I would love to see this technology *expanded* -- I know that previous generations of Sensi-Temp-like burners were often unreliable but I still think that if we have good-enough technology presently to sense the temperature and let the user select the desired temperature, it would be a huge...

You ask questions in such a way that it's difficult for most people to know if you are being naive, or sarcastic, or trolling etc. Let's start with "ignorance is not a sin, and it's easy to fix". On the other hand, ignorant people often ask questions in a different way, that doesn't sound...

I find it weirdly ironic that you keep mentioning the Breville smart ovens. Yes, they *do* work very well, that's true. And they do have multiple elements. But they are very possibly the or one of the most over controlled ovens -- the microprocessor even sports anywhere from 6 to 13 (possibly...

Yup, I expect(ed) the internal competition, that was par for the course at P&G, what I was wondering was if the general public was aware of it and their opinions about it if any.

I have a few stupid questions about what people's experience with some of those products were. How was Dash compared to All when it came to cleaning and rinsing? How about other detergents? Was this just P&G's response to All, or were there more low-sudsing detergents back then, besides Dash...

Enjoy it in good health!!!

Jim, while that is something that some people like to do to show off, it's not something you want to do. Doing that makes the clutch wear out waaay faster than normal, and, as more and more cars do not have a clutch anymore, it's getting more and more expensive to maintain, and you already have...

Two very short thoughts: One: Many many times I've been in the situation of driving a car which was supposedly exactly like mine, same year, make and model with the same accessories (friends' and family members' cars) but which it would take me a short bit of time to get used to the clutches...

I'd say at least half the people here in the Northeast know how to drive a stick shift just fine. For the longest time, stick shifts were about a couple of thousand dollars cheaper, so everyone who had student loans to pay or was just starting life away from their parents and didn't have a big...

We've bought 6 Philips Hue bulbs (full color) so far and we'll probably buy more. They are easy to install and use, they download their own firmware update to keep current and they are easy to reset and adjust from a smartphone. We used to have a lot of trouble with people trying to find our...

Hi! Welcome back! There is a "search the forum" box on top right of every forum. Underneath you can use the "Super Searchalator" if you are an upgraded member and want to search multiple forums at once, including the two upgraded forums. Either way, I ran a search and the following threads...

Yay, thank you!!!

Long and short of it is, I don't know either. Then again, here's what I have seen people do: they put as many clothes inside the machines as they possibly could have _forced_ in. To the point that at the end of the cycle, clothes on the top are *still* on the top and *dry*. Sometimes, as the...

I bought the Yama 8-cup pot many years ago. It does make very good coffee, but between the steep price back then (it's imported from Japan, and apparently hand-made, so it was close to 100 bucks) and the need to hand wash, which makes me afraid of breaking it, it got little use. The need to...

Dave (LowEfficiency) asked: « Is that really a problem though with proper bearing selection?» Well, it depends quite heavily on who you ask. And, I am probably not the right or best person to ask. If you knew my dad, you could ask him, or I might ask him when I visit him in July or so. He was...

I will disagree slightly with Henrik on a couple of points. First, most bearings favor only one direction of operation; top-loading machines require the bearing to both resist forces side-to-side (from spinning or rotating) and up-and-down (to support the basket and/or agitator/impeller). No...

I've been using metal in the microwave since the mid-80's. There are a few things to be careful with -- a lot of people forget that carafes with the metal band to hold the handle is not a closed circuit, and it might melt the handle for example. But I've been using aluminum foil (particularly...

To me, anyway, the ironic part is that Ms. Josephine Cochrane is either laughing or having a conniption fit from beyond her grave, having supposedly invented the dishwasher to protect her fragile dishes. And yeah, things have changed, a lot, in fact. And some dishes may be too fragile for some...

Steve, that's kinda weird that the rack is fixed, you seem to have a pretty high-end model even if it's a couple of years old or so. Take a look at the user guide, it might tell you how to remove the rack(s). In case you don't have the user guide, I've been taking a look at their website...

Thank you Glenn, that is indeed very helpful!
