    Fridge Condenser Coils - Does Cleaning Really Matter

    If you have the room, (assuming coils underneath the fridge) pull the fridge out into the room and surround the perimeter of the cabinet with damp bath towels before blowing off the coils with compressed air. They will either collect the dust and hair that comes loose or at least prevent it...

    Driver's Ed Cars

    At the time, here in South Dakota a person could get a "restricted license" starting at age 14. So I did most of my practice before I got the restricted with my dad's 1970 C20 with a 307 and granny low 4spd. No power anything. Steering wheel wider than my shoulders. Took the driving test...

    "had to go and buy a new washer"

    Vacerator/Mike It's funny you mention the new Samsung U.S. plant. We've been getting several LG laundry products in lately that are also now being made in the U.S. plant as well. The LG (Korean company) products we've gotten in the past have been primarily manufactured in Vietnam, Korea, and...

    GE FF (Filter-Flo) Washer 1990 Needs Work

    I'm about an hour from you and I've got a couple motors without the clutch. If your clutch is still decent, it can be switched over. Send me an email if you're interested. I've also got a coin-op FF washer that's functional of the same vintage that you could use for parts if you like but I...

    FleaPay Now Collecting Sales Taxes

    Here in South Dakota the law was passed last year that all online merchants doing business in SD must collect state sales tax in the same way it is collected by in-state merchants. If we as a brick-and-mortar business shipped something, we have to collect sales tax on what we charge people for...

    time for a new front load washer

    If we assume these are the only two options to pick from, I'd go with the second one, the chw9160gw. A few reasons: The front panel that allows access to the pump filter. The washer design that allows individual part replacement in the tub and basket assembly -- If you look at an exploded...

    Holland Grill

    If anyone is big into outdoor grilling, we are(were) a dealer of Holland Grills and just found out this morning that the company is shutting down. No questions about continuing under a buyout or anything like that in the email they sent out to dealers. Everything has come to a complete stop...

    Retro Style Appliance Brands - Are the high quality?

    Don't know anything about Smeg, but the Big Chill line is doing exactly what is mentioned above. They used Whirlpool sourced appliances and put panel kits on them and paint cabinets as necessary. On the dishwasher line they actually offer the panel kit on its own that goes directly on a...

    Dryer Vent Hose

    The other problem with vinyl is the surface static that is generated by having airflow through it causing lint to stick even worse than it does in other types of vent. Also why rigid PVC is not recommended for dryer venting as well.

    Who made this Crosley set and opinions about Crosley

    The zdm6502as Professional isn't GE; I'm under the impression that it's a Samsung based on the little red "Orbitwash" spinner in the back corner. Haven't actually seen one in person yet.

    Who made this Crosley set and opinions about Crosley

    That set is Frigidaire/Electrolux. The topload sets are still Whirlpool built. GE/Haier recently started building kitchen pieces for Crosley. They are sold exclusively to servicing dealers and have better warranty than the basic manufacturer's models they replace. We've sold Crosley for...

    Anyone have classic cars ready for Summer cruising?

    The convertible has been out but not with the top down yet. The 442 hasn't snuck out of the garage quite yet. It's still been pretty chilly here.
