GE reveals names of 3 companies after historic split

Does anyone remember when GE made great home appliances? The Electrolux Group of Sweden was going to buy them but the US DoJ sued to stop the deal on anti-trust grounds. Now GE appliances is owned by Haier Group.

No, but I do remember the failed GE-Honeywell merger.

Yessir. We had a large, chocolate brown GE fridge, with aluminum ice trays. Bullet proof. But we had to get the whole extended family to help lift it when we moved houses.

Near my childhood home was a large General Electric factory that employed hundreds of men for decades before it was closed and demolished. It was a place people wanted to work and were proud of it.

Lol, a chocolate brown fridge. Those were the days when homes had sinks and toilets in colors like avocado green, pink, gray, butterscotch and blue. You go into a bathroom and the Formica counter tops, sink, toilet and tub would all be the same color, and it wouldn't be white. My mom always wanted her fridge to be pale yellow and you used to be able to buy appliances in "designer colors" like that. It was a really sad day for her when that last yellow fridge finally died and the only replacements were white, black or stainless steel.

My son helped move the refrigerator I grew up with when my parents moved from the mountains to a "55 and over" (read as old folks neighborhood), for their garage fridge. Talk about bullet proof. I have been getting about 10 to 15 years out of mine.
