Everyone wants to buy a washer, but nobody really wants to change their washer. The good news is that the washer you got from your parents is just fine- and you can expect it to work well for years and years. But if it were really that simple, you wouldn't be watching this video. So what are your options? Do you fix it? Do you buy a new one? And what do these machines even do anyways? This is the first installment in our series about keeping your clothing clean, fresh and socks separate for only $80 a year.

WOW. My washer was new in 1992. I still have it. And I don't plan to get rid of it after seeing these new washers. I'll just keep fixing it for 20 to 30 bucks every 3 to 5 years.

I have both a early 2000's Kenmore 70 series washer and also a 2010 Kenmore compact stack unit. Both of these are the old school direct drive and clean clothes fantastically. I won't ever part with them. It's well worth spending the money to repair them if they break down. I know many people with various types of the HE/Energy Star washers that absolutely loathe them and deeply regret purchasing them.

We loathe them because they take too long to clean, aren't built well with quality parts like the vintage machines, and they break down more frequently. What is to love?

I bought a new large capacity top load Kenmore washing machine with agitator in 2018. I bought a Kenmore dryer at the same time. They both work great, but the silver/gray area behind the control dials/knobs has some kind of spotting that almost looks like mold. I can’t figure out what it is and nothing I’ve tried so far will remove it. Any info on this would be appreciated. Thanks.

Depending on low size and final spin speed, it can take up 2 minutes for the basket to come to a complete stop.

During the final spin, the washer spins the load at variable spin speeds in order to protect clothing,

Once the lid is locked, these washers work differently by sensing an out of balance load.

Be sure to dilute with water, just to the top of the dispenser.

No the corporations sold out to the lure of outsourcing -- more profit for them. They don't WANT to make a machine that lasts, they've conspired tomake machines that break down so you the consumer have to buy a new one more often. Plus the new machines are poorly engineered.
