    ...and then, that thing on the ceiling went off...

    OMG Thomas We had a large family gathering once and left a big pan of chicken bathed in BBQ sauce in the oven and forgot about it. Weeks passed...might have been a month...before we used the oven again and I turned it on to preheat without looking inside. The chicken was spoiled and had mold...

    LG Front Load Washer Tub Movement

    normal operation I think what you describe is quite normal. I have an LG front loader and occasionally it will thump against the cabinet as it goes into spin, especially on a heavy/unbalanced load. Sometimes it will balance as it ramps up and proceed into a smooth spin, and once in a while if...

    Appliances in the Opening of the Stepford Wives - 2004 Version

    I remember seeing this movie and those opening scenes. (Loved the character Bette Midler played.) I recall the scene with the flat-front Westy Laundromat, but looking at the photo (number 7) I noticed the washer and dryer are not a matched set. Didn't catch that in the movie. Also, in that...

    WSJ Editorial Board: Make Dishwashers That Clean Again

    long dishwasher cycles? I don't really get that complaint. Are they waiting for the dishwasher to finish so they can serve dinner on the clean plates? I typically turn the dishwasher on when I go to bed -- doesn't matter if it runs 30 minutes or 3 hours -- I wake up to spotless dishes. I...

    Westinghouse washing machine 1940’s???

    beautiful machine! That is one of the most beautiful wringer washers I have ever seen! True 30/40's deco style. How fortunate that it is in such good condition was relatively easy to get running again. I'm not far from you, in Orange County, but I grew up on the east coast with many relatives...

    Cool water washes lead to bacteria in washer

    good reason ...to have a washer that will heat the water to a temperature to kill those critters and disinfect the machine.

    A fabric softener question...

    I've stood in the detergent aisle at the grocery store uncapping and sniffing every softener before choosing. (May look crazy, but I don't really care what others may think. Haha) I can't stand any Downey or Gain softeners, except the Downey Free & Gentle, which is what I use for clothing. For...

    Wow! Just happened upon this set on an Indianapolis used furniture and appliance store's Facebook page. They are asking $999 for the set and claim they still work! They appear to be in perfect condition on the outside. No interior shots provided. The post is from May 22. If you scroll down...

    Tide Original HE powder

    It takes a long time to break old habits I think most Americans wanted to see some suds during their wash cycles. After decades of detergent marketing telling them "when you see a good, thick layer of Tide's suds you know your wash is getting clean," they came to believe it. Of course that was...

    Robo calls have stopped for me!!!

    We've been using the free Nomorobo app. Seems to work very well. Phone rings once and disconnects before the number or caller ID appear if it is a robocall. If you get a second ring it is a real call. I tried to get it for my mom's phone as she is harassed by robocalls, but she has AT&T...
