Drake,
After having 2 Stabers in the last 25 years, we were having
too many problems with the second one (mechanically was OK but the
brains were not working correctly and board replacements are pretty
spendy. So we ended up with an LG model # WM3500CW as of 3 months ago.
Made in Vietnam.
I don't remember all the energy and water specs right now
but being the nerd, I'm sure they were the best. I had already bought 2
of these for my rentals and have had no complaints. The clothes really
come out dry. The clothes washing master here says she likes it so
there's a gold star. Only thing I don't like is its not made in USA. I
never asked Staber but maybe there's an extended warranty option.

Hello Wrenches,
For years, is seemed like the best off grid washing machine was the
Staber. I've read of complaints about cheap plastic parts breaking.
The price tag on this machine is very high for something that isn't
mechanically solid.
Are there any good options for an affordable, low power, low water
usage, resilient, repairable machine with a minimum of electronics on
the market?
Thanks,
Drake
