Appliances: When to Fix, When to Replace
If you have an appliance that isn't working properly, perhaps a look at this handy reference guide from the May 2007 issue of Consumer Reports can help you decide what to do with your appliance.
The article focuses on several factors which will aid in making the decision to repair or replace. The age of the appliance, typical repair costs, and the improvements on new models were taken into consideration.

The following list offers up information that will assist in making a practical decision regarding the age and type of appliance:

Age: 6 Years refrigerators, dishwashers and microwave ovens.

Age: 7 Years Loading from the top washing machines and dryers.

Age: 8 Years Gas or electric ranges, loading from the front washing machines, electric wall ovens, side-to-side refrigerators an refrigerators with the freezer on the bottom.
