with KitchenAid, Farberware, and Whirlpool. Okay, thanks! You just did that. Hi, I'm Daniel, and welcome to Pissed Consumer Channel
0:40
You want a boy band of whippersnappers to get mad at me? He said it's reported to the police
0:45
I'll have your family killed. Let's start with a splash in the kitchen
0:50
KitchenAid dishwashers are known for their sleek design and quiet operation. But what happens when the shine wears off a bit too soon
0:59
This user's 9-month-old stainless steel KitchenAid dishwasher started rusting near its steam vent
1:07
Despite being under warranty, customer service labeled it cosmetic and wasn't much help
1:13
Can you imagine the frustration of paying extra for a service call on a nearly new machine
1:20
Alright, another KitchenAid dishwasher tale then. This time, it's rust leading to fears of flooding
1:27
Imagine your dishwasher corner rusted through. It's not just malfunction, it's a potential home hazard
1:34
These rust issues are a real alarm bell. Okay, moving from dishwashers to coffee makers
1:41
Let's talk about Farberware. A morning coffee is nearly sacred. But what if your coffee pot is more trouble than it's worth
1:50
One user's coffee pot handle broke mid-pour nearly scalding their dog. And another's coffee maker just stopped working

Now let's take a closer look at some alarming issues with Farberware products
2:55
Imagine frying up some french fries and suddenly your deep fryer starts smoking
3:01
One viewer had a narrow escape with a potential fire hazard. A smoking plug is no small fry in kitchen safety
3:09
And it's not just fryers, we've got coffee pots cracking under pressure, literally
3:15
One of our viewers had their Farberware coffee pot crack in two places
3:20
Another faced a startling situation with their 8-cup coffee pot cracking after just a few weeks of use
3:27
It seems like these pots are brewing more trouble than coffee. These Farberware stories are a stark reminder that even trusted brands can have their boiling points
3:37
It's not just about the product, it's about peace of mind at stake
3:41
Next up, let's talk about Whirlpool, a brand that's in many many homes, but it seems not always for the right reasons
3:48
Starting with their microwave. One viewer reported their microwave, only 4 years old, was falling apart
3:55
They feared possible chemical release into their food, similar to Teflon issues
4:01
Not exactly what you expect when you warm up your dinner. But it's not just microwaves. Whirlpool's fridges have been a cold spot for complaints
4:11
Imagine your refrigerator spoiling food repeatedly, with frost buildup ruining everything. One customer expressed frustration over multiple spoiled food incidents and unsatisfactory solutions
4:25
This is the fifth time that I have had this issue in the back of my refrigerator
4:30
And, you know, this unit I believe has been a lemon since the day that it arrived to my home
4:40
And then there's the story of a fridge with a failing compressor and condenser, leading to over 2 months of repairs
4:47
The customer's calls for an exchange were met with cold refusal. Lastly, a replacement fridge that frosted up and couldn't keep the cold
4:57
After just 3 weeks, it's déjà vu for the customer with a broken fridge and spoiled food
5:08
These Whirlpool stories aren't just about appliances failing, they are about trust melting away
5:15
A reminder that brand name doesn't always guarantee reliability. And there we have it, another episode filled with real stories from real people
5:25
