Members HottKarl Posted December 23, 2005 Members Share Posted December 23, 2005 Doing some laundry last night. I go in to put everything into the dryer. Clothes are soaking wet and the drum is still half full of water. I manually the run the final spin cycle again....won't kick on. We've got a front loading washer that's about 4 years old. I'm fairly irritated. Called Sears...they send a guy out today. I send him downstairs...5 minutes later, he's back upstairs, problem fixed. He's holding a couple of infant socks and some pocket change. Turns out my washer ate two of my daughter's socks (and a little loose change over the years) and it clogged the pump. P.S. $137.00 to "fix" my washer. Happy Holidays from Sears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members blackba Posted December 23, 2005 Members Share Posted December 23, 2005 Which units do you have man? I work at an appliance company on Dryer controls. The bellows (seals) on the front loaders are notorious for eating socks, especially baby's socks. You have to check the bellows on every cycle to help prevent that.

Guess I'll be checking them from now on.....or counting socks into and out of the washer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might as well have taken $137 out of my wallet and lit it on fire. I'll just tell the wife that it's coming out of her shoes/purse/jewelry fund and NOT my UberKab fund.

Sears has a very liberal return policy, if its not working right, get it returned and get a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our system is that I get gear periodically and she get's to buy her crap....purses, shoes, jewelry, etc. Let me tell you, coach bags ain't cheap at $300 a pop. My problem is that I have a guitar AND drum habit....drum stuff is spendy too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
