    I went all electric - Hyundai Ioniq 6

    @mattl The Ioniq 6 comes with a heat pump as standard. So winter range will be affected - just not as much as with a resistive heater. @gizmo The Ioniq 5 looks significantly better IMO and has a much more usable trunk space. I could fit a washer or dryer in my Polo, but couldn't in the much...

    Jenn-Air oven s/m. How to obtain?

    Just searching for the model number provides the use and care manual. The "Setup" section mentions a setting for temp offsets, so all you really need is an oven thermometer. Interestingly enough, that also mentions a setting for 240V vs 208V for "improved results when using bake". Makes me...

    I went all electric - Hyundai Ioniq 6

    I'll start out with saying some stuff straight out: - This car is WAY to expensive, and so is basically any electric car currently on the market to actually recommend. - This car is way to big for what I actually need, but if you want certain criteria to be met with EVs, you just gotta go big. -...

    Bosch weighs offer for appliance maker Whirlpool

    ELux stopped their counter top DWs a few years back here in Germany. Bosch/Siemens still is the gold standard there - they are basically the same design (pump, filter, spray arm etc.) as the normal size ones. They even make them into a design that basically fits in a typical built-in space for...

    Making the switch

    There are definitely dryers in compact format that can dry any size item perfectly well. Usually, it's dryers with very good reversing algorithms or just plain 1 to 1 reversing. Some stuff like 3 instead of 2 lifters, inverter motors for extra stable drum speeds etc. help as well. But...

    Tupperware files for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy

    They've tried restructuring and apparently failed. Funny enough, I can still enter their online store and could start an order through my employers shopping discount portal, even with that discount. It's also really interesting some of their most popular products just have vanished. And they...

    Bosch weighs offer for appliance maker Whirlpool

    I actually think it's a bit the other way around. The new US DW line came first and the EU just got them slightly adapted as "Maxi Space" models (or whatever they're called). It's a lot weirder that Whirlpool and Arcelik actually kind of fused their operations in this continent. When I access...

    Miele T7744C overheating and tripping...

    These dryers run pretty hot regardless - talking 80C range at the beginning of the cycle. They temper down a lot towards the end of the cycle. Mieles temp programming is quite complicated. If it was overheating it would - usually - throw an error code. A thing many don't realise is that...

    Canning bolognese in an oven

    Most online sources regarding the canning method mention about 6 months of shelf life, without refrigeration. Doing the hot fill and flip method works wonders with stuff like jam or jelly of course, but also just plain tomato sauce or simple soups like pumpkin. Especially with stuff you reheat...

    Canning bolognese in an oven

    With 2h at boiling, I don't see much room for error, especially if it's something you'll be reheating before eating. The biggest threat in canning is botulism, and botulinum toxins are deactivated at 85C / 180F after only one minute. So, even if anything survived 2h at boiling, reheating - which...

    Canning bolognese in an oven

    I tend to make bolognese in bulk, and so I did for my partner. It's really nice to just heat it up, boil some pasta and have a really nice quick meal. I usually freeze it, but my partners freezer really was to full to do that, but we already bought the stuff to make the bolognese. So I read...

    Making the switch

    Not saying your concerns aren't valid, but these are typical compact dryer and typical heat pump dryer complaints. The tangling is a very typical compact dryer issue, especially ones that don't reverse much. I think a full size heat pump dryer (especially the ones from the likes of Samsung or...

    Miele WT2780 Combo in Japan

    The WT2780 (and it's almost dozen or so iterations) were sold almost globally. Was always surprised to find these weren't ever converted to inverter motors. Very quiet none the less. As far as I understand, Japanese washing machines are either larger or smaller that the typical EU size. The...

    IFA 2024

    The drums on the AIDD 13/14kg models should be about 80 odd litres. The "normal depth" machines have drums just shy of 70l rated up to 11kg. Given some manufacturers go as low as 1:5 filling ratios, I don't even think they'd have done much to get that extra load size.

    IFA 2024

    It didn't Until today. Cause I checked Samsung's website yesterday (their press release regarding IT security in IOT devices showed this exakt machine) and it wasn't there. First of: For the EU, the machine is HUGE. The website states a width below 70cm, the official documents say 75cm...

    IFA 2024

    AEG dryers They just showed up on the german website. MSRP is 1800€, so given the typical price cuts and AEGs sales network size, I would guess these could retail just shy of 1000€. And, well, as expected. Certainly an inverter compressor. Surprisingly fast: 8kg in under 200min with just...

    These pictures are correct - you can barely see one of these bumps in the official press release.

    IFA 2024

    Totally skipped over the A+++ -25% AEG dryer. Given how well the 9000 series dryers have just been rated by our consumer magazine, that's gonna be one hell of a dryer to beat.
