    Maytag Hinges

    Why on earth did they ever stop using them? Why would they want a washers hinges to last a lifetime, and to NEVER rust out, and cause breakage. Big companies don't make money that way. You won't pay to fix, or get the customer to buy new if they last and have purpose like those little lid balls...
