    Hot Dog Toaster

    Hotdogs in Denmark I prefer my buns toasted as well. Stands up to toppings better. If you ever visit Copenhagen (I assume other places in Denmark have these) try a "Fransk Hot Dog" from a cart. That means French hot dog, why, I have no idea. The bun is not split. They jab the bun on a hot...

    Frozen Dinners - FEH!

    I always have a few on hand. It's not a matter of cooking literacy, it's time. I cook often and usually make large quantities so there are sufficient left-overs for future meals, but sometimes I just don't have the time during the week for hours of food prep in the kitchen. I keep frozen...

    New Dishwasher Recommendation Please

    My DW was delivered MDBH949PAB delivered yesterday. Will install this weekend then post some thoughts and pics. A couple initial comments: - The date of mgfr is stamped on the back, 9/6/12 around 3pm. So it was made exactly one week before it arrived at my house (9/13/12). - The design of the...

    GE has a new line of dishwashers

    Noise? I was wondering, besides the other perceived largely vanity reasons for having a steel door-only; would having a steel door be a cost effective method of reducing sound transmission vs. a all-plastic tub/door setup? Just curious.

    Manual can openers

    Swing-a-way I have one, about 10 years old, and its starting to annoy me because it skips cutting halfway through the opening process.

    New Dishwasher Recommendation Please

    Volsboy. No granite counters. Interesting comment about you putting Maytags in rental properties. One of the reasons I chose Maytag is that they still have hard food disposers. I may decide to rent my house in the near future. It seems a lot less potential for trouble to just have the disposers...

    New Dishwasher Recommendation Please

    I ordered I finally took the plunge and ordered MDBH949PAB. The price dipped down by $50. I was also watching MDB4709PAB, which had been the same price. The only discernable difference I can see is a "cup shelf" which I can't justify paying $45.90 more for now that the 949 price went down...

    Your Dishwasher Detergent Preference

    Reeva gel Yes I've used that, and it's pretty bad. Their hand-wash detergent is ok but nothing special.

    Your Dishwasher Detergent Preference

    Sun I use cheap Sun powder. It works just fine in my Ultrawash. I tried some detergents that cost far more, but many left my dishes filmy.

    Review: Detergent aisles of American supermarkets

    I second Supersuds I have found a better selection of powders at low-end stores such as Family Dollar, Dollar General, and Big Lots. Frankly, when I'm looking for powder, I shop where poor people shop (which is where I do most of my shopping anyway....). There can also be interesting...

    New Dishwasher Recommendation Please

    To Dishmobile I'm leaning towards the one like yours, but with the plastic tub. Its $404 at Home Depot. I'm holding out until 1) present machine totally quits or 2) I get a new job. Until then I keep watching the prices rise and fall, and the product numbers change. I'm sure its got flaws, but...

    Is Stainless Still King of the Kitchen?

    I have a mix of black with stainless accents black: Amana fridge, GE range, Kenmore DW, Braun coffeemaker, microwave stainless: range hood, tea kettle, magnetic knife holder and other hardware & decor elements. The cabinets are white, and I'd actually consider a white dishwasher if there was...

    Trying a new to me detergent.

    I've used I thought the scent was foul right when you open the package, but it doesn't leave much scent on the clothes in the end. Not bad.

    Whirlpool Ultrawash counterpart

    If Kenmores were called Ultrawash... Were similar/identical Whirlpool models called the same thing if they had the same wash system? Or was there a different name used? Thanks

    New Dishwasher Recommendation Please

    what are your preferences? List them, and your budget. I want to see lots of replies. I'm in a similar boat. Not desperate, but getting my ducks in a row so to speak. I am currently considering the Maytag line, primarily because I want a disposer and not a filter, but I might waver on that...

    Best Move I Ever Made I cancelled satellite about a year ago and couldn't be happier. I live in an urban area in the Washington DC area. I have a rooftop ominidirectional antenna (Winegard Metrostar something) that doesn't require a rotater. See the antennaweb link previously posted for...

    Speaking Of Meats, Have Chickens Joined A Union?

    no change I have not noticed any change here. Wash DC metro area. I always buy on sale, and I don't eat meat with every meal so maybe I don't notice. Same with gas since I only fill up about 1 or 2 times a month.
