La Ion

La Ion is a Chișinău store for refurbished home appliances: fridges, washing machines, dishwashers, hobs and other large appliances from well-known manufacturers. Stock changes often, so there is usually something new on each visit, and shoppers who come for one appliance frequently leave with a couple more.

The store is at 88 Miorița Street in Telecentru, next to a Linella supermarket. The Statistics square and the Centre of Excellence in Construction are close by.

Customers are highly satisfied overall, but opinions differ. Many praise the friendly sales staff, affordable prices and finding a model they had been searching for. Others complain that appliances sold as new turned out to be used or broke down soon after purchase.

Available models are listed on laion.md. Since these are refurbished appliances, inspect the unit in store before buying, ask about the warranty terms, and call ahead to make sure the model you want is in stock.
