Great News Ryne!  Lots of times with these newer machines that have electronic control boards all you need to do is unplug and then plug the machine back in and these minor problems are solved.  Here’s hoping that you’ll have no further difficulties.   Eddie

I bake all of our bread and rolls from scratch.  It’s very rewarding to enjoy the fruits of my labor.   Did you make the dough and then freeze it before thawing the rolls and baking them, or did you buy ready made frozen dough?   If you haven’t tried making your own yeast dough from scratch...

You’re sick of this vintage DW ruining your dishes and glassware.     So, WHY would anyone else want this devil machine??  Not much of an inducement for anyone to want to take this space waster off of your hands.   BTW, I happened to notice how all of my kitchen and tableware began to look...

Ryne, It doesn’t sound right that you should have to pay $95 just to have the tech come out  to look at a machine still under warranty.  I have a Whirlpool DW that was still under warranty when the pump went out.  I CALLED Whirlpool, spoke with an agent that made the authorization for me to...

I would agree with Lawrence that this GE fridge is probably a ‘52 model.     My Aunt Louise had a GE fridge just like this one and I’m pretty sure that she got it around ‘52.  She was the only family member that had a freezer that would actually keep ice cream hard.       Back then in the 50’s...

Ryne, I agree with Glenn, go directly to Whirlpool to make an appt.for a service tech to assess the problem and make the necessary repair.  I’m sorry that you’re having this problem.  But I’ll bet that the tech will be able to make the repair without any difficulty.  Better that it showed up...

 Glenn, I don’t think you missed anything by not being able to access the archive site.  The NYT obit in the OP seemed to be the full obit to me.  I just accessed the archive site and didn’t have to do any of the I’m not a robot hoops and the obit was the same as the OP obit.   Eddie

Congratulations Robert on such a remarkable score!  There’s no more deserving person than you to have found this Unimatic!   Eddie [this post was last edited: 8/12/2024-11:59]

I used to own a Westinghouse Steam Iron from the 50’s that had an open handle that I bought for $3.00 at the Salvation Army Thrift Store. It was one of the very best irons that I’ve ever used. Yes, it got hot as hell, but it was excellent for ironing starched shirts. Before I retired I used to...

Re:#7 Tom, Thanks for sharing that story about Doris Day. She was always one of my favorites. I read in her autobiography several years ago that her mother lived with her much of the time in California and helped with raising her son Terry. I recall seeing a photo of her kitchen taken...

Re:#106 I have a BOL Roper RTW4516FW that I’ve owned for 5 trouble free years. It’s essentially the sister ship of the Amana that your neighbors have. In five years of use with ALL kinds of loads it has NEVER once gone out of balance. I’ve washed heavy king size bedspreads and blankets...

Re:#24 “As much as I love to cook and bake occasionally from scratch not everyone has the time or is willing to live the life of a trad wife.” I haven’t always had the time to be a “trad wife”. But I come from a generation when the family always ate dinner together and had a home cooked meal...

There Are 365 Days in a Year And I cook dinner from scratch 360 days a year. Yes, I’ll occasionally have frozen Chicken Nuggets for our dinner, but everything else that’s served with them is homemade, like oven fries and we always will have either a salad or raw carrot, celery and green pepper...

Ryne, I buy the Tyson Frozen Chicken Tenders (not breaded) and I cook them in the oven from the frozen state. I will either sprinkle a little Knorr Chicken Bouillon powder, onion powder, pepper, crushed rosemary and paprika on them and then drizzle about 2 tbs of melted butter on them and bake...

Nay! Beyond frozen Chicken Nuggets, Frozen Chicken Breast Tenders and frozen vegetables, all of which I prepare meals from we don’t eat prepared frozen dinners or meals. As far as canned foods we will occasionally have Tomato or Mushroom soup and we also like Hormel canned Chili for a...

I'm not having any problems with this Ralph. I’m using Safari on my iPad. Maybe try clearing your history and try logging back on to AW.org? Eddie

If this toilet is seldom or never used then the urine smelling liquid can’t be coming from a toilet that has been leaking from the toilet bowl. This urine smelling wetness must be seeping UP from the sewer pipe that the toilet is mounted on with the flange and the wax ring. And even that...

Mark, Now that’s depressing, as well as anger provoking after spending $700 for the recent plumbers work to correct this and other issues. I’ll bet you’ll be calling that plumber as soon as their business opens this morning. I wish you good luck in getting this leaking toilet repaired...

Todd, It looks like an early to mid 80’s Maytag to me. I believe that Maytag went to white control panels in the early 90’s. I bought a Fabricmatic Maytag in ‘81 that was very similar to this machine. With your experience I’m sure you’ll have it running like new in no time. Eddie

Re:#11 I’m with you thatwasherguy! I have a 2007 Honda Civic 4dr that I bought new in March ‘07 and it also has none of that new fangled nonsense. Only 65,000 miles gets great MPG with the 4 spd auto trans and I also plan to never buy another car. I’ve owned 23 different cars from ‘69...
