wire rack and baking pan are included. The toaster oven has 0.5-cubic-foot capacity, which is larger enough for about 4 slices of bread or a small pizza with a 9-inch diameter, according to the manufacturer. A removable crumb tray is designed to make it easier to clean up food debris from the bottom of the appliance so that you can keep the inside of your toaster oven sparkling clean.
