This is very true. Just try to remember the last commercial or ad you’ve seen for something GE makes. I can’t remember anything.

Way back in the day, GE was one of the largest advertisers in the world.

yeah poor companies they outsourced to countries with zero IP protection and made absolute bank until those countries started surprise surprise copying and selling the stuff themselves

who could've guessed?

GE sold the appliance business to Haier back in 2016. I believe it was the first and maybe only time they also sold the GE name. GE hasn't made appliances or light bulbs in years.

Thanks. Good to know. You would think, perhaps, whoever makes the appliances would try some advertising.
