For 16 years this pair has tirelessly served me at my beck and call. No complaints when I loaded them down with dirty dog beds or large quilts. They put up with my abuse; accidentally ripping a knob off with some piece of clothing or changing detergent without explanation, or what ever item I threw in them including tennis shoes. The washing machine probably could have agitated on for a bit, but the dryer had given up on its duties taking me about 4 hours to dry a load. So patiently with Martin's budgeting abilities we saved up for the new set which cost about 3 times what I paid for this sturdy pair. So with sadness I watched what was
familiar and easy to use get loaded on a truck this afternoon. It was nothing short of a miracle that the new set could be delivered the day after I purchased it. I really haven't had time to adjust to the idea of these newcomers.
Look at these two, they mock me. Eyes wide open, it just about takes a special license to operate them. No more plain old detergent or dryer sheets, I bow to the monthly careful maintenance in hopes that these two can last even half as long as my other trusty pair. OK, I will attempt to read the manual, and head to the store for that special HE detergent and let the washing begin. Boy these two better be good.
