I bought a Samsung Washer & Dryer about five years ago based on reviews from Consumer Reports, and I have not had any problems whatsoever. Maybe some items are made in Korea, and some in China or elsewhere, and that accounts for different qualities. The service you get might depend on who you buy it from. It used to be you could depend on GE's, Frigidaire's, and Maytag's to last for decades, whether they were efficient or not.

Yes it's 2:58 AM. Yes I'm awake again at an insane hour. Yes I'm stressed about getting my coach conversion done...

Some honest experience here:
We installed a used Samsung 26 cubic foot fridge in our MCI 9. It lasted us 6 years without a hitch or problem whatsoever. That fridge saw power surges, brownouts, 50hz from an old broken generator and frequent shut down and startups when old generators were acting up. Never ever gave us any trouble. So, in the new conversion, we ordered a counter depth Samsung from HD. We opted for the slideout freezer drawer and no water/ice in the door as we drink bottled water and enjoy the extra space for food. since this unit is counter depth and only 33" wide, it's only a 17 cubic foot unit. But we also have a small chest freezer on board so I think we are good.

My fridge deal is over with we decided on the 19cf Sunfrost with the bottom freezer,I like the idea of having 3 power sources 110ac.12v or 24v dc and there wasn't much different in the price between the LG and the Sunfrost lol plus I can drive the bus to the manufacture and he will help me install it and wire it properly since I have all 3 power sources I can screw up

Crazy price for those things. Household refrigerators are getting more efficient every year with govt. energy use regs. More and better insulation, smaller and more efficient compressors, drawer freezers, double door fresh food sections, led lights......pretty soon the only reason you'll need a sub frost for is multivoltage.

The prices posted on the internet are his suggested retail prices for the SunFrost fwiw,he is sorta of a @$# to deal with at first till he figures out you really want to buy then he deals and becomes more personable
