How do brand & quality tier change the parts cost?
Brand and tier adjust the parts portion only — never labour. Fisher & Paykel is the New Zealand baseline with the widest, cheapest parts network; value brands (Haier, Simpson) sit below it, and premium and luxury lines (Bosch, Smeg, Asko, Miele) carry pricier, often OEM-restricted components. Pick a tier in the calculator for a class-typical estimate, or a specific New Zealand brand to override it.
| Brand | Parts factor | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Basic tier parts ×0.9 | ||
| Haier | ×0.9 | Parts ×0.9 (Chinese-owned value brand and the parent of Fisher & Paykel; built to lower specifications than F&P but sharing supply chains, with a full NZ parts channel plus third-party distributors that keep spares readily available below the mainstream baseline) |
| Simpson | ×0.9 | Parts ×0.9 (long-standing value laundry/cooking brand owned by Electrolux; near-identical to its Westinghouse counterparts and sharing components, so everyday spares are cheap and widely stocked across the Electrolux-family NZ parts network) |
| Omega | ×0.9 | Parts ×0.9 (value NZ-market kitchen brand (cooktops, ovens, dishwashers) whose components are shared with other Euro-style budget cooking brands; e.g. a common simmerstat fits Omega/Smeg/Blanco/Euro units, so cooking spares are inexpensive and broadly available below the mainstream baseline) |
| Kelvinator | ×0.9 | Parts ×0.9 (tier median (NZ parts pricing not separately sourced) — Electrolux value refrigeration brand sold in NZ that shares fridge/freezer parts with Westinghouse and Electrolux, priced at the value-tier centre) |
| Parmco | ×0.9 | Parts ×0.9 (tier median (NZ parts pricing not separately sourced) — NZ-market kitchen-appliance brand (ovens, cooktops, dishwashers, rangehoods) positioned at the value-tier centre with locally stocked spares) |
| Beko | ×0.85 | Parts ×0.85 (tier median (NZ parts pricing not separately sourced) — Turkish budget brand and one of the largest global white-goods makers, sold in NZ; heavy generic-parts availability places it at the bottom of the value-tier price ladder) |
| Hisense | ×0.85 | Parts ×0.85 (tier median (NZ parts pricing not separately sourced) — fast-growing Chinese budget brand widely sold in NZ (whiteware and TVs); low entry pricing keeps spares at the value-tier floor) |
| Mid-range tier parts ×1 | ||
| Fisher & Paykel | ×1 | Baseline — no parts adjustment |
| Westinghouse | ×1 | Baseline — no parts adjustment |
| Whirlpool | ×1 | Baseline — no parts adjustment |
| Panasonic | ×1.05 | Parts ×1.05 (Japanese OEM (microwaves, some laundry and refrigeration) with genuine parts stocked through NZ distributors, but proprietary components and a smaller NZ installed base than F&P or Westinghouse nudge parts slightly above the mainstream baseline) |
| Premium tier parts ×1.2 | ||
| Samsung | ×1.15 | Parts ×1.15 (proprietary Korean OEM parts with poor long-term cross-model compatibility, routed through authorised NZ channels; commodity items (seals, dispensers) are cheap but control boards and major assemblies are pricey, nudging parts above the mainstream baseline) |
| LG | ×1.15 | Parts ×1.15 (proprietary Korean OEM parts with limited third-party equivalents and frequent model-to-model changes; distributed in NZ through an authorised spare-parts channel, above the domestic budget brands) |
| Electrolux | ×1.15 | Parts ×1.15 (the premium parent line above Westinghouse/Simpson/Kelvinator; genuine proprietary components are dearer than the value-tier family brands, lifting parts above the mainstream baseline while remaining stocked by NZ retailers) |
| Bosch | ×1.2 | Parts ×1.2 (European BSH-group OEM; German-engineered genuine components source from overseas with limited aftermarket competition in NZ, pricing above the mainstream baseline in line with the US/UK/AU taxonomy's European-OEM premium) |
| Smeg | ×1.2 | Parts ×1.2 (premium Italian brand; genuine spares flow through a limited NZ importer/distributor channel, restricting price competition and holding parts above mainstream (shared Euro-import cooking components such as a $44.90 +GST simmerstat sit above the F&P equivalent)) |
| Asko | ×1.25 | Parts ×1.25 (tier median (NZ parts pricing not separately sourced) — premium Scandinavian brand distributed in NZ through a limited importer channel; premium European dishwasher/laundry components sit near the top of the premium band alongside Bosch/Smeg) |
| Neff | ×1.2 | Parts ×1.2 (tier median (NZ parts pricing not separately sourced) — premium BSH built-in kitchen brand sharing the Bosch-group parts platform; German OEM components carry premium pricing with many model-specific variants) |
| Luxury tier parts ×1.45 | ||
| Miele | ×1.45 | Parts ×1.45 (German luxury OEM and the most expensive class to repair in NZ; appliances need Miele's own proprietary tooling and genuine spares are largely Europe-sourced through a restricted NZ channel, placing parts at the top of the range) |

Is it worth repairing a range / stove / oven?
If the repair quote exceeds roughly half the price of a comparable new range / stove / oven — or the unit is well past its typical service life — replacement is often the better value. Localize the repair range above first, then compare.
Prices are region-level estimates based on labour-cost data, not fake city precision. See the methodology for the localization method and named sources.
