Where can you find a product's serial number?

The location to find the manufacturer's serial number, a unique code assigned for identification of a single unit, can vary by brand and product. The manufacturer's website often contains information on where to find the serial number on a particular product.

For instance, for GE Appliances, at the manufacturer's website at GEAppliances.com, links are provided to individual products where there is a detailed diagram of where to locate the model and serial number of a product.

Hewlett-Packard provides information on where to locate the serial number of certain products such as laptops on the support section of the company's website. This section includes detailed instructions, screenshots and an instructional video.
