233 listed stores across 79 cities, reviewed September 19, 2026.
We list 233 appliance stores in Ohio, spread across 79 cities. 198 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 Ohio and is the denominator for every share on this page. 99 carry a working website and 233 carry a verified street-level location.
42 of the 233 Ohio listings (18%) 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.
The typical rated listing here carries 118 Google reviews, more than the 70 of the median state. The most-reviewed listing in the state is Big Sandy Superstore in Columbus, at 4,979 reviews.
We have classified what 38 of the 233 Ohio listings sell (16%), from what each store publishes about itself. The chips below the store list break that subset down. The other 195 are listed but not yet classified, and a store missing from a category has not been ruled out of it.
No single Ohio city holds much of the inventory. The largest, Cleveland, accounts for 30 of 233 listings (13%), against a median top-city share of 24% across the 51 state pages. Searching by city matters more here than in states where one metro carries the market.
We have found a founding year for 29 of the 233 Ohio listings, and 28 of those have been trading since before 2000. The earliest is Snow Bros. Appliance in Lyndhurst, which dates itself to 1922. The other 204 listings publish no founding date we could find, so treat this as a floor rather than a count.
We have read the websites of 58 of the 233 Ohio listings and recorded which brands each names. Across that subset the most frequently named are GE (35), Whirlpool (33) and Frigidaire (32). This describes only the 58 crawled sites, not the whole state, and a brand appearing on a store site is not a guarantee of current stock.
86 of the 233 Ohio listings (37%) have a website that answered when we last fetched it, against 49% in the median state. 134 publish no website address at all, so the phone number on each listing is the way to check stock.
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 Ohio 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 Ohio appliance market beyond what these listings show.
198 of 233 listings (85%) are independents. The remaining 35 locations belong to 9 multi-location operators:
| Operator | In Ohio | Nationally |
|---|---|---|
| Mr Appliance | 14 | 81 |
| Ollie's Bargain Outlet | 5 | 114 |
| Abc Warehouse | 4 | 26 |
| Big Sandy Superstore | 4 | 5 |
| American Freight Furniture & Mattress | 3 | 21 |
| Appliance Factory | 2 | 9 |
| ABC Warehouse | 1 | 5 |
| Appliance Connection | 1 | 6 |
| Appliances 4 Less | 1 | 23 |
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 233 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.
