It surprises me with my current portable Haier GE how well it actually cleans, and I think that's mostly due to the detergent. But this machine also uses more water and runs both spray arms at the same time. You can get a very good wash on the 48-minute cycle. Not too bad.
I think because the real reason people are keeping their cars longer is because cars now are far more expensive than in 1969. There's a much bigger gap today of what things cost and how much people are actually earning.
I would still take one of these 1969 Whirlpool washers over anything built...
Well John, maybe it's humans who took pride in their work back in the day. This was still the America where people could go to a manufacturing job that had medical insurance and vacation time and make a decent living and have a pretty good life. Now with continued automation of "lowly" blue...
Yes and it was global freezing in the '70s and acid rain in the '80s and I have no idea in the '90s or now..... It's all control of YOUR life Jon....wake up.
No, I don't read racism into it. Should we live a life void of offense ? Many people here offended me by the things they said, but it's okay. I don't take any of it personally. I'll still love on the haters.
Thanks again, Cory
That was very enjoyable.
I guess when we talk about quality we have to be specific. The machines made today certainly aren't robust like these were and the fact that these were built with US steel compared to some of the flimsy metal coming from Asia.
Ask the people who lost homes and families in the wildfires and the earthquakes and the mudslides and floods that are happening all over the globe right now how the Earth is doing
Yes my machine was built in China. It doesn't look like any of the other ge's that are sold in this country. It's clear they were trying to emulate Bosch by the design of the spray arms they used over 10 years ago. GE as an appliance company is not GE anymore.
Unfortunately I needed a...
Can confirm what you say Chet as I'm sure anyone who has ever had a WP power clean dishwasher can attest to. I had my portable Whirlpool quiet wash for 30 years and not once... and I mean not once has the machine ever left any bits on the grate or the bottom of the tub. I sprayed very lightly...
If Whirlpool keeps going the way they're going they too will go under. Love them or hate them, it would be tragic to lose our last U.S.based full line appliance manufacturer.
