The months on this calendar are ranked by how deep appliance promo codes actually run — the share of codes SimplyCodes verified in each month that took 25% off or deeper, pooled across every year on record and re-measured daily. It spans the whole aisle — refrigerators, washers and dryers, ranges and the countertop machines — and reads code depth rather than appliance prices.

Methodology
How SimplyCodes verifies codes. Behind every figure in this live data study is the SimplyCodes verification system. Coupon codes are tested at real checkout before they are listed, through three independent layers: daily automated testing, where headless browsers runs headless browsers through real checkout flows and records whether a discount actually applies. A human verification network of 10,000+ verifiers submits screenshot-and-timestamp proof. And a real-time fleet signal, where live checkout outcomes feed back into the engine. The calendar below summarizes that verification history month by month.
How this calendar is built. we group every kitchen and laundry appliances promo code SimplyCodes has checked at the appliance brands and retailers SimplyCodes tracks by the calendar month it was verified in — so "December" means every December on record, not one year's. For each month we report the share of those codes that carried a discount of 25% off or deeper, alongside the number of codes behind the share. Only percentage-off codes are counted, because fixed-amount offers are not comparable across price points. Percentage claims of 95% or more are excluded as implausible. And a month contributed by fewer than 3 retailers publishes no share at all

Frequently asked questions
When are appliances cheapest?
The calendar above ranks all twelve months by the share of verified appliance codes running 25% off or deeper, and stamps the date the snapshot was taken. Cheapest is a price claim this study does not make: it names the months when appliance codes run deepest across the brands and sellers SimplyCodes tracks, which is the part of appliance discounting that a code can carry. That set includes KitchenAid, Frigidaire, Breville, Cuisinart, De'Longhi, Bosch, Miele, Speed Queen, Calphalon, Hamilton Beach, Forno Appliances and Appliance Warehouse, among others.
When is the best time to buy a refrigerator?
Refrigerator sellers sit inside the set this calendar measures, so the month ranking above covers them along with the rest of the appliance aisle. Read it with one caveat specific to big-ticket appliances: much of a refrigerator's discount arrives as floor-model clearance, a delivery-and-haul-away bundle or a manufacturer rebate, none of which run through a promo code.
Does the new model year change when appliances go on sale?
It changes what gets discounted more than it changes the code climate. Model-year turnover moves last year's units to clearance at each manufacturer's own pace, and that markdown usually appears as a lower shelf price. The code window this calendar tracks is market-wide and repeats by season, which is why it is worth reading alongside the clearance you find on the floor rather than instead of it.
Does a deep appliance discount mean the code will work at checkout?
They are separate questions. Depth is how much a code takes off, and reliability is whether it still applies at checkout — the Health Score (SimplyCodes' 0–100 measure of how likely a code is to work at checkout) on each code covers the second one. This calendar reads depth only, and each brand's own SimplyCodes page carries its current working codes.
