Being a messy eater with an Italian ex, I've had a lot of experience with this. Wash TEMPERATURE is by far the single largest factor. The hotter, the better. I pre-treated the stain with my regular detergent and let it sit for a half hour or so before washing. Use the longest cycle. A...

I'd fix it up and either keep it myself or find it a good where it'd be appreciated and lovingly used. I'd do that in partial atonement for putting a Flair out for the trash. I had no idea of its value at the time. However, it went to a good home. Within 30 seconds of turning our backs on it...

Yes, that clears it up a bit. I should spend more time trying to figure out the groupings..... Yes, the vocab wasn't the problem. Waermepumpen is practically English and trock(n)- has/had an English cognate that slips my mind. Then you can go the other way which is way more complicated to...

Yes, thanks for the pics...

Very nice collection! And congrats on your divorce. Been there, done that. Best of luck to you as you get your machines in order.

Some people have too much time on their hands...

Sloppy labelling or my bad German? # 1 & 2 Yes, confusing! Ok, in the screenshot: The left hand side shows Waschenmachinen and Trocknen under the heading of Gewerbe. Ok, fine. That re-teaches me the forgotten word 'Gewerbe' Coolness abounds. But when I look to the right hand side I see 3...

I'll be looking over my own cell plan as well. Now that I'm working mostly from home with wifi I don't use nearly the data I used to. With T-Mobile taking over Sprint, that leaves 3 physical nationwide cell networks in the US: Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile. *ALL* cell phone service providers use...

Glad you're both ok. I had a similar experience several years ago, but it was a van, not a Mack truck!!! As with you, mine got totalled.   I wish you the best of luck with the Mazda.

"5 back surgeries makes it tough to get that low." "The electric WP 29" dryers are much hotter on the bottom than the gas ones, When we move them to service you often see floor damage under the left rear corner where the heater is." A couple of questions to maybe make a general "rule of...

I've never used a bidet. Given the current isolation/lockdown I wonder if I'd ever leave the bathroom. Another practical problem would be the fact that many/most bathrooms in the US don't have space to put one if one wanted to renovate.

Which is worse? Washing everything in cold, definitely. A lot of dirt and stains, particularly oil-based ones simply won't dissolve/release in cold water. Pre-Corona I used to wash coloured items in warm. Now? EVERYTHING is washed in hot and dried on the highest setting. I've yet to have a...

Years ago I helped a friend in a janitorial business. One Saturday I put all the mop heads into the HD machine at the local laundromat. I added A ridiculous amount of bleach. The machine didn't like my bills so I went across the street to change them. I came back to find some guy had pulled the...

I have a strange feeling Appropriate costume ------> just the apron.

#9 Jeans go on regular cycle for me as well. Now everything is on "hot" in the Huebsh FL's I use. I haven't had anything shrink or fade yet. Of course that may well be because today's "hot" is the "warm" of yesteryear. There's a thread here somewhere about water temps needing to be at...

Will Penn. Rep Brian Sims be there? If you don't know who he is......

#2 i agree! This insistence on having the oven practically on the floor is insane. I'd love a kitchen not designed for a Hobbit......

I have Panasonic ER224S wet/dry. I bought it because I wanted a model that was battery operated and had one guard that stayed on and didn't need to be changed. I like it for everything except edging my moustache. However, It's still new enough that the moustache problem might be user error ;-)

A dryer being small is not a reason for it to be slow. I'd start with the simplest stuff first. No need for a new dryer if there's a simple problem easily and cheaply remedied. - Are the filters clean? Check the operating manual; there may be more than one. - Is the dryer vented? If so, clean...

Long, strong spray rinses when there's enough water being pumped out it sounds almost like the tub is being drained.
