    Why I still really hate Apple Products...

    I have a 4S phone issued to me by work (medical) which I never use. When I tried to return it, they didn't even want it back. I use my own Samsung Galaxy phone for work purposes.

    Mailboxes and newspaper boxes

    The USPS has been reducing the number of blue collection boxes. I'm in a suburban area and the nearest box is 1/2 mile away. There used to be one outside my office building, but that one is now gone. So I appreciate the outgoing mail slot in my cluster mail box. Don't use it much, but good to...

    Mailboxes and newspaper boxes

    I have a multiple-user steel pedestal mailbox shared by five neighbors and me. Each of us has a locked compartment about 12 x 14 x 6 inches. In addition, there are two parcel lockers (holds maybe four shoe boxes in volume) into which the mail carrier can place a parcel; the key is placed in the...

    if you had to chose a dishwasher today what would you go with modern or vintage

    @rolls rapide the late 1940s/1950s electric sink combination units (sink, DW, and sometimes also a disposal) often included a drain board, as did the older sink units they replaced. My grandmother had an early 1950s KA combination. She did plates and glasses in the KA, but hand washed her...

    32" Wide SxS Counter Depth Fridge -- Does It Exist?

    my hunch is "no", in that most if not all counter depths are wider (use up the "standard" 38" opening) to partly compensate for less depth. Some tend to be a few inches taller as well.

    Flat Rate Electric Water Heating

    I have a time of use plan with a "smart meter" installed. My Elux FL has a delay wash setting and I use it to start loads at 4 a.m., which are then completed by the time I"m up at 6 pm and ready for the dryer. That's the weekday plan. Economy rates generally apply all weekend, so on weekends...

    Toast R Ovens

    the Breville Smart Oven has a substantial 20 x 16 inch (50 x 40 cm) footprint. For me it's a great reliever oven to my 30 inch/75 cm gas range oven. Heats up in a few minutes, and less wasteful than the range oven for smaller jobs. It's large enough to hold standard sized cookware, such as a 13...

    Seems no one in Sunny SoCal rents out their Eichler.

    I have relatives in unincorporated Stanford, California whose home and entire neighborhood is either Eichler or Eichler-inspired (some builders acquired plans from Eichler and built similar homes after Eichler himself stopped building homes). I live in OC but have never seen the Eichler homes in...

    Who uses rinse aid?

    ps to cornutt Bosch does not have heated drying, so there is no button to control dry options: it's always condensation drying. When the "clean" (= cycle finished) light goes on, I open the door and pull out the upper rack 3-4 inches, then push the door forward until its forward motion is...

    Who uses rinse aid?

    Same as the other Bosch owners. Bosch DWs do not have heated drying. For condensation drying to work, rinse agent is needed. We have hard water. A setting of "2" seems to work fine, no spots ever. There is a sticker decal on the inside door rim that says "Bosch recommends Electrasol tablets...
