Short story long:
Our washing machine died two days ago and the clothes & frustration are piling up. Between the service call and possible costs of replacing parts, I don't think it is worth it to throw $100s at a 10+ y.o. machine in hopes to get it limping along for a few more years. (opinions on this may vary)
Anywho: Anyone in the industry or recently go through this?
It must be a large-capacity machine - we wash a lot of blankets, sleeping bags, etc.
We currently have top-load and are perfectly happy with that.
Stacking isn't an option, but a front load would be fine if there is a legitimate reason to go that direction.
Are there any must-have features for a family of four with two dogs?
Is the Steam Wash that so many push worth the money?
With all the different wash cycles and trademarked terms on these things (turbowash, jetwash, hydro-klean, allergy wash, blah blah blah) I am a bit confused.
Please help!
