    Criterion Washer and Dryer

    I was at Menards today and I noticed this Criterion washer and dryer. I believe Criterion is an in house brand for Menards, I’ve seen it on microwaves and small fridges but not on a washer and dryer. The model tag says made in China so I guess that’s all we need to know about it but I wonder if...

    Amana Dishwashers

    Is anyone familiar with the history of Amana? Just looking around it seems that their name has shown up in several different platforms. Was there ever an actual Amana machine that wasn’t a rebadge? The Amanas I found so far are Maytag short tub and tall tub Frigidaire Whirlpool Point Voyager...

    KA dw without a Sensor cycle

    That looks like a point voyager model. The soil sensor was actually a pressure sensor...it sensed the back pressure in the soil accumulation chamber. In the point voyager KA I had anyways the soil sensor would trigger APF purges and based on the number of purges activated would do a purge/final...

    Loving the GE Potscrubber!

    The 1200s are fabulous aren’t they! I have an older Potscrubber III (in storage at the moment unfortunately) that was one step down from the Rapid Advance TOL. Very similar features wise...there’s just something charming about that console set up with the little viewing window. Hopefully it...

    Dishwasher sighting tonight

    I believe they have used the UltraWash label for several generations of machines, not just the Powerclean based ones. If it really is a PC system it would be worth nabbing...the SS tank ones where pretty rare birds.

    Older Whirlpool/Kenmore dishwasher detergent dispenser not functioning

    Here is a link for the service literature. The machines listed are a little older than yours so hopefully the information is applicable. Page 20 references the diagnostic mode. Detergent trip is in interval 8. If you haven’t done so I’d also pull the door panel off just the make sure...

    Dishwasher sighting tonight

    Was it a power clean or a point voyager? People throw all really nice things all the time for strange reasons.

    Waste King Universal Dishwasher SS/950 - need owners manual

    Did the Waste King version have the steam generator and steam cycle sequence like it’s Thermador Cousin?

    What makes an older Wascomat whistle as it spins up/down?

    I will agree with Gizmo about the older motors and the shift in windings. The sudden and dramatic change in speed is what makes them have that distinctive whirring noise. As the machines get heavy use the belts can start to slip under the sudden load changes too and add the noise. Almost all...

    A new toy!

    Beautiful machine! Looks to be in pretty good shape given the dodgy build quality. Can’t wait to see it loaded up and to explore all the engineering “quirks!”

    Who made this GE dishwasher

    Did GE make this dishwasher or is it a rebadge? It looks European to me.

    Commercial dishwashers for residential use?

    Miele makes some professional units that I suppose you could call crossover machines where they have cycles that can be used like a regular dishwasher or you can use like a commercial machine with a. 90 second wash cycle and short sanitation rinse. However they are $$$$$ and the ones that can do...

    GE Potscrubber 1200 Score

    Beautiful machine! I’ve always loved 1200s. When I rebuilt my Potscrubber III I put the newer PCS motor in it as the old one was leaking. The performance is just as good as before and the newer unit is quieter. It’s very easy to change out. I would recommend putting the newer style sump on it...

    Laundry Strips

    So an ad for this product popped up on my YouTube the other day. Apparently they are taking the pod idea and making it more environmentally friendly with less packaging in the form of the strip. Tear a sheet off and just pop it in the wash. I wonder if it’s any good? They claim that their...

    Cute Countertop Dishwasher with Water Reservoir

    I think this makes more sense than the in sink dishwasher that was recently discussed. Both have a fruit wash program, but this one doesn’t require 240V, and also you don’t have to prerinse, just scrape off large chunks. Would be handy for rinsing off prep dishes and the like. Quickest cycle is...

    Maytag MDBTT59AWW vs. GE Potscrubber 845

    From what I can tell the Maytag is a real Maytag tall tub machine, not a whirlpool clone. I have not personally used one but other members here have reporting having good luck with them. It certainly would be quieter, more efficient and have easier to use racking. The GE you have does have...
