    Facebook will not let me in

    Many years ago, I did have an account but cancelled it under a different e/mail address I no longer use. I tried to set up a new account in the address I use now since every business now I would want to contact is only on there and no .com profile. Facebook says I am illegally duplicating an...

    Maytag 511 washer developed strange noise

    My 40 year old Maytag 511 has started making a squeeling noise only when the spin/drain engages after wash and rinse. But once it ramps up it runs normally. Is this something to be concerned about?

    Forcing Auto Pay and Paperless statements by companies

    I have a neighbor who just turned 96 and her satellite provider now will require her to get paperless statements and auto pay or get charged extra for their bill. Obviously, she is not computer literate and still uses a landline. I think it is totally unfair that she should pay extra because...

    My old Maytag wringer

    After figuring out it was more than I wanted to do to fix it I decided I would get rid of it to someone that appreciated it because it was still in beautiful shape. I saw a posting on Craigslist wanting old Maytag wringers. I responded and contacted the person that placed the ad. He said he was...

    Internet Security Warning

    For the past couple of weeks a red screen takes over my computer with this warning wanting me to call Microsoft Support at a number different from Microsoft's. Microsoft confirmed it was a scam and wanted me to buy a yearly subscription for them to come into my computer remotely and fix it, but...

    USPS Informed Delivery

    After going thru numerous hoops to finally sign up for it, I finally got it to work. Since my mailbox is a 1/2 mile trip from the house, I thought this would save me from a wasted trip to find nothing in the box. In the beginning, I was getting an e/mail with the scanned mail in the morning and...

    I finally found a REAL Maytag repairman

    My very first post here was to my LA511 has a rat a tat sound. Several members welcomed me, gave me the part number I need and I thought I'll get to it. The last load I did in it made so much noise that I said this is enough. I did a local search and low and behold, the grandson of the dealer I...

    Is my Maytag wringer toast?

    I finally got the laundry sink and plumbing all hooked up in my shed. Yesterday I got Gram's old Maytag out of the basement and into the shed. 3 or 4 years ago I used it and it ran fine. I plugged it in and the motor just buzzed and kept tripping the breaker. I thought because I had to put it on...

    Consumer Svs.- The new Rachael scam

    For over 4 years now I have been getting these annoying calls on a daily basis, all from different numbers throughout the country. For a while, my name and number was showing on my caller id but now they are all Consumer Svs. I have contacted the FCC and they say there is nothing they can do to...

    St. Patty's Day Corned Beef

    I have been making this for many years and always goes over very well. Instead of boiling it in a pot, I put it in a large roaster, season and spice to your preference, add all the vegs and use some seltzer water instead of regular water to bring it up about an inch or so. Put into a 275 degree...

    CBS News tonight

    The last segment was Steve Hartman's On The Road and they visited a museum dedicated to cleaning. It was quite interesting seeing the old products from vacs to washboards and the kids seemed to get quite involved. Did any of you see it too?

    New member, just found this site

    Hi everyone, Just happened upon this site quite by accident when looking for a fix for my 1984 LA 511 Maytag washer. Never imagined there were others that loved laundry as much as me. But I have a matching pair, bought brand new and so far have been trouble free, BUT now the washer has developed...
