    Finally the full wash video of the new 2018 Speed Queen washer

    Tell Me Something- Since I only joined this site a couple of months ago, does this site usually go through all the hysterics I've seen on here about this Speed Queen? Do all the brands get slammed like this? It appears rather pitiful, but then, the eccentric people (including me) who would...

    Sanitizing Laundry Without Chlorine Bleach

    If Only Boiling disinfected anything. Unfortunately, it doesn't. If it did we wouldn't have had autoclaves in my hospital work...

    Lid Crud

    Super... I don't have hard water. It sounds like you and I are talking about different things. What I'm talking about, I've on basically every top loader I've looked at after some history. It's dirt--dark, going around the bleach and/or softener corners, on the area where the hinges are...

    Sanitizing Laundry Without Chlorine Bleach

    It's Not Like Febreze It's there to sanitize, not add scent. You may be using more than me, I put it to the bottom line on the agitator cup for fabric softener on this SQ 432.

    Finally the full wash video of the new 2018 Speed Queen washer

    Welcome To Brain Surgery! It definitely qualifies. I'd make a bet if it were possible to stage, that if you placed this machine side by side with your preferred, used the same supplies and dried the same, that you wouldn't be able to pick out which was which. Oh, it might not be very...

    Sanitizing Laundry Without Chlorine Bleach

    cuffs054 What difference would you expect? I'm not getting it. I use it because I just want anything my kitty picks up on is fur to get washed away. And that includes his grooming his fur. I don't use that Lysol disinfectant unless there's a reason to. I'm pleased because it really...

    Looks Fine To Me I wouldn't have any problem with this, but I usually don't do loads that full anyway. And Lord knows it's quieter than this 432 I just bought. In fact, what I like least is all the damn buttons. I do like dials. But, as someone pointed out, this might not be the machine...

    Laundry Capacity?

    I Think that you Germans need to realize, as I think I stated, that this is from a 1963 Frigidaire sales booklet. I have no idea what the average is considered these days, but knowing the people I do, it's a lot more than 6 pounds.

    Tappan Disposer

    O'Keefe and Merritt That's a name I haven't seen in a long time. I dated a girl back in the 80's who had a range with that name. She didn't like it either.

    Sanitizing Laundry Without Chlorine Bleach

    Check the Web or with your vet. I've avoided it for decades; it's nothing new.

    Vintage pink bathroom

    rp2813 I haven't heard that about LBJ, and I've read an awful lot on her. I met her once in Austin, such a sweet lady. Crooked in business, but a sweet lady. Of course, she left the WH in January of '69 and colored toilet paper went on for years after that, and colored paper towels so much...

    1959 GE Dryer Question

    The New Sprinklers from Lehman's are plastic, but they still have natural cork for the bottle end. And they work great, a lot better than trying to do like a priest-

    1959 GE Dryer Question

    I'm So Sorry! It's right where you said, in front of my face. I don't know why, but I passed that over several times. I was concentrating--well, it doesn't matter. BTW--do you have any idea why dryers quit having pedals to open the door? Like bottom-freeze refrigerators, it sure seems...

    1959 GE Dryer Question

    Could Be, but I still sprinkle rather than steam--though I usually ElnaPress with the sprayer on it. Probably just old fashioned. I know that my mother's maids used sprinkling into the mid 80's. You can still buy a sprinkler for a Coke or other bottle at Lehman's. I don't see the quote you...

    Today's Dishwasher POD

    I'd Forgotten About That! I looked at one of those in Houston but decided I needed that half of my sink--and would have to cover up the hole left by my KA Superba.

    Vintage pink bathroom

    Anyone Else Here Remember when toilet tissue came in different colors? And then there was Aurora, the expensive stuff that was colored on one ply, and white on the other. We've lost something in the last half-century with people fleeing color. Some would say it's endemic in American...

    1959 GE Dryer Question

    I just purchased the 1959 GE dryer owner's manual. Reading through it, I saw that some models had a "sprinkler" ability. Never heard of that before. It turns out that it was part of one of the vanes in the drum, and one would fill it with either hot or warm water, then run the dryer on...
