Recall of exploding washing machines



meanwhile, all my 1985 maytag set does is work, work work.




every.

single.

time.

like a swiss clock.

and with simple maintenance should last another 50+ years.


planned obsolescence? nah. not possible.

Bruh, it's got a door within a door where I can add things after I've already started a load. So what if I have to spend $1500 on a new one every 5 years?

I actually bought a new washer and dryer last week. The salesman at Lowes told me not to get the Samsung because they explode. I got the Whirlpool.

There's absolutely no reason to digitize something as simple as a fricking washing machine. It's so stupid what they've done to appliances these days.

I guess I got lucky with my Samsung washer and dryer, going strong for 7 years. (Hopefully it doesn't bite the dust after this post )

4 years ago we bought a new house. Had been using all older appliances that were given to us. My wife wanted all new everything for the new house.. furniture, washer, dryer, etc. Bought a new set of MayTags and they do great but the new energy saving stuff makes them take like 80-90 minutes for a regular load of clothes. Our old units were like 25-30 minutes. I do miss that about them.

You want to sell your 1985 machine???

All of my 2000 model Maytags in my rental house are running like champs.

My late-1980s GE combo unit that came with my apartment works great, only problem with it is that it's too small.

We had an old one like your Maytag until recently. Loved it. But, it finally broke down and we got a new one (it would have been more expensive to fix the old one).

Hate it with all the settings, it's digital, etc. I miss the old one.

My Samsung refrigerator was a giant piece of shite. Left it when you sold my house. I'll never have another Samsung appliance.

I had to replace a circuit board on my washing machine because the water line above it sprang a little leak and ruined it. Even if you insist on putting a circuit board in the washing machine in the first place, why the frick would you place it directly beneath a water line.

$150.
