- shopExact tells you if your clothes washer is ENERGY STAR rated and if it is super efficient.
- We also show that after 7 years the average repair bill due to part failure is $250.
- Therefore the total estimated cost for the remaining life of the clothes washer, including potential repair bill is: $822 compared to $352 for Best in Class.
- shopExact then gives you a recommendation relative to a price scale. We tell you if you have done a great job and have an ultra efficient low annual cost appliance, or let you know that a new unit will pay for itself in a few years. Either way shopExact gives you an unbiased recommendation.
