On the other hand, a broken appliance is a real let-down. I have this thing that was working, and now I have (laundry/vacuuming/dishes/food) piling up and I have to fix this immediately.

Totally - this is one of the reasons I had to learn to fix them. When you've got 3 kids, the washing machine or dryer being broken is an emergency, God forbid a couple of days of backlog laundry pile up!

At least with the dishwasher you can just switch to hand washing, doing the same with clothes is a much bigger pain.
