LG and Maytag
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.
