      Honestly, my first washer/dryer, dishwasher, microwave, and refrigerator were all GE. We bought the house new and were 500 miles away. The house came with the dishwasher, and microwave. The builder put me in contact with his appliance supplier and I got to use their discount, which was only offered on GE products. I paid for the Dacor separately, as that is the range my wife wanted. At the time, she was the cook and my entry into the hobby of cooking was about 3 years away.

      Here is how long each one of those GE appliances lasted: Washer: 6 Dryer: 10 Microwave (over the range type which I hate): 8 Dishwasher: 12

      On top of the lack of longevity, the performance of each appliance was terrible compared to their contemporaries.

      Each was replaced with: Washer: Speed Queen current age 10 and works like new. Dryer: Speed Queen: currently 6 years old. Microwave (ditched the over the range and bought a range hood and a counter top microwave) Panasonic current age 8 years. Dishwasher: Bosch 800 series. With that said, the old GE was still working, however the dish racks were all rusting.
