When it comes to the choice of domestic appliances, you have to know for sure where to shop. Some companies offer good quality, but their prices are just steep; others set low prices but their products fall apart. The thing is that you have to find the happy medium that would satisfy you in all the aspects. We so to say submit you two companies on approval: LG and Maytag with all the pros and cons.

LG. Despite most of the company’s factories and employees are situated in Korea, LG is really a world-wide home and commercial appliance company. It doubles the industry average of 4.2 percent and has about 45,000 employees all over the globe. The company caters to the areas of consumer goods with its domestic appliances. Although LG invests almost 12 percent of its revenue on research and development, this “Life is good”-company produces things that are not always good. There have been many complaints written on the unsatisfactory works of the appliances. Some people buy refrigerators or washing machines that do not work well from the start. And what is worse, it is very difficult to get a refund and change the item. They suggest just replacing the part, but that can be not the only problem. That is why there are so many LG complaints all over the web.

Maytag. This was an appliance company headquartered in Newton, Iowa. In 2006 Maytag was acquired by Whirlpool Corporation. Maytag’s first washing machine was produced in 1907. By 1924, every fifth washing machine in the world was produced by Maytag and in three years the company had made over a million washing machines and a lot of other domestic appliances. But notwithstanding all these figures, there are many Maytag complaints. It happens very often that some Maytag item do not work and it turns out to be very difficult to change the part and to call the repairman. Part surely would not be available and even if the tech would come to repair your appliance, it is better for him to come again, since he gets paid a commission. So, the repair would not be that trustworthy. Thus, you can find a lot of Maytag complaints about the customer service.

MAACO and AAMCO

If you have some troubles with your car it means that you have to spend a lot of money on it. Everybody should know that when it comes to car repair you do not have to save money on it because it will result in even more problems. So, when you take your car to some inexpensive auto body repair shop, you should not complain later. They charge you a little and they do a little help to your car. Among this auto body repair shops are two names that sound good but actually are not that good in practice: MAACO and AAMCO.

MAACO. MAACO is one of those notorious auto body repair shops that everybody knows that they do not do good job but people still go there. It happens that people just do not have other possibility on the road, their car is dying and not starting or they decide to run a risk and maybe get their car painted good. But usual complaints prove that this thing happen very rare. People keep on reporting about their bad experience with MAACO. The reasons they complain are the same: MAACO paints the car horribly and unprofessionally. Cars generally have pits everywhere and paint chips. And it does not matter how many times a customer would tell the manager of the auto body repair shop that that car was painted unacceptably, they would repaint it the same. And they would do this for a pretty long time so that customer would lose not only money but his working hours to deal with the problem.

AAMCO. The same situation is with AAMCO. They claim to call themselves “Transmission Experts”. In fact that means that they are experts in rebuilding you transmission because if they has done it once, the transmission would go down again an again. And this thing can happen with you on the road and then you would have to wait for the repair for quite a long time. And AAMCO provide such a poor quality notwithstanding that they are nation wide.
