In general, it's far more economical and eco-friendly to repair an appliance than to replace it. Not only, throwing away an appliance creates waste, but some materials in these appliances can be harmful to the environment. Furthermore, it incurs additional costs of delivery and installation.

There are a number of things that could cause this problem, including, but not limited to overloading your washer/dryer. If the unit is problematic even with small loads, we recommend trying Kellett Shake Away™ pads.

Generally older appliances are more durable and long-lasting than the newer products being made today. Modern models have wonderful features, but they do need more maintenance and repair than their older counterparts. It's wise to get an estimate for repair before replacing it. The general rule to follow is for the repair not to exceed 35% of the total replacement cost. The replacement cost includes; product, tax, delivery, and extraction of the old appliance.
