    New Speed Queen Models Coming Soon!

    And that for me is very, very painful. The system does not take kindly to dissent. It is either comply or get broken which sets an example for the rest. Like 100 horses pulling a cart. If one slows down or stops the rest pummel over you due to the inertia of the system. I think education and...

    New Speed Queen Models Coming Soon!

    If everyone was like me the first thing they would look for in a machine is an electromechanical control system followed by the tech sheet and parts list. If the machine has electronics, has excessive complexity, or does not have a simple switching timer sequencing the components the machine...

    Samsung 220 volt-Vented Combo Has Been Delivered - First Impressions

    My guess: energy efficiency. US machines are being biased more and more to default to a cooler setting and/or regulated settings like reduced warm, cool and tap cold water instead of hot and 50/50 warm. Most top load US washers today will not let the hot water setting go above 100*F and warm...

    Samsung 220 volt-Vented Combo Has Been Delivered - First Impressions

    Perhaps not the place to say it but I will say it. HE is a scam. An electro-mechanical toploader with a resource saver spray rinse provides the ultimate in cleaning, performance, water and energy savings.

    Why Has Whirlpool Never Sold a BOL Power Clean Module?

    Do it, get a power clean and try it out. Verify that the filer, pump and chamber are good. Full water charge, spray arm seals ok, no clogged holes ect. Then run it through various tests. I'm curious if you will like a Power Clean Filter Module as much as I do. Also as a tip: turn down the temp...

    Why Has Whirlpool Never Sold a BOL Power Clean Module?

    I get your point, however I feel your exaggerating the limitations of the separation process. Yes, what you say is partly true, but it nowhere near as bad or common as you make it out to be. At least it was not for me and I loaded what I could soil wise.

    Why Has Whirlpool Never Sold a BOL Power Clean Module?

    Drain impeller, and a brilliant location to place it. By having a drain impeller at the lowest point in the machine your reduce water carry over which decreases the amount of water a cycle needs to use while drastically increasing cleaning and rinsing. I feel all these horizontal designs which...

    Why Has Whirlpool Never Sold a BOL Power Clean Module?

    Well, if you ignore probability. You're forgetting that particles will repeat this path dozens of times per minute, eventually, in the 40+ minutes of re-circulation they will all enter the filter chamber. Kenmore had a power shower which prevented things from settling on the concaves of bowls...

    Why Has Whirlpool Never Sold a BOL Power Clean Module?

    Something must be wrong with your module, water charge, or the loading is not correct. Any particles or food soils in the water will eventually make it through the fine filter, even if only a fraction of the water is forced into the filter chamber at any given second. The final rinse on latter...

    Why Has Whirlpool Never Sold a BOL Power Clean Module?

    Don't get me wrong though, there are still a lot of food soils that tall tubs can remove, and clean all those soiled items to immaculate results. Tall tubs do have the advantage of fine filtration where any spec of food or coffee ground won't be recirculated and re-deposited on the tableware...

    GE dishwasher lies...

    Only because in post #41 used some less than friendly language direct at myself "dribble" and "crap" while receiving 7 likes and then insinuating I was still engaged in said back and forth debate when I stopped months ago...

    Why Has Whirlpool Never Sold a BOL Power Clean Module?

    In a good dishwasher there are no after odors. All traces of food is gone, and what little water remains in the mechanism is clear and sparkly.

    Why Has Whirlpool Never Sold a BOL Power Clean Module?

    Jerome is visually impaired, so he needs a guide as to what is going on inside. Though at the same time a pre-wash with a thermal hold that could last 20 minutes might be better off not leaching any fragrances into the room.

    Why Has Whirlpool Never Sold a BOL Power Clean Module?

    Things are taken at face value. They hear to noise of a Power Clean, but fail to realize the brief noise is well worth it on behalf of its utility.

    Why Has Whirlpool Never Sold a BOL Power Clean Module?

    1/3 HP motor with a 1.15 service factor is my minimum. True load and go when paired with a large pump and processing module.

    Why Has Whirlpool Never Sold a BOL Power Clean Module?

    Sadly, that is true. Commercial machines are meant to take in predominantly pre-rinsed dishes. Commercial dishwashers are if anything meant for sanitizing. The only reason I am consider one is because of build quality which is very appealing to me. The good news is dish machines are getting...

    Why Has Whirlpool Never Sold a BOL Power Clean Module?

    I personally am that same such that for me I have a need but for only one cycle: Heavy / Pots and Pans. I let the machine get get full, crusty, and don't like to prep at all beyond general scrapping if the machine will let me. Pots and Pans go in as is. I add detergent, start and walk away. I...

    Jerome, you know me to well. And, reverse rack of course. This is how I imagine a modern reverse rack: Before anyone bemoans me about the above being a fantasy, here is the Ebay link...

    Why Has Whirlpool Never Sold a BOL Power Clean Module?

    I 100% agree with you minus the complexity statement. The Power Clean was just to different than what the market and government wanted at face value. So production seized. 2013 was a dark year for me. You're correct that you can't get a residential standard tub anymore. A shame really, because...
