    Water cooling dispenser recommendation

    This is about as expensive as a refrigerator but should last forever. It has a built in filter too. https://www.globalindustrial.com/p/ada-water-filtered-cooler-light-gray-granite-wall-hung-115v-60hz-5-amps-1

    Water cooling dispenser recommendation

    Have you considered a commercial water fountain? May be expensive but should last forever and there are used ones out there. It's also possible to place a filter before the fountain.

    PineSol vs chlorine bleach

    But it Smells like Public Toilets! That is what mom always said about Pine Sol and Lestoil and I was never allowed to bring those home. My sister later said, "That's because you work in nursing".

    ‘Non-Toxic’ Detergent Brand Caused Bacterial Infections, Lawsuit Claims

    So what about the ripoff that is Amway products? Terribly overpriced because of the multilevel marketing and not any better than other products.

    Induction gets even cheaper

    One reason Europe might be switching to induction might be because of relations with Russia, where they used to get a lot of their natural gas.  There is fear that the gas supply is or may be cut off so use of electricity keep energy in Europe.

    I bet and lost; Goodbye Fridgidaire All Fridge

    This is where we need government intervention.. The Federal EPA should be putting pressure on Frigidaire to make a leak proof product. Even though today's refrigerants are less harmful they still have to be recovered and still harm the environment. Meanwhile a 50s Frigidaire with the nasty...

    Who was the largest and most advanced technologically in your opinion?

    Had to be GE and Whirlpool... In the case of GE Appliances they had the deep pockets of the parent GE company. Westinghouse and GM Frigidaire were supposed to be the most innovative but were far from the largest production. I think Frigidaire was considered an expensive brand back then, not a...

    Magic Chef Dishwashers History

    GE was a lower priced dishwasher The Maytag would have cost more and since Magic Chef was a "budget" line of appliances, consumers would be put off by the inordinately higher price. That Magic Chef looks like the KenRoar I have in my mud room.

    Induction gets even cheaper

    Could this have been a Westinghouse invention? Having lived in Pittsburgh we always heard about something from them. Electrolux/Frigidaire appliances today are based on Westinghouse appliances in the past (I think). About 50 years ago I remember I was young and saw a news report on KDKA TV...

    Its a Good Thing I Cleaned The Oven

    So John, what disposers should we buy? Do you recommend going all the way to the ISE Evolution series as a replacement disposal? Or can we go with the higher priced Badger? I guess stay away from the low priced ones that are galvanized? Or should we get that "other kind" that is like GE or...

    Garage heater / Installation opinions

    I say Door Number 2 It looks like you would soon be "maxed out" with very few extra circuits left on Door Number 1. By the way, there must be a larger breaker on Door Number 1 that feeds Door Number 2, what is the maximum ampacity of that breaker?

    Are laundry sanitizers worth it?

    It can save clothes from being thrown away... As you know, my 95-year-old mother lives with me and for a while she had been taking too much stool softener and that was causing continence issues. I could not use bleach on all of her clothes, but found out about the Lysol sanitizer and even...

    Frigidaire Flair that didn't have a drawer?!?!?!?

    Is this one of those Frigidaire ovens where ... The self clean system was so complex that some people had it turned into a "regular" oven? What about current Frigidaire ovens? I have a feeling they must have a different system, maybe based on Westinghouse ovens?

    Frigidaire Flair Removal

    I notice that the elements and sides of the range seem very close to combustible cabinets and paper. Could that be why Flairs fell out of favor,they were a fire hazard?

    the dishwasher detergent thing and the bleach

    It is kind of like that in a hospital central sterile supply If a load of surgical instruments comes out of a steam sterilizer wet (it's not supposed to be) that whole load must be processed from the beginning again. So people who work in health care might think that about the dishwasher. As...
