[QUOTE="Meech17, post: 9493508, member: 7044459"] For a brief period of time I worked at BestBuy. An LG rep told me that Samsung washers/dryers were garbage and prone to breaking due to their drums being belt driven, rather than the plainly superior direct drive technology of the LGs. I took that with a large pinch of salt but it's something I remembered for some reason. The apartment unit I'm currently living in was freshly remodeled prior to us moving in, and it has a brand new GE washer/dryer set. We've been here 19 months and the washer is starting to sound like it needs to be taken out back and given the Old Yeller treatment. This has been our strategy as well. It's just two of us, and cooking for two is kind of challenging.
