Patti, I hope the new machine has a very long healthy life! It's a shame how much time we spend having to research, fix, hassle with these items that are suppose to make our lives easier :rolleyes:

Thanks Yorkiesmiles, ME TOO :)

I tell you what, it is as noisy as all get out, lets me know it's doing it's thing and I absolutely love it cause it is WORKING
:happyboun :happyboun

Jack likes quiet appliances, the Kitchen Aide (his chose at that time) was definately toooooo quiet, was mostly out of function :eek: Besides it being replaced for the second time, it just had toooo many bad memories for me, I wouldn't waste time nor money getting it fixed.

Jack commented about how noisy this one is, I told him yeppers it sounds great, love it, love it, love it. First time use out performed the other one from day one :) the other one was double the cost of this one too. It may be noisy but it don't dance either :D I think my choice was a good one, also upon loading and unloading the clothes there is enough room to not keep banging my arm on the agitator :happyboun

Patti and I think Jack will say me too :ladywinks

Patti - I couldn't agree more
 

Patti, I couldn't agree with you more. When we had our home built I bought top of the line appliances from Sears. The GE Profile Convection Double Oven and MayTag Refrigerator are both a piece of junk. The ice maker on the refrigerator never worked properly and after several attempts to repair the service man finally admitted that the problem was an engineering flaw and it would never work. Sears finally agreed to replace the refrigerator but we had to produce the original receipt, which we could not find. That was totally rediculious because they had the whole transaction on-line.

The oven also had an engineering flaw -- the oven vented so that the heat went directly on the control panel causing it to overheat. We had intermittent problems with the oven until out house fire finally "took it out". The electrical outlets on our back porch was on the same circuit as my kitchen lights (go figure) and when the wires on the back porch burned it caused a surge in the panel and totally destroyed the oven. The parts to repair the oven were going to cost almost $900 so in the end we replaced the oven.

Funny thing when Ron and I first married I purchased a used MayTag Washer and Dryer (they were about 15 years old) and used them for another 11 years and moved them from Detroit to Alburquerque to Georgia before they finally died.
