For me it was a Dodge Caliber....in safety yellow. Somehow the Drivers Ed school I went to still has that car in their fleet 10 years later, even despite the fact that the Nissan/Jatco CVT those things had were notoriously unreliable.  

I haven’t had any issues with my SQ gas dryer, which as we all know is infamous for incinerating clothes. The highest setting isn’t any hotter than the Samsungtag it replaced, and the medium setting is just a little cooler than it. It might help that I set the timer to run it just long enough...

Nice job on the spider! That was never an issue with ours, ran 9 years just fine without the spider self destructing. It's issues were the suspension and bearings failing, which started happening early after about 5 years, the other 4 years was just limping it along. 

I just sold a couple electronic items I had laying around and didn't want anymore on eBay, I didn't really expect to make much money on it. However I noticed that my final value fee/other fees amounts to just over $11 for an item that sold for $87 and another that sold for $9.99. Plus there's...

I would undoubtedly dump something on myself within the first few days and need to wash it anyway.

Those Samsung built Amana’s and Maytags were junk! Put a bad taste in my mouth for front loaders and especially Samsung appliances.

I would’ve been none the wiser that the change actually happened had this post not been made. (In other words it seems to have gone very smoothly)

I replaced my softener cup with the blank cap cuz people kept missing and getting detergent or borax in there and I'm the only one that bothers to keep things clean, so blank cap it is! I use a Downy ball for the occasion I do use softener. ...

Well that doesn't surprise me. That gap always irked me. 

At work I’m mainly using Philips and Osram, the sconces are using Cree, and the chandeliers have some Ecosmart candelabras as well. Philips and Osram have held up the best. Cree seems to only last a few years. I noticed last time I was at Home Depot they started carrying only the filament style...

I had ants take over my shower (first time I had ants in there) and more kept coming, so I put out a Terro liquid ant bait (which drew yet even more) and now I'm down to only seeing the occasional ant in there. Hopefully they're all dead, but they have a sneaky way of coming back with a...

My set mismatches the other way around. I have the matching washer to your dryer. In the end it really doesn’t matter but my OCD sure would love matching control panels.

The indexing will go away after about 6 months.

I think it’s fairly universally agreed upon here that the only good top loader is one that uses a full tub of water and has a real agitator. The real debate is about who had the best one....or FL vs TL.

The new control layout sounds a little odd but I’m really glad they’re bringing back a transmission machine. My aunt bought the commercial Maytag and it’s already having random out of balance issues with the outer tub slamming into the chassis pretty hard as it speeds up, which a SQ would never...

I like Meijer because they usually have what I’m looking for and cater more to local tastes than big national chains like wal mart and Target which tend to stock pretty much the same things nationwide and don’t bother carrying a large selection. I like Meijers appliance section for instance, 3x...

I’ve got the 2018 model / DR7 and there are no eco nazi changes to them over the last one. It does have Eco Dry which is an option that decreases heat by 10% after the heat setpoint is satisfied initially. I’ve personally found the sensor dry to over dry by about 15-20 minutes, I haven’t really...

I’ve never seen one tilt that much. I’m inclined to believe something is wrong.

I use FaxZero when I have to send faxes, which is perodically, maybe once or twice a year. The state government only accepts documents via snail mail or fax but ironically their faxes go to a server and are accessible online. They should offer email or submission via their web portal as another...

If it’s coming out of the Residential Gateway (RG), which is the crappy router they give you, then it’s VoIP and not based out of the local CO. If it’s coming out of the ONT (little white box mounted inside the house or mounted in the NID outside) then it’s fiber based POTS. In either...
