I was a maintenance man for a huge American health care provider. 29 buildings in Canada. The new units kept dying and the older buildings with 15 year old washers and dryers keep going. My theory is get a free set from 20 years ago and rebuild them. Dryers haven't improved, ever. They just put in computer cards to run them instead of mechanical timers, and they are as much as a new machine when they go. The washers have their cards under the drum over the motor. You can guess how that goes.
Samsung is still Samsung. Most are lucky to make it past warranty. A lot of the fridges drain lines are crooked and plug off. Next comes water damage.
And the heavy duty sticker on machines, is solely just a sticker, like the Harley Davidson Fords.
