The Short Life Span of Appliances Nowadays

Dave, I salute you. Appliance parts can be troublesome to source these days—supply chain Issues—so it’s great that you can channel that inner MacGyver.

My MacGyver is very out. No hiding inside for him.

That’s so annoying @bmorecupcake!

Had a Speed Queen forever - absolutely stellar appliance, but almost as noisy as a chain saw. Got mine back in the 80’s, maybe they’re quieter now @Auspicious.

I’ll throw this out there in case anyone is having trouble with Samsung ice makers or their refrigerators in general.

Actually, turns out we had 5 years of warranty on that Samsung range. I must have given them the information for the washing machine or another appliance. Just received a notice that our warranty is expiring soon. Thankfully, the part only cost $25 and 30 minutes to install.

I sold appliances for a few years and…all ice makers break.
