    Whirlpool Cabrio Loud Vibration During Spin

    Vacerator, your Bravos X isn't the same thing.   We charge about $200 for the Bearing job on the Cabrio/Bravos washer and we even pick it up and bring it to the shop and take it back for that price.  Sometimes it needs some persuasion to come apart and it's better to do that in private at the...

    Is this a 90s Maytag DC variant?

    This SAV washer was made in Searcy after Maytag bought Amana.  The Norgetag's were made in Herrin, IL and some Atlantis (also a Norgetag) were made in Newton.  Maytag management was not making wise decisions buying these other companies and taking their designs and integrating them into a...

    Is this a 90s Maytag DC variant?

    Vacerator This is most definitely a Dependable Care washer with the Performa name on it, like I said before.  I sold many of these washers new & used.    They had this washer out at the same time as the Norgetag Performa and the control panels had the same stripes on them.  I know the...

    Ach! Mice..

    At our cabin, it is impossible to keep the mice out.  A few hunting seasons ago, the big thing at night was to sit in the living room and watch the trap set at a whole in the wall.  Bang!  One down.  reset trap. Bang!  Another dead.  This went on for a long time.  the different cabin members had...

    Need help disassembling a new model Kenmore 600 Series dryer

    I believe there are 2 hidden clips under the control panel, one on each side. Take a thin hard plastic putty knife, push back on control panel, slip knife under each corner & pop the clips. The rest is typical 27" dryer.

    So how will YOU eat your good luck sauerkraut at the stroke of midnight?

    Here in PA Dutch country, it's pork & kraut.  This year, I have a smoked pork shoulder in the freezer that is currently defrosting and it'll go into the crock pot tomorrow morning with some kraut.

    newer speed queen screaming

    Hopefully you cancelled the service call.  Nothing more frustrating than going out on a call & the problem had already disappeared.

    Colour catch sheets?

    I use them for newer clothing for their first few washes.  The only problem I've had with them, is the sheet migrating out and getting stuck sometimes in my Kenmore HE5t washer pump.  Other than that, they do work well.

    Now This Is Something You Don't See Every Day!

    I came across this guy's facebook page a few weeks ago. If you nose around it a little, he has some videos of the machine. It's also an American Laundry Machine Co washer. http://https//www.facebook.com/Antique-Washing-Machine-217209731642305/

    Seeking Advice on this Maytag pair

    The price up there at $450-499 I meant for the pair. I didn't re-upgrade my membership yet so I can't edit my post.

    Seeking Advice on this Maytag pair

    Last models of the true dependable care line. These are good machines. The dryer should be torn down and have the rollers & idler pulley greased. That's a definite issue that should be attended to. Other than the main seal going out on the washer, it should last a long time. We usually...

    Maytag takes a commercial twist!

    It actually is the commercial version of the washer.  They use a better main seal than the home version that fits tighter around the shaft.  It also comes with a full 3 years parts & labor warranty and a 10 year motor parts warranty.  I have this pair on the floor, but I haven't sold one yet. ...

    Need a new grill. Here we go again!

    Malcom The pellets are sold in most bbq-type retailers. The major home centers (hd & blowes) just sell them online. I have a Bass Pro 35 min in 1 direction and a massive Cabelas 30 min in the other direction. They both carry the pellets in stock. I also have a stove dealer near me that...

    Need a new grill. Here we go again!

    No problem. I ended up getting the 126 model that's designed to be built-in (no cart). The picture is of the 125 model with the cart. This model retailed at about $1899-1999. I bought all three used ones for under $600 total (for all 3!) I'm going to keep one for parts, refurb one for my...

    Need a new grill. Here we go again!

    My Charbroil gas grill did not last more than 4 or 5 years before the burners rotted out. It's a shame because it did cook well on high heat, but absolutely was horrid on "low" (ie did not really go low at all). I usually love to use charcoal instead anyway. BUT.....I was at a commercial...

    Moving a washer

    You may get a little oil come out of a breather hole on the tranny. That's no big deal. Tape the lid shut so it doesn't 1) damage the control panel & 2) swing shut and break the lid switch. Other than that, it's no big deal to lay these over.
