    Cafe (spinoff from GE) does a pretty good job with stoves. AFAIK they are still pretty well respected.

    The brands to stay away from at all costs are LG and Samsung.

      The cheapest LG refrigerators that are 2 door freezer on top are pretty well regarded. Their more expensive refrigerators have linear compressors that aren’t a great design to begin with and an even worse design for the refrigerant used in the USA compared to the refrigerant they were designed for in Korea. (As I understand it)

      As I posted a little lower down:

      If the company has ever made a TV or a cell phone I’m not buying their appliance.

      Samsung burned me once….

        Their refrigerators have been a mess. That makes it hard for me to trust their other appliances.
