Crutchfield Scraper

Crutchfield (crutchfield.com) is a US electronics retailer for car audio, home audio, speakers, receivers, and accessories. This actor collects product data from Crutchfield listing pages and product detail pages.

Introduction

The Crutchfield scraper starts from listing/search URLs or detail URLs, crawls listing pages, opens product detail pages, and extracts structured product data such as name, description, brand, SKU, ratings, offers, pricing, and shipping details.

Use Cases

• Market research: Track product assortment, prices, and ratings by category.
• Lead generation: Collect structured product data for sales, enrichment, or catalog pipelines.
• Monitoring: Watch product availability and pricing changes over time.
• Analytics pipelines: Feed BI tools, dashboards, and internal warehousing.

Input

Provide the following fields:

• startUrls (array, required): Crutchfield listing/search or detail URLs.
• maxItems (integer, required): Maximum number of detail products to extract per start URL.
• proxyConfiguration (object, optional): Apify proxy settings.

Notes:

• If a startUrl is a detail URL, the actor extracts that detail directly.
• Crawling stops per source URL when maxItems is reached.

Input Examples

1) Start URLs

{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.crutchfield.com/g_300/Car-Stereos.html"
    },
    {
      "url": "https://www.crutchfield.com/p_104BE7ACP/BOSS-Audio-BE7ACP.html"
    }
  ],
  "maxItems": 10,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true
  }
}

Output

Each dataset item contains fields like:

{
  "url": "https://www.crutchfield.com/p_104BE7ACP/BOSS-Audio-BE7ACP.html",
  "name": "BOSS Audio BE7ACP",
  "description": "Digital multimedia receiver (does not play discs)",
  "category": "Digital Multimedia Video Receivers",
  "sku": "104BE7ACP",
  "mpn": "BE7ACP",
  "gtin": "791489128940",
  "reviewCount": 1056,
  "ratingValue": 4.5,
  "bestRating": 5,
  "worstRating": 1,
  "brand": "BOSS Audio",
  "offers": [
    {
      "price": 189.99,
      "priceCurrency": "USD",
      "sellerName": "Crutchfield"
    }
  ]
}

The scraper paginates through listing results and stops when maxItems is reached per start URL or when no more result links are found.
