If you were my bloggy friend last summer, you may remember my exasperating experience trying to replace my broken washer and dryer. I'm not so sure I'm singing Sears' praises now.
Yesterday I emptied the dryer at the end of the cycle and almost dropped the clothes because they were so hot, in spite of having the dryer set to the "Low - Delicates" cycle. The dryer itself was so hot inside and out that I was thankful it didn't catch on fire. My man checked that the ventilation wasn't blocked and the lint screen was clean; looking up the problem on the web, it appears that it is likely a broken thermostat.
So I called Sears to request a repairman, and after being routed 3 different extensions (and having to give my phone number, name, and other info to each of the folks I talked to, an aggravation in itself!), I was told that the washer is still under warranty and they would schedule a repairman. Next Friday.
As in April 2. TEN days away.
I find it hard to believe they are that booked up. I suspect they only have a few slots each day for warranty repairs , since they don't make money off of those calls. But ten days?!?!
I'm thinking the dryer isn't the only thing full of hot air.
Anybody have a clothesline I can borrow?!
So sorry about this mess.
ReplyDeleteThose bluebonnets are beautiful!
I'd love to do the whole NYC thing some day too...even though I really am a country girl at heart.
What an aggravation! My heart goes out to you. Hope it gets resolved soon.
ReplyDeleteMaybe if we mate your over-heated drier to my under-heated drier, we would get one that works. I want it on Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays. You can have it the rest of the week. In the meantime, take your laundry to Sears and hang it in their garden department. They'll get the message.
ReplyDeleteAggravating!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my word! That would have me hot under the collar too! Hope it gets resolved.
ReplyDeleteUh oh!! You could borrow my clothesline. My Dad made them for me.

Looks like it's starting again Linda! I think I would be making a call to corporate!
