A New Dryer

Do YOU Need to Buy a Dryer?

Anyone who has been inconvenienced by a broken down dryer knows the sacrifice in time it takes to dry clothes the old fashioned way. Even if you choose to go to the laundromat instead of hanging up your wet clothes to dry, you still have to take the time to tote them over there and it still costs you. To me, it's a pretty big let-down when you open up your dryer to fold your clothes and they are still damp. You close the door and turn the dryer back on only to have the same thing happen when the timer goes off again. And that's when you realize it wasn't a mistake on your part, the machine just isn't working. It may not be the end of the word, but it's not fun to deal with a broken dryer. 

As with almost all electronics, with time and manufacturing innovations, the dryer has actually gotten relatively cheap. In the 1950s when tumble dryers were gaining popularity, they cost an average of 230 dollars and were only in 10% of American households. The price probably had more to do with that than anything. A lot of families either couldn't justify the cost when the sun did it for free or they couldn't afford it. If you are thinking that price isn't that much, back during the '50s, that would be like paying over $2,200 for one today. While I am sure I could find one that cost that much, it better help me lose weight at that price. The average cost of a modern tumble dryer is $340 in 2019. If you went back to the '50s and reversed the inflation, that amount would be more like 35 dollars. Now that's a cheap washer by today's pricing standards.

Washing Machine got you Down?

Cutting Edge Washing Machines

Washing Machine got you Down?

In my opinion, there are several ways a washing machine can get you down. You could set aside all the mechanical things that could go wrong and just focus on what your machine doesn't do for you. For instance, if you feel like you are constantly doing laundry, maybe your machine's load capacity has something to be desired. Maybe the cycle for delicates is about as gentle as a fall off a step ladder. Maybe if you are having a bad time while doing laundry, you just need a new washing machine. Having a greater capacity to clean the clothes in your house may help you out in the long run. Let's face it, if you have a washer that is 20 years or older, you may not know what the new ones are capable of doing.

This particular unit has a lot of helpful features. One example is that the spin cycle rotates at 1300 RPMs. What that means is that it manages to get a lot more water out of the clothes due to the velocity of the faster spin cycle. That means your clothes will spend less time in the dryer and more time hanging in your closet. Another bonus that comes with this particular washing machine for sale is the steam feature that helps loosen up stains before washing the clothes. It has an internal water heater and this helps to reduce odor-causing bacteria that most people associate as a negative with front load washers. In addition to all these features, it has a quick wash setting for when you just need to do a little light cleaning for a quick outfit. 

This is just one of the items they have to offer when it comes to washing machines and that's not all they have. They also have ranges, refrigerators of all styles, and dryers. If you need to buy a new appliance for your house, they can help.

Furniture for a New House

Buying Furniture for a New House

I remember when I made the jump from renting a house to buying a home. It was a big decision in my life and I look back with absolutely no regret. At the time I was buying, I was scared thinking of all the stuff that comes with it, including the payments. In my opinion, there are good and bad things that go with each one. For instance, when you rent, typically, the maintenance of the house is not your responsibility. The drawback, of course, is that things might not get fixed very fast when you have to wait for someone else to take care of things. The list could go on for a mile, but that's not my point. 

When I bought my house, it was bigger than the apartment I had previously occupied. This fact became painfully apparent when I started moving into my new home and realized exactly how much more space I had. There was so much open space in the living room that my poor 32 inch TV was so far away, it looked like I was trying to watch shows on my phone. It took a while, but I eventually got the interior of my home to look and feel like I wanted. 

The Search for Affordable Furniture

One of my goals was to get a living room set and a bedroom set that actually matched. Before buying my house, all my furniture had been cobbled together through luck, garage sales, and hand-me-downs. Needless to say, when it came to aesthetics, my furniture was very lacking. With some more luck and a little bit of investigation, I found a place that had everything I needed when it came to furniture for sale in Abilene. I found Pierce Furniture Gallery and it was a good thing, too.

Abilene Furniture Store

When I was looking for new furniture at all the myriad furniture stores in Abilene and I came across a sofa that I wanted at one store. I decided to wait and look around some more and I ended up finding the same sofa with a matching love seat for less than what the original location wanted for the couch alone.
