We’ve had excellent experience in sales, installation, and service from MVB on several appliances

Best Buy isn’t the least expensive!

Most of the responses in this thread involve Big Box store brands, which are NOT made like machines used to be made.
Do your homework. Ask a repair person their opinion. Most will say the only really well made machine that actually uses enough water and really cleans clothes is a Speed Queen. They are more expensive, have a 7 year warranty(what does that tell you) but really clean your clothes.

Hi - I went with Samsung, as it was on a Black Friday special - paid cash.

Michael 61 12-19-2022 09:29 AM

And I know the horror stories about Samsung - but talked to others who have had no problems - I guess I’ll just keep my fingers crossed!

Remember front loaders are deeper than top loaders so depending on your situation if you’re putting them into a closet, the front loaders might not work

I just bought a new gas dryer from Costco. It was on sale whirlpool 400 bucks great deal but I did the install it myself.

Sonny's Discount Appliances in Altamonte Springs gave me the best discount and price for buying eight appliances. GE profile for kitchen and LG for laundry. My GE fridge had trouble, and the Friday GE stood me up for the second time for service I called Andrew from Sonny's and on Monday he delivered me a brand new replacement refrigerator. Family run business.
Shop Kitchen & Home Appliances

I agree with poster about Samsung...horrible.

Not sure where Speed Queen's are sold near here but they are made for laundry mats and are heavy duty. Not a lot of extras but their warranty is best around. Had Samsung, neither Washer or dryer lasted 5 years. Have SQ now and will never have another brand! Made in Wisconsin I believe.

We went to Desantis Appliance in Wildwood to purchase Speed Queen because they are completely made in the US. They do lack bells and whistles but have been very durable and reliable machines. They are the same machines as the ones in commercial laundromats just without the coin slot.

Avoid Kenmore appliances and stick with LG or Samsung.

Best Buy was a disaster for my friend. 4 trips for wrong and damaged appliance and bad installation.

nancyre 12-19-2022 10:00 AM

Avoid Ken & Kerries !!!
