I had to replace the washing machine that I bought in 2018 this week. The agitator broke already. The repairman wanted almost 300 bucks so I said screw it and bought a new one.

I remember big toilets before our masters in DC decided to force them to be smaller.

Get used to it. We live in a throw away society so if ypu het more tgan 4 years out of a major appliance, consider yourself lucky.

They did the same thing with dishwashers. They still don’t get it...most of us rinse/wash off the dishes before they go in the dishwasher. I basically use it for sterilizing.

“resident Joe Biden’s climate change-obsessed Department of Energy (DOE) was wrong”

Kinda’ doubt they are obsessed over global warming, they just want huge payouts the DC way as those crooks get filthy rich first while the courts eventually knock their rules down.

Repair guys are a scam. They charge $100 bucks to show up, then basically tell you to fix the problem will cost more than it’s worth you go out and buy a new machine and they pocket $100 bucks for 20 minute of examining the appliance.

Last one I called did this song and dance… told me the repair would be $300. Went online and found the part for $25 and replaced it in 10 minutes

I remember my Grandmother’s Maytag refrigerator from the 1950’s. We moved her to a retirement home in 85’ and it was still chugging along.

“it is unclear that the DOE has any statutory authority to regulate water use in dishwashers and clothes washers.”

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the line that will strike fear into the midsections (they have no hearts -- or minds) of every liberal in government agencies today.

This clip with Tucker Carlson shows that he understands what is unfolding.

That’s the way it is these days. Cost too much to repair, may as well buy another and junk the old one. Quality is out the window. Lucky if you get 5 years out of any appliance.

Much of this nonsense will go away when the SCOTUS gets rid of the Chevron deference later this year.

Well, Praise the Lord, that there are some SANE judges out there.

I was beginning to think we lived in Rabbit Hole somewhere Colorado.

Let the customer decide and not a bureaucrat.
