Does your restaurant need new equipment? This is among the toughest questions that a restaurant owner will need to answer. Furthermore, you need to decide between purchasing used or new equipment. The new equipment available at Newark restaurant supply stores is usually your best option. Here are a couple of reasons you should choose new restaurant equipment rather than used equipment.
Long-Term vs. Short-Term Savings
The decision between used or new equipment is often a decision between long-term or short-term savings. Purchasing used equipment will save you money in the short run, but it will need to be replaced sooner. Fast forward a few years, and you’ll be replacing it yet again. Therefore, in the long run, you have actually spent more money by purchasing used equipment.
Less Maintenance
All of the equipment that you can find at Newark restaurant supply stores will require some degree of maintenance. This is true of all equipment and appliances used in the kitchen. The various pieces will begin to wear down the more the equipment is used. This results in more maintenance over time.
If you purchase used equipment, then those pieces have already seen some use. That means they will require more maintenance and they will require it sooner than new equipment would. Depending on the age and use of the equipment, the maintenance could be costly. Enough so that it negates the short-term savings of purchasing used instead of new.
Fresh Warranties
Buying new equipment from Newark restaurant supply stores means you get new warranties for that equipment. If something happens to your equipment, then you can send it back and have it repaired for free. Most new equipment will have a warranty that protects the product for at least a year. Used equipment, on the other hand, rarely comes with a warranty.
