    i know its longterm planing but what to chose vntage dm kenmore dishwasher or vintage kitchenaid

    I would go with the Kenmore first, no matter what others may say, I know it's a D&M design, but it is a true 2 level wash system that the Kitchenaid is not (1 wash arm on the bottom). You will be able to load more in the Kenmore than the Kitchenaid and it will come clean. I have the KitchenAid...

    1/19/20 POD Kitchenaid Dishwasher

    If I loaded my Kitchenaid dishwasher that is in today's POD it would not clean the bowls in the top rack or the bottom rack of the dishwasher. Those bowls would not get any water action from the wash arm as they are in the wrong position of the racks. They need to be turned around to face the...

    Washer Water Inlet Valves Question

    I had to do a washer repair on my washer, and since I had to disconnect the hoses, I cleaned out the screens on the inlets for the water. I noticed that the water inlet valves for the whirlpool direct drive washer from 1991 have very small inlet holes for the water to enter. I am curious as to...

    Hotpoint POD 10-12-19

    Just wondering, this Hotpoint washer has a solid tub yet it has a full time lint filter built in just like Whirlpool does. Yet the Hotpoint tub is solid, so does this tub fill up until it is overflowing and then continue to fill until a pressure switch is satisfied? Is it just like early...

    Old General Electric air conditioner

    GE Thinline AC Thats a GE Thinline model from the early 1960's. GE made the tall Thinline unit as you have and another unit that was not as high and had 5 vents across the top of the unit for air discharge. These units very good units for the day. I would tip that unit so it sits as it would as...

    How good are Hobart kitchenaid dishwashers?

    Well you could hook up a power cord to the machine and pour in a gallon or so of hot water and let the seals expand for a half hour or so. Then put the machine on drain and drain it back into the bucket. Cycle it off and put another gallon or 2 into the machine and see if it runs on the rinse...

    Kitchenaid KDS-17 Help

    Congrats on getting a Kitchenaid kds17. I agree with JohnL and don't ditch your WP dishwasher for this one. I have a KDS17 as a backup machine and being that it only has one wash arm on the bottom of the tub does have its limitations, especially when loading it as you have to make sure that...

    USPS and Their Bogus "Delivered" Status

    The postal service has gone downhill. We share a zipcode with another town, and we had a good postal worker who used to deliver the mail by noontime, and he did a good job at what he had to do. I talked to him many times, and he told me he was being moved to another route and someone else was...
