It was so exciting to get shiny, new appliances with all the "bells & whistles"... high efficiency, LED display, etc. But, guess what? The more fancy gadgets... the more chance of things going wrong!
This past July, the dryer refused to start. I grabbed the manual & did all the trouble-shooting suggestions. My husband insisted that he double check that I had done everything right (as he tends to do - LOL). The repairman was called, came & replaced a part. No charge due to the one year warranty. HOORAY!
And then TODAY... one year to the day from purchasing the appliances, the dryer pulled the same stunt. A quick call to the manufacture revealed that the warranty will cover this next service trip, as well. Not exactly how I wanted my "birthday eve" to play out. Once again, my back yard & sun room have turned into a drying center.
Crazy coincidence? I don't know. But, one thing I know for sure... if it had to happen a second time on the final day of the warranty is better than in another month or so. And, trust me... should the same issue occur again, the manufacture is going to be replacing something!
With so much of life, certain events & happenings seem to be a cruel coincidence. Timing often seems anything but what we had in mind. Often though, the interruptions to our day to day bring about changes that we later recognize as perfect timing.
