Woooooooooooooooooooooooonderful news!!! If I were american, i would buy a GE dishwasher even without needing one, just to say "thank you". If this GE internal politics continues, soon the "Old" GE quality tradition will be back. |

As faras I know and heard from reliable sources,GE's appliance division has been seperated and completely removed from the company's conglomeration.They claimed its drop in profits was not economical to keep them on their payroll.The video may have been filmed at the Kentucky factory but don't be fooled.I heard them say nothing in the film about appliances.They may have used a previously filmed video from there to save money.

My brother-in-law briefly worked for GE. According to him, GE only stays in something if they are No. 1 or No. 2. "Yes", I said "a lot of people think of GE as No.2". He was was not laughing. |

re: GE, I did not think Mexico was overseas. But it's a good thing I guess, that Nissan and Toyota see Tennessee and Mississippi, as "developing countries". |

Here's a local newspaper story with some more info about the products made in Louisville. I'm surprised to see any fridges made there at all. Every one I look at in stores says Made in Mexico. CLICK HERE TO GO TO supersuds's LINK |

I don't think that China has an OSHA department checking into Chinese factories ensuring that the employees are following safe practices and working in a safe environment. |
