as an appliance salesperson at a well-known home-improvement retailer, i do just about whatever i can to stop people from buying Samsung appliances. They're garbage. They overstuff their appliances with way too much unnecessary tech that nobody wants, and in order to keep the costs from being astronomical, they cut on build quality. Countless customers come in to replace Samsung appliances that failed far before their expected lifespan, often breaking within the first few years.

you want reliable? go with LG or GE. Whirlpool is also pretty decent.

European here, I suggest Bosch or Electrolux, if that's available in your part of the world.

Oh my God Bosch does good on their motors. Annoyingly one of those you pay for what you get companies.

oh, i also suggest Electrolux. they're great. i especially like to offer their laundry machines as an alternative to the more complicated LGs. electrolux machines are very simple, and they have great warranties.

Bosch is overpriced. nice, but far too expensive here.

Yeah, why would you buy kitchen appliances from a Smartphone/TV vendor?
