Wrong room, Mr Vance
Survivorship bias
My gran had a pantry instead of a fridge. Checkmate technocrats.
Mmmm, day-old liquid ice cream… 🤤

Tell your friends to actually do a bit of research on expensive purchases. I’ve helped three relatives replace their fridges with relatively cheap models and five years in they’re still running
Well don’t tell us which brands or anything.
I bought a Hisense fridge and Hisense washer dryer a little under 5 years ago and they’ve been working flawlessly ever since.
No laundry appliances for the US :(
Maytag Commercial or SpeedQueen for washers. I’ve had zero issues with my Maytag in the 5ish years I’ve had it.
Dryers have way fewer failure points, so anything simple should be fine. You want knobs and physical buttons, for both washers and dryers the electronic components are the first thing to go and they’re expensive to replace.
I mean it changes. Right now I’d look at GE still but I haven’t had to look in a few years. No fridges with ice makers because those are just added complexity that is more likely to fail. Definitely not Samsung.
Tell your friends to stop buying from Samsung
Jokes on you, I bought my fridge from LG.
Unrelated, but does anyone know how to stop my A/C from beeping out morse code adverts for McAfee?
My girlfriend has a Samsung fridge, going strong for around 12 years now. It’s absolutely fine.
All brands are going to have duds and winners, that’s just the way it is.
I know a few people with Samsungs that have had the fridge replaced twice under warranty due to several issues. I don’t think Samsung is a good fridge company.
Samsung appliances are fucking trash. When we bought our house it came with a Samsung washer and dryer. I was constantly repairing the stupid dryer, and the washer coin trap would drain directly into the pedestal anytime I tried to clean it. we sold them a month ago and bought a new set from a different manufacturer.
I have a decades old fridge that literally freezes my veggie drawer every two weeks. I‘m so close to throwing it out.
