Agiflow I partly agree with you.
It sort of seems like Whirlpool is a very siloed business now.
Their dishwashers they have now, which came out a few years ago, are on an excellent platform.
It's a larger tub, with a lot of refinement from the Global Wash platform.
Reviews and quality still seem very high.
But then yeah, there's the laundry group, which over the past several years, really does seem "meh."
Seems like they're just barely staying competitive, on paper.
Plastic washer windows on the front loaders still? You kidding me? Even though they still put glass on the top loaders? Very weird.
I don't know who their program and product managers are over there, but they're really beta.
The rest of the lines seem pretty good still, but yeah maybe not quite as rock solid as they used to be.
They still put good resources into KitchenAid, thank goodness.
But the Whirlpool line really does feel like a basic Chevy sometimes.
And then Jerome.
I know this is exceedingly pointless to try to explain, so I guess it'll be more appreciated by everyone else.
Why....WHY would GE/Haier bring back a dinosaur of a platform like the Filterflo?
Nobody wants that.
You clearly don't know anything about business, nor pay your own utilities I bet.
Filterflos were stinky, and horribly small for the stupid amounts of water they used, with their huge stationary outer tub.
No matter how much you want them, they're not returning.
Besides, the modern GE washers can be optioned to fill up all the way to the top.
Guess what? That uses MORE water than a pig like a Filterflo used anyway.
