Whirlpool SA ACE XL. New, LARGE capacity twin-tub washer with heater. In the old days, "Semi-automatic washer" meant you connected both hot and cold to a "Y" connection and connected the machine to a faucet for water. Many a city-slicker apartment dweller used this set-up. Therefore the water...

How do you keep warm? My current residence is an apartment rental in a building that was constructed in 1946. There is a central one-pipe steam heating system that is fired with natural gas. Within the apartments are recessed "radiator" enclosures with finned convectors. As with most...

. LOW-TECH solutions to a low-tech problem. K-CUPS? PISSSSSHHHHHHHAWWWWW. Too much money for equipment that takes up counter-space, pushes water through plastic and generates "cold" coffee. The cost of those disposable K-cups is absurd! Here is the low-tech way to do this. I actually...

Time to investigate and play with new LG (brand) commercial washer. Hung curtains for a friend two years ago. Never washed. So I hauled my @$$ over there to do so. (and of course try the new front-load washers that replaced the top-loaders). And here begin my observations of these new...
