I had this dilemma once around six years ago when I moved into a new house.
Kept the old ones after being lectured by the guy selling the new machines.. New are crap, the old ones are designed to last 15 years or far longer.
Had that urge to buy new and cool machines, washer and dryer. But I also had a set of immaculate Montgomery Wards "Admiral" machines, at least 30 years old now. Decided to keep those. They work perfect and look cool in a retro way.
I did have to spend $100 on a repair on the dryer once. Appliance repair of these old machines is good business these days.
