Why standard e-commerce
fails appliance buyers

1

Measure your cavity

Enter width, height, depth in millimetres. Optionally add your narrowest doorway for delivery validation.

2

Practical fit math, with manual checks

The default search uses a practical clearance buffer for real-world measurement tolerance. Brand-specific manufacturer figures are shown as advisory notes, not as a hidden hard filter.

3

Check retailer links and running cost

We show verified retailer product links where available, plus estimated energy running cost. Product prices are shown only when we have separately captured price data.

Original appliance fit utility

A measurement tool first, not a scraped price list.

FitAppliance is built around a practical question Australian shoppers ask before ordering: will this appliance physically fit my cavity, doorway and ventilation constraints? The answer is calculated from millimetre dimensions, manual and retailer evidence, and a fail-closed data process that rejects unclear PDF claims instead of filling gaps with guesses.

Product links are a next step after the fit check, not the core content. The site keeps affiliate links, advertising, methodology notes and editorial standards separate so a reviewer can verify what is original utility content and what is monetisation.

Deep buyer guides Five long-form guides cover fridge clearance, dishwasher cavities, dryer ventilation, washing-machine doorway access and general appliance sizing.
Evidence labels Cards distinguish Verified Fit, Dimensions Verified and Retailer Spec so users can see whether clearance was proved or estimated.
Programmatic pages with context Brand, cavity, doorway, product and comparison pages link back to methodology and guide hubs instead of standing alone as doorway pages.
Manual resubmission ready Ownership, ads.txt, contact, privacy, terms, affiliate disclosure and public correction routes are visible from the primary navigation layer.

Affiliate Disclosure

Affiliate relationships are disclosed next to purchase links where they appear. Rankings are based on fit, energy rating, user-selected sorting and verified retailer-link signals, not commission rates.

NCC 2022 Dryer Notice

Under the National Construction Code 2022, vented tumble dryers can no longer exhaust into roof spaces in new builds. If you select "Apartment" as your dwelling type, we automatically filter to condenser and heat-pump dryer models only.

Data Sources

Dimensional and energy data come from Australian Government Energy Rating records and manufacturer/OEM manuals where available. Retailer product links are shown only when verified; prices appear only when separately captured.
