Happy Festivus to All of Us! I truly wish for two things this Holiday season. The first thing I desperately would like is to afford(financially & health-wise)to be able to travel beyond the NYC Metro area to meet & visit with fellow members in the USA or overseas! I do have a valid passport...

Post# 558487, Reply# 12 11/22/2011 at 07:46 by Supersuds Hi "Sudsy"! I am surprised to learn that there are still liquid laundry detergents like your Aussie Dynamo(Colgate-Palmolive AU?)that contain phosphates. I do also wonder what percentage of phosphate they contain, if displayed. I...

Graham's "Fruitful" Possession Graham, I sure do love your 1966(JUST like in my 1966 brochure!)avocado Duomatic! Is it electric or gas drying? I am not sure about the combos, but the regular two top-line model 1966 Philco dryers have reverse-tumble, and I sure love that feature. It is called...

Best of Luck with the "Woof" and the Washer! Hi Kevin, I, too, have never watched one of these Spacemates in operation, and hope you will get yours up to the task. It looks like both "Westy's" will give you a run for your money, and the dog is adorable!

"Loads of Laundry"! Congratulations, Kevin, with this beauty! I have a feeling you're located in Costa Mesa. I agree with the fact about the discoloration being due to the drum-direct-facing Calrod units above it. Especially, I think, is the fact that possibly the former owner used too much...

"Je me souviens..." Back upon my first visit to Montreal in the summer of 1974, I noticed that the Viking appliances from Eaton's were made by GE's Hotpoint, and so were The Bay's Beaumark brand; Inglis & Belanger by Whirlpool; and of course, Simpson's by Whirlpool. I am trying my best to...

What's a "Pony Washer"? Inquiring mind wishes to know... It looks like the window is just that-it seems too small to load clothes through. Maybe the "cabinet handle" on the front reveals the actual drum-opening? Qui sait?

Water Hardness Todd, I forgot to ask you, is your local water in No. Cal. hard or soft? My friends in Ashland, OR have naturally soft water, it was a pleasure using it there. I was misled to think that San Francisco had soft water. When I visited there in July 1980, my OLD hotel's water was...

Nice Lady Kenmore, Todd! That WD is BYOOOOOOTIFUL! One day, maybe I will get to try one of those, one of my two favorite combos-the other is the '60's Philco Duomatic. What I would suggest is that you drop an old sheet or cover over that gem to keep it as clean as you can from dust, etc...

Post# 558570, Reply# 15 11/22/2011 at 15:32 by chestermike Mike, Thanks in advance for checking the ingredients information for me! I could possibly go to the AU or NZ manufacturer's sites for the information. My Miele Ultra Color ultra-concentrate powder rinses completely from my clothes...

Post# 554681, Reply# 5 11/6/2011 at 23:39 by arbilab My Samsung's fussiness about balancing for spin DOES "direct-drive me" NUCKIN' FUTS! Sometimes(rarely, though) it doesn't even spin at all at the end of a cycle! If it's any comfort, my Electrolux I-Touch I had for only a month was even...

Post# 556916, Reply# 8 11/15/2011 at 22:00 by Pulsator Hey Jamie! I am not a big fan either of the old-fashion design Whirlpool-made dryers. First of all, they are 2" wider than most modern machines, second and most importantly, is that I believe they blow the air into the drum, but from...

WOW! Trey, I was surprised at first, that a sixteen-year-old young man could afford such a "luxury" for himself! Now that you've divulged the bargain price you paid for the Dyson, I took a breath of relief! (: Would you please tell me if your Dyson washer is made elsewhere other than the...

Colored Appliances outside the USA Hey Guys, I wonder how much extra the manufacturers charge for fashion-colored appliances. If one wants a colored machine here, most if not all manufacturers charge $100.00 extra for colored machines. If one wants Stainless Steel front panels , it costs even...

OH WOW, Tom! Thanks for the comment, I happen to know that these broilers were highly rated! I also have the patent documentation! That's not only the reason our friends in Forest Hills bought it, but it was MY family that made it! Our part of the family never had "money". G-D only knows how...

Thanks SO MUCH, Guys!!! I just want to thank Peter & Kevin for the wonderful photos, and other guys for helping me out! It means a lot to me. Peter, what "archives" are you referring to, that you delved-into? I know many of you guys have access to stuff I am not able to see for myself. Jason

The free-rinsing Drive 2X Hi Mike! Can it possibly be that the Aussie Drive 2X powder has little, if not at all, sodium carbonate in it? That is a major component of US powder detergents, because I am sure all Aussie (and am told all NZ powders) no longer contain phosphates? Several US...
