And LG is the potential buyer for the GE appliance sector.

Just got a new "GE".

Model GSH22JFTE BB.

It was about $1k at Home Depot. Filtered water and ice in the door. It keeps up.
Fantastic.

Had a GE and it was a POS. Ice dispense mechanics died and I repaired them. I was shocked how incredibly cheap this machine was put together. It quit cooling well (after about 4 years of ownership) and we tossed it. I have had poor luck with GE appliances overall and will not buy them any more.

Went to Costco for a Samsung. Very nice machine. Had it for 1.5 years without issues. Much better build quality and design than anything else out there in the $1k price range. Plenty of ice and a very nice dispense mechanism.

I'm sure alot of them have no problems. But I just know my buddy says he gets an extremely high amount of repairs on them compared to the "cheaper brands".

Hes the one that talked me out of buying one. basically said "If you want a status symbol buy one. If you want a reliable appliance stay away".
He also warned me about the $2000 Fridgidare we bought, but the wife liked it and insisted on it. Sure enough the problems we had with it 5 months after buying it where exactly what he said. ( defrost timer and water filter housing, and icemaker electronic board).

I had my grandparent's 50 yo GE fridge in the garage for beer. That thing still cranked out he cold like it was brand new.:D
