Appliances

Alright so on second thought, I'm not going to copy paste a wall of words no one is going to read.

Suffice it to say that the problems ranged from: Not enough ice, door falling off, filter clogged in a week, no serviceman in area to repair, leaked, poor layout-unable to store large containers etc....
These comments above were by different people, with the same problem so I feel sure they're valid.

So... I don't feel I should get that product which would match everything else.
I want the samsung fridge, but the samsung dishwashers have bad comments about them as well. BUT!! The samsung might be too big, they say it's a monster.

 

I like matchy. But I guess if it's all stainless and they all work well, that's what matters.

 

As long as the stainless' grain runs in the same direction, I wouldn't worry about brand names. I have mixed and matched appliances in my kitchen and purchased them all new. Do be careful because not all stainless is stainless. Some of it is paint and does chip over time.

 

Hmmm, I didn't know that. Any particular brands that use paint and/or what will it say if it's painted vs. real?

 

Don't know if there is an HH Gregg Store near you but they tend to have multiple lines for each appliance type.

Most of those larger stores do have Black Friday pricing such as Gregg and Circuit City, etc.

 

I dont want a warrantee for a piece of shit. All they are warrenteing me is another piece of the same shit. A store credit to get something else is OK tho.

I like to check ratings, consumer reports for any appliance im gonna have for a few years. Some models have lemony qualities. Its nice to know to avoid a certain brand or model.

As far as matching, i dont give a rats ass. If its all stainless give me the ones that rate the most dependable and serve the functions I need best, screw brand loyalty, that's how the get ya.

 

Dude, you're bitter.

All I'm saying is that any reputable brand will do fine. Kitchen apliances are not space ships and there is not much that can go wrong with them. Pouring through consumer ratings and reviews over a fucking dishwasher is a waste of good time.

 

You can tell by looking, and by the price tag. If it seems too good to be true, it's painted or it's that fake shit.

Real stainless appliances are a pain in the ass to keep clean because fingerprints and every other smudge or smear really show up. You have to clean them with stainless cleaner constantly. We went with all black in this house and I like it better but it depends on your countertops and flooring.

 

I've had a few appliances that are stainless, but I've never noticed the ones that are painted. I'll take note.
I never had much problem cleaning them either, but I think my last fridge was smudgeproof.

The flat cook tops are what I hate cleaning.... FFS. Really. I wish they had never invented those things.

 

Look for a "grain" in the metal. That's stainless. If all you see are dots, it's paint. And expect to pay more for real stainless. And more features too.
