    Recipe for old fasioned cold oven pound cake from my 98 yr old best friend,Connie

    Just a baking hint Someone may have already said this, but when baking cakes it is always best to let your butter and eggs (and any other refrigerated items, i.e sour cream, buttermilk) to get to room temperature before starting to mix your cake. The ingredients mix together much better. If you...

    Which has better parts, Whirlpool or Maytag?

    Since Whirlpool bought Maytag, they have converted all of Maytags products to the Whirlpool platform. I know Whirlpool has always made a good product, but my question is do Maytags really have better commercial grade parts than a Whirlpool machine? I tried to get an answer out of...

    I Finally did it!!!

    I had a Whirlpool Duet I bought in 2004 and it sat on a concrete floor and I had no problems with excessive vibration. You should be fine there. I gave the Duet to a friend last year and he has had no problems with it, so its going on six years old with no issues. I gave it away because it would...

    Older Kenmore dryer - Atlanta

    Dryer That dryer is probably late 60s. It looks like the mate to my Grandmothers Kenmore she bought in 1969

    I've been thinking about it for YEARS....

    Whirlpool changed the Maytag logo this year on all their machines-- so you have the real deal.

    HEAVEY DUTY SUPER CAPICITY CLOTHES WASHER (sp?)

    You are correct-- that looks like an early 80s whirlpool washer

    Temperature control

    No Auto Temp Control Speed Queen still offers a Top-loader that does not "Dummy" down the hot water-- whatever comes out of the water heater is what you get on the hot setting.

    Interesting Maytag posting in Portland, OR.

    A bit off the subject Maytaga407-- That washer looks just like one I bought in 1996 and made the mistake of buying a Front Loader in 2004 and gave that washer to a neighbor. I think I paid about $570 for mine-- I moved last year to a place that the Front Loader would not fit, so I ended up...

    HEAVEY DUTY SUPER CAPICITY CLOTHES WASHER (sp?)

    Idiots It amazes me how many stupid people there are in the world. Evidently he can't read "Whirlpool" on the control panel.

    Maytag 806/808

    Very Nice I wish I could find a set like that- I would get rid of my current Whirltags I bought last year. Whoever owned those machines took very good care of them. Congratulations. I've noticed a lot of nice looking guys here too!

    Direct Drive Whirlpool Wash Machine Question

    Shreadmore? I've never understood how people have so many problems with the dual action (Corkscrew) agitators-- my mother has had a Whirpool for the last 20 years and no clothes were ever torn, ripped or worn from it-- Yes- it does agitate pretty quickly and with a short stroke until it drops...

    August 2009 Detergent Thread

    SA8 Hi guys-- I still use SA8 with bioquest mainly because its low sudsing and smells fresh. They quit making the old formula with phosphates and I think that is what "decreased" its cleaning ability. I rarely ever really have "Dirty" clothes or towels so it works well. I actually also like the...

    Kitchen Aid BAD MISTAKE

    Not a bad machine Hi -- I bought a Kitchen Aid Dishwasher last year, just like the one pictured here on the inside, and I have had no problems with it. My only complaint is due to the energy standards, it doesn't get super hot and any plastic stuff will not get dry. Of course I don't do...

    1960's Kenmore FabricMaster Washer/Dryer

    My Grandmother had this machine My Grandmother had the exact washer that Gansky has. It was still going strong in 2000 when she died. As has been said before, the older washers were so much nicer than what is out today. Many nice features and manufacturers actually cared what their machines...

    Saturday Night KA Fun

    I was told by someone (who knows if it is true) that when Whirlpool bought Maytag the Government required them to do away with the KitchenAid brand for Washers and dryers. You would have thought they would have used the kitchen aid agitator and 3-speed motors in the Maytags-- but they didn't...

    New Maytag Centennial with Glass window

    I imagine whirlpool put that window in because of complaints. I have a MTW5707 model (the gold centennial one) and I sure called and bi****d about not being able to raise the lid and see what was going on with my clothes. I took care of that problem by by-passing that pesky lid switch. Of course...

    Why bother??

    Amen to decodriveboy's comments. Corporate america is out for profit only. I had a Whirlpool Duet-- and it was ok, but I moved and had to get rid of it due to space limitations. The thing shook like it was going to blast off when it spinned. I now have a traditional top loader and I love it...

    Dependable Care Find Today

    2 more above this one Hi there-- I have the brochure this washer is listed in. I bought the model below yours-- the LAT9704 in March 1996. I wish I still had it-- I got the urge to try a front loader in Jan 2004 and gave my Maytag to a neighbor-- she is still using it and going strong.- I moved...

    New Maytag Centennial Gold Anniversary Edition Washer

    Finally got a new SS washbasket in this washer. Boy does this thing look cheap on the inside when they took it apart to replace that Washbasket. I didn't realize they had plastic tubs- of course, plastic won't rust-- I just know my older Maytag had porcelin over steel. I also got that pesky lid...

    New Maytag Centennial Gold Anniversary Edition Washer

    Still Waiting Actually this washer seems to be doing ok-- other than all the noise when it spins. I'm real careful not to ever overload it. I'm still waiting on Whirlpool to send a new stainless steel basket-- Their customer service people are horrible. They cannot tell me or the dealer when...
