Are Washers Built to Break? Inside a 1984 Washer vs. Now

As offered and requested, I attempt to take apart 2 machines made by Whirlpool from their Clyde Ohio plant to show the differences as best I can between a modern Whirlpool Washing Machine, and an older style Kenmore-branded Washing Machine.

The teardowns didn't quite go the way I wanted them to, but hopefully, you get some ideas about the differences between these two systems. They both wash clothes, but certainly have a lot of different components involved!

Not sure which washing machine to buy? Here are a few I suggested in a previous video!
