I inherited my parent’s Amana refrigerator: top refrigerator, bottom freezer drawer, no ice maker (my father didn’t want one, he figured it would break down). My parents bought it in 2003, so it’s now 20 years old. So far no problems, ever. Knock on wood.

My speed Queen clothes washer is awesome. My wooden drying rack and outside clothes line never breaks down!🤣

THANK you so much for the info. Thank you for putting this serviceman on. He is such a gentleman and is so honest. Thanks again.

I was also told to avoid Samsung and LG by my local retailer for the same reasons given here. It's sad to hear about GE. One thing I am doing in the future is stay away from bells and whistles including ice makers.

I love this interview. I didnt even know but because I live in an apartment I have noticed differences at the Wash House when doing laundry. This guy should have his own repair channel like Scotty Kilmer for cars except he'll do all househould appliances! looking forward to the next one.

My mother used to have all Kenmore appliances when I was a kid growing up in the 1960s. They lasted for years. Things sure have changed since then.

I have a 1983 gas O’Keefe and Merritt convention oven that is not electric start that was bought from Montgomery Wards and it still works great

I had two Maytag washers that each lasted 20 years. I had heard not to buy maytags anymore but I didn’t listen. Bought one from Home Depot and after using it twice I had them come and get it. Even if I chose the deep fill option, there would only be 8 inches of water in the tub and I had clothes coming out that weren’t even wet. Also It bounced all over and made a loud roaring noise when on the spin cycle. I finally did more research and was able to purchase a Speed Queen. They say they are made heavy duty like the Maytags were 40-50 years ago. Also they’re the only washer on the market that will actually fill the tub full of water. I’ve had it almost two years and I love it.

We bought a Speed Queen top load washer after our four year old Maytag broke and wasn’t worth repairing. Going with Speed Queen TC 5 was one of our best life decisions ever. It’s a work horse and well worth the extra $$. Another huge plus that your repairman didn’t mention is that they are made in the USA!

Our appliance repair guy also said to stay with American made appliances to make it easier to get parts.

THIS APPLIANCE PERSON IS EXTREMELY KNOWLEDGEABLE. WHAT ABOUT FRIGIDAIRE GALLERY AND WHIRPOOL?

I had a GE washer and dryer for 9 years when I replaced them. The sales person at Home Depot couldn't believe it. I bought LG after that. No complaints here after nearly 11 years.

Tawra! You didn’t hype this guy up for no reason--literally the most informative household video perhaps we all needed from someone in regards to things that are major purchases for us. And for many of us, the biggest purchase we might make in a decade! Please thank him on our behalf for his candor, and thank you for bringing him to us! What a gift

My side by side Whirlpool refrigerator is over 20 years old and she’s still running. The in door ice/water dispenser took a crap years ago but she’s still going. Glad you posted this.

Your repairman is so spot on. Back in 1973 we bought an entire household of Kenmore appliances.( fridge, stove, freezer and sewing machine) they all lasted for over 25 years! BUT, when we decided to remodel our kitchen, of course we went with Kenmore thinking they are really a good product. WELL. not anymore. I think most are made in China now because no one appliance lasted for more than 5 years! The stove quit on Thanksgiving day! and the dishwasher quit on Christmas. In our retirement home we went with Whirlpool and so far so good. five years and counting.

We got a Kenmore fridge. With great trepidation I looked at the manufacturer number. Gratefully it was made by Frigidaire, an American company. We fell in love with Maytag washers 40 years ago. Our landlord had an ancient dryer for us that still did a great job. We bought a set for our own place 27 years ago. The washer died last year (some parts are no longer available) and the dryer is still plugging away. Even in our ignorance God took care of us.

Good info. I live in the middle of nowhere Oregon. Repairmen do not come out here, I haul my stuff in 70 miles to Bend to get it fixed. No laundry mat for 30 miles. The LG washer was terrible for ranch husband clothes.

