The wife and I got a new set so we are selling our old set..
We purchased these new from American about 5 years ago..
They both work fine.. However, the wife said the washer agitator doesn't turn as well as it used to.. But they still get the cloths clean and the agitator still turns and spins.. Just not 'as good' as when it was new..
I did some research and it sounds like the adgitator 'dogs' wore out..
- The replacement 'dogs' are $4.00 on ebay: Dogs (http://http://cgi.ebay.com/Whirlpool-285770-Washer-Agitator-Dogs-Ears-80040_W0QQitemZ220314925360QQcmdZViewItemQQimsxZ20 081119?IMSfp=TL081119133007r23841)
- The link for the repair that should take about 20 min: Link (http://http://www.american-appliance.com/catalog/newsdesk_info.php?newsdesk_id=136)
BCM price: $200 for both..
