This may be only news to me but I found a new place to find a washing machine. Bank Repossessions! Disgusted with the new machines that only wash clothes in cold water, at first I was determined to get mine repaired. While waiting, I endured several horrible trips to a laundromat; wet clothes, dirty clothes, nothing washed hot. Then I heard about a gentleman who picks up appliances at the request of banks who repossess homes. Since the banks don't charge him anything, the appliances are inexpensive. It is buyer beware since the seller can't tell you about any problems. The person I bought from though had a thirty day return policy. So far less than the cost of two trips to the laundromat, I have an older model washer with no electronic controls. It washes with hot water!
