Which brand of electric water heater is better?
Which electric water heater do you think is better - HD's GE, Lowe's Whirlpool or Kenmore?
My husband and I are going to replace ours ourselves since having a professional do it is soooo expensive(we've done it before). We just aren't sure which is the better model. I was told by a plumber not to go with these mass market models because they are designed for everyone in general but for the price they have the best warranty so they can't be that bad.
Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated.

Since you are going to install it yourself, the range of brands is limited. There aren't really that many manufacturers but they produce them under many names. If you are happy with the warranty, then the next thing to check is the energy efficiency. This is listed on the yellow and black sticker on the side of the unit. Good luck.
