Is your Washer and Dryer a matched set?

Millennials seem to think it matters.  I personally do not give a hoot.  Do you?

I need a radio button for 'yes and no'.
I have one washer and two dryers -- one which matches the washer and one which doesn't.

But no, in the end, I don't give a hoot.  As long as it dries the clothes efficiently, I'm a happy camper.

I have two sets that all match, but I don't give a flip if they do or not.  It just worked out that way.

As for "maters", I prefer mine home grown.

I figure the only time it would make sense, would be if you were selling you home with appliances.  Matched pair would be better aesthetically I guess.

Yes. Too inconvenient to go to the laundromat. I rather do my laundry in the comfort of my home.

Water/ Ice maker was a great invention.  Would never own a fridge without one.

Can remember those stinking ice trays with those metal levers to break  the ice out of the tray..  Of course in those days that kind of busy work was given to us kids.

Sort of.  Washer quit.  Replacement computer board cost more than a new washer.  Bought a newer version of the same model, floor model.

Don't care as long as it works well.

No match here.

My dryer is currently in the garage where it went when I replaced the floor in the laundry room. I'll have a crowd here on the 16th and con someone into helping me bring it back in. I don't use it much during the summer anyway. That's what the clothesline is for.

No. When we bought our frig, I was insistent that it not have the icemaker.
Of course, I'm such a luddite, when we built the house I said don't bother putting in a dishwasher. That will affect the resale value, I'm sure.  :shrug:

LOL! Sounds kinda like home. My mom had her good washer and dryer upstairs for the rest of the family... And the old set in the basement for my dad's clothes, and mine, and horse blankets and such....

no dishwasher. Silliest thing ever made. No ice-maker. with two freezers (one big upright and one huge horizontal), ice ain't a problem. I keep drinking water, sweet tea, and lemonade in the fridge, anyway. And I like tray ice better.

The reason it matters to me is that when one or the other goes out on a person it does matter to,  they run out and get another matched set and sell the good one for cheap in the want ads.

Mine are matching. (It's the least dear husband could do, since he won't provide me with a cleaning staff.)  :tongue2:

Technically, no, though you've not know it to look at them.  They are both LG appliances, but the dryer is one tier down from the washer.  When our last washer died,  we got the fanciest top-loading LG model on deep sale, then about half a year later used premiums earned from that to help pay for a new dryer, also LG, but cheaper than the "matching" dryer, before the premiums expired.  (The dryer hadn't died, but it was old). 
And when they behead your own people in the wars which are to come, then you will know what this was all about.

Nope mine don't match and I really don't care.  They are older models and work great (knock on wood).  The dryer is about 20 years old and is a Kenmore 90 super capacity plus and the washer is about 15 years old and is a GE King Size capacity, energy star efficient.  I can fit a king comforter in the dryer and I can fit a queen comforter in the washer.  The washer is an older model but has several different settings for clothes type and water temperature and has an extra rinse and extra spin cycle. I wouldn't part with either one of them for the newer models.  Why spend the money?  The clean and dry just fine. Yes, they are both the same height and the same color (white).

The real poll should be what laundry detergent do you use?

I use Tide plus bleach powder.  I will NOT use anything else; not even Tide liquid (I tried it and it stained my whites).
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
