Now that your existing unit is working properly, you can spend more time researching how energy much new units consume in comparison to your numbers from your Kill-a-watt and pull the trigger if/when one comes into the "reasonable" price range. Or, do the math and determine it may never pay to replace something that is still running.

It's not that I don't like having new stuff, or more energy efficient appliances, I just hate having to pull the trigger when I haven't had time to fully vet the players and watch the pricing for a while to vet out the "fake" sales all the appliance stores seem to run. 35% off appliances (this week only), and yet the sale runs for 8 weeks??
