Chet, I remember looking at dishwashers in about 1983 and looked at Whirlpool and GE and was not impressed, even the WP seemed cheap and I knew from people who we knew who had apartments that GE and Hotpoint was loud. Then Sears had a sale and to me, the Kenmore actually looked better. I could...

What refrigerant are you using now that R12 has been banned for decades?

But it ROARED Like A Power Mower! I wonder if that is one reason why Sears went with D&M instead of GE for their dishwashers because even D&M was less loud, at least when they were new (got noisier later on)

When did Whirlpool stop calling KA dishwashers KUD? I think the last was KUD25, then they went to the tall tubs with different model numbers.

The longest lasting furnace is a boiler Houses with hydronic hot water heat will not need a new boiler for at least 30 years. My sister had a 90 year old house and the second boiler was installed in 1948, the previous boiler was coal and this one is gas. Not all that efficient but as of...

If you ever worked cleaning in a commercial setting, you will want a commercial quality vacuum in your own home too. I always had the Windsor models when the employer provided the vacuum. For other places I worked I often would bring in my vacuums that I were used by my extended family (and...

Actually, I think this is for older Speed Queen models.

Actually, I thought the settings on a military washer would be for different branches of the service, with the Marines having the most intense cycle. Space Force would not have one since all their uniforms are dry cleaned.

Chetlaham Is this for real oor is this a machine panel you made up? I would think an Army machine might have a camoflage cycle, a Navy one a whites cycle and blue cycle, and an Air Force one a blues cycle.

I have to wonder: Did the Westinghouse front loader back then cost about the same, adjusted for inflation, as a Speed Queen front loader today?

I wonder what, if adjusted for inflation, a Westinghouse front loader from the 60s would cost today, I suspect as much as a Speed Queen at $2400

Dryer sheets were heavily used at a bad place in my life, it was a college and students often used multiple sheets. Later, someone used multiple sheets in the neighborhood and it was triggering.

Well Yes, but I don't know if any more exist anymore that are not worn out and are there any parts anymore?

eeezuss! Calm down Chet! You're liable to crap your pants. :poop: Chet, I cannot help but ask: Are you getting enough fiber in your diet? I don't think you are. Metamucil every day for the rest of your life will keep you and me happy.

I can tell you are from Pennsylvania, our typical breakfast.

Consumer reports rates a Hamilton Beach model that makes pop up toast high. GE toaster ovens turned into Black and Decker models that rate well too.
