Oh then for washing machine you're looking at commercial models.

Miele supposedly has really good vacuum cleaners though I've never used them. Electrolux seems to also make some good stuff if you go high end.

I looked at Friedrich air conditioners for some rentals I manage. They are made for industrial environments and can take a beating and last a long time. I ended up being able to repair the old one and didn't need it, but that's what I found as a BIFL alternative that I will get when it breaks next.
