Repairing two Ceiling fans
purchased at Home Depot 2-3 years ago.
Fan shakes a lot and
the other Ceiling fan stopped turning fast.

Refrigerator
The inside of the refrigerator is flooded
The water runs down to the floor.

Washing machine
Surprised when dehydrating the drum type
It makes a noise and moves forward.

Hello.
Have you tried calling the respective manufacturer ？

If the cost of repair and buying a new one is not much different,
you should assume that it has reached the end of its life and throw it away.
If it is too old, it is because they no longer manufacture that part
and it takes time and money to find it, and I have been urged to replace it.

Dear Lion king
Thanks for the advice.
I contacted the place mentioned on KZOO radio, but they said they don't do repairs, so I posted this on Vivinavi.

The refrigerator and washing machine were purchased 5 or 6 years ago
The Ceiling fan was purchased about 3 years ago.
I thought it was too short a life span.

Topy

Surely both are still short.
I'll have to call each manufacturer or go online to find out the difference between the estimated repair cost and the
new replacement cost.

"The refrigerator is flooded" means that you have put too much stuff inside. We recommend that you rearrange the food inside a little.
I think the same reason applies to the washing machine.

To answer the above question differently, you can extend the warranty on expensive items by paying with a Credit Card that has an Extend warranty. After that, most whirlpool refrigerators are covered with appliance care for $ 21.99 per month. There used to be a Credit Card with Extend Warranty that didn't have an annual fee, but there are very few these days. If you know of one, please let me know ？.

In the U.S., the most common practice is to replace rather than repair electrical appliances that are out of warranty.
The reason for this is that in most cases the repair cost is the same as the new replacement cost.
First of all, the labor fee （ and labor time ） of the repair technician is much higher than in Japan.
If you must repair a product, do so only for products that you have fond memories of or something like that.

I recommend that you buy a new one.

＃ As Mr. 7 said, considering the repair cost,
it is better to buy one.
