What are the most problem Appliances?
We would recommend avoiding the following appliances:
Combo Washer Dryers
Stand-Alone Ice Maker Machines
Downdrafts
Combo Washer Dryers
It sounds like a great choice for limited space but as far as functionality and reliability, it is the least reliable appliance to buy. Washer dryer combo is almost never the best way to do your laundry and couldn’t find any models that work anywhere near as quickly and reliable as a separate unit. It takes a long, long time to complete a cycle due to dryers are always under powered at 110 volts vs 220. It is always required more repairs then any stand-alone dryers or washers. We do recommend to buy smaller sizes standalone dryers and washers and just put on the top of each other, in case if any of two units will break down and will need to be replaced, you will be able just replace one of them without replacing the whole unit.
Most of combo units cost anywhere from $900 and up to $2000
Stand-Alone Ice Maker Machines
If you are constantly in need of getting ice and can afford maintenance, then you will need to buy an ice maker. There are so many different types of icemaker that can make variety of transparency and shape of cubes for your favorite drink. However, these units are required a lot of maintenance, constant run on water causes corrosion on the working parts plus it must be cleaned thoroughly. Most common issue with these units is leak then no ice.
Most of icemakers cost anywhere from $1400 and up to $5000
Downdrafts
Downdraft Ventilation System is a great additional to your kitchen, it looks cool and it is supposed to ventilate the smoke, grease and heat outside of the house if the vent work performed correctly. Downdraft mechanism is going up and down and it is not reliable, most common issue with up and down switches or blower motor. The installation is incredibly difficult and in many cases is not done right.
Most of downdrafts cost anywhere from $900 and up to $2000
Nowadays, appliances supposed to make our life easier, even though some of them has intention to do that, but with all repairing issues and cost it makes our life harder. We recommend buying the simple appliances with less electronics in it because more parts inside the more repairs it will need in the long run.
