If it breaks again, for most machines, you can always use a length of heavy fishing line. The tension in the spring motor should be great enough that when you use the tabulator the carriage zips across with enough force from right to left with no slow down throughout the movement and decidely...

I use a Shark stick vac for hard floor vacuuming. If there's smallish spills etc I'll use a Swiffer Wet Jet with the disposable pads. For washing the floors I use the Bissell Crosswave. I find it works well but it's a bit cumbersome in tight spaces or wont' reach into the, so I use the swiffer...

We had this in our first house we bought back in 1987, the house was probably about 5 years old at the time we bought it. It worked well as I recall and never had any issues. I can't even say it was all that noisy either as the den and kitchen were sort of open concept and I detest noise. FF a...

It's a Bosch dishwasher and my previous machines were Kitchenaids, no sudsing in any of them. Water is out of Lake Huron like tens of millions of other people living around the great lakes

Not sure if these are considered classic sprinklers but I've used these for years. Sears also sold them as Craftsmans. They're great because you can adjust how close and how far the spray shoots out, having it pull back when it it's passing a sidewalk or the road for example...

It's Cascade Platinum Oxi with Dawn. I've never had a sudsing issue with any Cascade, Kirkland, or Finish products.

I use Cascade pods and never have a suds problem

That probably saved you $500 in repair costs. Do you have sulphur in your water that stinks, particularly when you use warm/hot water? My sister had that problem out on the farm..so bad when she did laundry I couldn't go in her house it was that nauseating. Fixed it by having some sort of spray...

Fabulous house. I could move right in. I hope people realize that 80% of that stuff in those pictures was not the owners. The estate sale people bring it in by the truckload.

Wonder why it would drop that many points... did the previous version have "oxi" in its name?

I'm not familiar with that model at all. However there are usually two methods used to trip the ribbon mechanism into reversing. Some ribbons have an eyelet about 3 to 6 inches from each end which trips the ribbon reversing mechanism on the full spool side. The other method is where as the...

You'll probably just have to scavenge the parts from another one. The parts like the door handles, chiming t-stat and elements are probably interchangeable with the single wide stoves as well. Plenty of these moffats are still out there. We had that very one when I a kid

What a shame but I guess kids aren't interested in those things anymore... I had a Wilesco stationary upright steam engine I got as a present when I was around 9 years old. I loved it... would hook it up with belts or string to power things I made with my meccano set. Meccano was UK sort of...

Love ya Larry. The fuck you should be apologizing to anyone.

Fabulous I wish I had one iota of your drive.

"Bradford" branded appliances were sold in Canada in that time period at Zellers Dept Stores which was owned by Grants. I had a Bradford 9" b/w tv. I can't recall if the washers they sold were so named or not.

That's a looker.

She did magazine ads for natural gas air conditioning and there's a picture or two showing her purportedly in her 66 house in Malibu with all the wood cabinetry etc.

I've never heard of this company who manufactures central air and other things using licensed names of Gibson, Frigidaire, Maytag, Broan for their units. What got me looking was seeing my neighbors Gibson central air unit.They had it installed perhaps 5 years ago and so far no problems. From...
