As a builder and consumer, I’ve dealt mainly with Whirlpool and GE. I’m amazed at the number of failures right up out of the box or shortly after folks moving in. Ovens, microwaves, dishwashers, etc. everything. It seems like they don’t even last for their planned obsolescence.
Just a couple weeks ago, a homeowner moved in a brand new house with brand new GE appliances and the refrigerator stopped working in a day or two. Because it was a brand new house, I ordered a replacement refrigerator locally and had it delivered in two days. GE came out to fix the old one, and it was going to take two weeks to get a new compressor to fix the old one. I told the homeowner, let’s install the new one, take the old one downstairs to the garage and have GE fix it. Now she has two refrigerators.
