Maytag coming through clutch again with a microwave this time. My favorite feature is stainless steel inside. Don't have to worry about paint chipping off. It's easier to clean in my opinion.

Frigidaire really does refrigerators & freezers the best. We have 4 Frigidaire products in our house. The main refrigerator, 2 mini fridges, & an upright freezer

I don’t know about you, but we have 2 upright freezers & can’t live without them. Home Depot, imo, has one of the largest freezer sections. At least online.

I’m told the GE wine fridges are superb compared to many other brands. I can’t drink alcohol so we don’t have one. But those I know who do rave about them.

We have 2 mini fridges, both Frigidaire because they do mini fridges the best. 1 has a freezer top the other doesn’t. The freezer top we use as a snack fridge. And the no freezer version is our drink fridge.
