Selling, I guess... Thanks for all the advice here. But after discussing it with the other half, it looks like this range will be leaving us. I took some photos for Craigslist and thought I'd also post them here. Enjoy! And thanks again for the advice!

Selling, I guess... After a prolonged discussion with the other half, it looks like the Filter-Flo's fate is to be sold. I took some photos for craigslist and thought I'd post here also. Enjoy!

Hi all, I recently purchased a home from the original owner (80-year-old widow). The home came with some very nice vintage appliances. The kitchen was equipped with matching GE coppertone appliances - range and fridge. Both in beautiful coppertone color! I love the "sunburst" effect that they...

Hi all, I recently purchased a Bosch 500 dishwasher (SHP65T55UC). One of the reasons I wanted this machine was because its famous for being quiet. Most reviewers claim that they can't hear it running. However, the machine makes much more noise than I thought it would. I will often be woken up...

Hi all, This is my first post here :) I'm sure there have been posts on this topic before, but I couldn't find a comprehensive post on the topic - just random complaints here and there. Anyway, I'm in the market for a new washing machine, and am trying to sort through what's real and what's...
