    Henkel to divest Retailer Brands business in North America

    Are the Kirkland dishwasher pods and laundry powder made by Henkel?

    Speed Queen Dishwasher!!

    I've tried not to pre rinse my dishes out before, hated that. Makes the dishwashers stink by letting it sit, got clogged two or three times even after scrapping them off, and doesn't fully clean all the dishes at least on my aunt's LG. I don't care what Jerome thinks but I'm sticking to what my...

    Finish or Cascade

    Been using Cascade for as long as I can ever remember. Always loved the liquid kind liquid. Pods worked great but recently gave up on them due to excessive suds. I just got the powder kind and that's been my new favorite. Unfortunately I hadn't been too impressed with Finish. In fact just a...

    NEW WASHERS?

    Sharp does have dishwashers here in the US. From my understanding they're made by Midea. Based on the reviews that I've read, they don't appear to last for very long and their customer service is difficult to work with. As much as I like Sharp, for those reasons I don't think I'd want to buy a...

    NEW WASHERS?

    That's be cool if Panasonic ever came to the US with washers and dryers. Same with Sharp as well, they're two of my favorite Japanese brands.

    Kenmore Home Depot Appliances

    To determine who makes Kenmores, they have a code and it's the first three numbers. For example if it starts with 110 like my 90 Series washer, then it was made by Whirlpool. I'd love it if SEBO made vacuums for Kenmore again, doubt it but you can still buy new SEBO vacuums today that are like...

    Whirlpool 27 Inch Dryers

    Having used both before, it appears from my experience that the 29" models dry better. Can't say reliability wise between the two but I have a Estate dryer that was bought back in 2014 I believe and it's been holding up really well so far without any problems. In my opinion it's the second best...

    National Vacuum Day

    Very cool John, I love those 80's Kenmores! Thankfully there's a Galaxie GA-100 you can buy today that has the same cyclonic design as your Kenmore and Whirlpool. Panasonic at one point had a couple of central vacs just like the Kenmore and Whirlpool when they took over the vacuum business but...

    National Vacuum Day

    Very cool John! You might get a kick out of these videos from Owen Perkins who's a central vac dealer in Chicago. What kind of systems do you personally have in your homes? I'd love to have a Aqua-Air or a DrainVac Automatik central vac if I could, not sure if that'd ever happen though because...

    National Vacuum Day

    Today is February 4th and it's National Create A Vacuum Day where it's technically talking about spaces void of matter. And you celebrate by creating your own vacuum as a science experiment. But you can also celebrate by just using a vacuum cleaner to clean your home and enjoy just how cool in...

    If speed queen added dishwasher to there line of products would you buy one?

    I bet Jerome doesn't realize that once upon a time SQ did in fact had a dishwasher along with other major kitchen appliances. I just found this out not too long ago. https://www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREAD.cgi?55285 IF they were to come back to the dishwasher market, the way I...

    2017 Speed Queen 9 series Top Load 5 Year Maintenance

    I don't know if you do this or not but if it were my machine, I'd also do a self cleaning round with a full tub of hot water and bleach. SQ recommends running a self cleaning cycle with baking soda and vinegar. And I've seen one user use CLR to clean his machine. I don't know if washer tablets...

    "Dish O'Rama"

    Nope Absolutely not! Such a terrible idea. Why on earth would I ever want to carry dishes out to a dish mat? Chances to trip over and break the dishes, wastes more time and money than just washing dishes by hand, and who knows what's been inside the dishwashers from other people. Either I wash...

    Frigidaire Dishwasher OrbitClean Spray Arm Issue

    Regarding Frigidaire From my experience Frigidaire seems to be good. Actually my local appliance technician said that his recommendation for a new fridge or stove today would be Frigidaire which I'd definitely consider. I really did liked the 2004 Frigidaire dishwasher my grandfather had until...

    Comparing Available Powder Detergents

    I finally gave it a shot I accidentally put in a little more than I should the first time but I was very pleased with it! Unlike the Kirkland pods, there were no suds at all which really impressed me. I think I found my new favorite dishwasher detergent:) I still love using Kirkland pods but I...

    Do you use heated dry on your dishwasher?

    I was off Apparently the insulation is still on after further look. I guess I only saw the insulation get taken off by the technician to get inside the machine.

    Do you use heated dry on your dishwasher?

    Our sound insulation on the KitchenAid had to be removed after a year or two of owning it because it overheated the dishwasher or caused the motor to burn out, can't remember which was which. But I could barely tell the difference since it's so quiet unlike our Maytag we had before. That being...

    Comparing Available Powder Detergents

    I'm about to pick up some Cascade Complete powder this weekend and try out to see how well it does, I've never used powder before in my KitchenAid and I have soft water. Loved the liquid kind but the last jug left some water marks on the glasses. And the pods were foaming a bit more than the...

    Switching back to using powder

    I rarely use cold wash, the only times I would is whenever I'd wash out some vacuum outer bags with using Kirkland powder. Warm wash for darks and hot for whites. My parents used to use Cheer but still kept some of the empty boxes around so that's what got me interested, my mom said Tide worked...
