    My Whirlpool duet It spins in between wash and rinses. The only time it does not spin between wash and rinses is in the delicate or hand wash cycle then it spins only at the end. It also rinses in cold water only.

    KitchenAid on the news

    My Whirlpool DU1005XTSB1 I just remembered when someone said something about over heated plastic. We when run our DW at the end of the drying cycle (Normal cycle, heated dry) there always is an odor in the kitchen as if something plastic has fallen thru onto the heating element. My wife just...

    KitchenAid on the news

    Maytag dishwashers with fire hazards 2007 In Feb. 2007 when Maytag had the recall on dishwashers with a fire hazard I yanked it out immediately. The DW was only 9 years old. And glad that I did! The wires directly below the rinse aid dispenser were staring to turn black from the leak from the...

    Kenmore Elite Drying So-so

    Do you use dryer sheets? If so it is possible the sensor bars nay have a build up of fabric softner or wax from using dryer sheets. We do not use dryer sheets because of the wax which could also build up in the venting to the outside. You might want to check the exchaust to the outside to see...

    GE dryer has a squeak

    How difficult is this to do? I am use to working on 1970~1980's type Maytags. They were very simple to take apart and re-assemble. I have never took apart a GE dryer before. Is it a difficult task to get to the drum bearings in the back of the machine? Thanks for the info! David

    GE dryer has a squeak

    I own a GE long vent dryer model #DLSR483EE1WW ser #RH794077A. I think we purchased it October 2005. This dryer has the blower that runs independently from the motor that turns the drum. We purchased one like this since the duct work for the dryer runs 30 feet to the outside of the house. It...

    Maytag Washer/Dryer Brochure

    These models are 1985-1986 My wife and I married in October 1986. I bought the A512 washer and DG512 dryer brand spanking new in March 1986 prior to our marriage in October. They were in use until October 2005 when the dryer literally died on the spot. The washer died in November 2005. These...

    Downy Unstopables in-wash scent booster

    Finally used Downey Unbstopables I used the Downey Unstopables this past weekend. I used them in the tee shirts/shorts I walk in. I also used them on my sweaty paint clothes and my wife's dress clothes (she works in an office). Everything came out with a nice clean light scent. I used them on a...

    Never used Dependable Care

    I wish those were in North GA That is a nice washer and dryer set. We had the D512A and the DG512A dryer we bought in March 1986. They lasted until November 2005 almost twenty years! The washers of that vintage were real work horses!

    Bounce Dryer Bar

    I don't use dryer sheets in the dryer! I don't use dryer sheets either! We had a friend once who had a 1979/1980 something Maytag electric dryer. After she started using Snuggle dryer sheets her dryer litterally started to fry her clothes. I told her and told to have the sensors replaced but it...

    Downy Unstopables in-wash scent booster

    My sister gave me some samples of these little black pouches with little white tablets in it. It says to toss them in your washer prior to loading with clothes. You then add your detergent and fabric softner as usual. Has anybody used them? I'm a little leary of using them for various reasons...

    Modern Dual-Motor Dryers

    GE Model #DLSR483EE1WW/Ser #RH94077A We bought this GE dryer in October 2007 when our 20 year old Maytag gas dryer model #DG512A bit the dust. I decided on a "Long Vent Dryer" since the ductwork for the dryer runs almost 30 feet to the outside with one elbow. It use to take forever (well...

    How Washington, DC Ruined Your Washing Machine

    My error I ment to say when we had a TL (Maytag 512A) it PUMPED 48+ gallons of water into my septic tank (we're not on city sewage) versus 22+ gallons from my FL. We got the FL after we got rid of the Maytag after it went belly up. Didn't know about AWO at the time.

    How Washington, DC Ruined Your Washing Machine

    Love my front loader We have been using a Whirlpool Duet HT since November 2007. I agree with Appnut! The FL is much easier on our clothes and yes they are lastig longer. I do however agree with Malcom in how the FL are advertised. You cannot pack it to the gills and expect everything to come...

    Whirlpool Duet HT- HELP PLEASE!

    Leveling washer I have spent the entire afternoon getting my Duet leveled during the spins. I washed 2 pretty good size loads of area rugs. Nothing can get a washer off balance like rugs. Almost vibration free! I also put about 45lbs of hand weights in the drawer of the pedestal. So far so...
