Picking out a new washer/dryer...Who knew it could be so complicated?!

Washing clothes should be a simple chore, right?

Just throw the clothes in the washer with a scoop of my handmade detergent,

push start and wait for the cycle to end so I can hang my fresh laundry on the line.?

 

Well, that's fine and dandy until you go to replace your old washer/dryer combo because the old washer decides to start oiling your clothes and the 29 year old dryer's knob falls off.

 

Who knew there would be so many choices in the store now?

Should I get a front-loader?  A top loader with an agitator?  Top loader without an agitator?

All these decisions made my head spin.

I don't like too many choices, that's why I buy almost all my groceries at Aldi. :)

 

So, after reading all the pros/cons on online reviews, I chose....

Big surprise here...

I chose the old tried and true top loading machine with an agitator.

Mostly because I hate changes (almost as much as I hate choices).

 

I got this new Maytag Centennial set yesterday and it's been chugging away all morning cleaning all the laundry we brought home from our weekend camping trip.

So far, it seems to be doing a great job with cleaning  BUT  I must say it is sort of loud and it takes longer to run a wash load than my old GE model did.  Guess I'll just have to get used to a little change after all.

Speaking of change,  I'm still trying to get the red out...of my hair that is.  I've treated it with another dose of Vitamin C/shampoo mixture this morning.  I don't know if it's any lighter but it shouldn't get a cold this winter.  :)

Thank you for stopping by my blog today, hope you leave a comment to let me know you were here.  Traffic in Blogland has been pretty slow lately, probably due to everyone out enjoying the beautiful fall weather and I don't blame them a bit, in fact, that's what I've been doing too!
