    I think I'm going to finally buy a front loading washer and I have many questions

    Reply #4: PeteK, this is very helpful and exactly the sort of thing I wanted to know. So you find that you don't regret not having the Turbowash on yours? What are cycle times like? So do you think if I learned where towels was, I could use that and normal and that would suffice? What are the...

    I think I'm going to finally buy a front loading washer and I have many questions

    Mark, I believe I know the Youtube channel you're referring to. If it's the one I'm thinking of, yes that guy is always bashing on Samsung and also LG. He calls LG "looks good." If we're thinking of the same dude, yeah he really comes off as arrogant. I've had the same thoughts as you about...

    I think I'm going to finally buy a front loading washer and I have many questions

    I've done a lot of thinking over the past couple days about my washer situation (see my last thread for reference) and have also spoken to a few people. Without going into too much personal detail, we will be getting quite a bit of extra money over Christmas, so with that, coupled with my newly...

    Whirlpool WTW4816FW3: Bad control board and Lowes warranty issues

    Reply #16 Eddie, your experience was what I kept in mind when I bought this washer, because it's so similar to yours. In fact, I believe it's literally the same mechanically, just a step or two up in the line-up so a few more options on the control, but nothing whatsoever different otherwise. I...

    Whirlpool WTW4816FW3: Bad control board and Lowes warranty issues

    Also, the lady's DW was just a couple weeks out of warranty, same as me, and Whirlpool didn't want to honor it any longer. Look around online and you'll find lots of weird horror stories about Lowes protection plans. It would seem that I came out pretty good compared to others, but I would have...

    Whirlpool WTW4816FW3: Bad control board and Lowes warranty issues

    Oh I'm sure they won't fix it at this point. I was looking around last night and apparently the same thing happened to a lady with a broken dishwasher. Her control board was shot and they didn't even try to fix it, just sent her a credit for the purchase price of the machine. So this situation...

    Whirlpool WTW4816FW3: Bad control board and Lowes warranty issues

    Reply #7 Mark, oh trust me, with that$500 credit in my hot little hand I'm itching to just go ahead and plunk down the other $300 or so and get the Turbowash LG FL I've wanted for so long. The reason I didn't buy it to begin with is that my parents bought me this cheaper TL set. But I'd...

    Whirlpool WTW4816FW3: Bad control board and Lowes warranty issues

    Reply #1, I can't do that because Lowes doesn't sell those, and I didn't get the money back in cash. I received an EGift card, so it'll have to be a washer that Lowes sells. But thanks for the recommendation! :)

    Whirlpool WTW4816FW3: Bad control board and Lowes warranty issues

    Post subject basically says it all. After several weeks of my Whirlpool washer acting somewhat strangely, last weekend it exhibited enough of a weird behavior that I filed a claim through Lowes to have the machine serviced (my manufacturer warranty just ran out, so I'm stuck dealing with the...

    Is this a Bobload?

    Hey Eugene! Yes, I noticed on the day you made a thread about your machine that it's the exact portable version of mine. We even acquired them on the same day I believe. For me, it's the DW my apartment complex replaced my dying Frigidaire with as it was the only one available that would fit...

    Whirlpool WTW4816FW: auto sensing issue

    Well now things are getting interesting... I had a small-ish load to do earlier today. Not a typical full load like I usually do because specific items needed laundered. As such, I opted to run the washer on normal which I hardly ever use on full loads. I did put it on extra rinse though as the...

    Is this a Bobload?

    This is my new GE dishwasher, crammed as full as I could get it. Three days worth of plates, saucers, bowls (some of which have dried oatmeal gook on them), cups, silverware, etc, as well as the dishes I used to make chimichangas and rice. The plates were used for that dinner two nights in a row...

    Thoughts on LG wash tower.

    LG WashTower I've eyed these units off and on for several years, ever since they came out. I live in a one-bedroom apartment, and my laundry is in a hallway closet. Full-size, side-by-side machines fit well but there certainly is an appeal to winning back half the closet for extra storage...

    I really like the look of the new Whirlpool Front Loaders

    Turbowash, recirculation, etc on FL washers Mark, I'm with you, I thought any washer with recirculation basically had turbowash, guess it's not quite the same thing. Samsung FL washers have a feature called super speed. Similar concept as turbowash in that it basically cuts the cycle time in...

    Whirlpool WTW4816FW: auto sensing issue

    Clarifying, my manufacturer warranty expires in a week. I have the extended warranty through Lowes for two more years.

    Whirlpool WTW4816FW: auto sensing issue

    My washer (model number above) has started having a problem where the auto sense function doesn't seem to be working right. It no longer does the pulsed tub spins at the beginning of the fill to determine water level on any cycle. In normal operation, the washer fills to a small load level while...

    Got my replacement dishwasher yesterday, GE model #GDT225SSLS

    Jerome, accessibility is meh on this machine, to be honest. The buttons are tactile, but cycles are selected via one button (cycle select) and there's no way for a blind person to track which cycle they've landed on because the machine beeps when the button is pushed, but it's a blue indicator...

    New Dishwasher: GE GPT225SGLWW Portable

    Auto sense cycle, from what I've observed during the two or three times I've used it this far, has one prewash that lasts about 25 minutes, the main wash which is around 45 minutes, and then the rinse which lasts approx. 20 minutes. As Eugene says, the cycle clocks in right around 90 minutes...

    Got my replacement dishwasher yesterday, GE model #GDT225SSLS

    Henrick, yeah I was kinda weirded out when I saw that Eugene had basically gotten an identical unit same day as me. I had literally just finished my post when I saw Eugene's and was like holy crap that's pretty much my same machine and it was purchased on the same day, how strange! LOL wonder if...

    New Dishwasher: GE GPT225SGLWW Portable

    Eugene, I believe you and I have very similar machines, mine's just the built-in version and not white. I agree with your observations except I haven't tried the light cycle yet. Do you find the rack configuration awkward for the placement of items such as cereal bowls? That's been my biggest...
