LOL!!! I guess today is the day Jerome says “steel is not tough!” 🫠

That’s not even a bad video about the Maytag Commercial gear case. I think it refutes your own narrative.

Do not listen to Jerome. He is not a technical expert and had not even taken apart a transmission or gearbox on his own. All VMW gearboxes are similar with nylon gears. Some type of oil. Various bearings. The commercial units have beefed up seals and bearings. The GE versions are the same...

gsd-dan It will definitely fit! I must clarify, this is for the direct feed PC upper arm. NOT the tower feed. Try it out. It can’t hurt. I will caution, you may see a pressure loss in the upper rack since the PC arm has larger jet holes.

You guys are absolutely ridiculous. I am GLAD my dishwashers don’t rattle glass and flip stuff over anymore. Do you have any idea how annoying and expensive that is?! Growing up we had GE dishwashers and it was a constant issue of things getting flipped over, full of murky water and food...

Jerome it sounds like your family is very tough on, or downright abusive of appliances.

Jerome, without sounding mean or derogatory, there ARE plenty of videos out there showing modern dishwashers with wet rotor pumps, hitting their ceilings with water jets from the lower arms. I’ve made videos of this myself. You just choose to not believe reality because it disagrees with your...

Pure hallucinations by you Jerome. You’re overlaying your own opinions on other people. Granted some appliance quality has decreased over time, that’s not the wet rotor’s fault. In fact, it’s probably the fault of goofy consumers who complain about long wash times, are the same ones who...

The nice thing is, Jerome it doesn’t matter what they are to you. They are not fish tank pumps. And they seem to wash perfectly, since many companies have used these wet rotor motors for a decade now.

Ohh look. Another Lazarus thread 🙄

With good resins, good design, good sonic welding tooling, you can make plastic spray arms that won’t split. There’s plastic spray arms in 23 series KitchenAids and PC tower Whirlpools still leak free to this day.

Well, the brushes in my parents’ GE lasted at least 8 years, so there’s that. It was the pump seal that gave out first. You’re tilting at windmills at this point, since the brushes motors are out and wet rotors are now in.

Ooooph. Ooooph. This might be record for dumbest thread I’ve read yet. Yes the GE brush motors suck in the sense their shaft seals were bad. Not so much the brushes. My parents and I both had GE brush motor dishwashers and they both leaked at the shaft seal. My parents’ base cabinets were...

Interesting! I kinda like those little spinners. But that’s a lot of little parts that could break. Like others have said. There’s no patent on that style of 3rd rack, but WP does have the patent on the dual spinning tubes. So I guess Samsung had to come up with another solution.

Invensys maybe? They used to own RobertShaw and spun them off. RS is now independent again, based in Itasca, IL. They used to make all the water valves somewhere near Galena, IL till Invensys moved it all to Mexico. The valves are likely all made there now.

Trisodium Dicarboxymethyl Alaninate (MGDA-Na3) is primarily a chelating agent, and its role in formulations is to bind metal ions rather than directly influence sudsing behavior. However, it can indirectly affect sudsing by stabilizing the formulation and improving the performance of surfactants...

Like Panasonicvac said, if, IF ALS somehow buys Maytag (and Amana), it would purely be for the patents and IP. ALS is totally all in on the Speed Queen name, especially since they’re making more inroads in residential. At most, they would rebadge a few TC or TR units with the Maytag logo. But...

Check to see if the wires are loose going to the drain pump. Hopefully it’s an easy fix before getting worse.

Wild coincidence. My old neighbor friends had the same washer but with the wash plate version. They loved it but it just failed a few weeks ago also. The suspension rods were shot, it bounced around. The cold inlet valve was cracked and weeping. And the drain motor started cutting in and out...

Yeah I have to agree. I'm 100% percent certain that the chemists at P&G KNOW this happens, and are compromising on suds because something else in the formula is being forced on them by either cost or marketing. Or B) the chemists' hands are tied by some kind of desire from P&G marketing, and...
