My washer is back to acting up and not spin drying out all the water. Sigh….

It CAN spin out, so loose belt? Maybe a screw gone that holds spindle things tight?
Personally -- I'd pull the panels and check those things before spending on a new one
. Nothing to lose but $

You gotta take the whole darn thing apart. No taking the back off for easy access. I needed a belt for the dryer, had to buy a kit, belt and new wheels for the tub to tumble on. Had to take off everything BUT the back. “Friend” repair deal, $180. It lasted a few more months before it quit all together. So I’m of the mind to take the repair bill money, skip the repair and put it towards a new one.

Our Kenmore front loader that we bought from the sellers of this house, went on a noisy spree. Called the appliance repair. He said that we needed new struts, and that it'd be about $500+. A new washer exactly like what we have, runs about $800+.
After him telling us that and charging us $159, I ordered the struts and hubs and son put them on. $225 for the materials and Free for the labor. Mom does the laundry, so they made sure to get it done properly!!

My thoughts, too. I disassembled my dryer, twice, to try to fix. The ten minute simple job takes me a couple hours. I'm not experienced, no longer flexible, and both washer and dryer are in the hallway to the "back" door. There is no room to manoeuver.
There's a wall behind me.
The hallway is so narrow all appliances must go through the front door!

We are getting some of our August temps in June. It was 98 today and supposed to be about the same tomorrow. Our herding dogs that are mostly pets usually sleep in our porch but it is hot enough tonight that they will sleep in the house. Maisy and Mel are dealing OK with the heat but I'm happy that we got their hair cuts.
