Newcomer Questions
I hear ya Don but you got to admit to do a large wash in a Splendid you have
to spend all day with many loads or many days with single loads waiting zero
minutes to do the wash. Then you have to do the zero minute thing all over
again to accomplish the drying. At least you get your exercise I guess VBG.
You are also right that the washer/dryer thing is like tires and batteries.
A never-ending source or conjecture.
