Default GE

We re-modeled our home in NY 4 years ago and put in GE Profile top line in the entire home.

Four compresser failures and one ice maker on the Fridge.

The last compressor being three days before we closed and $400 later the new owner was happy.

The dishwasher pump failed twice and second time leaked water ,there by ruining the new hardwood floors in the kitchen- TILE in the new home.

Washer motor failed
Dryer motor Failed

I have been told that nothing is good anymore. Two reasons. Off shore China and new EPA energy requirements make the compressors and motors energy efficient but at the same time built so marginal they fail.

I think it would be wise for us to buy the extended warranty.

I did at Lowes on our new MayTags. Made in America so I bought them but who knows where the parts come from.
