Speed Queen is not available in Canada and the equivalent Huebsch is not available where we live so not an option. The Maytag front loader was my first choice but the detergent dispenser was made of cheap plastic...the tab to remove it from the machine broke when I pressed on it on the display...

She did not like the Amana top loader (which was the best of the top loaders) so a front loader was the only option and unfortunately all front loaders are full of electronics so there was not much choice.

We went washer shopping this afternoon and she ended up getting the Electrolux EFLS527UTT which is in Titanium from BestBuy. For some reason Bestbuy does not carry the 527 in white however both the 427 and 627 are available in white from them. I think she got a good price. It was priced at...

LOL @ Petek.....she washes her bedding weekly so that's 1 load, then she does a load of towels plus a load of colours and possibly whites. Roper is not available in Canada. I'll check if Amana is available here. We have limited stores for appliances - Best Buy, Home Depot, Leon's, The...

She does not want to buy used and she is not against spending a little more for quality for something that will last. She is 66 years old. I am thinking that she should get a machine with an internal heater even though her water is hot as the water will cool with long cycle times. I'm in...

Her hot water is very very hot and the washing machine is located about 4 feet from the water heater. She does not want or need a machine with steam...just something that is going to be reliable and relatively easy to use. Like I said, she is very electronically challenged...she has trouble...

A friend of mine just had her top loader die on her this morning. It is more than 20 years old (she doesn't even remember the brand but definitely not Maytag) so she is looking for a replacement. She is electronically challenged so the controls needs to be easy to use. I'm thinking she should...

I used dishwasher detergent and ran the pot through a brew cycle. Wow, it worked great! The water was disgustingly dirty afterwards...and I thought the pot was clean! Will see tomorrow if I notice a difference in the coffee taste. Gary

THanks everyone for the responses. I would never have thought to use dishwasher detergent or Oxy-clean....I will give it a try. I did make a pot of coffee this morning...turned out not too bad. I used 8 cups water and 4 tbsps. coffee. It took about 15 min. to perc. I didn't know that paper...

Thank you for the info! I'm going to try it tomorrow morning.

I received this percolator from my bf today. Can anyone tell me what year it would have been made? Is the basket supposed to have a top? How much coffee should I use per cup of coffee? Thanks Gary

Actually if you look at the connector on the end of the hose...it is not for a Rainbow.

My grandmother had a wringer washer...I don't know what make it was. It had 4 legs but definitely not a Maytag. There was no electric pump...it drained by gravity. She did not have a clothes dryer. Then when my mom got her Maytag automatic washer in the mid 60s, she gave her wringer washer...

Ralph, If you look closely at the pic, you can see the circular (or more rectangular) shaped driveway...there are trees running alongside. Gary

I am preparing Christmas dinner for 10 people but fortunately the guests are also bringing some of the items. Me: turkey stuffing perogies cabbage rolls dinner rolls/pumpernickel bread pickles/olives wine Guests: scalloped potatoes turnip carrots coleslaw cranberry sauce variety of baked...

I have a USB stick that has that same sticky rubber coating. I wish I knew how to get rid of the stickiness. Gary

I had a KitchenAid auto lower/raise toaster....it was the worst toaster I have ever had. It took a long time to toast (if you can call it that). The toast came out very unevenly toasted and was hard as a rock. Gary

That's the same mixer that my mom had when I was growing up. Gary

If the hose fits into the exhaust port then yes it can blow.

The notch allows for airflow. If there was no notch, and the end of the crevice tool sealed tight to the surface....there would be no air flow and consequently no suction.
