    Cold water washing has arrived

    The Professional pods are $36.50 for 63 loads.or 57c a load compared to the Professional powder about $50 US for 155 loads or 32c a load. That's quite a difference in price. The Professional powder is $53 US at staples in the US and only $49 Cdn. at Staples in Canada which is about $35 USD.

    Frozen Foods

    Just to be clear that plain frozen vegetables like peas, corn, broccoli, etc do not contain any chemical preservatives. They're frozen right away after picking and the next best thing to fresh. Frozen meals and some coated frozen vegetables and canned are a whole nother story.

    Why does Consumer Reports love Bosch so much?

    That's just conjecture that people aren't honest in their CR survey responses. Since only paid subscribers can fill out the survey it would seem to me and like me, that they are all the more honest about their highly rated appliance having problems and want them to know. That's the purpose of...

    Why does Consumer Reports love Bosch so much?

    As to why are they always the top rated machines is simple. They purchase them anonymously and they test them scientifically which means the results are consistent and most importantly they are repeatable. Repeatablity means that if any other manufacturer questions them or threatens to sue them...

    Why does Consumer Reports love Bosch so much?

    I've had my Bosch Ascenta about 5 ish years, loved it, but was a bit let down last year when the sump hose developed a pin hole leak under pressure unbeknownst to me. The water eventually soaked its way thru the floor and was dripping in my basement. I bought an new hose and replaced it. That...

    You pay for what you get...

    Setting things straight. It didn't break after 5 loads. It worked fine up until he started taking it apart and that wire became dislodged that he didn't notice. Not the machines fault. The video title is disingenuous click bait.

    History of Haier and their purchase of GE appliances

    Yes GE & RCA both sold off their TV divisions to a company called Thomson Consumer Electronics . The tv's were pretty bad. Just googling them they've now they have become division of Curtis Electronics. Curtis was a real el cheapo maker of radios, tv's etc back in the 60s onwards. The stuff...

    History of Haier and their purchase of GE appliances

    They never mentioned their small appliances. Back in the late 80s or early 90s GE got rid of it's small appliance division to Black & Decker under some sort of agreement. Then in the 2000's GE branded small appliances started to reappear. Not quite sure what that was all about.

    History of Haier and their purchase of GE appliances

    I found this a very informative video and worth the time watching and why GE sold to Haier. As well I never realized Haier was as big as it was.

    who else has a new ge range

    Sounds like it might have been dropped to me for the drawer and that element both to be outta whack. My oven door has that same venting up behind the handle and it never gets hot at all. So something wasn't right about yours imho. Nor does the glass top even if the oven is on for a couple of...

    Look at what's in the kitchen

    We hate tree's You know what's weird. They cut down every tree on the property pretty much within the chain link fence and they installed fake wood paneling near everywhere in the house LOL

    who else has a new ge range

    I have the profile induction stove that's near going on 5 y.o. The control panel looks the same but I have touchpads rather than knobs for the elements. Had no problems. The glass top doesn't get hot when I'm using the oven. It's a convection oven. Perhaps because your element is off center...

    Tyler and Todd’s new kitchen appliances

    I think you're right. The white looks so much nicer than the previous black. I've never heard of these guys before but moments in when the one said "garburator" I figured they were Canadians LOL. The only thing I would have changed is to put that dishwasher next to the big sink, if it was at...

    over sudsing/excess foam

    Never have a problem with anything I've used. Our water is from Lake Huron so I'd imagine it's the same water that tens of millions of people surrounding the great lakes are using.

    Mini-split / Outdoor unit fan direction

    My current one is a "carrier" Midea...blows out horizontal and it's very quiet. Quieter than conventional units all the neighbors have. It'll be fine there.. The previous Mitsubishi's were silent outside. no fan noise no compressor noise which I found amazing . You could sit in your patio with...

    Emerson A/C

    How were you expected to fill in the gap above these units properly? Remove the whole swing out part of the window and have another piece of glass fitted?
