    Same experience with Samsung here. We also had a fridge, which had a few problems under warranty but once those were fixed it made it 14 years before some plastic piece cracked and started leaking in the interior. That seems to be more the exception than the rule for them though.

    My lg washer dryer perform well but had problems after 6 years. But we go through a fuckton of laundry (probably 60 loads/month).

    Dryer drum cracked and it also needed new rollers. Washer needed new shocks and suspension, springs needed lubrication.

    Wasn’t too hard to diy repair; even though it wasn’t difficult I had to almost completely disassemble the dryer, so be warned. If you ever replace the washer shocks make sure you cover the access panel with a towel and/or wear protective gloves (my hand slipped and I sliced it bad enough to need 3 stitches).

      I’ve had some experience changing fuses out of the Samsung dryer which required taking out the entire drum. Pain in the ass. Thank god for YouTube!

      Thankfully I haven’t hard to replace those items you listed. Fingers crossed.
