used appliances
Previously owned equipment
Used appliances are household machines—refrigerators, washers, dryers, stoves—that have had previous owners.
The term appears in classified ads, thrift stores, and appliance resellers: We furnished the apartment with used appliances.
The phrase implies functional but not new, often at significant savings.
