Re: Did Not Need This!
Stacks can be expensive. If there is any way you could go with separate units, go for it, but I understand when there is limited space. So far, so good. I've been buying Whirlpool for decades. We get great use out of them and so far I've been able to fix each one myself, although they seldom fail.

The tech today DID recommend Whirlpool, however, after a brief search online; capacity/size might be an issue with the Whirlpool.
I had a GE once before with no issues. Might get another because I like the size and I'm familiar with it's functions.
This time though, I would pay for the extended warranty, ( which I never do on anything cause I think it's a rip off ), but maybe not in this case.
Appreciate your input!

^^^^^^
We bought all new appliances for the kitchen and laundry in 2016. My wife agreed to an extended warranty while I was not in earshot and when she told me it was $1300.00 I was not too happy. The salesman told me that after the five years were gone any balance from the $1300.00 would be a store credit for us. That helped somewhat. Fast forward to today, shortly after the factory one year warranty expired we had the dryer, microwave and fridge repaired to the tune of way over the original $1300.00 paid for the extended warranty. Fridge and micro are Frigidaire Professional series and the dryer is a Samsung. Fridge has had several ice maker problems and the last repair the tech completely replaced the entire ice maker. No problem since. Micro had to have the door replaced that contains all the brains for it. Can’t remember the dryer problem but something had to be replaced. My wife has had the opportunity to give me the ole’ “told you so” many times....... extended warranty expired in March of this year so hang on baby....

Yup. Our dryer just croaked. 3 yrs old. Told the wife a clothesline will last forever and is energy efficient.

Re: Did Not Need This!
I can understand. Had to replace a washer, a few years back. After a couple of years, it would not drain. Looked online and called a serviceman, and placed a service call with the manufacturer. Come to find drain line clogged with hairpins. Cancelled the service call. Cleared the line and things have been okay. The serviceman that I called gave some guidance. I was not able to thank him though. I think he moved on.

Re: Did Not Need This!
Actually a Clothesline works great, lol.
We have both. Not only saves Electricity, but keeps wear and tear off the Dryer. When the Washer finally quit after about 12-15 years, the Dryer was still fine, but we switched both anyway. Where they are located is a real pain to get at.
