The last several GE appliances I bought were made in China. They lasted about 4 years before breaking down, and repair was going to b4 90% of a new appliance.
As far as I am concerned, they got put of the Appliance business when they quit manufacturing in USA. They adopted the Pier One retail model, just import foreign junk, buy low-sell high and laugh all the way to the bank.
GE Appliances has not quit manufacturing in the USA.
They recently invested $1B to expand their Louisville KY plant.
They make top freezer,built-in and French door refrigerators in the USA.
They make front loading washing machines and dryers in the USA.
They make their pro-style ranges in the USA.
Most of their non-USA manufacturing is now in Mexico.
Rising labor cost in China and transportation cost from China is returning large appliance manufacture to North America.
