I bought a used GE washer 5 years ago that was 8-10 years old at the time (for 60$). It still works fine and has required nothing more than a new belt (plus some minor dismantling when I overloaded it and a pair of gym shorts got sucked down the drain - my fault entirely). My newer gas dryer has also behaved fine. GE has another advantage in their self-help answer "hotline", and the wide assortment of replacement parts they sell with clear instructions. Definite advantages for the do-it-yourselfer. Bob Schleicher ihuxk!rs55611
