I wish i was so lucky I went a bought the most expensive washer in the store (

they have changed it out 3 times and now my waranty is out.My door latch went
bad
and blew a resister in the main board $ 200 just for parts . I wonder why they
can't make the same washers as the one you have .Why change it if it works.
How old is it? I just went through a blown control board. The
warranty on parts for nearly everything is 10 years. I told the
service center what was wrong and they just handed me the parts. No
questions asked. I was impressed by their customer service.
I agree that anything you pay that much for should last longer than it
does. I had the same rational. The neptune was supposed to be "the
best" washer out there. I bought the LED model over the "better" LCD
model as that seemed to complicated. It is still only a washing
machine.
The bottom line is, it's electronic. It will fail. The old models
are seem like they are built like tanks because they have three major
components and no electronics. There is nothing to go wrong with
them. If that's what you want, go buy the cheapest toploading washer
you can find. It will have a motor, a pump, a simple timer switch and
the tub. That is all. It probably will last forever.
