  I have purchased fridges at Costco and never been disappointed. Currently I have two: one in the main kitchen, and one in the adjacent kitchen (it's in the unheated area). Both function perfectly, for about 10 years or more.  

  I studied entomology in college so wasps don't get me worried. It's easy enough to rid a washer or dryer of insects.

  The question that occurs to me, is:   Would the Speed Queen run any better than the Filter Flo?

  1) First and Third examples look identical.   2) It all looks like ... well ... spare parts ...  

  OK, a total of nine washers and dryers in the workshop building... three Bosch... all, AFAIK, still work... or they did when I put them out there about 10-20 years ago...

  Make that three older Bosch front loaders... for a total of nine washers and some dryers...    

  PS: I *think* I still have the original washer/dryer that came with the property. It's in the workshop building.   Just checked... yup, it's still there, along with a number of other interesting appliances... washers and dryers... including three older Bosch front loaders... [this post was...

  I've been running a Maytag Neptune washer and dryer for some 23+ years now. No major problems. Of course the washer is a front loader.      

    Wow, Oakland. I'm right next door to that. Unfortunately, I have no need for a another washer. But I'm sure somebody does.  

    It's not hot enough here in NorCal (East Bay) to worry about temps.

    I donno. I love dishwashers.

    Never been a Dr. Pepper fan. In fact, I haven't drunk any soda for at least a decade. At least that I can recall. For me it's beer, and even with that I have greatly reduced consumption for the last 10 or more years.   Whatever!

    I can't remember the last time I bought soda...   And, since my coffee maker failed last week, I'm fine without coffee, either. Don't know if I'll get it fixed...  

    Here in Northern California, we don't get hurricanes. We do get the occasional earthquake, about every five to ten years or so. Those can be destructive, but so far, so good.  

    So here I'm wondering if it's possible to wrap the loud dishwashers with some sort of insulation to minimize the din.   Just a thought.   Of course the wrapping might cause other problems, but if it's really loud it might be worth it.
