The obvious solution to this problem is to buy laundry equipment with
conventional electro-mechanical controls. (Assuming they're still made.)
My
GE washer and dryer are over 10 years old, and I expect them to last at
least another 15.


I recently saw on Craig's List one Whirlpool/Kenmore direct-drive top load
washer for free that said it needed a new clutch. I saw another one for
free that said it needed a new motor. Either of these are easy repairs on a
direct-drive. If I had room to store them I would have gotten them for my
daughters (if they ever move out).


If you collect enough of them, your daughters will HAVE to move out!
;-)

Hell, you can swap daughters for appliances. ;^)
