Been seeing this ad in moderately heavy circulation on Hulu. In it, the launderer takes a whiff of his Downy-infused clothing while standing next to his present-day laundry pair. He has a memory of standing next to an 80's Filter Flo pair. He takes another whiff and now is standing next to a...

I sampled S1:E4. Interesting kitchen appliances in two different homes. I saw in the credits that the play is done in British Columbia, so I supposed that I was looking at Canadian versions of US manufacturers? It amused me that Betty's kitchen has this deluxe wall oven and cooktop set, but the...

Thanks, Glenn!

Toyota? You have me curious. How does an American sized appliance that looks like other units from an American corporation get branded with a Japanese name?

Schultz did a good job drawing the Van Pelts' washer dryer set in that cartoon. I took said dryer to be a Speed Queen, as it had a foot pedal operated door latch. At eight years old, I was unsophisticated in the number of other mfg who used foot pedals.

Reply# 48 Breeze offered a free gift inside the box - towels. Mrs. Parton was so cute the way she'd say "daisiz" (sic).

80% chance.

Reply# 6 You got a sharp eye, Lem - I had not seen that.

Year My guess would be late '86 all the way to 1991 or even later. That's only a qualified guess. For a definite guess, I would need a picture of the wash tub to see whether it is equipped with the Super Surgilator extra rollover - WP's version of the Sears Roebuck Dual Action agi. It did not...

Was the company in any way associated with the Rolls-Royce company that manufactures cars and airplane engines; or, is the name entirely coincidental?

Am I recalling correctly that the clear plastic timer dial was incandescently backlit?

Looks also like Best Buy's Insignia brand.

My apologies if this has previously been discussed. Top loading H-axis clothes washers seems like a can't-fail idea. Can anyone say why it has not caught on big...well, not here in the States? I recall threads in the Deluxe forum re: Staber which I'll hunt up and look through. I thought I...

I have preferred black appliances since 1977, and do not know what I will equip my kitchen with if black completely goes away.

Reply# 20 Thanks for the tip on face cream. I need to read back through and see whether there are any other suggestions. For an anti-wrinkle treatment, I've been using Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair cream. But, I don't know if that's the best, and have been looking around. Possibly, that...

Dr. Squatch Sooo...I finally was coaxed by the creative, clever commercials on YouTube and Facebook (and there are very few three minute ads I will sit through without clicking Skip), and got me some Squatch. These ads make it appear that all products can be had only with a subscription. But...

Here's a cringe-inducing film for us laundry nerds: The scene in "The Accidental Tourist (1988)" where William Hurt's character gets a load of wash going in a Whirlpool Imperial (looks to be a 1986 model), then starts up the basement stairs. As he's going, the washer shifts into spin-dry, goes...

What was the story about continuous clean? Was it a coating on the walls that repelled cooking by products, and then one just wiped everything down with a damp rag, no need to use harsh cleaners?

Glen: Did hers have a straight vane agi, or a dual action? Might the straight vane models have had different features? Gosh, I wish I knew what the model number for ours was!
