    Speed Queen Transmission?

    I have a Speed Queen top load washer. Purchased in 2012 and it has worked very well. On Saturday, the washer was working fine, but Sunday it wouldn’t spin. The agitation is fine during wash cycle, but when the timer advances to spin/drain it just hums. It will not spin water out. I have moved...

    Speed Queen Sounds?

    I have uploaded a video of my Speed Queen. I am wondering if it is working properly because the tub seems to be tilted toward the front and it’s making a clicking sound. I have had a technicaan come out and he determined everything was good. I even asked about putting a a new belt on and he said...

    Speed Queen Noise

    I would like to start by saying that we Love our Speed Queen Laundry Pair. We have had them since 2011 and they work like a dream. However, lately the washer has begun to have a squeaking noise while it agitates. I would just like to know what has caused it and what I can do to fix it? I have...

    Magnalite Wagnerware Cookware

    Does anyone have a good method of cleaning this type of cookware? We have an old 4qt. roaster that's quite dirty on the inside. I have used Bar Keepers Friend and a soft sponge, but the pan still has some brown burned spots that won't budge. I read on line that someone put theirs through a...

    What smells like Downy?

    The answer: GAIN Gain Sweet Sizzle that is. We tried this and it honestly has that 1990's Downy April Fresh Smell when used in moderate dosages. I could see how it could be a little too strong if too much is used. I think there are three distinct Downy April Fresh smells. First, the...

    Mixmaster

    I found this at a thrift store today for $4.00. It works and is very quiet. I don't think the bowl is correct and it is missing the beaters, but I felt I just couldn't leave it for that price. It is a model 11. What kind of beaters did it have and where is the best place to find them? If...

    Washer/Dryer Decisions

    Ok, after 4 years our GE Front Loader was finally deemed too costly to fix by the repairman after 6 service calls. I really want a good, dependable top loader that will last. I really like vintage but don't know if they should be daily drivers for a family of 4. The used appliance stores around...

    BOSCH Dishwasher

    Hello guys. I have a Bosch SHU53 that isn't working properly. It will not cycle off and the display window says 2H. I had a repairman out today, and he showed me to depress the scrub and delicate buttons together to reset it. When he did it, the dishwasher worked fine. I paid him his...

    Detergents

    Our Wal-Mart has started carrying a bag of detergent called Ariel. Anyone know anything about this? Does it clean well? Smell nice? Tim

    Vintage Downy

    During the Summer I miss the vintage scent of Downy from the 70's and 80's. The new April Fresh doesn't remind me of my childhood at all. Are there any fragrances out there that smell like vintage Downy? I have found a Glade Carpet Powder that slightly has that scent, but nothing else has...

    GE Nautilus

    We had a glass break in the dishwasher Friday night. I thought I had gotten all the little pieces out, but the pump has started making a noise. Is there any way to get the glass out, or has it bitten the dust? The machine washes and dries fine, but the noise is little unnerving---like...

    Front Loader Experts

    We have a GE front loader that we bought 3 years ago. It has developed a "squeeking" sound when it washes and slow spins. It also is taking longer to complete a load because it will respin 2 or three times trying to balance the load. I had a repairman out yesterday because I purchased the...

    Free Dishwasher

    Someone has given us a Bosch dishwasher to replace our GE Nautilus. The Bosch has been sitting in a basement for about two years since a kitchen redmodel. I have never installed a dishwasher. Should I be concerned about dry seals or any other problems with a dishwasher sitting this long. It...

    Washing Whites in a Front Loading Machine

    What is the secret of getting whites really clean and bright in a FL machine? I have a new GE set. They work great, but lack the heater to boost the temperature. I am now using liquid Tide HE and 1/3 cup of Clorox bleach, the longest wash time and the hottest water possible. The whites are just...

    Loading a Front Loader?

    I have a GE FL set that I bought in July. What is the best way to load a FL to keep it from getting off balance? I've tried putting big things in first and small things in first, but there are still times that it gets of balance. Is this just normal for a FL and something I'll just have to get...

    New GE's

    I did it today. Bought new GE front loaders that is. They will be delivered tomorrow. I got the set for $1550 with a full 5 year warranty. I hope they will be everything I think they will be. We chose them over the Whirlpool Cabrio because of price mainly, but we have always wanted front...

    Maytag Fabrimatic

    I am contemplating trading in my 1999 Kenmore Washer and 1996 GE dryer for a matching set called a Maytag Fabrimatic. It is not the center dial Maytag, but the tub and agitator look very similar. I can get these for $225 delivered and set up and taking my old ones away on a trade. Does this...

    My Maytag Frig

    I have a 4 year old Maytag side by side refrigerator with ice and filtered water in the door. The auger that drives the ice out through the door has started making an awful buzzing sound when it runs. It still works ok, but the noise lets me know something isn't right. Does anyone have any ideas...

    Dryer?

    I remember as a child my great aunt had a dryer that had a round lint filter that fit inside the door. I can't remember the brand. Would it have been Speed Queen? Or were there others that used this type filter? Tim
