Airlines and hotels I find airlines and hotels are devils for doing this too, not just retailers. I sometimes wonder if my sister is the smartest one of us all, she refuses to have A.T.M.cards of any kind, she still goes to the bank each time with her old fashioned passbook and withdraws cash...

Haier products Well,my Haier twin tub may now be housed in the garage, but we used it for at least 5 years and it never missed a beat, unlike the heap of junk Bosch front loader which was it's predecessor, with it's total life span of 3 years and that was with just moderate household use as...

Crisper drawer Thanks so much for the tip Chris, I certainly will be careful with the crisper drawer, were you able to get a replacement drawer given yours was still under warranty, I also did not bother with an extended warranty, I feel they are pretty unnecessary really. Glad you are enjoying...

Kelvinator in Oz Hi Retropia, yeah Kelvinator used to be a brand in it's own right here, but now it is part of the Electrolux group along with Westinghouse and Simpson. Indeed the Kelvinator and Westinghouse fridges are exactly the same only cosmetic differences separate them even with my new...

Been looking for a 2nd fridge for a little while now and today settled on the 430 litre upside down Kelvinator, a fairly basic, no frills type of unit, but looks to have everything I was looking for, deep freezer baskets, decent size, but not huge refrigerator area solidly built,and even made...

You wouldn't believe it but We ended up with neither a Dyson nor a Miele, we ended up with a Vax Fusion bagless for $199.00. The salesman at the Good guys demonstrated a Miele, a Dyson and this Vax model for usand the Vax outperformed both the Dyson and the Miele, the Dyson took the longest to...

Thanks for all the tips Thanks so much for the tips and info guys, appreciate all of it, I am kind of leaning towards the Miele as I don't really mind changing bags, in fact the Hoover Aura was a bagged cleaner, although I bought a cyclonic cup which clipped onto the side of the hose and worked...

Hi everyone, the Hoover Aura blew up on me last weekend while doing our large yearly spring clean of the house so I have been looking for a new vacuum cleaner. I am interested in the Dyson D.C.29 or the Miele S5211. Can't quite make up my mind wether to go with the bagless Dyson or the bagged...

Simpson Delta 10 Hi Leon, talk about a blast from the past! an Aunt of mine had that same Delta 10 and it lasted for about 20 years, although she always washed in cold water so I dare say her outer tub must have looked like the tub on your large 705. I guess you would be too young to remember...

Photo no 2 And another photo of it.

One does not see too many of these around a 1949 Frigidaire Cycla-Matc 2 door fridge freezer, looks to be in good shape too, pity it is not anywhere near me.

Had one for 5 years Hi Norgechef, We have owned one of these washers for the last 5 years and it hasn't missed a beat, have been very happy with it,all the Turbodrum function means is that the pulsator turns in one direction, the drum turns the opposite way and the 3 mini wings on top of the...

Recently bought some Radiant Advanced formula capsules which claims amongst other things to be effective even on set 7 day old stains. Put it to the test with a load of whites which included some of my disabled brother's underpants which had some large skid marks on them and a couple of my...

Aquasmart linting Hi Mysteryclock, I have no doubt that soem of the linting problem would be caused by some people loading and sorting incorrectly, however I also think a big problem would be an agitator/washplate washing system combined with small quantities of water resulting in constant...

Aquasmart Hi Mysteryclock, the Aquasmart gets many bad reviews here in Australia,due to a big linting problem. If you go to www.productreview.com.au and click on the reviews you will see what I mean. Sorry I dont know how to do links.

Beko Hi Chris, thank you, actually Beko are getting quite a run from Bing Lee stores at the moment washers and refrigerators as well, and yes they do look like a nice machine.

Hi Guys, We have just had our laundry rearranged a bit and were thinking of bringing the dryer out of retirement and instead of shoving it on the wall where there is some argument as to wether it will fit or not,and so I was thinking of perhaps replacing the T.L. with a F.L.and sitting the dryer...

thank goodness for the twinnie Thank goodness I still have the Haier twinnie stored away in the garage in case we end up with with machines which use 1 tablespoon of water to wash in and if they ever became mandatory to have. Actually while thinking of it, would any U.S. manufacturers of...

No problem at all Works fine here Robert, no issue at all. Regards. Steve.

It must be the end of me then Well then I guess my time must be nearly up with all the time I spent and spend doing the washing in the twin tub, I knew I really should have moved the loads around with a large broomstick handle. I wonder what the hell my walkman has done to me after all these...
