Need advice on a washer/dryer repair/replacement

Recommendations? The ones I'm seeing on Amazon are practically more than a used full-size dryer price-wise.

Those full-size dryers are 240v. You can run them at 120v but they will only give you about 1/4th the drying power. You'll be looking at 4 hrs to dry a load and huge electric costs. If you can run 240v then a full-size is a no brainer, but at 120v you need something to make it work and that is the spin dryer.

You say you are handy - then you can easily build one. Here is a video to use as inspiration (but you can easily do better) -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3jNv6mUmyIY
Seems like those things have nearly no capacity though. I think I'm back to square one, folks...
