Can relate to the feeling of hurt
With all of that being said about the Maytag 9200, it brings back another subject. It has been discussed on here several times. But, have to get a skeleton out of the closet once again.
The delivery personnell from places like Sears, The Orange, The blue, and even most mom and pops have next to no brains or consideration for old appliances. To them they are just plain junk. Have been brave over the past 10 years and have confronted some of them from time to time (back when I was really collecting) and you cannot even get them to tell you where, how, who, etc. etc. etc. these old machines are being taken. It's a dead subject. Like I said, no brains and will not communicate on such. For the most part, they are very ugly and mean about it. Always in a bad mood. Even tried to treat $$$$$ them if they would turn me on to something considered junk to them .
Anyway, very sorry and wish you could find out "WHO" Hate it about the Kenmore as well.
