    Oh definitely, I wouldn’t touch Maytag washing machines. I have a Maytag dishwasher (replaced KA, which I fixed 3 small mechanical issues) because it was on a particularly good sale, Whirlpool refrigerator (replaced an LG fridge with faulty compressor), and an LG washing machine (fixed a faulty relay). Appliances in general seem pretty unreliable these days, and there’s isn’t a brand that’s consistent across the board. My take:

    • refrigerator - Whirlpool or Maytag for side-by-side, Bosch or GE for french door; Frigidaire only for smaller or simpler models
    • dishwasher - Bosch or KitchenAid (higher end), Maytag (I have one that’s essentially a rebadged KA) or Whirlpool (mid-tier) w/ metal tub
    • laundry - Speed Queen ($$$$; go for old school), anything with a decent warranty, LG

    In general, avoid Samsung for all three, and Bosch is a good higher-end brand.
