We have bought 4 new refrigerators in the last several years and they are all junk. The popular name brands are all made in China and have a life expectancy of 7 years, 7 years ! Our previous house had a Sub Zero fridge when we bought it and it was 25 years old when we replaced it during the remodel. Hindsight would have been to have it repaired and keep it. The GE Profile we replaced it with started having cooling issues at 3 years old.
The Kitchen Aid we bought for our current home, 5 years ago, has failed 3 times in 5 years and Whirlpool, the parent company will do NOTHING to help, not even replace a Known defective user interface panel, control panel to use mortals. It, also, had an issue with not defrosting properly almost from new and it was 13 months old when I came across a repair site that had pics of the cooler side temperature thermistor installed on the hot, high pressure side instead of the cold low side and it failed. This is a known issue also that was done at the FACTORY in China and they still won't stand behind the cost of repair.
Junk Maytag washers, etc, etc.... can you tell I HATE cheap chinesium junk appliances, well, actually, everything that comes from there.
