Midea MLTW62M7ACG over 10 years
10 years is NAHB's typical service life for this category; at $40/year, the Midea MLTW62M7ACG adds up to about $402 in electricity over that span.
Weighing a replacement
The Midea MLTW62M7ACG runs above its category average. If the washing machine you actually own is older still, likely well past ENERGY STAR's efficiency baseline when it was made, a current certified model could cost meaningfully less than this model's $40/year every year.
Worth comparing a few current certified models before deciding.
Protecting what you have
A washing machine like the Midea MLTW62M7ACG is a real household expense whether or not it needs replacing yet; a protection plan is one way to budget for a repair rather than a full replacement.