I still have my side by side Frigidaire Refrigerator from 1991, works like a champ still and my ice maker pumps out the ice cubes :)

I have a 1948 Western Holly stove that doesn’t have any electronics. It’s match-light. Still works great! 😂

This was a great video thank you so much for interviewing this young man! I've had older appliances for years and they have held up very well, I still have a gentleman that comes and works on them and it is so much cheaper than the new ones and he tells me how much better they are the older ones that is.

Awesome info. I just hope Pistol doesn't put himself out of business giving out these secrets. He has a great personality, very funny. Please let him know that his time and knowledge is greatly appreciated.

I have bought used appliances (yes with cosmetic flaws who cares) that have lasted and lasted and lasted. I have a extra large"supreme 7 cycle whirlpool dryer" from estate sale marked down to $25 . That was 3 yrs ago and still works great. A traditional Sears large capacity washer from Salvation army $35 still going after 10 years.

Sad to hear GE no longer has quality products. My dad helped make refrigerators for about 30 years. Thank you for all the great info.

The Gentleman is right about GE appliances. My refrigerator broke down around middle of February and I got to wait 3 weeks for a GE technician to diagnose the issue. This refrigerator is almost new. It doesn’t have two years and now my service insurance is telling me that the cost of repair is higher that the cost of a new unit. After a month, I am still waiting for the reimbursement from the insurance company.

I have a Magic Chef gas range that I bought new almost 45 years ago. It still works and looks great!

I have been waiting for this video with bated breath!!! GREAT INFORMATION!!! Thank you Pistol!!! We are very blessed to have you looking out for customers!!!!

Love my speed-queen washer and dryer! That’s all I will buy for the rest of my days

Love my Speed Queen top load washing machine! I'll spend what I need on water and power to have clean clothes. I save by not having a dryer. We farm and have dirty clothes.

Had a lg washer and dryer for 20 years left with house we moved love them

We’ve had to buy a new gas stove, and dishwasher almost at the same time😭 We had to buy a new washer a couple of years ago and I went with Speed Queen. I didn’t care about the cost (well, a little, ha!), I just wanted a basic no-nonsense workhorse of a washer. I LOVE it! It’s made in America and it’s a commercial heavy duty👍🏼 The dishwasher I got is a Whirlpool, which at the time I got it, the selection was limited, so doing a do-diligence was fruitless because of limited availability! The really stupid part of the dishwasher is that it’s supposed to be an “energy saver”, which means it cycles on and off during the wash cycle. Now, get this……it takes it 2 HRS to complete a load!! How in the name of all that is Holy, can that save energy??!!🤷‍♀️ My old dishwasher, which was a beast and I loved it, was done is less than an hour AND cleaned much better! I absolutely hate all these new appliances on the market 👎🏻😡

Haier does own a majority stake in GE appliance but they are made in the USA with factories in four states. I own a GE fridge, range, microwave, and dishwasher, that I purchased 3 years ago and have been very happy with them. Consumer Reports gives GE a good rating and based on my experience so far I would agree.

Love this guy! He is smart and very informative!

Loved this show! Thank you! I bought all Kenmore appliances from Sears Hardware in 1999 when I bought a new house. Kenmore (Whirlpool) refrigerator never had an issue at all. It was great. I gave it away to a friend in 2015 (16yo) because I decided to go with stainless steel appliances (from Sears Hardware) vs. white. It's working FINE still for him as a 2nd fridge. No icemaker issues! My new Whirlpool fridge has been the WORST I HAVE EVER HAD: it had a board issue and froze food. Service contract saved me $$$ as repair company was out three or four times. Repair insurance also offered to pay for any lost food. I still have this thing, but it's just a matter of time. No icemaker issues, YET! I gave away my Kenmore washer/dryer pair to a friend in 2010 because, again, I wanted stainless steel look and bought Samsung front loaders. It worked for her well until she died and I'm sure it's still working today. My new Samsung w/d had nothing but issues. Had to call out repair three times on washer (gasket, leveling bearings), and once on dryer (drum leveler?). Extended warranty from Worst Buy saved me! Otherwise, repair would have cost $$$. Never again will I buy a Samsung appliance!!!

