    Would a Maytag A7300 be reliable? See photo of actual washer someone is offering me. What were the production dates for this model? What sort of preventive maintenance, eg replaces rubber hoses, spring clamps, and belts, should I do even if it seems to work perfectly? Thanks

    Kenmore Portable Washer Shakes Excessively

    during the spin cycle. It looks like the photo below (note that there are NO links in this post). What should I look for when working on it? Also, these models weigh about 225 lbs, much more than full size. Why do they weigh so much? Thanks!

    Just Picked up 1996 Whirlpool Series 900 Dishwasher!

    Thanks. In my last comment, I did not include a link, only a photo. I found a small kink where the hose from the drain air gap connects to the garbage disposal. I was unable to adjust the hose or the garbage disposal to undo the kink. So I replaced the hose. In doing so, a lot of drain water...

    Just Picked up 1996 Whirlpool Series 900 Dishwasher!

    Update, Photo, and Drain Air Gap I'm running the dishwasher for the first time. It sounds normal. I followed the instructions, including ensuring that the water entering the dishwasher was at least 120' F (it was > 140' F). About five minutes after starting and well before the rinse, a lot...

    Thanks. What does bearing damage sound like?

    Speed Queen AWN432 $150. Too Good to be True?

    Thanks. You might be right about the seller being ignorant about SQ quality. I was concerned, because I don't want to waste my time checking out something that's going to need major repairs that the seller didn't disclose. Is it reasonable when buying used to do a test load?

    Speed Queen AWN432 $150. Too Good to be True?

    I'm looking for a back-up washer. Someone is selling his/her Speed Queen AWN432 for only $150. Photos show a clean washer inside and out without any apparent damage. The stated reason is that his/her new place already has a washer. I find it hard to believe that someone would sell his/her...
