    LG WM4000HWA coming Wednesday!

    GREAT!!! This is the exact model I would get if my FL died today.... But trust me, I know that feeling of agonizingly almost traumatic decision making... Should I really get this? What if this? What if that? All the what if's going through your mind... Now, let's just hope everything goes...

    I think I'm going to finally buy a front loading washer and I have many questions

    Oh crap. I totally FORGOT about that the lower model LG didn't have a heater! Also I didn't know you had on demand water. Do you have built in water hammer arrestors? If not you might think about getting some of those too I went to AJ madison last night looking at it because I could NOT see the...

    I really like the look of the new Whirlpool Front Loaders

    so if you're seeing no suds in whirlpool but more in LG becuase of recirculation, wouldn't this mean that the no suds washer still had the same amount of detergent left in the clothes, but the recirculation just amplifies that bringing it to the surface? Maybe too much detergent was used in both...

    I think I'm going to finally buy a front loading washer and I have many questions

    Well honestly, I was expecting a home laundromat front loader. This was 2005... so there weren't many that had them.. so it was totally NEW to me and there were no videos to watch or anything like that...That's about the time I joined garden web laundry forum and this forum after that...and I...

    I can't answer all your questions... HOWEVER, I will say this about Samsung so take it for what it's worth. MANY MANY people have those machines. I've watched youtube videos of a tech shopping at lowes showing the different makes and models that he recommends and he's always bashing samsung the...

    GE GFW655SSV0WW Front-Load Washer & Matching Dryer

    Yea - some use their washer every single day... Me? I don't .. I get it all done, let it build up, then do a bunch...so I can go a full week between doing laundry. I can imagine families doing laundry daily might run into issues with dispensers not ever drying out... so they would neeed to clean...

    GE GFW655SSV0WW Front-Load Washer & Matching Dryer

    Great! Even though this wouldn't be my first choice for a FL washer/dryer .. I would totally own this set before any top load washer...To me, even the worst FL washer on the market is better than modern TL washers (I'm not talking about SQ) I'm talking about all the other ones... And these are...

    Whirlpool WTW4816FW3: Bad control board and Lowes warranty issues

    Yes. I'm aware Amana, Maytag, Kitchenaid and other brands I can't think of are all Whirlpool. What on Earth would make you think I didn't realize that? LOL Haha! I know it sucks...but that's what I would do...It sounds like you MIGHT have to go through some DRAMA to get them to fix it...

    Whirlpool WTW4816FW3: Bad control board and Lowes warranty issues

    Ryan - this is what I would do personally...but I don't know your setup or if this would even work for you... but if it would work for you, I would get a front load washer instead of a top load (if that's possible for you) I don't know if your space wouldn't allow that of if that wouldn't work...

    Whirlpool Duets for Sale

    I don't consider Chlorine bleach a sin at all. Not in the least if it's used sparingly...all my towels are thick and white and soft and years old and show no signs of deterioration at all... and most importantly, they smell so clean (unlike some homes I've visted where you grab a towel after...

    Whirlpool Duets for Sale

    Gotcha... I know a lot of appliances in Europe have cold fills and the appliance heats the water...but I'm wondering, the reasoning behind America relying on their water heaters for hot washes... so what's the typical method for heating water in Europe? I mean, obviously they can take hot...

    Whirlpool Duets for Sale

    I wonder if in the USA we are ever going to have 220/240 outlets for washers... It kind of pisses me off I can't do the occasional boil wash

    I really like the look of the new Whirlpool Front Loaders

    Bob - it wasn't the normal cycle. I kind of remember you talking about that... this was the jeans cycle... And it spun/spray rinsed before the actual rinse started.. I'm not sure what you mean by "doesn't fully drain after the first sequence of the rinse" I'm guessing you mean after the interim...

    I really like the look of the new Whirlpool Front Loaders

    I mean yea... I get that... But... from the AI cycles I've seen, at least on the LG's with turbo wash, the rinses blew me away... Some guy used AI wash jeans cycle with no extra rinse...The rinse was amazing...after the interim spin, it slowed but didn't stop as it filled with water...kept...

    8 Reasons Using Liquid Detergent Is Better

    I think at some point I'm going to try Persil Pro clean... but I just don't run into a lot of difficult laundry... Only very occasionally.. and I'm usually able to deal with it with what I've gone on hand. scent toning down... I once tried this fabric softener (I forget the name) I think it was...

    I really like the look of the new Whirlpool Front Loaders

    I wonder what the odds are of seeing some of the cycles of this new whirlpool washer? First, people will buy them... but will one of those buyers be a YouTuber who likes to film cycles? I wonder what the odds are on that? I'd say, not that great. I think it's gonna be a while...I mean, at this...

    I really like the look of the new Whirlpool Front Loaders

    That GE front loader....when I watched the normal cycle...the wash was extremely low... I can deal with that so I waited for the rinses...only to see the rinses were slightly better, but not much better than the wash... that's what BUGS me.. Maybe other cycles on it are different...

    I really like the look of the new Whirlpool Front Loaders

    Interesting about the LG / storm story... We had a storm one night at midnight that was raging and lasted 2 hours non-stop.. crazy winds, lightning, extreme rain...and my duet was mid-cycle when it started...I literally went and stopped it, and unplugged it...and I remember being on the phone...

    I really like the look of the new Whirlpool Front Loaders

    Appnut... I rememeber you saying that earlier... very smart idea... I do know that guy that does appliance videos on youtube..the one that wears the Maytag uniform...seems like a super nice knowledgeable guy...I remember in one of his videos him saying that with today's sensitive electronics in...
