My mom had a Maytag washing machine that lasted her 35 years before it started to rust out and leak.

The washing machine would still wash clothes but it would leak water due to the rust.

Today's washing machines however typically only last only 10 years before needing replaced with a new one.

So with today's washing machines expect no more than 10 years before needing to replace the washing machine.