So far he’s stating exactly what my repair guy just told me as I am now replacing my fridge because the control board is not doing it job. It will be interesting to see if he suggests the same brands as my repair guy.

You don't need a special pan, use a cookie sheet with a cookie cooler rack.

This was very informative, thank you! I bought my speed Queen 4 years ago and love it. It was well worth the money to have my clothes come out super clean in a short amount of time.

He is very honest and knowledgeable!!

This was supremely valuable information that no one that I’ve seen has put out a video on. Thank you. What would be helpful (with him) is a video with some recommendations (broad since I’m sure he doesn’t want to be too specific ) of what to look for and the best way to shop for.

Bought a 5000$ LG fridge, the largest capacity made for home fridges....it was nothing but a nightmare from the start. At least every 6 months the repair man was out and I lost all of the food. He said the issue with mine was common with all new fridges. The issue could not be permanently fixed..... thank God I got the 3 year extra warranty. $5000 and the fridge was dead in 3 years 😖 I now have an old school fridge from the early 90's and it has never had a single issue 🤣

Great video.. We bought a Speed Queen top loader (TR 7 ) and we love it. My hubby would not allow another front loader in our house. We had one years ago, did everything right and it still had mold. I did a lot of research and quickly learned if I wanted a top loader to last more than 3 years I wold have to pony up the big bucks for the speed queen. For those who are not familiar, Speed Queen is not sold in the big box stores like Home Depot because of the price point. The washer and electric dryer was $2900. So happy I didn't buy an LG which was my second choice.

I have a kenmore side by side 20 years old runs like a charm, in my garage for a back up refrigerator!

I feel so blessed, my stove, dishwasher and refrigerator are all GE. And my washer and dryer are Samsung. None of them have 111. in the model number. And I have had no problems. Thank you God.

Our appliance guy in NH said don’t buy Samsung. The appliance repair guys won’t come and fix them. Our water dispenser rusted! Here in PA, our appliance repair man said buy Speed Queen. And our local appliance store (not big box) apparently reamed out their local ge representative.

THANK YOU !!!!!! After this I'm replacing my GE dishwasher and my Samsung refrigerator next week. I've had nothing but problems!!!!

💯 agree with the appliance guy !!! Just bought a GE dishwasher...800 bucks...it's the worst dishwasher I've ever owned...pure garbage. And LG is no better. Thanks so much !!!

I appreciate your interview with this incredible technician. I learned so much about what brands to buy. I am days away from purchasing a refrigerator. The model site info and model explanation will be very helpful. You both saved my husband and me from buying the wrong refrigerator. Thank you

Overload of information. Thank you so much for this. This explains so much.

This was one of the most helpful interviews I’ve seen. It explains so much. Since I’m a bit older I know what we once had and I now know why I was scratching my head over my new appliances, washer and fridge. Thank God I still have my Dryer working. I first encountered LG, Samsung etc. in my daughter’s new home. Hated all her appliances. Then I needed 2 new ones, it’s been the pits. TY and your guest especially for giving us this information. I shall pass it along to my girls.

This was very informative. Please thank your serviceman for such a thorough report.

During the pandemic we purchased a new Whirlpool basic refrigerator/freezer. We had/have an old Whirlpool basic refrigerator and love it. Due to supply chain issues I thought it behooved us to purchase a new one (took 3 months for delivery) in case the old one went bad. We love our new basic side by side. No ice maker or water dispenser. Old one still kicking over 20 years.

Thanks for sharing this information. Can hardly wait for the video on how to maintain our appliances. I thankfully have a handy-dandy son that works on our appliances, if he thinks they are repairable. He removed our ice maker years ago & custom cut an acrylic shelf to put into the freezer where the ice maker had been.

This is so timely! I was looking at ovens to replace ours and was considering the air fryer.

We replaced a JennAir fridge when it hit 20 years old (came with the house) so we would not have to purchase something in "desparation." We were limited because our space is "counter depth." so there were fewer choices meaning a greater possibility it would have been hard to find a replacement. I do not have real data. but suspect the new one {Whirlpool, no in door dispenser for water or ice and ice maker is in the freezer) is much more energy efficient than what we took out. Glad you have such a great expert to get info from as you select your appliances.

