Most Maddening Washer Commerical

[panasonicvac]

Those are commercial models. Likely from clueless people who doesn't know how to do laundry properly. That can happen to any washer really, even seen a video of a DD that failed from abuse. I'm convinced that as long as you take care of them, they'd last longer than you'd think like mine or John's.

Doesn't really matter which setting I'd use on my Kenmore. That fact of the matter is I've simply used better and that's why I mentioned I would've rather replaced our old FF with a front loader. Which technically, that FF was originally in our house and the washer we have now is a front loader. At one point, I thought top loaders were the way to go especially from using my Kenmore. But, I later found out that my front loader outcleans my Kenmore along with other things that I really do appreciate about front loaders.

I've seen people in laundomats stuffing as much as they could into washers, likely thinking it'll save them money for not using a 2nd machine. - typical abuse.
They're uneducated in proper loading techniques.

SpeedQueen knew this, that's why their machines held up better.

I go volunteer at a place once a week to do laundry and they have Speed Queen machines that are branded as Unimac. I'm sure no doubt commercial machines like those last longer, we still have to do laundry properly. For example we can only load in 15 towels per washer, otherwise they wouldn't clean as well or cause problems to the washers. And about once a year or so, I also go down to my mom's work to help her out with laundry as well. Like the Unimac machines, there's also a certain amount that goes into this old Milnor. As a result, it has lasted for a VERY long time.

I've been to my nearby laundomat in order to wash/freshen up my bed comforter.
Because it's obviously too much for my Maytag to deal with properly.
The laundromat has those big front-load machines as well.

While at the laundromat, I've seen numerous female customers packing those machines with laundry to the point of having to push firmly on the door to close it.
And tossing in a big cup of detergent meant for several loads!
I just shake my head and think "what morons!"
These women clearly are from other countries, and having different cultures and education than us Americans.
It's no wonder that they stink when I get near them - their clothes are dirty.

Same here. I've even seen people use cold as well.

And you'll also see college dudes and females mix their colors and every single thing into a single load and run it oncold.

That makes absolutely no sense.
It must be part of the brainwashing of society.

The things you learn in college, eh?
Then they become politicians and washing machine designers.

This world is nuts!

And then you have worse than the model T. The hydrowave and now the Haier built GE's!

They use cold on everything.

They use cold on everything.

They've been bitten by the "Save America" and "Save Energy" bug propoganda.
Common Sense?.... what's that?
Hold on!, let me "download the app!"

I don't need a stupid app. and they've been trained to shove everything into a single load with just a measly tablespoon of soap.

I don't knock college, but they didn't read printed user manuals so they are online for easy access but they still don't read them.
My stepson has a degree in software engineering and he's doing very well.
The future belongs to those who smell it coming.

Eh....
College has evolved into just another greedy organization for the elites to gain from.
Sure, you might learn things there, if you're lucky.
But those having to pay back tuition fees for a good part of their future lives, while working at a snack-shack waiting tables.... to me is stupid.
Some of my schoolmates bought into that college stuff, and I don't remember one that told me it was worth the time, effort, and cost.

I'm one of those that believe in educating myself by reading, exploring my own interests.
I used 12 years of public schooling to give me the roots to further myself to go out and get a job, make money, enjoy life.
I took shop classes, all types, and focused on the electronics field.
Need I say more?

I already have 2 college degrees under my belt, but I don't believe it means anything.

On the contrary, it means something to the college institutions, they thank you for funding their bank accounts.

Lmao. No. You don’t.

 

[johnb300m]

I’m pretty sure it depends on what people go to college for. I don’t think I want a doctor that didn’t go to medical school. I don’t think I want to drive a car demented by people who didn’t learn statics, dynamics, or materials.
I don’t think any of you want my smoke alarms or jet engines or water filtration systems if I didn’t learn about proper design, materials, proper equations for various things.
Yes there’s lots of on the job learning (not training, they ended years ago) but college for the technical backgrounds, really teaches you how to think about problem solving, design of experiments, presentation skills, which are important to provide updates on your work. And to share and convince others and management of your ideas, data etc.

Unfortunately higher education is less and less accessible. As well as less valued by more and more companies who think they can replace everyone with A1.

Why not? Tell that to chetlaham.

I will give them that.
