It can save clothes from being thrown away... As you know, my 95-year-old mother lives with me and for a while she had been taking too much stool softener and that was causing continence issues. I could not use bleach on all of her clothes, but found out about the Lysol sanitizer and even...

Is this one of those Frigidaire ovens where ... The self clean system was so complex that some people had it turned into a "regular" oven? What about current Frigidaire ovens? I have a feeling they must have a different system, maybe based on Westinghouse ovens?

I notice that the elements and sides of the range seem very close to combustible cabinets and paper. Could that be why Flairs fell out of favor,they were a fire hazard?

It is kind of like that in a hospital central sterile supply If a load of surgical instruments comes out of a steam sterilizer wet (it's not supposed to be) that whole load must be processed from the beginning again. So people who work in health care might think that about the dishwasher. As...

But won't it attract ants? I have found leaving really dirty dishes in the dishwasher for 2 or 3 days there will be ants. Running the machine will solve that but have you had ants?

Rex, if power lines are all underground and the waterproofing has a leak and there is a flood isn't it possible to short out the circuit and electrocute anyone nearby? I would also wonder if it might be harder for a utility to do a "black start" from no electricity at all, as some Florida...

Bradford... You sound like my mother who is 95 years old and has OCD and possible dementia. She insists on pre rinsing, even scraping a food particle off with her old lady nails. I tell her not to do it, it just upsets her "we have to do this!". She is also picking particles off of the...

Radio Stations are limited to 50,000 watts Tolivac, why would your radio station need a 2,200,000 watt generator to run the transmitter? Even with other systems at the station it could not possibly be that much. Maybe a total of 150,000 watts for the whole station with the AC, lighting, etc...

Was the washing action "toned down" any when Maytag took over and turned these into the Atlantis?  Did the Atlantis have the loud clunk when the cycle ended?  

They did something like that in the movie "Breaking away Some young guys found a 50 refrigerator underwater in a quarry and one of them went inside it.  The other guys dived in after him thinking he was trapped but the back was not there and he swam out.  About the most interesting part in an...

Datalady, we have the Frigidaire like yours... While we had no trouble with the shelves and ice maker, the whole unit just screams "Cheap!".  The inner liner is very thin plastic and has hairline cracks in the refrigerator and a huge crack in the middle in the freezer.  I would like to know if...

Sears used to brag about the "Porcelain Plus" interiors in some of their fridges.  Maybe energy efficiency had to do with refrigerators now plastic inside, but the PP was a lot better than thin plastic of current Frigidaire refrigerators, ours has hairline cracks in the refrigerator and a big...

John, is this oven one of the ones where you remove the self clean system and turn it into a non-self-clean oven?  Will this owner from now on have to use Easy off?

What do you use to clean the electrical parts? It seems like you could not use water, but how else would you get it so clean?

You are probably right Girl Scout cookies always had Thin Mints.   In the past there was a product for women called Maxi Thins.  And yes, the women in the commercials were unbelievably happy. 

I can be there Even if just for a visit.

I can be there Even if just for a visit.

That is one reason why I always preferred Dockers.  Dickies were always kind of rough on me too.

Was this a D&M unit? Also, the top was probably made of Westinghouse Micarta, their version of Formica.

How is Frigidaire not in trouble with the EPA over leaks? It seems to me an advanced appliance company should be able to make a leakproof refrigeration system, they did so in the past, how many 50s refrigerators are still running with their original refrigerant?