I have some of the fryer pans, for cooking, baking, in the oven. They work great!

Thank you for this. Everyone should see this. Very valuable information.

Thanks for this video. Very helpful and from my past experiences with appliances, so very true.

Great show ! so glad you did the interview. I have and never liked the door dispenser ice , now I know why! I just never liked the "look" of it...we have always gone to the sink for water.. some people are LAZY!! We bought our Kenmore appliances in 2016 , my husband insisted on having an in freezer ice maker, every year for 4 of the 5 years of the warranty , we had a problem with the ice maker!!! a month after our warranty was up , my microwave went out DEAD... the so called Sears warranty we repurchased cause so many problems, never ever will I ever deal anything with a sears Kenmore name!!!! I ended up buying a GE microwave!!! wish I knew some of this before , I did buy a warranty on the GE microwave, and they said we would get half of our money back if we do not have a service call during the warranty period..

Great information !! Another great video as usual .

Oh goodness…I wish I knew this information before, but glad to hear it all now! My refrigerator went out end of 2020, it took a year to get my new refrigerator because it was stuck on the cargo ship out in the Pacific Ocean. Now I have a ge 😂

This is a great interview. Thank you so much for posting it. My ice maker failed and made a horrible mess, and I decided to never have an icemaker again (inside or outside the freezer).

THANK YOU VERY MUCH, Tawra for this video. I'm in the market for a new fridge and washer. I will NEVER buy a fridge with an ice maker again.. It was the first thing to break. Very valuable information. I was also told by a repair man to stay away from SAMSUNG. 🙏🙏

I have an air fryer pan that I got for Christmas 3 years ago and I love it! I use it in a standard electric oven, nothing fancy. Tawra you need one of those pans!

I got a used side-by-side white GE Profile refrigerator a few years ago...an older one with no ice maker in the door. It replaced the crappy stainless steel, practically new Samsung that needed a compressor and was terrible to keep clean. Paid less for the used GE than I would have paid for the Samsung repair. There's more room in the freezer without the bulky ice maker and I can turn the interior ice maker on or off...depending if I want ice or not. Nice, sleek look and wipes clean with a damp sponge. Love it!

My daughter bought a Samsung refrigerator and it quit 3 days after the warranty expired. The cost to fix it was going to be almost as much as the fridge cost originally. I love my Speed Queen washer & dryer. I also like Bosch and Kitchenaid.

Thanks so much for this! I have always grilled my long-time mechanic for advice about what cars to buy or not buy, as the people who repair things are the best ones to ask about problems. Same goes re: appliances with my 'old' appliance repairman. He is an EXPERT & far more reliant than a salesman shilling for a crap brand in a retail store.

All this is great ..And for years I have always Listened to my REPAIR MAN.. In my house I have whirlpool.. 🇺🇸

Such great info that will probably save us all money and a headache! Definitely taking his advice when it's time to buy👍Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for this informative video. Something different but still money-saving.

Thanks a lot!!! This is very helpful 😉 Blessings! ♥️

Thanks for the great interview! It was very helpful and useful information.

Thank you for this very practical video! When I moved into my house in 1989 it had an old-style fridge and open-coil electric stove from when it was built in 1983. The fridge is still working in our basement. I'm now on set three of my kitchen's expensive stainless steel appliances. The worst was the last set (set number two). That was a Samsung fridge and a Kenmore stove. Both had to be repaired constantly. The Samsung had very frequent issues with gaskets and other "energy-saving" contraptions on the doors. Things like little plastic pieces that were supposed to seal the door but always jammed open and did the opposite. Finally, something happened to the freezer door, and the repairman said we should replace this over $2500 fridge, as that repair would be astronomical. My friend also had a Samsung fridge, which he got rid of after 3 years as it constantly broke, and he had to throw out food. The Kenmore range was also very expensive. as it was induction/convection. The oven thermostat would go out about once a year, but I kept trying to fix it. This usually involved replacing a circuit board. Finally, the repairman said I needed the master board, but they were no longer available, and I had to landfill the range. It was upsetting to constantly repair these appliances, and one Thanksgiving (we were serving a total of 20 people), the oven was out, and we had to cook Thanksgiving dinner via an electric roaster (old fashion, but worked), the microwave, and a toaster oven! Even worse was the environmental impact of throwing away huge appliances because the parts were no longer available while our much older and simpler fridge still chugged away in the basement. By the way, what brands did your repairman recommend for various appliances?

