A lot will depend on the anticipated use.  You will have to pay top
dollar today to get anything that will last near as long.  We bought a combo
unit based on the two of us and MIL.  The first year we also had a
daughter/SIL and grandson, then the third year we had another daughter plus
three kids.  The medium duty machines will not last much longer.  I am
letting the warranty expire on them with plans to replace when needed with
top line - probably foreign - units, but I will expect to pay a lot more for
them.
        The old ones lasted a lot longer than a standard unit will today,
unless you get a top line one.

Subject: [MBZ] dryer repair advice

i bought my house in outstanding condition.  it was owned by an old woman
who paid to keep up every element of the property.  like many old school
people, however, she never replaced anything, but fixed stuff.  so
everything on the house is about 30 years old.

i sent the kid down to the garage to take my clothes out of the dryer.  she
reported them still wet.  so i told her add time.  and hour later, still
wet.  add more time.  an hour later, still wet.  so now i go investigate.
turns out the cylinder no longer spins and my limited wardrobe is soaked

1.  does this sound like an easy fix?
2.  does this sound like a fix i ought not undertake but should hire someone
to do for me?
3.  does it sound insane to fix a 30 year old dryer, so just throw it out
and get another one?
4.  do i just convince my mom to get me some ventless combination
washer/dryer and just keep it in the kitchen and shut down the wasteful
large garage setup?
