We are cleaning out a friends house and found this Hamilton Beach Steam Iron in it's origianl box. I brought it home and gave it a try. It works great. Has polished stainless steel soleplate and also has large water tank. I had no idea Hamilton Beach made irons this good. It works almost as good...

Nu Wave Oven Lawrence, It's very easy to clean. The top comes off. That is the part that has the heating element and fan. Nothing to clean on that part. It has a tray in the bottom and shelves but I have found they clean up very easy. I have even cooked bacon and hambergers and you don't have...

Nu Wave Oven I have one. It does a pretty good job. I use it for cooking lunch for myself. It is easy to clean and I checked the temperature settings with an oven thermometer and it was right on the money. I don't see how you could really compare it with a pressure cooker. It is two different...

Rid-Jid Wonderland No, I had the stool for over 25 years. I bought a 3 tier yellow cart and step stool all at the same time. I am going out today and try and find a good pad and cover for the board. I had been using one of those cheap ironing boards with the non-stick cover and sponge padding...

I had one of these and left it when I moved. I found this one today at Goodwill for $4.99. I was one happy customer! Now i can sit down and Iron again! Of course using my grandmother's Hoover Steam iron with the stainless soleplate. This is ironing heaven!

Just got back from "The Home Depot". Has anyone seen the brand new Maytag Centennial top load washer with the glass window in the lid? It looks like the windows that we saw in the washers of the 50's. This is NOT the Bravos but the regular top load Maytags. The model #mvwc700v. It has a higher...

Bendix Thanks for the information. I was very young but I still remember how it sounded and riding by bike through the water when it drained on the basement floor. It seems like it set on a square of cement that was raised from the floor but I could be wrong. Grandmother's was square and mom's...

A friend called today and wanted to know what would be a good choice for a portable dishwasher? I told him we had a top of the line Whirlpool stainless that has only been used 2-3 times since we built this house. I know nothing about dishwashers but I told him I know some guys who would have...

I was cleaning some things yesterday and ran across the book that came with my parents Bendix washer. It had the installation date as 1948. I remember the story that my father bought it just before I was born. What's the story with the Bendix's? I remember my mom and grandmother both had the...

Never the likes of this Maytag I don't know if it's the best but I used my 806 Maytag pair for 33 years before I moved and they are still going at the old house. Almost no repairs in 33 years. New door switch and element for the dryer and one repair for the washer but I don't remember what it...

Frigidaire Microwave If you would like I will take a picture the next time I am at the house. I kept my grandmother's Frigidaire microwave that is very similar. It's sitting in my garage. I think it is a couple of years newer but very similar to mine. Funny thing is that the new Stainless Steel...

Frigidaire Microwave That sounds like the one I left at my last house. It's still being used every day.I bought it about 1985. It had two controls and came with a big book of instructions. Mine said it was made by Frigidaire in Dayton Ohio. It has a charcoal finish (not woodtone) and is VERY...

We had an old dirty stained canvas gym bag that had coffee,coke and who knows what else what else spilled in it and it had been thrown in the back of the truck every day used to carry gym clothes. Tom was going to just throw it away and I was loading the machine with dirty gym clothes so I...

Neptune questions This is what I am getting from the posts: (1) smaller loads clean better (2) don't use the max extract (3) stay away from coconut oil base cleaners I have never used the max exract and when I had delicate loads that were very dirty I used the presoak. I also have used only...

Neptune Questions Thanks for the info. I am encouraged that yours was 8 years old. I grew up coming home to the familiar sound of the Frigidaire thumping away. I have noticed it takes the Neptune a little longer to start with the small loads, so maybe full loads work better in the front load...

After using my Maytag 806 washer and dryer for many years (33 years to be exact) I was used to throwing in a load any time there were dirty clothes around. My question is now that I have been "converted" by you guys to the front load Neptune washer and dryer is it easier on the machine to do...

Mamma Mia Sometimes you just have to get over yourself and have fun. This was a fun movie. We went yesterday and are going back again on Sunday. It was just fun. No it's not perfect just fun. You come out of the movie feeling happy.

My old Frigidaire dies Patrick, Thanks for the picture. Mine had handles just like yours except it was a bottom freezr. To late . They brought the new one yesterday and took mine. I felt it could have been fixed because it was still working,just not cooling like it should be. Everybody today...

My ex called last night and said my old Frigidaire was not cooling correctly. I just loved that Frigidaire. So much chrome! It was a bottom freezer. It matched my Frigidaire Custom Imperial stove. I left them at the old house. The stove is still working perfecly. It has the heat minder and speed...
