NinaWe just bought a new LG washer/dryer from Costco on a bit of an emergency basis. I was super happy with their service a few years back on a similar purchase for our rental unit and remained so after this. But we didn't really get a chance to do much comparison shopping.
So far, everything is running fine.
TBH, I didn't know that LG was in the cell phone business. But then again, I think this odd semi-worship we have with our cell phones is not something I participate in. It's a phone. Does it work? Cool. I'll take it.
