if it is everything then you will come out much cheaper buying in the us.
there are stores in Miami that actually provide all the paperwork for you because they accustomed dealing with Trinidadians .
talk to La parkans and compare your prices online with Trinidad

I have bought most of my house stuff from Fens. Fridge and freezer going on 10 years no issues
tvStill working. Beds still good
The price in the showroom is not the final price they give you a much better price.
The only downside is they have different prices for credit card vs cash /linx. on the final price
so you save even more on linx cash purchases.

Have to agree with the others on Fen's in Marabella. Good quality and service. We've bought virtually all our furniture and appliances there over the past 20 years.

Courts not bad, but their service takes long. CTC has a good service department but I only bought sharp televisions there... Had a pedal break off my orbitrex and they replaced it under warranty, so I guess they are good to their word.

New fridges with hidden coils conking out fast. The old fashioned ones with the whole back as cooling fins is the real flick.

all appliances have good and bad models which change almost every year.
you should check the reviews on the models you see where you plan to buy to see
if there are known lemons.

This is particularly important with dishwashers and refridgerators.
We have been through 2 dishwashers which were both badly reviewed universally by thousands.
Hopefully the one which coming next will live up to its reputation.
