Picked a used Maytag over a new Samsung for a tough rental job in Cincinnati last week

I had to choose between a used Maytag washer with a mechanical timer and a brand new Samsung with all the electronics, and I went with the Maytag because it was half the price and I know I can fix anything on it with basic tools. Has anyone else found that older, simpler machines hold up better in high-use rentals than the new fancy ones?

Hey @val_wilson, didn't you know my buddy bought a used Maytag from a garage sale once... thing ran like a tank for years until he finally sold the place. He never even had to call a repair guy, just cleaned the lint filter now and then.

Huh, did you test that old Maytag before buying it?
