LG

I have been using LG, Samsung as well as the more famous Japanese brand for the past few years.

LG products are solid and priced reasonably. Quality is able to match or exceed Japanese brand.

Example:

Bought 5 Philips Induction cooktop. Cannot last even when compare with no brand MIC product

Panasonic water heater with slient DC pump. Expensive, less feature, pressure is low even compare with local brand.

Samsung LCD TV, replaced 3 in the past 10 years.

Sharp Microwave Owen. Damaged 3 by lightning.

etc..etc..etc...

I do not have any single issue with LG products so far.
