How old is my appliance?

How old is my Maytag washer? How old is my Frigidaire dryer? How old is my GE refrigerator?

Many times the customer thinks they know how old it is, but they really have no idea because it’s easy to lose track of time.

Here are some forum topics that will help you determine how old your appliance really is.
