I have that washer. Now. My apartment building was constructed in the 1970s. My unit has the original appliances. I would happily trade with you, but since I don't own the washer, I probably shouldn't. I have the matching craptastic dryer as well. Everything takes 50 minutes to dry ... doesn't matter what it is, five pairs of jeans or two pairs of socks and some undies, needs to run 50 minutes.

The dryer exhaust vent is either too long, has too many bends, or is clogged with too much lint.

Our dryer took an hour to dry a load. Then I straightened the vent and switched to rigid metal pipe from that plastic slinky crap, and loads take 20 minutes now.

I gotta do something. My situation is the same - 50 minute no matter what - longer if there are jeans in there.

My vent goes into the attic and spews the lint there unabated... wonderful set-up.
