Ugh My washing machine just broke..Which new washer?

[jrw118]

Well tonight my Whirlpool Duet Sport washer just broke. We thought we fixed it following the diagnostic test but it did not work and all signs are pointing to the CCU board. This will be a easy $400 to fix. I believe it is original to the house about 10-12 years old. I have been her for almost 2 years. I am not about to throw good money after bad here and pay even $300 to fix it when I can go to the local scratch and dent place and get a new one for $500. Anyone have any recommendations? I am sure when this machine was new it was high end but there are really no features that I have to have. I do not see my self using any steam features.

what are you looking for in features? What does it have that you do like and use? Are you looking for top or front load? Do you want a HE washer?
