    Bosch rack deterioration

    I had this same issue with a Miele dishwasher that I had...after 10 years the racks were showing wear and to replace them was not cheap. The areas that were rusting was under the lower rack plus the insert on the right and tines were then breaking. The upper rack did the same thing as well. I...

    Tide Ultra Oxi Powder for the win

    If one has a Dollah General they usually carry the Tide Oxi powder. I can also find it at Walmart and Target as well. It does quite well and is on par with Tide w.Bleach powder. I like the Tide Oxi box size that I bought at Walmart since its not the uber sized like Tide w/Bleach that I can find...

    1979 Frigidaire GM Washer

    I had a GM Frigidaire washer a few years ago that had a nicked up agitator and what I did was take sandpaper and smooth out the areas that got nicked up so there was no fabric damage when the washer was in use. You should feel around the cones and make sure there are no sharp edges and if you do...

    I did something I said I’d never do again — I bought a new VMW

    I had the 4516 F2 Whirlpool washer and it was noisy. But if this F3 version is better and it sounds like it has been improved some. I know the one I had the transmission gear grinding was a tad much in my opinion. I always used the SuperWash cycle and used Deep Fill. I found that in the Normal...

    A quick view into LGs US production

    That factory is where my LG 4000 washer was made. Kinda neat to see how it was made.

    Maytag A512 02 Spins but Won't Agitate

    The agitator is held onto the shaft by either a set screw in the agitator base or a rubber stop ring. If it is a stop ring just take a thin screw driver and pry it from the original transmission and put it onto the new one, same place . It will slide down the shaft and snap into the area you...

    Persil Powder gets a rave review

    I use the versions of Persil that is mentioned in the article. Both powder versions are excellent and low sudsing and they rinse clean. The scent is not overpowering and the laundry smells clean. The scent does not linger like some detergents so for me that’s a plus.

    which of these 3 DWs would be the best to use

    I too agree that the Maytag reverse rack machines do an awesome job and hold plenty if one knows how to load it correctly. That middle nozzle always got water into pots that were loaded in the upper rack and scrubbed everything spotless. The WC302 I had did not heat the water and required the...

    New Speed Queen 7009 Front-Load Washer & Companion Dryer

    From what I have seen is that the SQ frontloader fills from the back behind the drum. My LG does the same thing.

    Death of ScantPear2004's mechanical Whirlpool Catalyst DD washer

    I have seen a couple of his videos and yes he burps alot and farts as well. Not a fan as well. More than likely this guy did the issue to himself with the washer. I have no pity for people that self inflict issues onto themselves.

    New LG washer coming Thursday

    AI changes the parameters of the cycle based on what the load is. I use Bright Whites for towels and it will change the wash times based on soil level selected and how much water is being absorbed by the load. It also senses load size and determines what is he best approach to spin speeds. I...

    New LG washer coming Thursday

    On the 4000 that I have AI is only on Bright Whites and Normal. No other cycles use it. My washer connects to the internet and sometimes LG will send out an update for the machine. I have almost every LG alppliance that I have is connected to the internet thru the ThinQ app. That app is very...

    New LG washer coming Thursday

    If you used the Normal cycle , then yes it does not do a final tumble to loosen the load from the walls of the drum. Bright Whites does do a final tumble. You will find that on Normal, Bright Whites and Heavy Duty that Turbowash cannot be deselected. Delicates one cannot use Turbowash as well. I...

    New LG washer coming Thursday

    I find that using the extra high setting for spin is kinda overkill since high speed , for me, is plenty fast at 1100 rpms. I find that using the extra high spin speed only adds more time and the clothes look a tad weary when I take them out. Not to mention the wrinkling that even the dryer has...

    New LG washer coming Thursday

    How is it that the Normal cycle on my model is no where near the 1:20 time frame said here? Most loads on Normal with my machine clock in at 40 mins using TurboWash and that is with an extra rinse selected. You have to remember that the larger the load the more time the washer will use to get...

    New LG washer coming Thursday

    That is the same model that I have and I have the matching dryer. This set was rated #1 according to Consumer Reports as a team. The washer is made here in the USA in Clarksville TN in the new LG plant that was built. The dryer is still Korean made but its still very well made as the washer...

    Need Help Picking a New FL Set

    One has to remember that with the LG washer the wash drum is tilted so the back of the washer has plenty of water for the clothes. I have noticed that with the Normal cycle the wash water levels are less than the rinse levels and it also bases the water levels based on load size sensed if that...

    Need Help Picking a New FL Set

    Well LG and Samsung machines are designed in Korea and my LG washer was built here in the USA in TN. Many of the components are made here as well. Whirlpool/Maytag also have components made in China but if you look at the relabilty that LG has ...Whirlpool cant even come close. Now Speed Queens...

    Need Help Picking a New FL Set

    Before you go ahead and think about fiddling with the water levels in the new washer…see if it meets your needs first. I have an LG WM4000 that uses plenty of water and the TurboWash feature works quite well. You will find that the water levels in the wash cycle will be lower but that is to...
