Huge Black Friday sales on large appliances

Forget those silly doorbusters, Home Depot, Lowe's, and Sears are having some serious sales this weekend that can make it worth braving the crowds. All three retailers are featuring significant sales on some of Consumer Reports' top-rated large appliances. With discounts of up to 40 percent you can save thousands on a refrigerator, range, washing machine, or other large appliance that has aced our tests. Here are some of the great deals we found on their websites. Prices are from the retailers and are rounded to the nearest $5. Keep in mind that availability may vary from store to store.

Home Depot is offering 25 to 40 percent off select appliances, which include some of our top-performing refrigerators, ranges, and washing machines. In addition, the retailer is offering graduated discounts when you buy two or more appliances starting at $50 for two items and $450 if you buy six. Here are some of our top picks.
