We took delivery of the new washer yesterday after. Marina's grandparents bought the old washer in 1988, from compensation vouchers given to her grandfather for the time he was imprisoned as a POW in Russia after WWII. The old washer held up and was still running strong after 20 years, but the centrifuge weakness, power consumption and the heavier work load were taking a toll. It has been retired to a more restful lifestyle at Marina's Mom's apartment in town here...
