    Look Before You Reach In.........

They heard it in the ceiling,saw it behind a fridge. They left powder on the floor to see if they could track its crawlings. Thanks...

    Look Before You Reach In.........

    Is this really possible? I find it hard to believe a snake that size could make it thru the water lines and into a washer. Thru the fresh water,can't imagine,All washer have screens from the water supply to the machine itself. Thru the discharge hose maybe, but would there not be lint filters...

It didn't get a bid and I assume was trashed. I would have took it home if I had a truck. Just noticed in this weeks paper...

    GE PotScrubber I have in front of me the July 17 1979 Woman's Day magazine. There is a two page spread of your dishwasher. It has a quote from Mrs Brenda Dixon from Dallas Texas. She says, "I was skeptical.I didn't think my Potscrubber 111 dishwasher would get off dried bbq sauce." "It is the...

    The Aberdeen Farm

    Just wondering,what is the Aberdeen farm? I'm sure this has been discussed to death, but just wondering ,is it a municipal dump, private junk yard etc. Did you have to pay for what you took out,can you still take appliances and does it still exist?

    The Neighbors are shocked

    Hi Eddy Thanks for the info on the washer. It must be a lot older than your washer. All the ones shown in the catalogues only show 1 lever or handle. I watched your video and it makes me want one twice as bad. For a powerful looking agitator it certainly didn't splash any water out. It is...

    Anniversary (appliance), cominng up, what to get?!

    Oh, don't spoil her! Maybe some of those mesh plastic things you can buy at the craft store to put in the silverware basket. I have had great luck with them even in the hot dry cycle. Kitchen Aid dishwahers are male, the rest are female.

    The Neighbors are shocked

    another question So when the washer was washing did you just put the pump on drain and it would pump the water thru the filter? Or did the washer do it automatically when you started it? Your deluxe model was also insulated? It must be as heavy as hell.

    The Neighbors are shocked

    Liking the Viking The agitator in the Viking, is it called the Turbo vane? I was looking in my stash of old Eaton's catalogues and it was mentioned in the 1964 models but no pic. Your washer was heavily featured from 1974 on, probably before too. Your deluxe model that is shown in the catalogue...

    "Makes a great ice bucket..."

    My grandmother on the farm had one and so did my aunt. My Granny had 7 kids and my aunt had 5. Their washers didn't have the showy legs, but the full skirt. When my aunt left the farm in the early 80's she brought it with her and then was embarrassed by it and bought her first automatic. It was...

    Washers and Septic Systems

    one reason they clog and back up, I have heard one of the reasons septic systems get backed up is do to lint. With so many modern fibers made out of synthetic fibers, they don't break down naturally like wool or cotton.

    If you weren't doing laundry in there you could operate it is so clean!Even your dust pans are spotless. Did Maytag ever make round wringers or were they always square? The washer without the pump, if you let down the hose, will water start running out or do you have to pull a leaver? Our...
