For some reason, all women want a front load washer and dryer these days.. So if your wife is hassling you for one. This deal is tough to beat.



Most men want them too...

BTW.. the "front load" dryers (besides all dryers being front load pretty much) Are just $200 more because they "Match" the front load washer.

So you are paying about 30% more because of the "look"

any experience with repair service on lg appliances?

i have been told by some stores and also by an independent appliance servicer that it is hard to find service for lg appliances ... lg does not have their own service network set up except in a few places

My electric power utility offers a $50 rebate for one of these LG front loading washers.

Does anybody know if there are any rebates available for JCPL (NJ)for front loaders? I can't find anything online..

So anyone has a LG? Any comments? I guess there is no rebate or gift cert for Maytag.

I just bought a Whirlpool Duet this past Saturday for $944 (MSRP $1009). Whirlpool has a larger capacity drum (3.8 cu. ft. v. 3.7 for LG). Other than that, they look very similar, in terms of features.

Is it the same whirlpool as the one they sell at costco...

Actually whirlpool and maytag are almost the same price. Somehow I thought Maytag would be more expensive.

I will definitly second the link provided by lecco, to the laundry forum on ths.gardenweb.com.

We also went with the Bosch pair, although the original one not the new tilted drum design. Ours is about 2.5 years old now and we couldn't be happier.

About detergent, we use "he" detergent from Sears, specially since the big drum is on sale all the time and are happy with it. Costco has also started selling "he" versions of its detergent recently, though we have yet to try it.

While at it, those who don't know, do check your washer manuals, since most front loaders advice against using clorine bleaches (not that you need to bleach with a front loader ).

but I found this website that has a lot of reviews on different dryer/washer, check them out:

Personally I went with the Siemens (Bosch) washer/dryer because BB was running a $150 GC promo and I picked up the set as open box and saved me ~$600 plus 2 years 0% financing. check out your local BB for open box items!

I was waiting for someone to mention that!!!!


ETA: Enterkey, just sign up at a couple of the places on Dealpass, or in this case, three different places, and for the initial 1500 outlay as outlined in the Op's deal, he'd save almost 300 more in addition to his awesome deal.
I see, I guss that would work.

I guess we just have to deal with 60 $25 GC cards....!!
