Who paid off their debts? Me and you. No thanks, Sears.

There was an ‘Eddie Lambert(sic) of ESL Holdings’ on Epstein’s pedo island plane manifest...

Just sayin’...

Sounds like they are going for items too large to be easily ordered online, shipped to the home and would benefit from professional installation. It’s a smart move. I buy all my major appliances at Best Buy.

I bought a whole package from Samsung, through Best Buy.
Washer (which had to be upgraded), dryer, dishwasher (which had to have a circuit board replaced), range/microwave, refrigerator/freezer (which required a service all but they had no one in North Florida). I still like Best Buy, but will never buy Samsung again.

We bought LG everything and haven’t had any trouble at all from any of them.

LG and Samsung are both Korean companies. We have a Samsung HDTV 65” that we have had for about three years and no problems.

Our first microwave we ever bought back in the early 80’s was a Samsung and it worked for years and years and still worked when we gave it away, it was huge!....................

Samsung is great for electronics.

Samsung appliances are as bad as their electronics are good.

Had purchased a Samsung refrigerator and had problems with the ice maker from the beginning. Filed a warranty claim prior to the end of the one year warranty. They didn’t get back to me until just after the warranty period. I convinced them that it was their problem.

They sent out repair guys twice, and replaced the ice bucket. Problem didn’t go away. I worked my way up the food chain with no agreement to refund our money.

At that point, I informed the person that was at the top of the food chain in customer service to either send us a full refund over night, or I would sue them, and would mound not need an attorney; ask for a jury trial, ask for consumer fraud damages, and that discovery would be a lot of fun. Told this person that they would be paying an outside law firm at least $10,000 just to show up for a case they were sure to lose.

Had the email confirming that the check woul be over-nighted the next day; and it was.
