How can I buy a UK appliance and have it shipped to the US?

My wife and I are trying to purchase a Candy washing machine. We can't seem to find an easy-ish way to purchase and deliver to us here in the USA. Does anyone know of a British importer, /exporter, or freight forwarder, or LCL service?

Candy is a brand that seems to be dominant in the UK with overseas distributors in lots of places, but none in the US.

Today we got a quote for £500 to ship but we were told needed an EORI number.

—-An Economic Operators Registration and Identification number (EORI number) is a European Union registration and identification number for businesses which undertake the import or export of goods into or out of the EU—-

We are hoping to find a middleman for this who might have an EORI or otherwise streamline the process for us.

I wish we could just give up on Candy, but they have a specific model that is the only washer that fits the space we are planning to put it.
