I have a 5 yr old front loading Kenmore washer that has
not been very reliable.

Thinking of selling and going for Fisher Paykel.

Any stats or opinions on how reliable FP is compared to
other brands?

There are "lemons" with any brandname. We've used a Kenmore washer since
1989 without a single problem.

I don't have any stats, but My Fisher & Paykel has been absolutely great and
trouble free. A lot fewer moving parts may be part of the reason. FP has been
well established as a "better" brand in other countries for a very long time.

This is my gut feeling as well..... the FP has so few
parts compared to a front loader

Do you mind having a top loader tho?

Not at all. I also like that the FP doesn't need special (expensive)
soap, like the front loaders need, and it uses half as much regular
soap as a conventional top loader.
