    First wash in TSPP

    I thought that was backwards ;) I found that odoban at Sams, it came with a bonus spray bottle of diluted, works well on the trash can and the seats and carpet in the car. I put about a teaspoon in the fabric softener drawer, a little goes a long way Scott's not a big fan so I try to use the...

    First wash in TSPP

    So ordered a 5 lb bag on amazon of tri sodium poly phosphate ( I hope I'm not twisting the order again!) so tried out a teaspoon in the sink and it was amazing, it made the water so soft even without soap it felt really slick. There were a few small clumps in the bottom, it looked like some of...

    My future country kitchen

    I started reading this post today from the beginning and have to say, I was so engrossed in the whole story and when I just read the steel cabinets were stolen, I was devistated! Very sorry that happened, something else will come along I'm sure, even better!

    History of the Sunbeam Vista Mixmaster

    Just got a taupe mixmaster model 12. Absolutely love it! Never wanted a stand mixer bc I didn't like the lack of control but now I wouldn't go back. Totally changed the wAy I cook, mainly desserts but that's important too! Loved the history of them..

    Space age washer, sorta

    Problem though was it smelled grotesque. Giving FL a bad name :(

    Space age washer, sorta

    Saw this at this great resale store today, concept of goodwill but way better. Anyway, I thought the angles and styling was interesting. Like they really tried and went all out with specific knobs etc instead of standards.

    Say hello to my new LG

    That's very similar to ours. I really love it, it really cleans well and doesn't wear the clothes at all.

    SQ vs. other companies

    I took the center cap off to see why the upper part of the agitator seemed like it was slipping and not really turning the load, it's because it was slipping.. the cams inside were worn and not locking in the forward motion, easy fix probably but for someone else in the near future. But I also...

    SQ vs. other companies

    I'll just say the rest dont make em like they used to.. This old Whirlpool got some of the nastiest work rags clean everytime we used it. A capful of unflavored ALL and the heaviest cycle it had, which as you can see is limited and really clean towels emerged. It might be hard to see the washer...

    Laundry Detergents

    And remember jkbff, a front loader will saturate the clothes regardless of how many are in the tub and just a little more water, so it usually seems to be the same amount of water, but if you wrung out all the clothes in there, there would be a huge difference in the actual amount of water from...

    Laundry Detergents

    I don't know if it's the detergent, or the combination of members mark liquid, baking soda and dog pee that was saturated on the towel I'm washing, but I've got suds for days! I usually never have a problem with suds lock on my LG FL, but I don't think it's ever been this much before.. We shall...

    CHEAP vintage televisions - Richmond

    i know its heresy, but some of those would make some cool fish tanks.. i have a picture of the den in our new house from 1958 with a fanatastic tv set on 4 long tapered legs. too small to see what brand etc, but very cool..

    Kenmore Ultrawash III

    Good things come to those who wait ;) I like the contemporary style buttons on the front. Very late 80s early 90s next generation euro quality style. And a built in disposer is essential IMO!

    Which Waring Blendor Is Older?

    turquoisedude, yea it was an immediate turnoff. ive seen a few sunbeams around i may contact the guy who refurbs them and find just the right one. i hate to make the nutone jealous, esp since he has to live in the same spot all his life but, even as a blender, pretty pathetic :P

    Which Waring Blendor Is Older?

    Saw this at GW today but it was pretty light weight. Idk which stand mixer I want but I know it's got to be heavy duty quality. The but in nutone is cool but the beater mechanism is locked up and the usable space in the bowl due to the tower, like a bundt pan, is really small. Hmmm, sunbeam?
