19:34you'll probably get quoted nearly the cost of a new dryer
19:40If the board is fried, I'd get a new one
19:41sounds like you let the magic smoke out
19:47that's fair, gotta go with what's cheaper
19:47Getting a new one might be easier if on discount
19:48if it's smelling like burning, I'd call in a professional at that point. Scary stuff
19:50Depends...is the old one really old or kind of old
19:56guess you can't hold out for black friday?
19:57sourcing those control boards can be hard to do
19:59May as well then, yeah.
20:04good point how old is it?
20:07Is it an electrical burning smell or a plastic burning smell.
20:07it's like 150 just for the visit and then at least 150 on top of it
20:10I paid $30 for my drier from facebook
20:13knowing your internet cables, your power lines are probably screwed and done by the previous owner
20:15At least you can hang dry until the meantime. A broken washer is way worse imo
20:15It's at least worth having a pro look at. It could be simple
20:17yeah, mine is older than me
20:18yeah... they aren't as reliable these days
20:20My dryer is almost 40 years old.
20:20What about hanging the clothes outside???
20:20That's pretty good for a dyer
20:22they used to have like 20 year warranties
20:22old ones used to last, newer ones not so much
20:24Older ones were made to last, ngl
20:24maybe once upon a time. Not so much anymore
20:25Honestly a lot of new appliances aren't that good so repairing can be a better option
20:25i wouldnt trust an old house wires
20:27Sadly, appliances are built to fail.
