    1975 Model Dishwasher Ratings from Consumer Reports

    It sounds like you made the correct choice to pass on that purchase. I can't believe that my classic favorite, the Kenmore dishwasher, isn't on the top of that list. I mean, really. Just because it had no filter and the upper roto-rack lost useable space by it's very shape is no reason to...

    Growing Celery From the Base of a Stalk

    Miracle grow? I hope you've made sure the fertilizer is for EATABLE plants. Celery is particularly difficult to grow. It is very water intensive and without the correct mixture of nutrients will be bitter. I wish you the best but don't be surprised if it doesn't work out. What I recently...

    Unusual grime/Lindt left on my laundry after using brandt

    Oh GREAT! An engaging post about SCRUD. We learn something new everyday. ---- I was going to suggest that hard water deposits that can accumulate on the outside of the basket had come loose and implanted themselves on the clothes because there was not enough detergent to keep it from settling.

    Dual-Action BD LK PotD

    #11 Sadly, that set was damaged about 4 months after the pics were taken. They were in a storage unit against the back wall, another tenant backed a boat into the wall and damaged these two plus another washer and a desk. I parted them out saving the consoles, all the parts having to do with...

    Dual-Action BD LK PotD

    That's an awesome avocado pair Melvin. These are 76 or 77...or are they 82 with that black hood? I had a 1978 TOL electronic pair in that same color. Fun toys. When I had my previous profile (which I found the password to about a year ago but don't use it)...

    Early Inglis Belt Drive Set

    Have you figured out how to get the sudsaver to work? Are you going to keep the sud valve? I've had a couple of Whirlpool made washers with those double dispensers and they were always a mess like that. They really should have had a small stream of water running when they were open to rinse...

    Overpriced harvest gold Westy range and Amana dishwasher

    I don't know now It's sounds like Amanda's kind of a trampy dishwasher. I don't want something with a bad reputation. I mean it's supposed to be a dishwasher and clean the dishes. I don't want an Amanda that's had another man's dishes inside of her.

    Overpriced harvest gold Westy range and Amana dishwasher

    I'm placing my order for an "Amanda Master Clean 6000" dishwasher in harvest gold and with a blank cover where the knob would go. Ohhh-ohhhh I can't WAIT! It sounds like a fictitious product they would have used on Married with Children or something but I know it's for real.

    Name That Refrigerator!

    It has those 70s Frigidaire full-height curved handles with the wood grain accent. Mine looked like this frig but with the Kenmore handles shown on the model for sale. I think they made two sizes of these probably 18 and 21 c.f. The one currently for sale looks like the larger cap. The...

    GE Power Shower

    I wonder if this is a model with the cute little mini spray arm under the silverware basket. The "power scrub" I think it was called. I found one of these in the early 80s. It ran but had a golf ball sized rust hole in the tub very near the motor so.... But before sending it off to the metal...

    Incandescent light bulb BAN goes into effect next week

    It's no surprise Mercury Vapor bulbs are set to be eliminated per 2005 EPA rules change. I didn't know this but considering they use MERCURY, OMG! And the transformers making noise- whether it's flourescent or these gased up bulbs, the noise is nearly always present. I mean it's been...

    Name That Refrigerator!

    I had one of these in almond around 1996 I got when I was removing trade ins for a dealer. It worked fine and ended up selling it for $250.

    Incandescent light bulb BAN goes into effect next week

    Those old HPS and other bulbs that need a transformer are kind of scary. The transformer makes noise so right there that's a big no for me. I have seen situations where the transformer literally leaked substance, probably some type of toxic oil. And the bulbs are not stable. They will lose...

    Automotive Market is Faster Shifting to China.

    China is miles ahead of all countries in it's EV production.   Countries like Germany know it's just better to let China build the car bodies and then slap their traditional name plate(s) on the vehicle.   I don't see how this doesn't happen everywhere, or the old companies like Ford or GM...

    Have you seen these portable washing machines??

    Using the spinner So I put it right next to the washer so I can take clothing out and maneuver them over and into the tub without dripping on the floor.   try and keep them loose as possible so they can move around.  don't just throw balled up clothes in there.  Then push the mass down and...

    Have you seen these portable washing machines??

    If you have a WP Duet.... it's got a SS tub too. No sharp edges. Put the clothes in from the top instead of the front. Put detergent on the top of the drum(not too much), put vinegar (or whatever you want to use for the rinse agent) in the dispenser on the left side, close the lid, turn the...
