Hi All, I have been watching Knots Landing on Plex and noticed that most of the kitchen appliances are from GE. But the dishwashers all seem to be from Magic Chef from what I see. The Kenmore washer that Karen and Sid have are Kenmore picture window models which at the beginning are coppertone...

Hi All, I just saw this tidbit and thought it would be nice to share about washer and dryer standards that are going to change again. Doug https://grist.org/energy/washers-and-dryers-are-about-to-get-a-whole-lot-more-efficient/

Can someone tell me why this agitator in this GE washer is one of the worst I have seen in washing a load of clothes. This thing has no ability to turn over a load of clothes at all. All it does is swish them back and forth, rollover is a joke. The machine is claimed to be a V16 which isn't...

Hi All, I need to clean up and make some space so I have a few agitators for sale each $20.00 + shipping costs. I don't need these items anymore so they are ups for grabs if you need one. First come first serve basis. The agitators are as follows: Maytags, there are 2 of these, they came from...

With the issue of the dishwasher and now the vintage washer giving me a headache, we got out of the house and checked out some vintage stores in Red Bank. Well I found an item new in the box that had to come home with us. I never have seen this small GE appliance and it seems to work well. We...

I am devastated, my Whirlpool power clean dishwasher has died, The motor has kicked the bucket and now I have to look for a modern new unit. I have a backup vintage Kitchenaid dishwasher but my husband doesn't want me to put it in the kitchen, he wants a new one. I disagree, but what can you do...

Hi All, I have a question on the FilterFlo washer that I just got. It passed the water test with no leaks which is a good thing. My question is this, when I got the machine it ran in slow speed for wash and spin. I poked around by the speed solenoid and the little lever on the solenoid clicked...

I must be crazy, but I checked out an ad posted by Launderess and contacted the seller on cragslist. I went down to checkout the machine and it ran, so I decided to buy it and bring it home. Got good tips on making sure it was packed well for coming home. I spent about 2 hours cleaning it up and...

Hi All, I was running errands yesterday and happened to stop by an estate sale to see what was for sale and if there was anything vintage. Well low and behold this one item caught my eye, and its looked very clean like it was hardly used. I inquired about it and was told that the lady of the...

Just wondering as to who made these machines for Blackstone, or were they actually produced by Blackstone. I have never seen any of these machines as they were not sold in this area of NJ Doug

If I loaded my Kitchenaid dishwasher that is in today's POD it would not clean the bowls in the top rack or the bottom rack of the dishwasher. Those bowls would not get any water action from the wash arm as they are in the wrong position of the racks. They need to be turned around to face the...

I had to do a washer repair on my washer, and since I had to disconnect the hoses, I cleaned out the screens on the inlets for the water. I noticed that the water inlet valves for the whirlpool direct drive washer from 1991 have very small inlet holes for the water to enter. I am curious as to...

Just wondering, this Hotpoint washer has a solid tub yet it has a full time lint filter built in just like Whirlpool does. Yet the Hotpoint tub is solid, so does this tub fill up until it is overflowing and then continue to fill until a pressure switch is satisfied? Is it just like early...

If you have Amazon Prime you should check out this movie called Classic Kitchen Films. It's an 1 and 44 minutes and it shows a lot of the classic appliance brands from the 1950' and 1960's. Pretty Kool to watch. Doug

Now that is the Blackstone washer to find, it has everything you need for doing all sorts of wash. Totally top of the line washing, everything is adjustable for washing all fabrics. That would be my vintage washer to buy! Doug

This followed me home today when I went to the recycle center to get rid of some garden waste. At first I couldn't believe it, I bought one just like this in 1972 (Philco Space Mate 5000)and it lasted 29 years before being replaced. This unit needs a good cleaning as I have opened it up to check...

I am sure that this error was pointed out before, but if you look closely at today's ad, the bottom rack of this dishwasher has the bowls pointed outward, and not inward toward the spray action. If you tried it, you would see that it would't get those items clean. Doug

Looking at today's Picture of today, it is an ad for Kenmore washers and dryers. What I would like to know if these are Canada's Simpson Sears washers and dryers as they have the side swing doors on the dryers. I think the side swing doors were either never offered on USA Kenmores or if they...

I have seen this POD before, and never really looked at it closely, but the bottom rack of this machine has the bowls loaded incorrectly from what I see, they are facing the wrong way and the wash arm of this 1 arm machine will not clean those bowls. I am surprise that Kitchenaid at this time...

Hi All, I finally got around to trying to do a Bob Load in my spare KitchenAid KDS17 Machine. The machine works well as it is a backup machine located in my utility room. I packed it as best as I could considering it is a 1 arm machine with the overhead sprayer on the top. I did use the Full...
