floor models
Showroom demonstration units
Floor models are display items in retail stores, typically furniture or appliances, used for customers to examine before purchase.
Because they've been handled, sat on, or demonstrated, floor models sell at a discount when the store clears inventory: We got the washer cheap because it was a floor model.
The term implies minor wear but full functionality.
