I saw this ad the other day, and think it may be my chance to have a REAL Miele (the 220V version with all of the benefits that entails). If they can come up with the Easy Install Kit (voltage adapter), i may make the trip to Dallas to get these. After having the LG Steam Washer for 6 years, i...

I bought a box of German Ariel (the industrial sized box) from Amazon.com about a year or so ago. It smelled just like the UK Ariel I have used in the past, and it cleaned and whitened really well. I was very pleased with the results and loved the smell. It gave german Persil a run for the money!

<p><span style="font-size: small;"><strong><span style="color: black;">On July 5, 2006, I purchased a 2006 Honda Accord SE for my business - Silver with Charcoal Interior - 5-speed manual transmission. I really love this car! I specifically purchased the 5-speed manual transmission as I really...

I bought the washer a few months ago, and set it up in my utility room next to my LG Steam washer with matching dryer stacked on top. So far, I really like this machine. Mine has the internal heater (for sanitary cycle) which I have used only once. I'm not sure if I would want to use this as my...

Funny you should ask . . . I had a bad incident with a dark amber pyrex baking dish that I acquired from my grandmother years ago (and I assume she had for ages). It was a small square casserole dish that I used to bake a small ham last Monday night (at 275 degrees). After taking the ham...

Hello all! A couple of friends and I will be headed to London this Thursday. We will spend a couple of days in London and then head to Dublin where we will begin a driving tour of Ireland. Then at the end of next week, we will head back to London and spend a day before heading back home to...

WOW! That's in my neck of the Woods. Less than 40 minutes away. Do you think it's worth having? I've always thought about getting a Miele Rotary Iron for sheets and things. Can you do sheets on this?

I'm not a fan of Mexican softeners because of their strong scents, but I love the Mexican detergents. I love the Ariel liquid - primarily because of the scent. It cleans very well and the pleasant scent remains on the clothing for a while. I typically pair this with Downy Free so that the...

That's it! Yes sir, that is the one with Phosphates. You can tell because it says "Para venta in Latinoamerica" or "For sale in Latin America". The one without Phosphates (or Ariel USA) specifically says that it is for sale in the USA. Congrats!

I typically use the Permanent Press cycle for all loads - including my temp-boosted white loads, and find that the cycle provides enough water to get the job done beautifully, when I also select the "Water Plus" option. I used to add water through my detergent drawer until I started using...

I fell in love again last night . . . . . . with this machine! Over the past couple of years, my curiosity has been piqued by impeller-type washers. Upon a trip to Mexico in 2007 and trips to Guatemala in 2009 and early 2010, I saw many of these types of machines for sale in the local...

Oh, Craigslist . . . http://lubbock.craigslist.org/app/2038596608.html

We used to get the real thing at Wal-Mart here in West Texas and then Wal-Mart removed all Mexican detergents, including Ariel, for a while. I just saw it on the shelves the other day again at Wal-Mart, and after carefully reading the ingredients I realized that it had no phosphates. It even...

Dear OP - I am with Toggles on the stove-top boiling. I love German Persil, and I use it with STPP on whites and have BRILLIANT results in my front loader. HOWEVER, I also use white wash cloths and have the same problem with the grey spots in the middle. This is due to body washes. The...

I am apparently very rough on irons. It seems like I have to buy a new one at least once per year. The problem I have with them is that they stop getting very hot after a while. Perhpas I need to clean it? About 2 years ago I bought the Rowenta Advancer and the Rowenta Steam Generator at the...

I always wondered what the point of those lights were on the freeway on-ramps. I see them when I go to Southern California. Here in Texas, we generally use the on-ramp to accelerate. I suppose the heavy traffic flow and the overburdened freeway system in California requires the metering lights...

I considered that, but I am still using the same container of Cascade Action Packs that I've had for months now. I also use Jet Dry as the rinse agent. We're not just talking white spots here. While there were some of those, the pan turned a very dark grey and only after 30 minutes of...

Funny that you mention this . . . I actually logged in this evening to ask a question about aluminum and SS. I just purchased a new dishwasher (Maytag JetClean Plus Tall Tub - Model # MDBH979AWW). I ordered it just before Thanksgiving and got a GREAT deal on it. While I really love this...

P&G Professional Ariel from Germany - Jon - Is this the same formulation that they offer in the UK? I have wanted to try it for ages, and I can purchase a 10KG box of the German variant, but wanted to see if it was the same before I dropped the cash on it!

Thank you, Robert, for your time and dedication to this site. I have been a member here since 2005 and I have thoroughly enjoyed this site, and most of the content here. I fondly remember the "old days" when there was more fellowship and less bickering, and I believe that is it possible to...