VERY Informative. Thank you very much!!

This was a very informative interview. I may be having to purchase a new dishwasher soon and trying to figure out which brand is best is overwhelming.

I have SMEG (Italian) and AMICA (Polish) appliances at home. The work and the y look great.

Thanks for the information on which appliances not to buy!

As an appliance dealer and repair I applaud all of this great information!

Whirlpool made my Kenmore Elite refrigerator. I would trust them more than any other of the brands that were available at that time. But the builder of our house chose all GE appliances for the ones they installed (oven, dishwasher, and stovetop). Crossing my fingers they hold up.

Thank you so much Tawra and Pistol! I needed this information! Looking forward to the next video!

All my appliances are Fridgadaire and I love them.

My Kenmore refrigerator bought in 2016 broke its compressor 5 X so we bought a GE refrigerator and it works Great!

Excellent interview! By the end I was asking myself what brands are left that are okay to buy... And of course you anticipated this. Looking forward to your next video!

I love my Speed Queen washer. More old school with agitator and enough water to get the clothes clean. We opted not to have the ice maker/water dispenser in the door and went for the freezer ice maker in the new fridge. Have had nothing but trouble with the ice maker replacing it several times. I told my husband to bag it and I now just empty ice trays and am a happy camper without the frustration.

He is absolutely right about GE. I loved my GE microwave, so when it went out after about 14 years I bought another one, not realizing they had been purchased in 2016. It is the "same" model, but it is really not.

Have a Speed Queen clothes washer. Bought it less than a year ago brand new. Love it so far.

I have Whirlpool two Side by side is working fine for me ! They are over 10 years old no problems!

great info here - thank you for speaking true and holding back - this is what we need more of

I learned a lot!! Thank you!

We have a Wide-By-Side, (15 yrs ago). I love it Had it for 9 yrs with no issues and of course they stopped making it.

The majority of my appliances are GE. They are 26 years old and working great. My mom's are GE also and are 35 years old. Still working great. In both homes they are the original appliances provided by the builder. The exception is the fridge, we both had to replace those once. My Mom's and my fridge are around 15 years old. Mine is the LG french door. I did replace the ice maker myself last year. I called LG and they sent me a new ice maker for around 150 dollars. Not sure what brand I would go with in the future. Had to replace my 30 year old washer and dryer (really only washer because it was leaking) a couple of years ago. Went with Whirlpool. They were the least expensive and had made in USA stickers on them. I am happy with their performance. I've had them for about 5 years and have options as far as load size and water levels. Looking forward to finding out what brands your technician recommends. When I'm in my forever home, I want a professional gas stove/oven like a Wolf. Thank you for sharing.

I appreciated this information. Thank you for doing this video!

Excellent information!! Thank you.

I love this series 💕 thanks. Can't wait to see the next one.

NOW, I hear this! I recently purchased a top loader (no agitator - new to me feature) by Maytag. I did learn that bigger is not always better in refrigerators. We have to buy tiny, due to available room in our kitchen. We use them til the external falls apart. My friends with big fridges seem to have big problems.

Thank you! I was waiting for this.

THANK YOU for this video!!!!

My in the freezer ice maker broke right after the warranty expired, with the cost to repair we bought ice cubes trays and are good to go. Would never have an ice maker again.

I have a 25 year old maytag washer and intend to keep it.

We had purchased a Kenmore dryer in 1983, and it still works, it never needed servicing.

What a FANTASTIC video!! I didn’t think I’d find a better informative video than the last one I watched but this was PHENOMENAL!
