Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy, and expensive and you probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Poorly designed door

Submitted by tkm6 - We purchased a new Electrolux washer/dryer set based on the great success we had with the previous set we owned for over 12 years. The washer is fine but there is a defect in the way the dryer door is attached and it rattles so loudly i had to have a repairman try to fix it to make it tolerable. The set is only 3 months old.

Does not dry well

Submitted by Davis G - Esthetics are great and is easy to use however Auto dry does not work at all cloths always wet when done. Even time drying lacks ability to get clothes completely dry we have had repair services out twice with no changes. This performs very poorly for the reputation of the brand and cost.

Submitted by Bethwilliams4 - I thought if you bought a better brand and spent a little more money that it would be quality...however after only 4 months of just 2 of us using this dryer it required a new motor and failed to work.

Beware

Submitted by mom of three - I also was happy the first few months of using this dryer. However it has had to be serviced twice - the first time just days after installation because it came broken and we had to wait for new parts. Now less than one month after the expiration of the one year warranty the dryer is making a horrible rattling noise that shakes the whole house and the vendor thinks it is something with the fan. This time it is not covered by warranty and I am looking at a bill that is about 1/3 of the cost of the initial purchase price of the dryer. The rep said that these machines have too much loaded on to them with the electronics and they will always have problems and be breaking down and are very costly to repair. So - BEWARE. I would NOT buy again.

Stylish Machine

Submitted by joanne s - This was my first Electrolux purchase and I chose the product mainly on the recommendation of the sales associate. Actually all of the employees of the appliance store I shop at use Electolux washer and dryers. I have had them for about 3 weeks now and I am very happy with them both. The functionality of the machine was of course important to me but so was the style as most people enter my house through the laundry room so I wanted a machine that looked nice. These machines certainly fit that criteria. I purchased the steel grey color and I very much like the way they both complement my laundry room. The machines are quiet and they do the job well. I also like the quick wash and dry feature as well as the sanitize feature that easily takes the stink out of athletic clothing.

The process took 2 hours to remedy and re position. The tech my HVAC guy and me were rather frustrated at the poor prep. Other than that my wife likes the unit. SK

Between 6 months and 1 year

Submitted by Jones - I purchased the washer and dryer set together in December. I was excited to be able to own this beautiful set. However it took several conversations with the salesperson to understand how to get the wrinkles out of the clothes--both from using the washer and the dryer. I had wrinkles even with soft pajamas. I have never heard of such a thing. It appears the spin cycles have an extremely high speed and as well vibrates my floor. It appears I have to set both washer and dryer to WRINKLE RELEASE Why do I have to do this? It seems that with this expensive of a set I should not have to do this. To-date I have only done a few loads of laundry. I will say--the clothes seem to be much cleaner than with the old set. I have not used this washer and dryer unit long enough to been be able to give an overall review. However it is a beautiful set.

Great looking machine and so far functions well

Submitted by new electrolux customer - I bought this dryer a month ago and so far it is working well. Love all the features and how quiet this dryer is in my home. I was a little concerned by the inside grate turning discolored one week after use but brought in appliance repair service who told me that is normal with a gas dryer.
