Also skip any German, Korean, and Chinese brands. GE appliances is now owned by the Chinese.

The good names are Speed Queen and Electrolux brands ( Frigidaire, Tappan, Kelvinator and Gibson).

I do have an original Maytag washer/dryer that is over 20 years old. In another house. And that works perfectly still. Never any problems. Never any repairs. But Whirlpool bought Maytag, closed the original Maytag facctory. And rebranded a Whirlpool and called it Maytag. Junk.
Electrolux and LG have been the worst that we have owned. Our Electrolux set was fixed countless times and still sucked. Earlier this year our LG washer grenaded and wasn't cost effective to repair. We have 3 laundry rooms in our house, 2 are new GE and one is Whirlpool. We have the same Whirlpool at the island as well. So far so good on all. I would not buy any major appliances these days without an extended warranty. You can bet on it that they will croak within the warranty period.
