Figoush Posted November 22, 2021 Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 I’m looking for a new stacking washer and electric dryer. I had a Frigidaire set in my last house purchased at Tio Sam’s. They no longer carry Frigidaire and had zero interest in sourcing another brand. Same result at Electroventa. Anybody bought an electric set lately?

Figoush Posted November 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 Solar. Definitely cheaper to operate than gas. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TelsZ4 Posted November 22, 2021 Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 Most homes won’t have a 220v connection for a dryer…Also electric dryers are not common here.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now the only propane I use is for my BBQ. I save tens of thousands of pesos a year on propane and I'm kinder to our environment.

tomgates Posted November 22, 2021 Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 I am surprised Tio Sams couldn't get you one. We bought all our appliances from them, even a high end Monogram dual fuel 48" range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Shrall Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 We were looking to replace a 15 year old Maytag 220v dryer about 2 years ago but after a long search we could only come up with a gas Samsung model. The Maytag unit was very efficient and really didn't consume as much electricity as many had predicted. We bought a washer and dryer for our house in Ajijic as well as similar models for another property at the beach. If I look at the Liverpool web site now the number of options are very limited with only one or 2 electric and those are probably 110v which are energy hogs. There's nothing available on the high end including the Samsungs we bought and are very happy with. There has been a shortage of most appliances for the last year or so related to lack of computer chips/boards and other supply chain problems. The options shown on the Liverpool site seem to confirm the lack of supply of any sort of washer and dryer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tingting Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 Figoush, if you do search online, be very careful. We wanted to replace our front loading machines (electric) with a stackable set and had trouble finding one that offered an electric dryer. Long story short, I thought I found one with LG's Thin Q and ordered it via Sears. Nope. Even though there was NOTHING that said it was a gas dryer, well...it is and I'm pissed. SInce it's one of those "too late" situations, we'll get it properly piped, etc. Meanwhile, expensive lesson learned. Home Depot carries them and so do many others (just type "secadora electrica") but you may have a problem w/delivery and will have to scrounge a friend with a truck. BTW, even with our old, electricity-chomping dryer, we never sweated it because we have solar and still make more than we use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figoush Posted November 24, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2021 Thanks Ron. Not trying to be picky, but I am really looking for a full size stacking set to free up some space n the laundry room. I think I’ll make a trip to Home Depot just the same.
