Washers and Dryers
Laundry machines are among your homes most essential and frequently used appliances.
Brands such as Rheem, Trane and Lennox are built to high standards and last 15 to 25 years.
That assessment closely matches Mateis experience.
Basic models from Rheem or Bradford White can run efficiently for eight to 12 years, he said.
We recently installed a three-year-old Rheem for a client, saving them over $500.
With annual maintenance, it should provide hot water for another decade.
Stoves and ovensalso have excellent lifespans if theyre high quality, Matei said.
We service many ovens 10 to 15 years old that are still baking like new.
Here, too, he and Zalesak are on the same page.

Always test used appliances and choose a reputable brand and model for the best value, he said.
