    The weirdest stain I ever had to tackle - ABS plastic

    FWIW, brakleen is perchloroethylene, or at the very least it can be. theres a number of formulas that are under the same name, but one of them is solely perchloroethylene. it is also sometimes called tetrachloroethylene.

    New Whirlpool dishwasher side vents. How do they work?

    I believe those are air intakes for the fan assisted drying. I'm not entirely certain on how it works, but i believe theres a small fan in the door that blows into the top vent on the door.

    Couple of washer questions

    oh man.... a new LG would have been miles better than that.... bet the current one is easily repairable too, could be as simple as something stuck in the pump :/

    Newer Maytag dishwasher MDB4949SHZ installed

    the point voyagers (or at the very least my point voyager) Use both a pressure sensor and a optical sensor. Taking mine apart you can immediately see the optical sensor, but IDK where the pressure sensor is, it might just be hidden deeper within. The point voyager certainly isn't the best, but...

    whirlpool vs. bosch

    Bosch's wash pumps have been 3 phase variable speed for a long time. as far as I know, the point voyager platform including the newer maytag variants have always been single speed motors, whereas the kitchenaids/maybe higher end whirlpools with the global wash system/resource saver/tahoe...

    Washer - Specialized Cycles

    Interesting, so do they expect you to put the legos in a bag? I'd assume so, some of those small pieces are bound to fall through into the sump.

    Whirlpool dishwasher heating issue

    if the element really was glowing red hot when you opened the dishwasher, I'd of course stop using it until you can figure out why. It should not be getting that hot under any circumstance and that poses a fire risk, and you've noticed the tub melting too. is it hot while the dishwasher is...

    Kitchenaid Dishwasher

    We're eyeing the KDTM604KPS as a replacement for our current kitchenaid. How does this one perform?

    PLEASE READ THIS, My Appologies Everyone!

    I am amazed at how quickly you were able to restore the website, and glad that you are keeping backups! I second the notion of changing passwords, it is probably a good safety measure either way.

    F&P motor Cabrios

    I believe the F&P style motor version of these is much better than the VMW due to having a better designed impeller that has larger vanes that roll over clothes better. not certain, but I'd say repair it if its just that water valve.

    New Dishwasher ordered

    Agreed! There aren't many videos of these machines out there. in fact, this is the only one of the inside I've been able to find: I am hopefully getting one in the next few months and will be sure to take video! depends on how long it takes for our kitchen to get put back together after our old...

    New Dishwasher ordered

    its the same system used in the kitchenaid models. up until this generation, maytag used a wash system that I believe was based upon the point voyager, whirlpools last mainline wash system to not alternate arms. they are the last of the whirlpool built brands to shift to alternating arms.

    Steam Dryer Search

    we love our LG steam dryer. works wonders to freshen up sheets and will release wrinkles decently (doesn't replace an iron, but certainly lessens the job and in some cases, eliminates it entirely). I've found the normal cycle on it does a decent job but in certain circumstances (jeans, other...

    BEST Fuel choices: Electric, NG/propane, coal, wood, Solar, etc.

    1. Your fuel situation, what you use in your home and auto? Home is a combination of gas and electric, we use gas for our water heater, HVAC, and stovetop. everything else is electric including the oven and clothes dryer. 2. Are you in the industry, in other words biased. Do you work for a...

    Why the heck did Frigidaire Discontinue the Bearing-Hitch/Ball-Hitch/Rear Coil dryers?

    to be fair... I think a lot of those dents are caused both by high speed cart collisions and moving the demo appliances around.

    My new LG 4000 series washer and dryer

    I believe it can be read by pressing the Delay button and the Temp select button and holding both down.
