    Are these new Roper or new Whirlpool dryers any good? Which is better?

    Seems a bit old.....would something that old be worth getting even if free? I imagine parts may not be available. Here's another one. It is a Kenmore but owner doesn't know year. Asking $125.00...looks like it might be ancient too.

    Are these new Roper or new Whirlpool dryers any good? Which is better?

    Would it be large enough for two person household? Could it do blankets? Someone is giving it away.....assuming it's still there.....Can you tell the age from the picture, or an estimate?

    Are these new Roper or new Whirlpool dryers any good? Which is better?

    Thanks for the links...but I'm in Athens...it does seem as if a lot of washer dryers are available just south of Atlanta.....I saw the old Kenmore, and if it was closer, would have looked at it....or if I had a truck or van.....

    Are these new Roper or new Whirlpool dryers any good? Which is better?

    Unfortunately, there are almost no used dryers near me on craig's list. Look everyday, and nothing comparable to my Kenmore washer. It looks like buying a new Whirlpool Dryer is likely to be the only option. Per Good-Shepard's post, maybe with the one-year factory warranty and the one year Visa...

    buying an older non-control board washing machine

    I got the weight for the washer from the manual, 315lbs....but didn't factor in water and clothes.....so, clothes subtract 10lbs or so, a little over 8lbs per gallon of water I think, couldn't find the maximum amount of water in the machine at a given time, during use...the seller kept making a...

    Maytag Commercial Grade residential Washer-Opinions

    So, just bought an 18 year old, 2002, Kenmore 22422100 super capacity washer, that supposedly works, for $125.00 delivered. Had to rush it while wife was distracted....looks pretty good, no one threw a fit. The "super capacity" seems to have placated her for now. Any recommendations, if any, on...

    Maytag Commercial Grade residential Washer-Opinions

    Based on the linked thread, it seems the Maytag Commercial Grade washer is not a good bet for the money.......It is Model #MVWP576KW listed on lowes website. What is odd is, the Lowes model has only a one year parts and labor warranty with the ten year drive warranty while the same "commecial...

    Maytag Commercial Grade residential Washer-Opinions

    Does anybody know whether the Maytag Commercial Grade residential top loader washer, as sold at Lowes, is any good? Any experience, opinions? It was tough trying to track down warranty info, some places said 5 year parts and labor, and a further five years on the drive and tub, but on the Loews...

    buying an older non-control board washing machine

    It sounds like just putting something in the tub (pillows, cardboard, foam) to apply sufficient pressure so it can't move would work for moving.......The washer I was going to buy had to go down two flights of steep stairs, weighed about 300 pounds, and the only "pro" movers who gave me a quote...

    buying an older non-control board washing machine

    Tha part I was looking for was the "moving kit", I don't have the part # in front of me, but it is no longer available.....As mentioned above, there were many other parts not available. I'd assume any part in a washing machine would serve some useful/necessary function....one part's suppler...

    buying an older non-control board washing machine

    Thanks for replying. I figured the Roper would be safe regarding finding parts due to Whirlpool....don't know enough about washers to determine whether the parts not-available are one's that are necessary to keep a machine going.....or even what they do...but there seemed to be a surprisingly...

    buying an older non-control board washing machine

    I've been looking for an older non-control board direct drive washing machine...was going to buy a 2002 Roper made by Whirlpool, but while trying to find a part, which is no longer available, I noticed a lot of parts were listed as not available. Is there a cutoff year where parts are still...

    Moving Roper 2002 top loader washing machine

    Does anyone know what a Roper top loader from 2002 used to stabilize the washer drum during a move? I'm picking one up and at the moment don't have a model #.....From what i've found online it may have used a shipping bolt.....which i'd have to get...
