Appliance reviews?

I payed out big 3 years ago and bought matching washer and dryer Maytag and thought I was doing good, the washer didn't last a year, they fixed it 3 times under warranty and told me it was unfixable the last time, I bought a new GE a few months ago and it seems alright so far, still too much electronics I think. My parents had a whirlpool that lasted from 1973 to 1989, I sure wish they made them like they used to.
