I've been a part supplier to Frigidaire and we've made some of the parts for
the Sears specified appliances. Sears is as big an appliance whore as any
retailer. They are interested in profit, as is Frigidaire. As longs as you
keep buying, they will keep selling. Your money, your choice, but it is not
the brand I'd buy. I've been in their plants, worked with their engineers,
designers, QC people.
