Truth About Dryer Lifespans

Dryer Repair Service in Brighton, Fenton, Howell, and Grand Blanc Township, Michigan. 


This 50 50 rule bothers me enough to dedicate an entire page of my website. I'm guessing this was a rumor started by a New Appliance Sales person. As you read on, I think you'll feel it doesn't pass the sniff test, too. 


Imagine a little old senior citizen with a 20-year-old dryer, who does 2 light loads a week. This person might clean the lint screen before every load, as you should. A 20-year-old clothes dryer was made when manufacturers wanted to be the best. That world doesn't exist anymore. 


This Dryer could last 40 years, plus it feels like an old friend to this senior. Do we throw it out because of a rumor that assigns a number to life expectancy? NO is my answer. The Dryer could last another 20 years with 1 possible breakdown, in my opinion, based on over 20 years of dryer repair experience. 


Imagine a lady with 3 children, 2 of whom are in sports. Imagine she does all her laundry in one day or just over the weekend. The parts on that Dryer get hotter and hotter with every load. The stress on those parts doesn't last long. This Clothes Dryer could be worn out in 3 years, and it's tired and noisy. 


So the number system 50 50 is a hoax. Here is the solution to these thoughts today. I have loads of experience with Dryer Repair. I can hear or feel when a dryer is tired. If I can't fix your Dryer without it breaking down again soon after, I really would hesitate to fix it. I want to have a happy life, and if you call back soon after with another breakdown. You're not happy, and now I'm not either. 


If you can find an older dryer repair technician with integrity like me, then you can experience fairness. A company that sells new appliances, you have to wonder in my opinion.
