It looks like the Cabrio and Kitchenaid set are no longer available. I am now considering a Maytag set but am curious if this is too new to be a dependable care, can anyone help? Thank you! |

And stay away from the dreaded Amanatags too. They have the SAV model numbers. If you want a dependable washer, get a mid 80's Maytag true dependable care washer. There are a ton of them out there. Kind of boring, but will last forever. Then of course, there is the Fridgidaire 1-18 too. |

A neighbor had this model and it blew out the bearings within 3 years (or was it less time?) sounded like a freight train when spinning. I'm guessing water leaks displaced the lubrication. |

Can anybody tell if this is a dependable care washer/dryer set like the Maytags that were built to last? |

yes it is!! The last rendition of them. It has varibale water level, 3 speed combos, and 3 temp combos. And 2nd rinse option. A secretary at work, with my assistance, actually bought htis model at a Maytag store. it was in their Performa line and was the only porcelain-tub model in the Performa line at the time. It's pretty much very similar to a 1994 dependable care.
