    GAIN pods (flings)

    Tried them for the first time today On 2 whites loads and a load of darks with some Downy unscented softener and after drying (without dryer sheets) I think they would smell a tad bit strong for someone with allergies but for me they are not overpowering for day clothes. I don't really like the...

    GAIN pods (flings)

    I was at Wal-Mart in the US today and saw that gain had its own line of pods now, I only saw 2 scents available which were Original and Lavender moonlight or something along those lines. I picked up a bag of the Original ones which look like Ariel Pods from the UK if you've ever seen them...

    Spin Drain vs Neutral Drain

    Well, I know these machines aren't even made any more bu I have always liked these machines and always thought the Maytag Performa/Atlantis platform machines would have been more reliable if they had electric pumps that did a neutral drain before the washer immediately started spinning, putting...

    new line of kenmor topload washer (2014)

    New VMW belt drive washers Are complete garbage in my eyes! They perform very poorly in terms of cleaning, they are noisy, constantly go off balance, have cheap plastic parts and apparently, cheap bearings! Here is a video of a 2 year old, that's right 2 YEAR OLD Kenmore belt drive that...

    Maytag Neptune bearings

    Ok, thanks for your advice! Obviously you know what your talking about with all those Neptunes! and yes I agree that a big part of preventing bearing failure in any washer, front load or top load is using warm or hot water, and I still use bleach for my whites as well. I have so far not had...

    Maytag Neptune bearings

    For all you Maytag Neptune owners out there, please give me some advice. I'm always a bit wary when purchasing used appliances but I found a good deal on a 2007 Maytag Neptune front load washer (NOT Samsung version) that looks immaculate on the outside, and the ad states that it works good too...

    How to hook up multiple washers in one room

    I am soon to be moving into a house with an unfinished basement and I would like to get all my washers out of storage that I have collected over the years and something I have always wanted to do was have all my washers hooked up so that I could use whatever one I wanted instead of having 1...

    whirlpool ultimate care 2 washer for sale for $400.00

    Probably! That's why I got rid of it...the suspension rods would creak terribly after the first few uses during the wash cycle, I assumed it was poor lubrication and figured if they cant even lubricate suspension rods properly than the rest of the washer must be of very poor quality so I sold...

    Well..... I think what we are trying to say is, no matter the age...unless its less than 5 years old you will have to sell it for AT LEAST half the price or less. Were just trying to let you know that nobody would ever dream of paying that much for a 7 year old washer no matter how well it...

    Frigidaire/Kenmore 417 front load replacement

    Can someone tell me if these new Frigidaire front loaders are the replacement for the old Kenmore/Frigidaire front load washers? There is one that looks identical to the Frigidaire Affinity branded as a Kenmore on the Sears website so they must be. Would any of the internals be the same as...

    are you sure you are using the 100% of the capacity of your washer?

    I plug mine half full I have a traditional top load washer that is about 3.5 Cu.Ft and I feel that I can stuff it about half way or a little more and still get good circulation. Personally I am impressed at how much I can fit in one load especially compared to Whirlpool direct drive top load...

    New Speed Queen AWN542 owner here

    The way I look at it... We are more likely to run of dirt than water. One thing I never understood is why front loaders use so little water for one cycle, after a few cycles it would be using just as much as a top loader so it doesn't really matter if were saving a little bit of water, some of...

    New Whirlpool VMW/ Belt drive washers

    Watched that video a few years ago And couldn't agree more for the most part. And you're right, even if these were reliable washers under the hood you would probably NEVER see one of them last as long as a direct drive because of all the electronics, but I guess durability is not an issue for...

    New Whirlpool VMW/ Belt drive washers

    I want everyone to give their honest opinion on how they like the new belt drive washers or what they think of them and I don't want anyone smashing peoples posts because they disagree or have a different opinion! Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and as we all know some of you love...

    What is your actual daily driver for your clothes (washers from 1970 to today:

    Norgetag My daily driver is a 2005 Maytag Ensignia top load washer. Though it has had lots of repairs and I cant always count on it lasting for more than a few years without problems I can always count on it to get everything clean! I call it a piece of junk sometimes now but I remember when it...

    Norge-tag/Amana-tag washer question/ tub seal and bearing questions

    As I have written on at least two posts now I replaced the transmission and tub seal/bearing kit on my norgetag in early July and it is making a sound in the spin cycle as though a bearing is going already! Last time I posted about it it was just making a little (hardly noticeable) scratchy...

    Something wicked this way comes! A White WestingQueen?

    Speed Queen should really come out with some new agitator de Especially since their top load washers have no features other than speed selection and Extra Rinse for extra features. I think it would be nice if they'd come out with one like the one that is on that video with a bit of an updated...
