    Any advice on reliable American style side-by-sides? I’m from the US and normally Kenmore are the highest rating which i don’t think exists here. I believe they are made by Whirpool – so would that be the best bet. Pretty much, is there a reliability / servicing difference between GE, Maytag (and its variations) and Whirlpool? Any recommendations – good or bad?

    Kenmore is indeed a US only brand.

    Most of the US style side-by-sides you’ll see will be made by Whirlpool, Maytag, LG and Samsung in the UK, sometimes with a pretty dress on to differentiate them, but the same thing basically.

    Personally I’d go for the Maytag as they have proved pretty robust in my experience of them.

    The Koreans are a nightmare for spares.

    Whirlpool have had issues with control PCBs and the ice making units.

    Hope that helps.

    I would go along with that sentiment, but add that ADMIRAL is another brand name used by the Maytag Corp, so it’s the same product 😉

    They also use Armana aswell but I must admit I prefer the Maytag.
