Buying used appliances is fine idea assuming of course they are in good shape, and assuming of course that the savings is signifigant. Remember, no warranty will transfer with the purchase, so any repairs will be fully on your tab. Of course, if the appliance is used, it may have out lived it's warranty already. But it's an important point to keep in mind because repairs can be expensive, especially in high end appliances.
Sub Zeros are great - they recently had a major re-deign, so virtually all their refrigerators can achieve the fully inegrated look that made them famous. Previously there was a distiction between a paneled, cool 'Built-In look' and the totally dissappearing WAY cool 'fully integrated' look that had only been possible in their smaller 700 series. Now their whole line can copletely disappear behind cabinetry.
Of course they are expensive, and like all appliances, they can have issues. On the other hand, they stand firmly behind their product, and being a market leader, they have a very wide network of local technicians who are familiar with the product, so getting issues resolved is never that difficult.
