GE Produces garbage products.
I've had nothing but nightmare problems with my Samsung washer. They keep replacing parts that go bad with parts that go bad. After 11 repairs(no cost to me) they still won't replace my washer. I probably get 13-18 cycles before the same parts go bad
@qyk true
@ OP - we made a mistake cause we allowed the Chinese to use our brand to peddle trash products
The Chinese own the rights to the GE brand for 40 years from the date the sale of GE Appliances happened.
@wyw When the monogram is on the product, it does not matter to the customer that it's not the current GE Company that manufactured the product that failed them. GE (in whatever form it continues to exist in) ultimately owns responsibility for the poor quality being produced and marketed in its name. Licensing your brand to others and giving up control over how it is used is a quick way to destroy its value. The GE brand was once valued at over $50B (2014). Now, as of 2018, it is only valued at $32B, and has fallen over that period from #6 to #34 in the brand value rankings by Brand Finance.
Speed Queen and only Speed Queen - that's the way to go...
Don't buy anything else.
Have a 25 year old washer dryer set - works like aa charm
Never had issues
Note that GE sold the appliance business in June 2016 to Haier, so GE no longer makes appliances. We bought an entire set of GE kitchen appliances just before the sale to Haier while we still got an employee discount and they have been fine so far.
This customer's issue is really with Haier, not GE.
I have old and I mean old GE appliances ..in the basement for secondary items, beer, frozen food. They run like a swiss clock! Go figure. When Jack W. took over GE he f---ed that division up royally. And it never recovered ..but Six Sigma guided them well. As of late , 1980's I would never touch a single GE appliance. It was funny , GE executives were required have the company appliances in their house. They always complained about sh_tty reliability of even the high end product lines. What does that say for the normal product line offered to standard public GQ?
The only thing GE makes that doesn't s--- is their vacuum cleaners.
