    Amana ABB1924BRW05 Fridge door opens too far

    I got this refrigerator 2 months ago, and it's just me so it doesn't get opened/closed a lot. I'll check the bottom hinge pin, but many people complain about this issue so it's the dumb way it was made. I think I figured out a fix - I have a thin piece of metal that I'm going to fashion into a...

    Westinghouse Banners

    I love these! I noticed the one banner that features the "singing signal" that plays "How Dry I Am" - did a quick search and OMG I love that this was a thing!

    Amana ABB1924BRW05 Fridge door opens too far

    Any secrets to fixing this issue? I raised the front fridge feet which helped if I only open the door about 45 degrees, but any more than that and the door swings completely open. I'd like it to stop at 100ish degrees. I thought about adding shims under the front of the fridge but I don't know...

    FREE Kitchenaid Superba - KDS21? - Decatur IL

    thanks for the correct model # I wish it was closer to me. Are these easy to fix if needed? I think I read that parts are hard to get.

    My dryer just quit. Photo of my dryer's model tag plus link to FB Marketplace replacement option.

    The actual problem was....... OY!!!!  I opened the dryer to take the door switch out and it was missing one screw and the other one had been installed through the square switch opening instead of the screw hole so it wasn't actually attached and was just dangling! I am guessing the continued...

    Manufacture year for this Hotpoint Gas range?

    The spray painted X is a great idea! I have some dayglo orange I can use.

    Manufacture year for this Hotpoint Gas range?

    I'll be getting it sometime in June! I have the same burner sizes on my current Hotpoint so I'm definitely happy about that, plus the waist-high broiler.   Other than the nice cooktop performance I've never liked the black and bisque model that came with the house. Whoever thought that...

    Manufacture year for this Hotpoint Gas range?

    woo hoo! Thanks for your input!  It's literally 7 houses away so all I will probably need to do is pay the guys who deliver/install the new appliances to bring it to me. :) I know this range is kind of boring but it's still better looking than the current offerings and I definitely know most of...

    Manufacture year for this Hotpoint Gas range?

    After all my searching off and on for a range this one fell into my lap. Someone bought a house on my street and is replacing the appliances so I claimed the range. It's certainly not as old/cool as I want and the storage drawer seems a little rickety, but it is FREE and in pristine shape...

    thank you I found switches on ebay for better pricing - they are listed as 'factory certified' so I might go with one of those. Example at the link. (link is now fixed.)   Is mine a 1997 model? Model LG5801XKW1 Serial M31k704199 You're right it is a great dryer - it came with the house when...

    good morning! Sorry, I was so tired last night I couldn't keep my eyes open. Amazing what a little manual labor in the heat will do!   So I am pretty sure it is the door switch as you suggested. Symptom: In the recent past I've had to close the door more than once or close it pretty hard to...
