    Late to the party, I know.

    We have a Samsung set going on about 5 years now. They're fine? :notsure: Things get clean. It's kind of hard to judge when you share with other people who don't do laundry like you do or with the same stuff. But I also do things pretty simply, and barely use any of the modes on either. Too many damn buttons. I guess if I wanted to make a specific complaint it would be that the dryer moisture sensor is crap. If you let it auto anything, even pushing 'more dry', things are always still pretty damp when it 'finishes'. I just do everything in timed mode for the length of time I know it will take through experience.

    :rofl::rofl::rofl:
    Boulder is 'landlocked'. Never mind the fact that, as someone else said, it's a whole other world, but the building restrictions there pretty much guarantee that it will always be one of the higher priced areas on the front range. They don't have room to build much more, and what room they have is tightly controlled so it puts a premium on everything. If you went Boulder you could look north a bit into Longmont/surrounding to go a bit cheaper. But as BDN said, commuting into/out of Boulder on some of the routes that are obvious if you look at a map is going to be a bitch no matter where you come from. First couple years I lived in state I was in Lakewood across the street from Denver (Hampden & Wadsworth). It was a nice area, and the commute to downtown was only about 20 min. If I were going back down there again, I'd probably look in the same area or a bit south or west.

    If I had to move to Denver and be within a 30 - 45 minute drive to DIA, what parts of the city should I be looking to live in?

    It really depends on when you are traveling to the airport. I live about as far from the airport as possible within the metro area and can make it there from my house in 45 min when there is no traffic but in rush hour it can take twice that long.

    I'm about 15mins from DIA and 30 mins from Downtown no traffic. Pretty nice area too. No plane noise either. Reunion area Google it.

    I'm just mildly entertaining this offer as of now. Well known worldwide company, almost a 30k annual raise, but nationwide travel required 70% of the time, and would have to relocate to the Denver area....decision, decisions....

    Speaking of high prices, I don't get why we even have an airport in the springs still. Looking at flights to Phoenix, like $80 direct from Denver, or for $300 we can puddle jump you to Denver then fly you to Phoenix!

    It's just annoying having to drive up there and back.
