    Such A Wascomat Like You've Never Seen Before

    Unimac That's no Wascomat... Unimac had the button lock on the door with the 4 bolts in the hinge... Maytag coin & OPL machines were sourced and rebranded from them, which would explain the Maytag "control panel"...

    Life and appliance collecting in the Atlanta, GA region

    Go NW Marietta, Smyrna, Kennesaw, Acworth, Woodstock are all great little towns. Traffic is much less onerous on the NY I-75 corridor than I-85. Everything you need will be local, so you really won't get caught up too badly in rush hour. And when you want to go to "the city" it can be a real...

    Kenmore to Whirlpool conversion

    Buy new? Mon dieu! No, I want to get a used WP off craigslist for about $20-$50 and swap the inner door out... The ones I find, the dispenser is slightly different or the vent is different... I'm biding my time until I find what I think is an exact match at the low, low price point...

    Kenmore to Whirlpool conversion

    A friend has a Kenmore dw. I'd like to convert it with a WP inner door, flatware basket-on-the-door, and bottom rack with the extra tines. Are these parts easily interchangeable, or do they need to be "like for like" from the same production models? My big concern is for the vent to match up...

    Maytag dishwashers: Inside

    How does the WP/KM dishwasher change which holes the water shoots out of on the bottom spray arm? Is there another valve in there? . The Miele doesn't alternate wash arms? Looks a lot more powerful than the others. Even with alternating, I bet it's more powerful.

    The Pre-Rinser's Hypocrisy...

    Most dishwasher now have sensors in them. If you put pre-rinsed dishes in, the machine may shut down quicker than it should. OTOH, the dirtier the dishes, the longer the dw will run, and will use more water. This is especially true of WP and KA dws. Friends of mine with newer WP and KA's are...
