I spent the money for a new Maytag that was supposed to be the cat's meow, thinking it would have the same quality and reliability. wrong. Two repairs in the first 5 years and still not right. <br /><br />It sounds like you definitely had a victory with your repair. It sounds like the repairman was topnotch.punkinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00484602864393297202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2443300355315157565.post-50886825272759809132009-12-03T14:30:55.849-08:002009-12-03T14:30:55.849-08:00We like our Maytag Neptunes.

In fact, we liked ours so much that we told other people and now pretty much everyone we know now sports matched sets at their houses.<br /><br />Can't borrow their old top loaders for felting cycles any more.sheep#100https://www.blogger.com/profile/04207640881710412597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2443300355315157565.post-73772177684348640832009-12-03T13:48:11.651-08:002009-12-03T13:48:11.651-08:00Even more justification, if I needed any, to not w...Even more justification, if I needed any, to not wear underwire bras. [I can't. Believe me I've tried.] My current victory is finding a prompt, cheerful outfit to haul off the leaves from our 47 very large trees, for a very small price.

I had chronic sinus infections while we had it, didn't figure out that was what was causing it until we got rid of it.<br /><br />The top loader has none of these issues and we think it does a better job at cleaning. So they are still good machines.<br /><br />Plus they work much better for felting knitting and crocheting. ;-)Fibra Artystahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15121605078535663853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2443300355315157565.post-14479374748815215892009-12-03T12:39:17.153-08:002009-12-03T12:39:17.153-08:00I hate when our machines go down and it's happ...I hate when our machines go down and it's happened a few times over the past 3 years. My mom's machine is 26 years old (with almost daily use!) and works great so I go over there in between our broken-down-money-guzzling repairs.<br />Good to hear you had a victory in the washer department!!Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13816016965260849057noreply@blogger.com
