    Almost all glass front appliances are triple pane energy-efficient glass, so the heat loss is minimal to none. Very hard to find a solid door range except for extreme commercial or low-end. Besides, who doesn’t want to watch their food cook?! GE even makes cameras in the ovens now, so you never have to open the door to take a peek again. You can even watch your food from your smartphone!

    The best refrigerator on the market would be the Sub-Zero brand. They make the most reliable unit that costs more but lasts the longest.

    I do not have a chart from brand to brand, but if you look for the energy star logo on the yellow tag, that will tell you it is among the most efficient. Years ago, a dishwasher would use about 12 gallons of water per cycle. Modern dishwashers use as little as 4. They recycle a lot of water with advanced filtration and water sensors making the most of it. Almost all LG dishwashers are energy-star rated, so they will be on the lower end of the chart. Making them very efficient.

    They are almost all LG appliances have wifi built-in. Using their Thinq app, you can access extra programs on the machines. Turn stoves on and off. Most importantly, it lets servicers log in to troubleshoot a problem before coming to the home. Look for the ThinQ logo on the appliance that will tell you if it is smart capable.

    Almost all major appliances come with industry-standard 1-year parts and labor. Some brands will cover parts past that, up to 5 years on components like a motor on a washer or compressor on a fridge. Higher-end brands like Thermador come with a factory 2-year parts and labor warranty on all. It is brand-specific, so check in the manual with each item.
