Apparently the worst brand is Samsung according to technicians.
I had a samsung that died like 2 months after the warranty expired. Would not recommend.
Thus- the wifi. Update it like Elon and Apple to fail via wireless updates. Fucking rats.
I don't remember if it had wifi, but I do explicitly avoid buying major appliances that have wifi.
Word I got was that Samsung fridges are fine, but anything with moving parts (washing machine/dishwasher etc) is absolute shit.
Had no problems from the Samsung fridge (did NOT get the ice in the door, which was a requirement that drove us towards Samsung in the first place) but did Maytag for the other stuff.
Got an old Magic Chef (Maytag) oven of unknown age because it came with the house. Digital clock, but all of the functions are old fashioned analog dials. Keeps fantastic stable heat, and is bang-on temp wise once I calibrated it according to the manual. Had to replace an element in one of the ovens, but was able to do it myself with a $40 part.
Made in the USA might not mean as much as it once did, but it still means a lot.
Lg is also garbage
I agree its way worse than Samsung.
