Washing machine settlement

Someone sent this to me today:

Quote:

A settlement has been reached with [Whirlpool and Sears] in several class action lawsuits claiming that certain front-loading washing machines manufactured between 2001 and 2010 fail to adequately self-clean themselves of laundry residue, resulting in mold or mildew buildup that can cause bad odors and ruined laundry...
If you are included in the Settlement, you may qualify for one of a variety of benefits including a cash payment, a rebate on the purchase of a new washing machine or dryer, or reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses incurred due to past mold or odor problems in your washing machine.

Our washer is included with this, and we have had the worst time with mold and odor. I'm so excited that we are eligible! That will help with our replacement, which is something we were going to do in the near future (within the next year). Need to research washers and dryers now...

ETA: If your washer is eligible for the settlement, then you need to file a claim by October 11th, 2016. Also, there is an LG settlement as well - more info here: http://www.lgwashersettlement.com/
