Only about 4 weeks in as a cashier and I've heard this enough to last me a lifetime.

Get commercial washer and dryer, Speed Queen, on the used market.

A used model will cost as much as a new Samsung consumer model, but it'll last far longer and has replaceable hardware inside.

We literally just today unwrapped a new Whirlpool washer. I'll keep that in mind next time though.

it will also tear your clothes apart while using 3x the water and power as a newer model LG or GE without an agitator

no thanks!

Right, right.

Because commercial laundromats don't have to pay for water or energy.

Pray tell, how would a washer tear your clothes when they're the same washing mechanism as a consumer model - a tub with paddles on the sides.

Donyour clothes get torn at the laundromat? Not seeing how they'd stay in business if that were the case.

Right, because I want to pay a huge amount for water and power like a commercial laundromat does. Lol.

I love it when people argue with me like I don’t do this for a living.
