Yeah, any of the major brands had good days and bad days. I have some old RCA, Zenith, Philco, etc. that are built like tanks. All those companies made some dogs.
Midwest, now there was a company that artificially pumped up the tube count in their radios using useless tubes. There was one where they used 6 volt tubes and lined them up in series with about 4 voltage dropping ballast tubes that did nothing but waste power. They could have used a 6V transformer. They did a lot of stuff like that. Even Midwest, though, made some great sets.
