Don’t they make the laundromat washers? They’re hard core.

I’ve got an engine from a 1927 Maytag washing machine that still runs 🤠

My last washing machine before I bought the Speed Queen died after exactly 5 years and 4 months.

Which means even if I would have purchased the 5 year warranty it would have been wasted money.

A circuit board in the controls failed....$350 for a new one...couple hundred dollars more would get a brand new washer.

That circuit board probably costs $20 to manufacture.

I swear appliances these days are deliberately engineered to fail just after the warranty expires.
