Should you repair or replace your dryer?
Dryers last 13–17 years and are among the best appliances to repair because their parts are inexpensive and they're mechanically simple. Even a control board replacement at $250 is far less than a new dryer at $450–$900. We almost always recommend repair for dryers under 15 years old unless the drum itself is damaged or the unit has had multiple failures in a short period.
At Denver's Best Appliance Repair, we always give you an honest recommendation. We will tell you when replacement makes more financial sense than repair — and we'll never push a repair that isn't in your best interest.
