I suggest Bosch. Especially for dishwashers. My old apartment had one: 7 years with zero issues. My new house has one: zero issues, the design is a real pleasure to use, and it also happens to be the quietest dishwasher sold in the US, at least according to the Googling I did when I first ran it and could barely even tell it was on.

Seconding Bosch. I've only owned one of their dishwashers for a little over a year, and I'm really impressed with the low noise level. It also had a great leveling system that raises the back by turning a screw that was accessible from the front. It made DIY installation much easier. Bonus: no smart features to go sideways a few years down the line.

  I recently bought a condo that has a Bosch dishwasher and it works extremely well. Every other dishwasher I’ve owned has required some level of pre-rinsing in order to do its job. This thing has never left a speck of food behind. And the dishes actually come out dry. It’s almost confusing how well it works.

I also had zero issues with my Siemens appliances (dishwasher, fridge, washing machine)

  I think the coffee from our Seimens coffee maker tastes a bit off, but my wife loves the flavor.

    For espresso machines I swear by Delonghi

You also suggest Siemens, AEG and all the others using the same Bosch internals? They are mostly the same but are cheaper in general. Note: I own a Bosch the internals are great but the plastic is too thin in parts especially the corners of the top of my stand-alone dishwasher model since they broke.

When I researched appliances, nobody could decide on the best fridge other than suggestions that were 4x the price (or even more). But dishwashers it was almost unanimous, Bosch is best. I couldn't afford new ones, so I found good deals on second hand 500 series ones and they're both still going fine for myself and my rental suite (only a year and a half so far though). Crazy quiet too, I suggest people opt for the one that shines a light on the floor cause otherwise you can't hear it running (or finish). There's also a fancier model that projects a timer.
