What brand and model washer/dryer should I recommend to my daughter in law who is hours away

[ncpapaul]

I can keep mine, daughters, mother in laws direct drive whirlpool/kenmore washers and dryers going but now my daughter in law/son/grandson's newer non-direct drive units are going bad. What brand/models should I recommend to them if they are going to have to go to Lowe's or Home Depot? Thank you, Paul

Every top loader except a Speed Queen TC5003 is an under designed piece of junk. If you want new, this is the way to go. Otherwise, get an LG front loader as they have the best package of reliability, performance, and options.

Used Speed Queen top loaders made in the last 15-ish years with a mechanical timer are a great deal with much better flexibility and options vs the new ones made from 2018 to the present.
