Samsung 4.5 CF Washer & LINK: Best Top-loading Washing Machines 2019

pc: Samsung

Our old, beat-up (circa 1997) White-Westinghouse washer conked-out on us very suddenly.  We inherited it from my Parents in 2009 (already 12 years old). 

No regrets -- we got good use out of it thru the years in our busy household (many kids, clothes, towels, messy pets, floor coverings -- you name it).


NOTE:  We also have my Parent's dryer. Still in garage to be used as a back-up for our slowly falling apart Maytag dryer. Thank You, Lord, for my imperfect (like me), yet wonderful parents from whom I've received many benefits. 

The link below for the-best-of-2019 lists a SAMSUNG washer with a very big drum size of 5 cubic feet under the BEST VALUE category.  We bought a somewhat similar washer with 8 cycles instead of 11; in the smaller (yet still huge-to-me) drum size of 4.5 cubic feet.

Nothing fancy: no agitator but has an impeller to accommodate bigger loads; nice-looking drum interior; self-cleaning, cute chimes. So far, we really like it other than for shorty-me being unable to easily reach laundry from the bottom of the washer's large drum.

I Want a Retro-style Schaub Lorenz Refrigerator

I was pleasantly surprised to see this beauty ensconced at our son and DIL's kitchen/apartment. How did they know that I was on the lookout for a retro-style refrigerator?  Our future mid-century style (or as close as I can get it) kitchen would look great with one. Now here was an example, live and in color! And RED was at the top of my color list.  Quite uncanny of them, LoL.

 I had never heard of the brand, Schaub Lorenz (German), but it is now on my radar.  I will need to see prices and accessibility; compare them to those brands that I am a little bit familiar with, namely super-expensive  S M E G.
