I know LG's are out. A guy at work had a nightmare for weeks getting his LG fridge fixed even under warranty.
I bought the largest (at the time) capacity 32CF LG Fridge available . Got a 5 yr warranty from HD. Fridge was dead on delivery. Every moving part on that fridge was replaced within 6 months in 6 service calls. Right after the factory warranty ran out the ice maker died. Good thing the HD warranty kicked in after that.
 
Old dryer habit.. wood stove in the winter, rope in the sun during the summer

Once you get used to it, it's second nature


Not only can unplugging an electric dryer save a lot of money but some people are allergic to dryer sheets and/or detergent residues ( and don't know it ) which line dried clothes appear to be better at removing than a machine dryer. Clothes purportedly last longer as well.
