Shortly after I bought this house — the third week of April, 2010 — I bought a brand new GE range and refrigerator from Home Depot (ordered April 25th, installed within a week.)
Had several problems with the fridge, both major and minor, before it finally died completely last August. I then bought a new fridge from Lowes.
The GE range is still going, but has some issues. About 3 years ago, rust started developing rust on the bottom of the oven door, that's gotten progressively worse. All markings wore of of the oven knob — I REFUSE to pay $35 for a replacement!
Worst of all, the oven floor has started to burn through in spots!!!! GRRRrrrrr!!!
I don't think I'll buy another range.
I cook for just myself 99% of the time and when I use burners, 90% of the time it's just one. So I may just buy a 'good' induction burner.
Not yet sure what I'll do for an oven...maybe just a small counter-top convection oven.
On June 11th, 2014 I ordered a Frigidaire 12,000 BTU air conditioner.
I installed it after it arrived about a week later.
It died last week, just about 2 years to the day after it was first installed! GRRRRrrrrr!!!!
