Product review (5 stars): A new drier wasn't in the budget, but this motor was.
This washer and dryer were already used for many years before we got them in 2001. When a bearing started squealing loudly from the dryer, I was praying it could be repaired. While replacing the actual bearing didn't look manageable, replacing the motor did. Thank goodness, because a new dryer was not in our budget. Plus, this motor is a little quieter than the old one, before it started squealing.
