That sucks big time Sissy, I would say you got ripped off, they should give you the latest newest improved model for all the trouble! I was going to get a new washer, will need one soon, current one old.... very old.... it's a Heavy Duty Speed Queen, it was second hand when we got it... 20 years ago! My friend tells me she got a new front end loader, uses next to no water, but she hates it, she said she wants her old one back! The new stuff they make these days is very poor quality, nothing new seems to last long! Time to fire up the old wood stove Sissy! My Auntie Mary had one on the farm, thing would heat the house too, but the fire got to low overnight and I used to wake up freezing!

Worked hard in the big freezer at work today, pellets of frozen bakery stuff everywhere! Now my hands are stiff and sore... oh well, got to keep on moving or I will just get stiffer. Arthritis getting to me! Funny my Auntie that had a farm worked real hard too and used to grumble about her sore hands, she used to complain in Ukrainian about it, now I can relate! Help I must be getting old too! :)

The only thing is new appliances are more energy efficient and wanted the second oven that is smaller.I really only need the smaller oven for us and that works great but can't say the same of the top of it .Believe me I never give up when I know I am right .I will fight this battle until they get sick and tired of me .I called a lawyer friend and he is checking into it also .You have to wake companies up once in awhile and rattle there cages so they listen to the consumers again .I don't think I am being unfair as it is paid for and all I want is something that works correctly and if there is a lemon there is a lemon and fix it so you do not loose customers .

That's not unreasonable, you just bought the thing! I would be upset and madder if they don't replace it! Good luck Sissy, "release the hound dogs" and bite them good! :)

Love how the light shines on the yellow, look! Turn the light off! There is no light on!! Ha ha
