Great and helpful video. I had a Samsung fridge for about a year. The ice maker died and the controls on the side stopped functioning right after the warranty expired. Now I have a GE Profile and zero problems so far after 2 years.

ALL of my major appliances are Kenmore. Back in the day, if I needed to replace an appliance I would look no further than Sears! I know that Sears/Kenmore didn't manufacture their own appliances. However from my understanding they were made under contract to Sears strict specifications. Case in point:

1. Kenmore built in dishwasher: purchased 12/04/01 (23 years) still works great. In 23 years I had only one issue, I had to replace the the water inlet valve at a cost of $52.61 and it took me about an hour to complete the repair.
2. Kenmore frost free upright freezer: purchased 7/18/05 (19 years) still works great, ZERO issues.
3. Kenmore Bottom freezer refrigerator with internal only ice maker: Purchased 10/17/05 (19 years) still works great, ZERO issues.
4. Kenmore washer and electric dryer pair: Purchased 11/23/07 (17 years) both are still working great. I did have one issue and that was with the dryer, I had to replace the start/signal on-off switch at a cost of $19.70 and it took me about an hour or so to complete the repair.
5. Kenmore glass top range: Purchased 4/21/06, (18 years) no issues as well.

Keep in mind that none of these appliances are the high end top of the line Kenmore Elite models, but they were still built to last. Watching the reviews on this channel of modern appliances that are only expected to last 5 or 6 years (with the exception of Speed Queen) makes me miss Sears and their Kenmore brand even more.

Great info. Thank you!

Bought a LG French door two years ago; it worked great until it didn’t. Stopped cooling and we threw it away. Did not want to lose anymore groceries down the line and have to deal with multiple service visits. Bought a whirlpool, hoping it’s better than the LG.

My Mom has a 1998 KitchenAid Side by Side, with Ice Maker, Water in the door....It has never needed service...and is running like a champ today....26 years. The quality of the build is apparent JUST in the weight of the doors.

I have a 28 year old Frigidaire that just will not die! I've never liked the size since day one. If you want a refrigerator to last buy the one you like the least.

We had a major flood during back to back Hurricanes in August and September 2024 requiring major restoration and appliance replacements.

For the Mother-in-law suite we went with a GE Package, 30" GE Gas (LP) Range, French Door Refrigerator, and Abouve the Range Microwave ( I know, but due to space considerations we vented it outside).

For the main house, we went with GE Café Line in Matte Black. 36-inch Gas Range, 27.9 CF Café French-Door Refrigerator, Café Dishwasher. Should be delivered next week.

As far as the Midea Brand, we had two Midea upright deep freezers in our garage that did a surprisingly good job for 4 years however, they nor anything on the ground floor stood up to the nearly 4-foot flash flood. That water quickly floated them up until they flipped over onto their backs as did the refrigerators.

Thanks for the video. I may give an update on the Café appliances after we have had them for a bit.

I have a whirlpool side by side bought new in Feb 2018. still works...no issues knock on wood. What's weird is when I look at the whirlpool website I'm StIll seeing side x side fridges that look almost identical to the one I have from 2018... I'm like, "wow, they've made no changes at all?" Usually they change them up a lot over the years

[divyangvaidya]

Overall good video, but would like to know which is the best fridge overall. You kinda mentioned them all being bad so would like to know the good ones.

[Djshawkinglegend]

By watching this video, I learned that there is No good refrigerators on the market I guess I'll hang on to my old Frigidaire 🙆🏽‍♂️😂

Just replaced my Samsung french door that was great for 15 years for a larger unit. The old one was still running. I purchased a Samsung Bespoke stainless three door. Absolutely love it. So many great features. Hopefully it's as good as my last Samsung.

[caseydupriest]

Thanks for the video. My husband and are buying a new fridge. I was torn between the GE Profile with ice maker/water in door that you showed and the Samsung Bespoke. I had heard bad things about Samsung in the past but heard the Bespoke has been “different” and I did like the beverage center idea. But I just can’t with their reputation… some people stand by LG’s and love them. But I’ve heard a lot of appliance guys say otherwise. I guess it’s luck. I do like how you explained everything and why those systems fail. It really helped to know the “why.”

But honestly they really don’t make them like they used to.

Based on what you say I’m going with the new bespoken Samsung refrigerator. I had nothing but problems with GE. Water maker stoped working, ice maker stoped working . Freezer stoped getting really cold, fridge was look warm. Issue with fridge door . Unit was only 4 when the first issues started and 6 when I trashed it for the new Samsung bespoke which I’m happy with.

I just ordered a Samsung Bespoke french door fridge. I know I might be taking a risk, but Ben's Appliance just did a detailed video in which he took apart the fridge and found it to be of good quality. In addition, the Bespoke line has been out for 5 years now and there's been no major issues or concerns since the launch.

[lcastillo]

I wish they still have Kenmore refrigerators. Had mine for 30 years and still going strong.

[garypillischafske]

DONT DO IT!..Lowe’s units are not the same that you would get at an appliance dealer. Delivery is abismal as is service. Go to your local appliance dealer who know his stuff and is willing to back up your purchase and deal face to face with you regarding any issue. Big box stores are the worst for appliances.

[channingrhodes]

Your very knowledgeable, I was waiting for you to walk me through a couple of refrigerators you liked. It seems that every refrigerator was bad in your opinion, some worse than others. I would like for you to have shown us some refrigerators you liked at all price points but other than that great video!

My GE refrigarator no ice maker, to avoid trouble, but anyway 2 months later my machine quit working. I bought the waranty cover for 5 years, call them and have to wait 2 weeks for them to send a technician to look at it. I suspect no matter what we buy we buying lemons.

[alfredvalrie]

AI, you really know your stuff. I bought the Whirlpool at 2:06 for my dad back in 2020, and he’s had no issues. An LG came with my house when I bought it nearly 5 years ago, and since this spring, I have to manually reset the ice maker 3x each night at 8:09 with a paper clip to get good ice production all the next day. The SpaceSaver ice maker develops problems, and eventually I’m going to have to unscrew this old one and get a new one shipped out to me.

[markereyna]

My GE Profile went out 3 days after install. Repaired three weeks later and six months later, the ice maker went out. Forward to May 24, ’ a complete shut down. Repaired on June 28, 2024, and it was reading a cool 72 degrees the following morning after repair. All this in a span of 24 months.

[PreparationdobleH]

I work part time at Home Depot, totally agree with you, I would say buy anything, but Samsung and LG.
I’ve seen customers that don’t buy extended warranty come back 6 months later complaining that they call ☎️ LG or Samsung and all they hear is crickets 🦗
