Product review (1 stars): Spend a little more on a product that is built better and last longer
I purchased the whirlpool duet combo from sears in 2010. It has been okay to me..until now. I used it 4-5 times a month for the past 4 years. Once in awhile I do get a leak from the rubber front door seal, but it's not a major issue to be pissed off about just really annoying considering we consumers expect it to be a quality product for the price we pay. The machine also gets incredibly noisy while on spin. Last week, my washing machine started leaking from the bottom and flooded my laundry room leaving slightly under an inch of water from the leftover in the drum. Right now the floor of my laundry room looks like the bottom of a hamster cage with layers over layers of newspaper to soak up this water. It is a shame that the technicians price to come out and fix the machine with new parts cost just as much as buying a new one. It is built poorly and does not last long!! I am not going to buy another or recommend this to anyone because I don't believe in this product anymore. I am also not impressed with the warranty from Sears or Whirlpool.

The dryer still works for now. I will update this post when that fails.

Hope this review helps all of you buyers out there
