Got mine oct 2003 and still running !!!! Wonder if the newer models are still built like these older ones.....

@@wacalla26 I have a WFW92HEF that is approaching 7 years old now, and so far I’ve never had so much as a light flicker, and it’s still just as quiet and works as perfectly as day one. I did a deep clean on it at the 4.5-5 year mark (removed the pump assembly and sump, the vent tubes and hoses, etc) and it was remarkably clean. Nothing but a little grime in the joints where components connect, but no mold or gunk buildup anywhere, so it keeps itself pretty self-maintained with the usual front loader care habits. Who knows what the “new-new” models are like, but this one is still recent enough to speak on its build quality.
