Trying to decide what to buy for the new pad. Need everything from fridge freezer to oven, washing machine, blah blah...
After looking at a lot of white goods, I can't escape the feeling that they are all made pretty much to the same standard in China, even the top brands (and I include Samsung and LG in this as they seem to have come from nowhere) don't "feel" much better made.
So I'm planning to buy below-average-cost items with the longest guarantees I can find, seems that nothing is built to last so paying for quality is a false economy. Any reviews I read of this stuff online, contain mixed reports which leads me to think two things.
1) Due to modern manufacturing, everything is pretty much as (un)reliable as anything else. 2) Brands are more "just a name" than they have ever been.Any comments useful, my brain hurts.
