Whether to repair or replace an appliance depends on a few factors like the age of the appliance, how much the repair will cost, and how much it will cost to replace it. If the appliance is still under 10 years old and the repair isn't too expensive, then it's usually better to repair it. But if it's an older appliance and the cost of fixing it is higher than the replacement, then you may consider purchasing a new appliance instead. Ultimately, the decision of whether to repair or replace an appliance can't be determined without a proper diagnosis of the repair problem. If you're not sure what to do, it's a good idea to talk to an appliance repair professional who can give you advice based on your specific circumstances.
