I just dealt with some flooding from a dishwasher in my condo. Ended up deciding to move forward with a more extensive renovation that we had planned to do in the next couple of years.

Just bought a whole new set of appliances. I researched the hell out of them and, while i preferred not to buy the same brand for each product we ended up going with many Fisher and Paykel items. Essentially a mid-ranged brand. Along with a Miele dishwasher.

All-in it wasnt cheap, but the next brand we were looking at was Bosch, which came out around the same price point, if a bit less, for a few items. We ultimately paid a bit more for the aesthetics of F&P (all black or integrated/panel ready).

My current kitchen was all EDIT: GE not LG) which surprising i had no issues with for a decade (except the dishwasher leak) with regular maintenance.

However, i understand most appliances now suffer from reliability issues.

From everything i read, if you want a more reliable fridge, you have to ditch the door water/ice dispenser. We bought a fridge with an internal ice maker, and then bought a water filter system and faucet for the sink.
