    Meet Sheila!

    Well now comes one important feature that my old car did better… The driver’s under dash light is confined to this one corner… It’s a little light bulb up in a hole pointing downward like a spotlight but only in that area… Which explains why the light comes out in a circle and not quite...

    Funny how that lowest water level setting isn’t Small or Extra Small…

    how can i protect washer dryer with electronic controls when bathroom renos begins febuary 16 2026?

    recently had our basement remodeled and the controls for our washer & dryer stayed working fine... maybe not a lot of dust got kicked up--you know: the "pardon our dust", tag that building construction gets... the lid for the washer was even open but nothing got in it... however, our...

    WCI Gibson washer

    That's a washer of which I'd like to see what the inside is like... Now those knobs: Water Level, Water Temperature and Speeds?

    Frigidaire 1-18 FREE

    Well I am a fan of those Frigidaires, from every era, even the WCI/non-GM... I wish the lint filter, though, as that Westy-basket could have stayed... They are just as good and as nice as the Norge-built, my second favorites to them...

    Meet Sheila!

    Yes, if you see that Cadillac warning light cluster, then you'll know how much I like those warning lights (or idiot lights, or LIGHTS, idiot!--lol)... Even at times, prefer them to gauges... And among my anal-retentive idiosyncrasies, would probably go digging for them, wishing I'd taken the...

    Meet Sheila!

    Well here’s the gauge cluster that must be drawn up from a “hidden setting” via touchscreen… Unfortunately you can only have one of them added to the main dash… Of which is only useful, if by chance, say: Ozzy ordered an over-sized oil pressure gauge today!

    Australian laws are introducing the “two buttons start”

    I'm afraid that is exactly what the world seems to be gravitating towards! Don't be surprised if those things are not merely optional that you can turn down when you go online or go to a bill-paying site or other product-related site you just used to need a verification codes sent on your...

    2003 Frigidaire Tub Drain Pump

    I had a guitar pick lodged in a dryer vane in my new dryer that finally came out… Funny how more guitar playing went on with the old dryer and a repair man found a couple picks there (with electric guitar work playing in my head)…

    The gold is an Imperial which is nice to see with the Superba’s adjustable racks…

    Whirlpool direct drives SUCK

    Yes, oh, yes—put out whatever most popular, efficient and in-demand features… Kitchen Aid could only build dishwashers, could as only wanting to, and made only a maximum of four or five, so just imagine company like Whirlpool doing that with its best pride of appliance making done in the...

    Whirlpool direct drives SUCK

    I liked my Kenmore direct-drive, enough that I wish I had it back… Only for the ‘90’ it was, I wonder why there was no fabric softener dispenser…

    i wish they coukd bring back classic washers and dryers with electro mechanical timer

    The thing with a lot of those is they’ll have to be replaced given the gearing will get worn at least once in a machine’s lifetime! I replaced my Kenmore’s knob and had someone put it in, that was obviously not on the actual assembly line raking pride in his work as much as a “oh no, here we...

    Is it just me or was the Speed Queen design a fairly generic design back in the day?

    I see SQ as a rather generic design myself… Stainless steel tubs and drums only mean your washer or dryer are good for being a planter when the machine is worn out and has to be discarded in ten to fifteen years with only that pristine material to be washed or dried in… Without the eye-opening...

    Meet Sheila!

    My Jeep Compass only had the engine-shaped yellow light go on and at least the temperature gauge… The Jeep Cherokee after it would at least have the red battery-shaped voltage light, and its temperature gauge, but there like the previous one, nothing about oil… —temperature or pressure…
