If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

We went with a Samsung. I can hopefully pick it up tomorrow afternoon. Good deal. They all suck. I had repaired an older washer a few times. Paid a repairman once and an electrical surge put the nail in that coffin. Fried the computer = totaled. The GE was Made in USA. Had a 10yr warranty on transmission but shocker...that is likely the last thing to fail. It was big. Had everything we were looking for but it couldn't stay balanced with heavy or light loads and would shut down mid cycle. They are made very cheap and not to last. Govt has restricted how much water they can use so hard to get your clothes clean. I forget what brand ours is, maybe LG?, but we've gotten to where we pour a little extra water in there at the beginning of the cycle to make sure it spits out enough water to get our clothes completely wet.

This is a little off subject, but I have a 29 yr. old air conditioner. Still in the box type format. Original to when I built the house in 1992. Do I replace it with a more efficient unit that are made cheaper or stay with old one still working. ![](https://i.imgur.com/twZOSG4.jpg) I'm sure it's not nearly as efficient as a new model would be, but I would keep it as long as it was dependable and there are parts available for it. You'll never get a new one to last 29 years.
