I definitely agree about appliances. I still have two of the last "Newton" models of Maytag washer and dryer. The Newton models were built in Newton, Iowa. I can easily repair them, but fortunately haven't had to do so very often. They are approaching 30 years in age.
I also own a 2009 model Whirlpool refrigerator. The manual in bold print mentioned that this model would make more, different noises than my old refrigerator. After owning it 6 years, it quit cooling. The problem was the discharge line from the compressor that was routed in the condensate tray. The line corroded and sprang a leak. Since I do all of the AC work on my vintage cars, I had the equipment needed to splice the line and recharge the refrigerator. Still running fine 5 years later.
Finally, I worked for a company that was taken over by a Jack Welch disciple who came from Schenectady. He turned a great place to work into a miserable place to work which eventually started to lose a lot of business.
