New Kitchen Appliances Hi John, Get any Maytag DW, they are simpler and more rugged than their WP-KA cousins.
For electric cooking, GE still outdoes WP-KA and Frigidaire.
Refrigerator is a little tougher, in general try to keep it simple, skip French door bottom freezer models especially with ice through the door, if you want through the door I&W stay with a SXS.
Best bottom freezer models are Amana, WP, Maytag, KA & Jenn-air made in the USA models keeping in mind the above comments.
Best top freezer models are WP & GE with IM inside the freezer.
Call me if you have more questions.

Electric cooktops............... If I was not a tenant........(I pay my rent on time, no loud parties and so on.............) I would consider INDUCTION! Best of both! Lawrence/Maytagbear | ||

ice maker considerations.....
through the door dispensing is fine.... preference goes to an icemaker and bin that is inside the freezer.....not on the door the main thing...CAPACITY if its just one or two people, small ones may be fine.....but for larger families, groups of people, parties, wash-ins....you will run out quick.... even if you push the Accel-Ice button, its still 24 hours for the bucket to refill | ||

 I got a KitchenAid induction double oven range May 2017. All my cookware was copper bottomed Revere. I obviously had to give it up. Now the clad bottomed Revere may work with induction. I also have Visions cookware as well as Corningware. That's all been relegated to oven use. And it's terrific since I have a total of 3 ovens. | ||

The only thing I HATE about Kitchenaid is the horrible steam cleaning oven. If they had REAL self cleaning ovens, i'd definitely get Kitchenaid. | ||

I had a friend that had an older Kitchenaid, double oven, freestanding in his kitchen. That curved design that somewhat reminds a kitchenaid mixer... (at least it tries) I would kill for one of those stoves nowadays, empire red, of course. and it was a REAL self cleaning. not the Aqualaugh | ||

I ran into the same thing when recommending kitchen appliances to my sister in the summer of 2017. Went with a Maytag suite (dishwasher, refrigerator, electric range). I specifically checked the features list to make sure it had standard self-cleaning and not AquaClean or AquaSteam or, as Thomas put it, AquaLaugh. The next time I was at her place, I looked at the controls and apparently all it offers is steam cleaning. I was not a happy camper.
Other than that, all three appliances perform beautifully and she loves them. Especially the dishwasher. She'd had a BOL builder's-grade Frigidaire for many years. Damn thing just wouldn't die, LOL. | ||
