White Appliances - Never Out of Style!

Years ago when we shopping for appliances for our new home, I was wondering what color to buy. Gold and green were the popular colors of the time.

White is always in style, a friend casually commented. There was a ring of truth in his words - so we bought four white appliances.


















A white dishwasher came later (after our third child was born).


















The only appliance we still have from that original purchase thirty-one and a half years ago is our dryer... which still works! When I think of the daily machine-loads of cloth diapers I washed and dried for three babies - and all the laundry it has dried since the ice storm knocked down our clothes line (and we never bothered to replace it), it's pretty amazing. When I mentioned this fact to an appliance repairman, he shook his head and said, Your next one won't last as long. So I'm in no rush to get a new one.



















We are currently looking at fridges - so we'll be prepared if our current fridge "dies." It's fourteen years old and we've heard that the average life of a fridge these days is twelve to fifteen years. (They definitely don't make appliances like they used to!)
