Major household appliance manufacturers are highly globalized, with several large domestic and foreign companies. Most major household appliance manufacturers have strong brand recognition and compete aggressively in the US market to produce and sell a wide range of durable consumer goods. However, because of the relatively high cost of manufacturing these major household appliances domestically, many manufacturers opt for less expensive offshoring.
Major household appliance manufacturers produce major household cooking appliances, refrigerators and home freezers, household laundry equipment and other major electrical and nonelectrical household appliances like dishwashers, garbage disposal units, water heaters and trash compactors. Small cooking appliances (e.g. hot plates), fans, vacuums and electric irons are not included.
