46 listed stores across 12 cities, reviewed September 19, 2026.
We list 46 appliance stores in Idaho, spread across 12 cities. 39 of them (85%) trade under a name we see nowhere else at scale, which is our working definition of an independent. Every listing is checked against Google Business Profile data; this page was last rebuilt from the database on September 19, 2026.
Counted from our own database on September 19, 2026. “Listed stores” is every active listing in Idaho and is the denominator for every share on this page. 26 carry a working website and 46 carry a verified street-level location.
The typical rated listing here carries 175 Google reviews, more than the 70 of the median state. The most-reviewed listing in the state is RC Willey in Meridian, at 15,808 reviews.
7 of the 46 Idaho listings (15%) carry 500 or more Google reviews. A review count that size takes years to accumulate, so those are the storefronts with the longest public track record in the state, whatever their founding date says.
We have classified what 5 of the 46 Idaho listings sell (11%), from what each store publishes about itself. The chips below the store list break that subset down. The other 41 are listed but not yet classified, and a store missing from a category has not been ruled out of it.
We have found a founding year for 7 of the 46 Idaho listings, and 6 of those have been trading since before 2000. The earliest is Wilson-Bates Appliance & Furniture SuperStore - Twin Falls, ID in Twin Falls, which dates itself to 1935. The other 39 listings publish no founding date we could find, so treat this as a floor rather than a count.
We have read the websites of 16 of the 46 Idaho listings and recorded which brands each names. Across that subset the most frequently named are GE (9), LG (8) and GE Profile (7). This describes only the 16 crawled sites, not the whole state, and a brand appearing on a store site is not a guarantee of current stock.
The median Google rating across the 46 rated Idaho listings is 4.7, against 4.5 for the median state. Every state median falls between 4.2 and 4.7, so a 0.2-star gap is a small difference rather than a large one. Individual stores range much wider than that.
Method. Each paragraph above is computed from this database when the page is requested, not written by hand, and every figure in it can be re-derived from the listings on this page. Where a paragraph compares Idaho against a national figure, that figure is the median across all 51 state pages rather than a pooled national total, which three large states would otherwise dominate. Nothing is claimed about the Idaho appliance market beyond what these listings show.
39 of 46 listings (85%) are independents. The remaining 7 locations belong to 5 multi-location operators:
| Operator | In Idaho | Nationally |
|---|---|---|
| Ferguson Home | 2 | 64 |
| Mr Appliance | 2 | 81 |
| A-1 Appliance | 1 | 6 |
| Fred's Appliance | 1 | 7 |
| RC Willey | 1 | 7 |
Method. We hold no ownership records, so an operator counts as a chain when the same store name appears 5 or more times across our national database. That groups by name, so a chain trading under several names is undercounted and two unrelated stores sharing a common name are overcounted. It is a proxy, and we would rather publish it with its limits stated than not publish it.
12 of 46 listings, ranked by Google rating weighted by review count so a single five-star review does not outrank a long track record. Stores with no rating on file sort last.
