I have to say, after watching that poor gentleman stuggling over that Midea washer....... that so-called appliance is nothing but a bunch of garbage, crap, plain and simple! Plastic brackets? Flimsy parts? Oh... and anything, and I don't care what brand it is, that uses that pathetic "disk" for...

We rarely ever see opossums wandering around, the nearest park is about 2 or 3 miles away.

There's a stray cat that haunts the neighborhood here. Last week, it sat on my front patio several times, meowing real loud, even screaming. The patio is directly below my bedroom windows, you can imagine the noise when trying to get some sleep at 1AM. I cured that critter real quick..... I kept...

Suzy Homemaker......Barbie soiled her unmentionables.

As far as "new" companies or corporations are concerned, I always get the sense that they are not as reputable as they claim. Because it seems that an across-the-board mentality has become an increasing part of commerce. And the results of it are not really a benefit to the consumer. In plain...

Now THAT'S a real feat! Last night when I performed the preventive "oiling" of the water pump bearing wick (thanks to qsd-dan), I inspected the insides for anything not right. Asides from a bit of surface dust and some harmless splashing likely due to max-fill suds flinging over the tub-top...

Gotcha! I've got some Zoomspout oil in fact! EDIT: Your'e right Dan! I just took the front off and yes, it's got the flatblade screw in front. I took my time and let the oil wick into the hole for a few minutes, done deal now. I turned the pulley by hand a few times and it seemed free, no...

So.. I gotta remove that screw first? How bout those small holes near it on the casing?

I'm not so concerned about "dates", however the manual that I have in my hand right now is a model TBX18ZLS The label inside the freezer door says TBX18Z Another number above the "specifications listing" is 203C2570P003 And the document's page is dated 12/89

In the spirit of this thread "Christmas Tree And Lights" Allow me to share this memorable 2 minute video......

Wow, it looks like my post #46 has apparently opened up a great heartwarming journey of Ruth's history here!

I was given a new-in-box Patton utility space heater a while back. They still make this model. All steel, sturdy, and throws a nice heat out. Has a low-high heat setting, and thermostat adjustment. Also has a "tip over" protection to shut it off Not particularly pretty, but great for my home...

My 1985 GE 18cf top freezer fridge owners/service manual states that it uses 5 3/8 ounces of R-12.

It's interesting to note that my Maytag A482, made in 1985ish, has never needed any "oiling" of its pump. Surely, the previous owners of the house before me bought the Maytag set new, (I have the owners & installation manuals) and had a typical sized family with children, so that machine was...

Oh Jerome, come on now! Don't you want to have a nice telephone call from your laundry machines? The washer could tell you in a nice pleasent voice the status of your wash load.... "Hello Jerome!.... you're laundry is finished now, and I managed to remove the stains in your boxer shorts...

Ya know, Mike, I've never liked those "fixed" filter switches either. I suppose some find them convenient. My Console's got "real knobs" for bass & treble, if I need to adjust the sound. So does the jukebox. In the console, RCA designed in a fancy dual-tapped volume control that gives that...

A local legend......Sort of like Dick Clark here in Philly with his American Bandstand tv show. I used to watch it after school on our 23" black & white console tv. And yes, I used to dance in front of the tv to those old songs. That's how I perfected Chubby Checker's "The Twist".

WOW Barry! You're a regular history book! (Or did ya search that up on Wikipedia) 🕵️‍♂️

Tom, I have a download of Ruth Lyon's "Have a merry merry merry Christmas" Partly because it's a campy old tune, and it's also featured in John Waters cult movie "Female Trouble" with "Divine" after "she" beats up her parents on Christmas day and runs into the woods getting molested by a...

Indeed, hang onto it, because there's plenty of threads/topics on this site of how crappy and unreliable new products have become.. My 39 year old Maytag's still running like new, go figure.
