It looks like I have to replace my 15 year old washing
machine. I briefly looked some options. The top loading
model sells for about $600 while this new front loading
model sells for about $1000. I understand that these
new types use less water, electricity, and soap. for
you average family of three, how long would it take to
make up the difference of $400. Are these new machines
proven ? What is the life expectancy of it ? Not sure
whether or not the difference will be worth it. Maybe I
would save more by replacing my electric dryer with a
gas model....
