Buy European: Miele, Rex Electrolux, Beko (Turkish, don't get into that), Smeg, Candy, AEG, etc...
Don't want to jinx it, but my Electrolux washer-dryier is 7 years old and still like new, despite being relatively cheap and despite combined machines being more problematic.
Haier bought it in 2018
My Bosch washing machine is eight years old and works fine.
They make acceptable and pretty toasters and similar appliances, but avoid this brand like a plague for fridges
I have a 7-year old fridge from them, bought discounted at the appliance outlet because of damaged packaging, it's still like new and sips electricity. It's a basic model, brushed stainless, no displays or anything.
Interesting, I heard plenty of horror stories about their fridges being low quality.
It's such an unfortunate name. They really need to rebrand.
I heard the guy who founded the company was a real smeghead
My Euromaid is a decade old. Had to replace a $30 part after 5 years, but no other issues.
Buy European and not cheap
Reddit nitpickers have moved over
Our super cheap Candy (Washer and a drier) has been going for 5 years now without issue 🤷 Though i'd buy a different brand if i had to again and wasn't pressed for money, I am definitely surprised how well it's doing.
I had a very different experience with the brand (washing machine actively trying to kill me, for exemple)
Maybe there's a difference between the different factories making them ?
that could be, or maybe I got lucky. In any case, I'm not complaining. i remember it was like 750 bucks for both machines, and with other brands it would have been 800-1200 for a single machine
