I own a 20 year old dryer still going strong, and 40 year old washer, still going strong. If it's a lot over 5 years old, it just may have been built to last. and not built as a disposable itemYou are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS!

normiss 898 #28 August 22, 2012 Agreed. Being handy and able to maintain appliances saves a ton of cash. I've seen some friends spend $3000 for a pair of the new fangled ones....simply replacing the defective part would save ass loads of cash. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My only question is: how much did the "free power" set you back? How many years will it take to break even? Here in the States, it's still a pretty expensive proposition. Hopefully, getting better all the time, but not yet there for me.lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
