HONESTY. EXCELLENCE. ACCOUNTABILITY. VALUE. 

WELCOME TO UNIVERSAL APPLIANCE AND KITCHEN CENTER

It’s more than just the price. It’s about the people. The knowledge. The follow up. It’s about the creation of a truly IMMERSIVE experience like no other.

In today’s marketplace, appliances have become a pure commodity. Generally, all the major retailers and large appliance stores will offer competitive prices, but they must adhere to stringent pricing standards set by appliance manufacturers, known as UMRP "Unilateral Minimum Retail Price.” This means appliance stores offering the best possible prices is typically a given.  What is not is the selection at the showroom. The customer experience. The follow through. The installation. Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center aims to differentiate itself by providing the largest brand selection in Southern California, and the creation of a unique immersive shopping experience. 

As more than simply an appliance outlet, or even a premier retailer of the best brands in home and kitchen appliances, outdoor grills and decorative plumbing fixtures, Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center is a purveyor of LIFESTYLE Solutions.
Explore and discover here, and in one of our appliance center locations, why we say it’s about delivering a WOW experience EVERY TIME.

Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center and Lake Balboa, CA

Lake Balboa is in the San Fernando Valley Region of Los Angeles. The official recognition of the community of Lake Balboa was highly debated. The city of Los Angeles adopted a formal naming process for the community in 2006, which had other implications for many other communities in Los Angeles created prior to January 2006.

According to the 2000 U.S census there are 24,328 residents in the Lake Balboa neighborhood. This equates to 7,754 people for each of the square miles in the 3.13 square mile area.

Lake Balboa is also home to the Anthony C. Beilenson Park. This 80 acre recreation facility has a centerpiece of the 27 acre Lake Balboa. The park has a cascade, play areas, barbecue pits, bike paths, jogging paths and a fishing lake. There is also a Japanese Garden, Woodley Park and the Sepulveda Dam Recreation Area in the Lake Balboa area.
