I just bought a new washer and dryer.

The manager at Pacific Sales [biggest in L.A] ... said that Maytag and Whirlpool used to be the best in the USA until everything computerized.

Now LG and Samsung make the best washer and dryers in the US. I bought Candy Apple Red side by side front loaders ..; on pedestals.

They are so cool!

Whirlpool now owns Maytag, and they also make Sears Kenmore. Now they are all crap......................

We too bought LG w & d about 3 years ago. I certainly hope for your sake that they have greatly improved their QA. Same goes for their microwaves and fridge. Each item was retuned to HD. Never again will I own LG...”Lifes Garbage”.

Cool! I’m jealous. I just bought white LG top loaders because I couldn’t justify the extra $400 to get them in red. So, I painted the laundry room walls red. It looks terrific. Warm and welcoming. The room is long and narrow (the whole width of the house) with lots of oak cabinets and white counters. The combination of red walls, new stone floors (grey), oak cabinets and white appliances is terrific.

Enjoy your red machines.

We did the top-load Whirlpool Cabrio, low water usage type washer and dryer. They work great, mostly.

Some complaints. Washing large items like a big quilt...internal “agitator” tends to roll up the quilt in a donut shape! Not sure that hurts the cleaning effort.

Other issue...I’d like the option to run a full tub of water sometimes...which they don’t do.

Not a real issue, but...wash cycles can take a LONG time.

Also...darn expensive.

They are pretty though, and fit nicely in the custom upstairs laundry room I built for the wife (which included a master closet expansion...we didn’t need that extra bedroom anyway).
