The Bic Pen of clothes dryers...
My 5 year old fairly top of the line dryer quit working this morning... It cost $89 to have someone come out and take a look at it. For that $89 I get a date (Friday) but I can't even get a window of when before possibly tomorrow.
I can replace the sucker for $375 - a discontinued but totally new not top of the line but perfectly functional dryer.
I wonder if it does not make more sense to cancel the repair and just get the new one.
Given that today's dryers have a life span of 5-7 years...
