    The Hotpoint Hydrowave is here!

    No its not My model is WPRE8100G0WT, and its NOT Energy Star rated, so you may have hit upon something there. This model is no longer for sale, and the only model I see that is comparable is a 6100, that also is not ES rated. I'll be looking for that in the future. First they mess up the...

    The Hotpoint Hydrowave is here!

    Super Level,,,, Super level, which is the maximum setting, is 1/4" below the 2nd hole down from the top on mine, so I'd say you're way too low for sure.

    The Hotpoint Hydrowave is here!

    Front panel removal,,, A screwdriver would likely be too thick and bend/scratch the panel. Use a putty knife. There are 2 spring type clips at the top about 4 inches in from each side. Locate them, then just push the putty knife in from the front, pushing gently towards the back, while grasping...

    The Hotpoint Hydrowave is here!

    No brake,,, I own a TOL GE Hydrowave, and as far as I can tell, the machine has no typical tub brake. At the end of the cycle, it just coasts to a stop, unless the lid is lifted during that time, then the motor is electrically engaged in reverse,for a quick stop. That is the electrical "whine"...

    GE Steam Dishwasher

    The gimmick is The Smart dispenser is the main gimmick here. It boost's the cost of this machine considerably. I have a GE PWD7300, that has operated flawlessly since installed in 2001. I am fully capable of putting soap in the dispenser and closing the dispenser door after loading the machine...

    need to know the age of these Maytags

    The dryer is slightly older than the washer. The dryer is from the early 80s, and the washer, mid 80s.

    Saving Electricity, run Dehumidifier longer or frequent start stops

    Let it cycle Compressors have locked rotor amperage (LRA on ID plate) and run current amperage. Locked rotor is the amps it draws on start up, and it is higher than run current amps, but it only draws that current for a split second, after that it draws run current amperage. So having it cycle...

    Another GE Triton XL

    Mutiwattage heating element I have the PDW7300 from GE, and many people don't know the heating element is muti-wattage, meaning it runs on high to heat the water, and low to dry, thereby eliminating warpage/melting of plastic items washed even in the bottom rack. So yes, your salad maker will...

    GE Hydrowave!

    No problems spinnig I've had mine for almost a year, and have never had any water left in the tub, and the clothes come out as dry as can be expected for a 650-700 RPM spin. Only recently was there one time I noticed it started banging from an off balance load, and I think it shut itself down...

    GE Hydrowave!

    You get what you pay for The spin speed is 650-700 on these machines. If you want more, you have to buy the Harmony series washers, which go to 1010 spin speed. These Hydrowave washers are considered mid-line washers that can be purchased for around 375-500 depending on the model and discount...

    GE Hydrowave!

    Overloaded I have had one of the Hydrowave washers for about a year now with no problems. Mine does not make any clicking/knocking at all during the wash cycle. IMHO this guy has overloaded the machine, I don't care what he says. That was my first impression when the video started, was that...

    Maytag on CL- When was it made

    From the early 80's Looks like a set I used to own that I bought in 1983. It's amazing anyone could think they were only 3 years old.

    GE NEW washer "walks"

    I think its faked Sorry, I don't believe this video. I think it was faked, with either a phone book in the tub, or legs that weren't seated agains't the floor. He states he's had this machine since May and posted the video in December with 4 repairs on this machine from Sears? He could have had...

    New GE Hydrowave

    LOL on the lifting the lid Yeah, I think on the second day I had magnets on the lid switch and the front of this machine off to watch how it worked. There is no transmission or brake anymore. The motor reverses back and forth for agitation. For spin, it appears to me that a solenoid engages to...
