Repair or replace?
| Situation | General recommendation |
|---|---|
| Appliance under 8 years old, repair under 50% of new price | Repairing is generally more cost-effective |
| Appliance over 10-12 years old with a major failure | Replacing is often more worthwhile long-term |
| Minor failure (element, seal, belt) | Repair, regardless of age, in most cases |

Myths vs. facts
Myth: a broken appliance always needs replacing. Fact: most failures come down to a single faulty part (heating element, pump, thermostat) that costs a fraction of a new appliance to replace.
Myth: every brand repairs the same way. Fact: some brands have parts that are harder to find or more expensive — an experienced technician can tell you quickly whether your brand is easy to repair.
