    Important life lesson

    Louis, have you ever considered “tooth powder”? That’s all my dad used years ago and I of course tried it as well. Turns out it’s still available today in a number of different brands. I’m not sure if it has the ingredients you are allergic to or not but, it was a thought.

    Recipes and Millennials...

    I 100% agree!!     I have searched for a variety of recipes online, still do occasionally.   A some time ago I would start to read it, then give up and scroll down looking for the recipe.   Now when I end up on one of those website/pages, I do NOT bother to read any of it, just scroll down...

    New Japanese Dishwasher

        Interesting that the Panasonic has 3 spray arms, plus fixed jets for the upper rack at the back!   Yeah neat little DW, I'd like to try it out!   Looks like on Amazon (Japan) they are priced between 54,000 - 67,000 Yen ($500 - $616 US) depending on model.

    Miele Washer $100 (San Francisco)

    Yeah Ralph, I just clicked the link and it says the post has expired. I would say “if it were closer” because I seem to be on a Miele buying frenzy lately, as I now have three W/D sets now. Kevin

    White-Westinghouse Spacemates Washer - Help needed urgently!

        THANK YOU John & Ben for the PN info, very much appreciated!   One thought I have about these Westinghouse FL washers, is to convert them to an electric drain pump, but I haven't gone any further than thinking about it.   Thomas, I don't know that I really need 4 tub bots, but 2 for...

    Another new (to me) Miele W&D pair, this time in stainless!

        After speaking with the seller a week ago, I picked these up yesterday.  Thomas found them on FB and forwarded me the link (THANKS Thomas!).  They are the same Touchmatic series as the other pair I recently acquired, but this time with stainless steel cabinets (W1215 & T1415).  The best...

    Do you prefer drop down or side open dryer door?

        Why settle for one or the other, why not have both???

    DD Kenmore Pair

        DD = Direct Drive   BD = Belt Drive   This refers to the type of transmission for Whirlpool/Kenmore and other WP owned brands.  While there are some exceptions, direct drive is roughly 1985/86 and newer.

    You can be almost sure....

    Need some parts for this W-Westinghouse washer!     Yes I bought this W-Westinghouse washer (only - no dryer) and dropped it off at Thomas' place... because he does NOT have enough machines jammed into his laundry room!  LOL   Model #LT280JXD1.    I assume it's a very late 70's or early...

    Parting out 1986-1987 WLP made Kenmore Model 665.1577580

        Well Joe, it's been 4 months.... I think it might be safe to say.... if you haven't had any takers yet.... the odds are you may not.   Just sayin'.....

    New (to me) Miele W1213 washer & T1415 dryer

    Update with good news!     Thomas came over last night with his not-sold-in-the-USA portable steam cleaner and thoroughly cleaned this washer inside (w/o disassembly) and out.  It looks much better to begin with and the door boot almost looks like new again too.  It <span...

    Is this worth the price?

        ^^^what he said about the price^^^

    Is this worth the price?

        That depends on if this dryer (in a non-factory, incorrect color) really moves you or not.  If you really want it and you're OK with spending $250 for it, than  go for it.  But when you go to look at it, make sure you plug it in and test it first, don't just take the sellers word for it.

    Newer Kitchenaid dishwasher see-through in action, opinions requested

        Wow, I guess KA's quality has gone down hill (like with everything these days?).  I only replaced my 19 year old KA DW on 12/30/18 is because the heating element stopped working a couple years ago.   Never had any other problems with it.   I replaced it with a new Bosch that I've been...

    New (to me) Miele W1213 washer & T1415 dryer

        The door boot on my other (older) Miele is in really nice condition.  The door boot on this one doesn't look as nice (darker/discolored) and the lower portion was actually <span style="text-decoration: underline;">stuck</span> to the door glass when I first opened the door.  So much so I...

    New (to me) Miele W1213 washer & T1415 dryer

        Laundress & Greg, you are both awesome, THANK YOU!   I just printed the Tech manual and will go through it once I get home.   In selecting the "Normal" cycle, the hottest temp option allowed is "hot".  My water heater is set to 140 degrees, so I will assume water entering the washer is...

    New (to me) Miele W1213 washer & T1415 dryer

    OK, I just finished running a full cycle (NORMAL - hot) and 1 Affresh puck (tablet). Interesting that when I started the cycle it showed 58 minutes remaining, but about five minutes into the wash, the cycle suddenly lost 10 mins. Then 10 mins into the wash, a few more minutes vaporized...

    New (to me) Miele W1213 washer & T1415 dryer

    Thomas, while I’m sure the pump will physically fit in place, the pump and other compunents inside the W1926 are 120V, but everything inside the newer W1213 are all 240V. So unfortunately....... no I can’t swap parts from one machine to the other.
