It's hard to find a refrigerator without all that crap in them.
We bought a new washer and dryer when we moved. When we looked, we wanted one without all the digital crap on it. We couldn't find one....I thought that was interesting because the sales person said they we all sold out. I think that might have been a clue.
Instead, we bought the one that was middle-the-road in price. It had all the digital crap on it. After it was installed, we immediately had problems with both the washer and dryer. A service person came out and immediately fixed the problem in the washer and after some consternation fixed the dryer. It was the moisture sensor that needed cleaning. A moisture sensor? WTF? Whatever happened to sticking your hand in to check to see if the clothes are dry? And turning the timer on for another 10 minutes or so if the clothes are still damp? We are living in a growing idiocracy.
After talking with the service guy, he admitted that with all the service calls he makes, he long ago decided to use at home an all analog (mechanical) washer and dryer. He says the old washers and dryers don't break down, are easy to service, and work better than the 'Smart' washers and dryers.
It's as simple as stating vibration is the biggest menace to electronics. So keeping the design simple is always the best way to go.
