What manufacturers (both dryers and washers) offer the most attractive lease options? Any good/dependable resources for used machines? I'm looking for top loaders and a few 50lb & 35lb. front loaders.

Thanks

Any good/dependable resources for used machines? I'm looking for top loaders and a few 50lb & 35lb. front loaders.There are several listed in the back of the Journal that offer used machines. I've hear stories of both sides on just about all of them.

If you buy a used machine sight unseen, you are at the mercy of the seller. His version of 'clean - runs good' might be different than yours. Buyer beware.

Your best bet is to find a store that is upgrading, or closing. That way, you can run the machine and check it out.

Have I bought machines sight unseen? Many times.

As long as the bearing isn't bad, the motor works, and it's not completely rusted out, I can get it up to MY standards.

I am going to buy some used dryers from a source that has had good and bad comments. I know there are few places that have speaclize in used stuff, many distribs offer a bone or less for trade ins. so not much local available.. I did have a guy nearby who delt used, but retired a few years ago.
My specs will be. Model and serial number. Picture of front, and inside. No torn baskets. ( I am buying dryers)
I know there is some sort of warranty, I will bargain that some also.
