That's exactly what I mean. When flow restrictions are applied with common sense, we end up with fixtures that people love, like the toilets mentioned above, that save water AND do the job. With the showerheads, it's a different story now. It's even more restrictive than the shower head I...

A few days ago, my "fire hose" shower head broke. I ran to Lowe's and purchased an Oxygenics whatever model that was on sale. As it's California, it's not a surprise that the governor führer Fidel Castro Newsom wants to control even the way people shower, with ridiculous restrictions way harder...

@chetlaham Any changes involves time and time is money. There's my time designing (counted in minutes), then testing, validating. As it's a change, it's considered a different model, so it has to be tested again by UL and DOE. (That costs a fortune). Then there's the adjustments that have to...

@henene There's a joke we used to say in college. Americans made the best intentions because of laziness. Remote control, power windows, automatic transmission, etc. Even dosing the detergent is a "dreadful chore", that's why pods became so popular here. People wouldn't really care too much...

Mixguy I have two Frigidaires side by side One purrs like a cat (well, like a wild cat snoring) The other is 50 times louder. Really louder... Absurdly louder!

O.....K.... Well... it's here... It's connected... I ran a test cycle (no load)... Washing, it sounds like a derailed train. Spinning it sounds like a derailed train + a tornado siren. Fill valve is also strange, it fills VERY slowly (maybe just the filter is clogged, I still have to...

@chetlaham Actually we have a prototype ready. That was put in the freezer because of several business factors. Basically it wasn't the time for that because suddenly the market changed from water to wine with the pandemic. I completed the project (Revvinkevin even tried the prototype), and...

Got it. That adds cost to the timer, in a market that we fight for CENTS.

Yes, that's what smart people would do. What we see every day in real life is a completely different story. It's like "OMG, that dealer is selling a Ford Pinto 1 cent cheaper than a brand new Bentley, so of course the pinto is the best option because it's cheaper and I'll save a lot of money...

@panasonicvac Yes, if you have a technician service the Neptune that will be quite pricey and theoretically it could make sense to replace the washer, HOWEVER, you'd replace an awesome washer with many years of service left by a washer that would, if lucky, last 5 years. Of course, either...

What about replacing the bearings?

It adds A LOT MORE. 1) the suspension cost itself. 2) the shipping cost (volume) 3) the shipping cost (weight) The Niagara IS a full size washer, but average 3x smaller than a whirlpool direct drive washer. (Volume) There's also the weight factor. The Niagara concept is a washer that can be...

Timed fill NO WAY AT ALL! Even worse in a washer that relies on load absortion to select the water level, like any front load washer. It tops off the water level many times during the cycle because the load absorbs water. Even worse being portable and with a huge variation on waterflow (gpm)...

You're absolutely right. It adds weight to shipping (increase cost)and also makes the production cost skyrocket. The first challenge is keeping it affordable for low.income customers, also, we have the competition. Here at AWO we all know value, but the average consumer cares only about the...

Oracle touch was postponed because it costs an absurd so I am thinking about going with a drip coffee maker. I have a KA personal coffee maker that is perfect, the problem is that it's too small for my morning needs and I don't want to brew 3 times I a row, too much hassle. I also have a Ninja...

Btw, we NEVER touch the reviews, different from a certain company that was deleting negative reviews and even banning authorized dealers.

Guys, a couple of nights ago another Frigidaire 1-18 popped up on Facebook. I immediately contacted the seller (it was listed as free) and she came up with the "zillions of people already contacted me. Ok, I offered $50 and guess what.

Hi Eddie The Niagara is a monster success. near its 2nd anniversary. The pandemic may have helped us, people bought washers like crazy (still buying) so it's hard to say exactly if it was because of "it being it" or because "it was available". I'm often surprised by consumers emailing us and...
