I used SL depreciation for this appliance in other software program in 2017 and want to continue to use it, but Turbo tax doesn't give me that choice.

To enter an asset using straight-line depreciation, use these steps:
- Navigate to the area of your tax return where you want to enter a depreciable asset
- Click Add an Asset
- On the screen titled Describe This Asset, choose Intangibles, Other property then click Continue
- On the screen titled Tell Us a Little More, choose Other asset type then click Continue
- On the next screen, enter the details for the description, cost, and date purchased or acquired then click Continue
- On the next screen, continue adding details regarding the asset and click Continue
- Next, choose the appropriate asset class (class life) and click Continue
- Depending on the date the asset was placed in service, there may be an additional screen asking for more information
- Next, choose the Straight Line depreciation method, then click Continue
- There will be additional questions to review your entries and add more details if needed (such as depreciation taken in prior years)
- Continue going through all screens until you get back to your summary screen showing your complete list of assets
