The cheap washers are not $650, that's still an expensive washer. The cheapest new washers are more like $350. And probably not any less reliable that the $650 washer, just less neat buttons, no glass top. Yeah, probably less reliable than the speed queen.

Hoses are quite the racket. Because of where I put the washer, I had to get extra long ones.
