Broken washing machine

we had a kenmore that lasted 19 years. now we have a Roper we purchased the end of 2009.

We have a Bosch front loader washer and a dryer. The spin cycle on the washer is loud (we call it out plane in the garage ready to take off!), and yeah sometimes the clothes come out in a tangled mess, but that's easily fixed by just reducing the spin cycle to a slower spin. Good luck!

Being a retired GE employee I can buy GE or HOTPOINT at a huge discount. I would recommend the LG front loader since my research tells me they are a best buy. I will forgo my discount the next go around even though I have had no issues with my 7 year old GE washer and dryer.

You're all crazy. Top loader is the best. you can't sleep comfortably in a front loader and the door doesn't close behind you when you crawl in like the top loader does. A top load washer is the best choice for a bedroom. ~ Pua

We bought the front load Frigidaire Affinity set a few years ago. We have really enjoyed those machines. We bought the drawers to go underneath and the height is perfect! The washer does use less water, but I can't tell you how much and it spins out so much more water than my old top load machine that the dryer operates much more efficiently.

What I'd really like to get is a nice washer/dryer combo. They have them literally one machine now where you just load it and it does everything in one and they are front loading. Someday will replace the drier with that then Pua wont need to be moved on laundry day but her bedroom would still need to be run for self cleaning at least once a week. She has a bed wetting issue but don't tell her I told you.

They're not really terribly expensive if I can find one locally to avoid shipping costs maybe this Christmas.
