I posted a bit earlier about a possible spider arm breaking. I'm not sure what the problem is, but I have a few more pictures.

Basically it made a really loud noise and now every time it hits the fast spin cycle, it sounds like it's going to fall apart.

I have a video of the noise.

Also, when we cleaned the filter out there was a ton of plastic in it that was not there last night.

I'm not sure what the problem is now. Any advice would be appreciated.

I was running our washer and it made a really loud noise and now when it hits the fast spin cycle it makes a really loud noise.

For my limited googling it seems like it might be a broken spider arm. I have attached a video to get a second opinion.

The washer is about 8 years old so I'm guessing it is not worth fixing?

Currently my main credit card is the Tangerine World Mastercard. I was thinking of applying for the Costco Credit Card and only use it at Costco. We don't shop a ton at Costco, but occasionally buy gas (generally more often when gas prices are higher) and the occasional big purchase (I'm looking at purchasing a new TV in the fall).

Since it doesn't have any fees there doesn't seem to be any downsides.

Any reason not to do it?

I know people like to recommend the Rodgers Cards, but we don't have any services from them and have no plans to add any.
