Realities

Recent challenges have brought to mind lots of thinking about who we do business with. We went through an ordeal where a dishwasher leaked. So here are so leftover thoughts that might help others.

1) Pull out all appliances occasionally for signs of leaking. Leaking can come from any part of the appliance and not just houses and connections.
2) Do not assume that the repairman will fix and not possibly cause more damage to your appliance.
3) State Farm Insurance has been fantastic but our broker completely failed to do her job.
4) Never buy another Frigidaire appliance. We have far too many repairs and incredibly non-existent customer service. They do not care and will not help.
5) This one is hard because we have bought appliances at Lowes for many years. They always get us the best price. However, the Lowes extended warranty is a waste of the paper it was written on and in fact caused more problems and expenses. No one else would stand up to take care of the dishwasher because it was covered under warranty and yet the warranty would not cover it either.
6) We live in a time when no one wants to take responsibility for anything. It is incredibly difficult to find anyone who works hard, cares, and will do their best to do the right thing always.
