Appliance Model Number Lookup — Identify Any Appliance by Model Number
Enter a model number to identify the brand, appliance type, product title, and specifications. Works for all major brands.
Enter an appliance model number to identify the brand, product type, title, and specifications. Each manufacturer uses a different format — ApplianceAPI normalizes all of them automatically, stripping suffixes, correcting casing, and identifying the brand and product type.

Automatically identify the manufacturer from a model number. Handles brand aliases and sub-brands.
Appliance Type

Model Normalization
Strips suffixes, corrects casing, and handles formatting noise. WRS325SDHZ/04 becomes WRS325SDHZ.
Where to Find Your Model Number
- Refrigerators — Inside the fresh food compartment, on the left wall or ceiling
- Washers — Under the lid (top-load) or around the door frame (front-load)
- Dishwashers — On the door edge or inside the tub wall
- Ovens & Ranges — Behind the storage drawer or on the door frame
- Dryers — Inside the door or on the back panel
Model Number Formats by Brand
Each appliance manufacturer uses a different model number format. The first characters typically encode the brand, product type, and series — but the conventions differ across manufacturers.
ApplianceAPI normalizes model numbers automatically. It strips suffixes, corrects casing, handles revision codes, and identifies the brand and product type from the model number pattern. You provide the model number — we handle the rest.
