You can also buy really good machines that last forever, you just have to pay a lot more. To me it seems the guy complaining just buys the cheapest washing machine build and delivered by slave workes from Amazon

Problem is you can't trust anything. The fancy $2k machine might just be fancy in name. You don't know if stuff is good before it starts not being. And reviews don't help, because they won't test a product for 5 years to check durability before posting

The speed queen I mentioned comes with a 7 year warranty and they're the brand used by laundromats who need them to be reliable to make money. That said, the consumer grade ones are not as solidly built as the commercial units, but that's because nobody is going to put laundromat levels of abuse on their home washing machine.
