    Dollar Stores

    We have all of them.. Family Dollar, Dollar Tree, and Dollar General. We don't do a lot of shopping at any of them, but there is a Dollar General about 3 blocks from our house, so it's the convenience factor sometimes. Dollar General seems to be taking over around here, there is at least 5 of...

    Best “Modern” Dishwasher

    The Whirlpools listed above are better machines.. Having owned both in the past. The Bosch machines will be quieter, probably more efficient, but have NO heated drying function. You won't consider it an issue until it has to be left with the door open for 24hrs to dry... The Point Voyager system...

    Fun thread, favorite dishwasher detergent?

    We use Cascade Platinum pods (I prefer the OXI version) and I use store brand gel (Meijer) in the prewash. Haven't found anything else that cleans in our hard water.

    Does anyone own this dryer and know how reliable it is thanks

    We had a Samsung dryer (US, not sure if they are the same everywhere) and it was awful. It was 4-5 years old and had both drum rollers replaced at about year 2, then the belt tensioner pulley failed about year 3, and a second time about a year later. It didn't dry evenly, and would roll blankets...

    Speed Queen Washer model AWN432

    I'm having the same issue.. Hot fills at a fast trickle, warm has decent flow and cold just dribbles in. Screens are clean. Seems to be slowly getting worse.

    What is the strangest stuff you found in an washing Machine

    I once found almost $20 in change inside an early 90's Kenmore gas dryer that was a free curbside find. I assume the coins slipped through the felt seals over the years and just collected where they fell. Also found a few inside the blower and lint trap area but those didn't amount to much. The...

    Converting whirlpool dishwasher wash system to tower style

    Having owned and used both style machines, I cannot begin to imagine why you would want the wash tower in the lower rack! You get the same, if not better performance with the feed tube system, and no lost space in the lower rack.

    How old is this Speed Queen?

    We have the same model manufactured in 2006, and it's been great. Bought it 4-5 years ago for $20 and hasn't missed a beat.

    Trump administration sued over dishwasher efficiency

    I don't consider this full blown politics, appliances are involved! Not interested in sharing my political views here, but if machines could use 25% more energy/water on a designated cycle, we would have some awesome cleaning machines- keep the energy efficient "normal" cycle for the people that...

    Uninformed Washer Users

    Since you're going totally off topic anyway, I have the same stance on the face diapers as your brother in law! They are the most useless pieces of garbage that ever existed, and yes, I firmly believe the masks are part of the problem- trapping viruses and bacteria and releasing them. There is...

    Maytag A806

    As long as you're diligent about turning the faucets off, it will likely run for years like that- I have a Maytag Neptune in the basement (5500) that has a leaky hot water valve, and it's been going for years that way. As long as the faucet is turned off after a cycle, no issues. If someone...

    Antique Gas stove.. Here we go again? Need all the info I can get!

    I can't see anything in the link unfortunately, just takes me to a blank search for FB marketplace. I did find a sweet deal on a set of appliances- I got a Whirlpool Gold (looks top of the line) Gas stove, Whirlpool Quiet Partner I powerclean dishwasher, and GE over the range Microwave.. All in...

    Antique Gas stove.. Here we go again? Need all the info I can get!

    Project has been abandoned.. When I said it may take time to get into working condition, attitude changed and we need a stove yesterday. Looking for another cheapy on Craigslist and we'll go from there. Pretty disappointed but it is what it is.

    Antique Gas stove.. Here we go again? Need all the info I can get!

    Ok, as far as the oven thermostat- it turns freely, and the knob below (I'm assuming the on/off for the oven?) Could be pushed in and turned. How likely is it to function to some degree? Neither I or my friends are gourmet cooks, so if it could be accurate to within a hundred degrees it would be...

    Antique Gas stove.. Here we go again? Need all the info I can get!

    I've also used gas appliances with and without pilot lights, and after the fiasco with the last modern stove, would prefer to stay away from electronic ignition. Have a lit match or lighter on hand, then carefully turn on the gas. I'm assuming it wouldn't be a common occurrence for the burner to...

    Antique Gas stove.. Here we go again? Need all the info I can get!

    RP2813- I'm sorry for the rude reply, I wasn't saying your post specifically, yours was likely the most informative one in the thread- more of what I'm asking is what would likely make it "beyond repair"? I am definitely stubborn and I'm up for the challenge of getting it back to working...

    Antique Gas stove.. Here we go again? Need all the info I can get!

    I think I'm done here.. Not sure how the topic switched from a vintage appliance to our rental terms, but it's honestly none of anyone's business. We have been renting under the same terms for 5+ years. Second, although I support it, I'm only looking at the stove because I was asked to, I got a...

    Antique Gas stove.. Here we go again? Need all the info I can get!

    Rental terms aside, I went and looked at the stove tonight (if anyone is interested in the stove?) And it is very solid- yes some surface rust in the drawers, very little in the oven, all knobs and controls do turn. Seller said he got it from a barn so it had been inside, except for the last 2...
