    Persil and residue

    Is Henkel's "Viva" detergent still available in Mexico? That was a fantastic detergent. I'm pretty sure they still make 1-2-3, but it doesn't have the same cleaning power for clothes.

    KM/WP DW losing water during wash after sensing

    I dumped in the extra water at about 1:03. It started sucking air a few minutes ago and just did a sense pause. Now it is definitely sucking air. I hope the heating element has cut off... About 15 minutes for it to start...

    KM/WP DW losing water during wash after sensing

    Sure enough. I just went over to check it during main wash, almost empty of water and the heating element was glowing bright orange. Dumped about 1/2 gallon into it, restarted, sounds OK for now...

    A Welcome For The ELUX

    Is there a variance in tumbling speed between whites, heavy duty, normal and causal? Or does it vary within the cycle, like slow to fill or drain, but aggressive when main washing or rinsing?

    Henkel + Sun Products =?

    Lever Bros became Diversey-Lever for a short time before selling to Sun (then Lever became Unilever). You are probably seeing either old stock for sale, or old content on the webpage. . Had Unilever kept the detergent division and brought the UK Persil formula over, they might still have...

    Henkel + Sun Products =?

    the end of Wisk They are promoting Persil on the Wisk Facebook page. I called Sun (or what is left of them) and the very nice lady in India would not confirm or deny if Wisk is being discontinued.

    Hoover 620 full cycle

    Interesting: the agitator indexes ever so slightly counterclockwise, while the tub indexes ever so slightly clockwise.

    Miele B890 parts needed

    The entire control center is destroyed. Or at least the cover was broken off leaving the electronics exposed. Since I get out of work early today, I may be able to get pics before the sun goes down,

    Over 5 Years Later, I'm Ready to Run the Unused 1962 General Electric Filter-Flo

    She's a beauty! Water guzzler, but still a beauty! Isn't it amazing that they really didn't change their design for sooooooo many years?

    Miele B890 parts needed

    Thanks Laundress & Mike... That B990 is nice. Is the only real difference from the B890 is the variable temp? I know I need a feed board. I'm afraid the pic of the damage may bring some to tears when they see it...

    Homart window fan questions

    Another find: I picked up a Homart window fan with the square logo badge on the grill. Two speed, one direction (exhaust). . Because of the deco style badge, is this an older/original model? . On the back is only one movable panel to get it to fit into the window. Should there be two, one on...

    Miele B890 parts needed

    What was posted as a "Miele rotary iron in need of repair - $50" on craigslist turned into "just come pick it up, free". So I have a B890 that the control panel side was smashed during shipment. (Pics to come soon) . My question to our UK guys is: how readily are parts available overseas...

    WTH?!?! Anyone see this before on an orbital MT?

    Yes, at the laundromat. I have 6 orbitals that replaced 6 GE FFs. These were among the last Newton machines. Since I've had them, this is the first major issue I've had with them ever.

    WTH?!?! Anyone see this before on an orbital MT?

    Was doing some soaking in my orbital Maytags last night when I noticed one wasn't making the telltail splish-splash noise. It wasn't agitating at all and the agitator seemed awfully tall. So I put the half clothespin into the lid switch, pushed down on the agitator, it engages for 4-5 strokes...
