Avanti Appliance Repair in Hamilton & Ewing

Based in Florida, Avanti sells compact and apartment-size appliances through online retailers and home centers. Contract manufacturers overseas build the products, which are aimed at dorms, offices, bars and small kitchens. Rather than starting as a full-size kitchen brand, Avanti built its business supplying compact appliances for tight spaces. The Avanti lineup includes compact refrigerators, small beverage and wine coolers, apartment-size ranges, countertop dishwashers and portable laundry. It turns up often in dorm rooms, ADUs, offices, RVs and apartments where full-size appliances won't fit.

A handful of design choices drive most of the repair work: compact and apartment-size refrigerators, 20-inch and 24-inch apartment ranges, thermoelectric and compressor wine coolers, and portable washers and compact dryers. Plenty of small Avanti wine coolers use a thermoelectric module instead of a compressor, which limits them to a fixed number of degrees below the room, so a warm room gives them trouble.
