Okay so usually when someone wants to talk about their new dishwasher of fridge or washer I kind of get glazed and tune out and think something to the effect of "what sort of brain malfunction causes a person to be this excited about new microwave?"
yeah.
Guess who's getting a new washer & dryer next week?
My washer is gonna be SWEET. It's Energy Star & high efficiency and its got a handwash setting and a TIMER. Seriously I can toss in my laundry tell it to start washing in nine hours and come home in time to toss it in the dryer. It has half a dozen water temperatures, four different spin cycles and automatically decides how much water to use. It has a sound dampening and antimicrobial coatings.
Its the awesomesauce. Seriously.
My dryer is going to be pretty lame by comparison, but... well, dryers just aren't that nifty until you get way out my price range and start talking Energy Star with dry cleaning functions and stuff. I don't need high capacity. I don't need pretty exteriors. It drys. It has two heat settings and does air fluff. It has one dial and one button.
I am good with having a low tech dryer to go with my high tech washer.
I am also good with getting them both massively on sale and with 12 months no interest financing which means I can do laundry at home NOW instead of in December.
I've totally done my part to combat the recession this week.
