    Samsung 240 volt Vented Combo!

    Higher final spin speeds in washing machines just makes sense it not only saves energy. The clothes get rinsed better because more of the soapy dirty water is spun out and your own time is saved because the clothes dry a lot faster. Higher RPMs do not have any measurable effect on the bearings...

    Inglis TO-41001 Commercial Belt Drive Rebuild -A few questions-

    Fantastic job Landon, yes, indeed it looks like a brand new machine, these were fairly rugged machines. I know where they’re still a pair of these working without having been rebuilt in a small three unit apartment building. The lid was hinged back instead of sideways because in a commercial...

    When did Maytag start to go bad?

    Maytag load sensor agitator with orbital transmission is a superior washing action to the old power fin agitator with the Pittman transmission. Now, if they had just improved the suspension and added three more springs, gotten rid of the off-balance switch, put larger holes in the wash basket...

    Burgers and Fries

    Reply number 20, there’s nothing healthy about fried foods, red meat or cooking in beef tallow granite a little bit of any of these things won’t kill you, but it doesn’t look like a very good diet. It’s also very hard on the planet. Have you ever looked at the studies of what happens to your...

    WP Dishwasher Production - Findlay OH - 16mm Film

    That’s probably around 1969 or 70, it’s still the largest dishwasher factory in the world turning out all the KitchenAid Maytag whirlpool and a few other name dishwashers. They probably lost a lot of business when Sears went under, but it seems they’re still doing quite well, definitely still...

    Burgers and Fries

    Deep frying foods at home, etc. Like Eddie I think we deep fry something maybe once a year maybe twice very rarely for a lot of the same reasons, others have stated. If I do it, I do it out in the outdoor kitchen. I can’t stand the smell in the house. I also use an electric deep fryer with a...

    MDE5500AYW - Maytag Neptune Dryer - Part info needed

    Reply number six none of those parts need replacing they just need to be removed and cleaned and re-lubricated. Replacing those parts with imitation parts lead to a dryer that has more problems much sooner than just servicing what is there, replace the belt if it shows signs of wear or...

    How Much Fill Timer Before Agitation?

    No whirlpool automatic washer or combination washer dryer ever had time Phil controlling the water level in the machine. Just because the timer might be running for the first increment of fill or two that doesn’t mean it’s a time fill machine in any way shape or form. The great thing is modern...

    MDE5500AYW - Maytag Neptune Dryer - Part info needed

    What do rollers or an idler pulley with build up? Look like I have never seen this in my career, these items will wear down, but I’ve never seen them build up. If they get some sort of buildup on them, they could easily be cleaned but these parts are not items that normally need replacement in...

    Agitator fins keep breaking on Speedqueen top loader.

    To remove the agitator in a modern Speed Queen top load washer you just pull it up. It takes a lot of force be careful when it breaks loose that you don’t hit yourself in the face or head with it. It doesn’t hurt to fill the tub halfway with hot water and let it sit for 15 minutes drain the...

    MDE5500AYW - Maytag Neptune Dryer - Part info needed

    That Amazon kit looks like it would be the correct thing for the dryer models listed. If you were to buy this Amazon kit and install it in a Maytag dryer you’d be lucky if the machine lasted a year. All of those parts are junk. A dryer would never need all of those parts. I don’t replace a...

    1980s Whirlpool Imperial Seventy - Oil on floor

    Hi Andy, you did a fantastic job rebuilding this machine, reach out anytime you wanna do something like this I have so many parts for these machines that will never be used.
