Costco is known for being a great place to shop for bulk groceries, household items, rotisserie chickens, low-cost hot dog combo meals, cookies and cakes, and "treasure hunts" with surprising finds. But the biggest discounts at Costco might be found in the appliances section.

That's right: Costco could be America's most underrated appliance store. Costco has shockingly low prices on appliances from refrigerators to stoves, and you can often save even more money by buying online at Costco.com. Right now, you can save up to $1,000 on Costco appliances from leading brands.

Let's look at a few of the biggest discounts on Costco appliances. Keep in mind: The items on this list tend to be more high-end, deluxe versions, so they might not have the lowest prices you'll find at Costco. But these are some of the biggest Costco discounts (in total dollar amount) that we found.

Two more good reasons to buy appliances at Costco

Appliances offer some of the biggest discounts at Costco. But along with the low prices, there are two more good reasons to buy your next fridge, oven, washing machine, or any other appliances at Costco.

1. Costco Direct (extra savings)

Most of the appliances on this list qualify for Costco Direct savings. If you buy two or more items at once with Costco Direct (only on Costco.com), you can get extra savings of $100 or more!

For example, if you buy three Costco Direct items on the same online order, you save $200 -- on top of any other savings or limited time discounts.

In case you need to upgrade your entire kitchen, outfit a new home, or replace multiple appliances at the same time, Costco Direct can help. And you won't have to rack up too big of a balance on your Costco credit card .

2. Costco warranty and tech support

One of the other special benefits of buying appliances at Costco is that you get a built-in extended manufacturer's warranty for up to two years for major appliances. Costco also offers free tech support and a 90-day return policy -- in case something goes wrong with your new appliance, you can feel confident that Costco will make it right and help you solve the issue.

Bottom line

The appliances on this list offer special Costco savings of $650, $750, or $950 each. These are just a few examples of the biggest discounts in the Costco appliance department -- and you can save even more by buying multiple items at once that qualify for Costco Direct.
