Testimony such as "I owned my XXX brand washer for 20 years and it
never broke", does not really help as everybody has cheapened out
since then.

The only other possible testimony would be "I've owned my XXX brand
washer for two months and it never broke" and that wouldn't help you
much, either! Personally, I'd look for *simple.* That means no
electronic display/control panel.

Yeah, mechanical timers and unsealed switches NEVER fail. Especially
in a humid environment. Sheesh.

Sure they fail. And the average Joe can fix them. I'd rather fix
something once every two years than buy new every two years because the
thing *can't* be economically repaired.

Anyway, my washing machine is fifteen years old and the only thing I've
had to replace was the lid switch. Sheesh.
