I wonder if they include the age of the machines into this. I think a cheap machine would sooner be replaced than a more expensive one. This could lead to a lower repair rate for cheaper washers. Suppose both a Roper and an F&P machine have to be repaired after say three years. If the Roper is replaced by a new one and the F&P is repaired, does this mean the F&P has a higher repair rate? Just wondering.

Louis, you're probably right. It has been some years since I last responded to a yearly questionnaire, but replacement probably does not equal repair. Thus my 12-year-old KitchenAid toploader would be downgraded for having the drive coupler replaced (at a cost of about $16), whereas it would have gotten a higher rating for being replaced at 11 years, having had no repairs.
