    This song is driving me INSANE.

    Speaking of tunes.. The Sound of Silence.. I'm a little slow on the uptake and never a fan of remakes, however, I'm positively obsessed with this one.

    What do people think of the new Persil available in USA?

    Same here.. But eBay & Amazon carry different flavors. Some European, universal, USA, etc.

    Newever machines designed to give better results when less water used?

    Duvet Covers.. Can eliminate the need of having to wash large comforters (minus the infrequent coffee spill or Freddy's friendly dog pee;) I can wash a king size cotton quilt in my TL just fine, an oversized down comforter, or the ones stuffed with polyester fibers, not so much. But as a rule...

    Newever machines designed to give better results when less water used?

    Professional Reviews Don't represent 'facts,' they represent opinions based on selective facts. I've owned both and factually speaking, MY laundry gets much cleaner, much quicker in a TL with an agitator. Cost effectiveness is also subjective. While newer FL models may use less water and...

    What do people think of the new Persil available in USA?

    TSP Yes, TSP is what I meant. It was indeed harsh on clothing but reducing the amount mitigated the negative effect of eating through clothing. I don't know about precipitate, but again TSP isn't something I've frequently used or even used recently, for that matter. I just remember it making my...

    What do people think of the new Persil available in USA?

    Oxy vs Bleach vs Powder vs Liquid etc etc Laundress, to answer your Q above:  I guess I've never had good results with any 'oxy' type of product. Perhaps it's because I've been using a crappy washing machine for so long, or perhaps it's user error, but oxy has never given me good results, even...

    Is it okay to use bleach with the Persil Pearls or does it contain an oxy like ingredient?

    Maytag Automatic won't drain

    Just had a similar problem with my A712 although I couldn't get it to drain AT ALL. Had to replace the pump. The pump itself is only $70 but I'm not the least bit mechanical so I got hosed in labor costs. My washer also sat unused for a period of time. Since yours drains in a specific cycle you...

    Maytag A712 - Calling all experts! Help w/ troubleshooting

    Thank you d-jones. There was indeed a screw hidden on the side of the agitator underneath where the lint filter sits. Unscrewed it and lifted it off with ease. There was no rubber anything to be found. Just the steel post. Should I order a stop ring or does it matter? Thanks again.

    Maytag A712 - Calling all experts! Help w/ troubleshooting

    Hi guys, another Q. How do I remove the agitator? There's a tiny hole on the wide part of the base of the agitator but I can't imagine a screw being down in it? And I don't see a screw inside the agitator after I remove the fabric softener. Thoughts? Thank you!

    Maytag A712 - Calling all experts! Help w/ troubleshooting

    Agree. Probably won't take 15-25 minutes... It's a perk of being female. I know I'm getting hosed but not in a position to do anything about it.

    Maytag A712 - Calling all experts! Help w/ troubleshooting

    Well I called an appliance repair place. It is the drain pump. Diagnostic, repair & taxes comes to a prickly $282. He said timer looked fine & belts were in good shape, etc, etc, so I guess I'll bite the bullet & pay $200+ for labor on a $70 part. Still yet, no regrets. I've been wanting this...

    Maytag A712 - Calling all experts! Help w/ troubleshooting

    Thank you so much for taking the time to answer. You're right, it sat for about six months in someone's garage. Can you tell me where I can locate the pump / pump pulley? Thank you again.

    Why did Maytag eliminate the Dependable Care Line?

    I know this is an old thread but it's in keeping with the DC line so I figured I'd revive it :). Can anyone tell me anything at all about this model? Was it one of the first or last DC's produced? How does it measure against the 'DC Plus' model? Would love any insight or assistance. A brochure...
