Most GE is good for my money. Fancy can mean 2 things: spendy and trendy, or crap as in the case of Fisher and Paykel. I know what I'm talking about or I wouldn't have bothered.
GE is made by Whirlpool...stay with the tried and true...simplicity of function is best..less to go wrong...low to mid-line for a rental or for any application for that matter. high line multi function is a waste cause you ain't gona use all the bells and whistles..

long life low maintenance is what you are after..

I recently had to replace my GE dishwasher after 19 years....went with a SS Maytag at Home Depot for 650.. 10 year warranty on the motor. I wish it had analog controls instead of digital..everything is fkin digital now.. I do like the machine..

Washing machines..find a good used DIRECT DRIVE made by Whirlpool under various brand names... the new washers crap out after a couple of years...and they don't clean as well. Per a washing machine repair man..

My suggestion is to pick the brain of a guy who repairs these appliances. he can tell you what is problematic and what is not.
