It's odd the previous owner didn't get a refund, or a warranty repair. Really, if it did that since new, he would just get a refund/exchange from Lowes. If he really only did 50 loads, it would be less than a year old (under warranty). I have feeling he used it more than he thought he did, or...

i think its 1988 but not sure about the model number It looks just like my old 1989 A211, but it has a lot more options. Looks like it's a A712, never guess where I found it! https://www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREAD.cgi?14498

I never cared for Polaroid instamatics. The quality was horrible, and the prints didn't age well at all. Always stuck to 35mm. I went digital for cameras in 2004, and have never looked back. No more paying to develop film, just to find out you took some lousy pictures! I also prefer to view my...

From all the research I did last year, LG seemed to get the best reviews for reliability. This scared me, so I went with Speed Queen. Any reason you aren't considering them?

Someone bought the Polaroid name 20 years ago. They have been branding all sorts of things with the name, TV. radios, digital cameras, and even instant Polaroid cameras, etc. My guess would be it's a new instant camera, but who knows.

Reply #15 I'm not sure why my mother in laws, and neighbors machines take so long. I know they take forever to fill, as they will stop filling, rotate, start filling again (auto balancing?). And a few other oddities, like very long pauses between wash/spin/fill cycles. My neighbor has Kenmore's...

A soak period before the rinse, and a longer agitation time. The charts are a bit confusing, as it only gives total time without any options. There is this: Heavy Soil - Fill/Agitate/Soak/spin 24:00 Others: Wash - Fill/Agitate/Spin 17:30 I have no idea how much of that extra 6.5 minutes is...

appnut I meant that I don't have the choice for a longer cycle. According to the TC5 manual, Eco, which I don't use is 27:50, with no options, 34:50 with extra rinse. Permanent Press is 29:40, and ALL others are 32:40. I find it's closer to 35 minutes. Heavy soil has the pre-soak, and I did...

My TC5 takes 35 minutes. I have no choice (unless I do a pre-soak, never have), and it seems fine. My mother in law, and my neighbors top loaders shortest cycles take about 80 - 90 minutes, and they don't have any choice. And they don't like it. Does the SQ that Jerome uses take longer? My...

Reply #29 We still manufacture plenty in the USA, and it's still growing. We also are the number 2 exporter in the world, second only to China. But we still export half as much as they do, with less that 1/4 the population. We were doing fine. Don't buy into all the nonsense...

Reply #25 Building everything here was never the point of the tariffs. Notice victory has already been claimed? Even though NOTHING has changed. We used to call it insider trading...

Don't know if anyone else noticed, but MANY companies announced layoffs after someone claimed he would tariff the entire world, steel, and aluminum. And many aren't appliance makers. But appliance makers do rely heavily on steel, and Chinese electronics.

Fake reviews? I don't think the reviews are fake. But people are much more likely to review or comment on a product if it breaks, or has other issues. And I don't consider YouTube comments to be reviews. Reviews are always biased toward the negative. People who never have an issue, don't have...

OK, I've never seen a control box around here. Just submersibles with built in capacitors, so you can't replace just the cap, and no control box. If you can't get the pressure switch to get to 30/50, the switch or pressure gauge is bad. Both are pretty cheap, easy DIY. When I got a new tank, my...

BTW Do you have an above ground pump, or submersible? There's no capacitor on a well tank or switch. Submersible are generally not replaced, you get a new pump.

You have to empty the tank to check the air pressure. Should be 28psi in your case. That is a big tank, and has a draw down of 13.9 at the 30/50 setting. Are you saying it was 6.1 lbs. low on tank air pressure? Set it to 28, and recheck in a week or two. If you see any water come out when you...

Reply #159 Have you checked the bladder on your storage tank? Ours is a 22 gallon tank, which is misleading, it releases 8.25 gallons before triggering the pump. Two toilet flushes should NOT require the pump to run. That's just over 3 gallons. Bladder in our original tank (Well-X-Trol) lasted...

chetlaham Read the text for the chart you posted. NEAR SURFACE WATER. We don't draw water from the surface, or near surface. And a rando pic from Reddit. Probably has his pipes on an outside wall... Try harder.

Reply #17 Right, where there is permafrost (AK) the temp will be lower. Wherever it freezes, we do not run pipes above the ground. Even most hot states don't do that. It's not up to code. 6-8ft under ground, is 55 tp 60 degrees across most the United States. Poorly designed systems are an anomaly.
