    No Consumer Speed Queen Front Loaders in 2018??

    Lord Kenmore Amen! I'd say at least half of my loads are medium or small. Because I sort, and I also live alone.

    No Consumer Speed Queen Front Loaders in 2018??

    This Won't Be The End They'll be back, I have no doubt. Does anyone on here know how they sold? I know my local dealer only had the top loaders on the floor. And I agree with others--I'd definitely expect an internal heater at that price, regardless of length of guarantee. And as fat pig...

    GE VIR owners?

    48bencix Just like our old computer screens, I think something was lost in 'roundness' of image when we went to flat screens. I know that late 70's GE had a great picture, and I don't think the flat screen in my den shows as well. Reminds me of the comparison between LP's and CD's. There's a...

    Thanks, Malcolm Glad to see that everyone on here isn't leaping to conclusions-

    toploader The Vert is a good juicer. I'm too lazy to prep stuff properly for it, and I have the counter space for the NC800. I switched to single auger back around 2000; this is the third one I've had. I really, really like the homogenizing function for the banana 'sorbet' with various...

    Whole Foods I started shopping at WF in the original store well over 30 years ago in Austin. Where I live now, there is no local store. I shopped for years in Houston on the store on S. Shepherd but I think that's been replaced now. I started juicing in the 70's with an Acme Juicerator...

    New SQ Agitator

    In the end run, I don't get my clothes or any other laundry particularly dirty. I can't see ANY washer on the market not getting my clothes clean--as long as they get wet and exposed to the detergent. Those plate things still seem to leave too much not getting wet at all, or just to rinse...

    The Funny Thing About Cow Titty Milk is that apparently it's all reduced to skim, then the proper amount of butterfat is just added back in to make it whatever fat level they need.

    I Thought it was made clear that autofill was part of the Eco thing...am I wrong? I thought the guy said owners could still choose their water level on the regular cycles.

    GE VIR owners?

    Yeah, but these TV's were definitely from the 70's; I bought mine in 1978.

    Thanks so much! That answers my question-

    New SQ Agitator

    mrb627 Agreed. This is a premium-priced product. Any design of the plastic agitator would cost roughly the same amount, so why intentionally design it to not work well? If this were a $300 washer being redesigned, I would view it differently. I don't get the impression, regardless of company...

    New SQ Agitator

    I'm Sorry, but I don't 'know it'. It's not in my nature to assume bad things about people without sufficient information. I'm no washing machine expert. I do realize that such things as adding ribs on the wash tub could've been done easily. Etc. Perhaps Alliance is lying to all of us...

    John L So why do you think Alliance intentionally designed a machine that wouldn't wash well?

    This was the ad that reminded me of that fine old TV- I added another, too, from 1977-78

    Your dishwasher: What's best? a dirty load going in, or a clean load coming out?

    ? I don't understand what the question is-

    Sorry- what's the blue screen? It's been 35 years ago since I owned it.

    Jim- I've been following nutritional leanings since college in the 70's, the old days of protein-combining to reach the 'magic 7'. One thing you'll find if you spend the time is that there are as many theories about nutrition as there are items in the grocery store. Witness all the high/low...

    Old habits die hard, as so many of us know. I began, forty-plus years ago, of watching my food expenses closely in college. Fortunately, I went vegan within a few months, so I was able to calculate costs. To this day, I'll mentally think of the cost-per-meal when I fix recipes. For example, I...
