Most appliances are made in China hence the poor quality and durability. That's just my opinion.
For what it' worth, we were told that LG and Samsung are both products of South Korea. Not exactly made in the USA, but not China either. We just purchased a new LG washer and dryer to be delivered next week. Hope they live up to the hype.
