Our washer died a sad death today complete with water spurting all over our basement floor. Thankfully, I didn't realize it until the last load of laundry for the week was FINISHED :phew and thankfully, we do all our laundry on the weekends :rolleyes
DH does all the work on our apliances and thinks it's time to say goodbye to this one. He feels we've put enough money into this one and it's time for a new one.
I am not sure where to start researching. Dh wants a front loading HE washer and I am tickled pink at the thought :rockon
But I want to be sure we get a reliable one. I think my mom's has needed work several times in the first 2 years she's owned hers :think
We don't need bells and whistles like delayed start or anything. Just your basics -- hot, warm, and cold wash. Delicate cycle. Option for single or double rinse.
Also, what is the scoop on front loaders and cloth diapers? Is it possible to do your diapers in front loaders or not? I don't even have anyone in cloth diapers at the moment but feel we need to know this!
Oh and what are average prices. We are hoping to go to Sears outlet center but I would like to do some research before walking in. WHat's a good outlet center discount off of "sticker" price? I am a little nervous about all this. It seems like such a huge buy :nails
