Our Story
The Early Years
"When we went on service calls in the old days," explains partner Karl Thimm, "customers often asked our opinions about major appliance purchases. In 1970, when the company started, we supplied appliance parts. More and more customers from Northern Westchester County, Dutchess County, and Putnam County came to us for advice before purchasing major appliances. For over twenty years, we built both an excellent reputation and a large base of satisfied customers.""We came to realize that the selling and servicing of major appliances would work hand in hand," adds Losito. "Our customers' trust became the stepping stone into a whole new business concept".
With their comprehensive product knowledge of kitchen and laundry appliances combined with their long history of professional service, Appliance Sales Plus was born. The partners began selling new, major appliances in 1979. Their business grew dramatically because of their well earned credibility with a large, established core of satisfied customers and the added plus of their experienced service department, thus their new name: Appliance Sales Plus. They achieved their pricing goal by joining the largest group of appliance buyers in the Northeastern United States..italic
