I still saved better than $1k than buying from local stores with lower prices and saving on the tax.

We just payed ours off from when we bought them last year....feels good to get that out of the way. Was def worth the money. We took advantage when Lowes offered 12 months no interest/no payments.

I moved a couple of years ago into a place that had all 20 year old or so appliances. In the past 2 years or so, almost every appliance that came with the property broke or was on its last legs. A little more than $6K later, all my appliances are stainless steel, energy star, and generally a pleasure to use. When I replaced my laundry machines my electric bill went down around $30 per month.
