We religiously scrape our dishes, and clean the dishwasher filter. Despite this, our last dishwasher constantly re-deposited tiny bits of vegetable matter on dishes (especially things like broccoli florets, microscopic kale sprinkles, and teeny tiny red pepper skins). Even if I cleaned the filter every wash, I could only get clean dishes by pre-rinsing until they were 95% clean. Our old 15yo dishwasher before that never had this issue (a tale as old as time).

Would a powerful hard food grinder fix this issue?

I don't care about noise level, bottle sprayers, cycle length, or metal tub. My "nice to have" list would be a leak sensor, auto-open for drying, and a delay-start option - but I would forsake all of that if it could just handle VEGETABLE BITS.

Not sure what to do about this. Stove seems to work ok otherwise, but it's difficult to tell whether it's on medium, high, etc.

Forgive me if this has been previously addressed! We are renovating a house and I want what I surprised my parents with 30 years ago. It was on sale for 900 bucks at the Sears at the local mall (sweet memories!) It was wide and electric and had two ovens next to each other. One was regular size and the other was more narrow (could easily fit a 9x13 pan) but it was a full fledged oven, not a warming oven. The top had four burners with a permanent griddle in the middle. The griddle had to be 12 inches wide and stretched all the way back to the controls. Where can I find something like this now? Thank you!!!

It's not blinking so not a water pressure issue I think, but it's constantly on. Is that supposed to happen because I've seen some posts on google saying it shouldn't?

Our Frigidaire quit and walked out last night!

Looking for recommendations for a replacement. If you have loved your free standing range (between $600-$1300) and want to shout it to the Reddit verse, I welcome your insight! If you hated something that was well rated, feel free to add that too!

This is a real picture btw! 😂

I am hoping the community can help with figuring out how to best replace this oven. It's ancient and involves an electric stovetop and an oven that sits *above* the cooktop which features a pull out vent for the stove. Below the stovetop is cabinet space, which I don't want to lose as there is very limited storage space in this little kitchen. I have never seen this setup before elsewhere as most setups have a microwave where this unit's oven sits.

Is there anything y'all know of that would work well to replace both stovetop and oven?

Brand new. Hooked up hose, but it still just fills the reservoir and doesn’t drain.

My house heater broke down 3 month ago and it's taking time for me to save money for a repair/replacement. For now, I bought a Pelonis Turbo Fan Heater PSH 700 that I'm using for my bedroom. I'm reading the manual and although it mentions placing the heater in a flat low level surface floor, it doesn't mention if it's safe to place it on a carpet floor. My whole bedroom floor is carpeted. Do I need to place it on some hard surface for better use?

Hey everyone, can some one tell me why my dishwasher is leaking from here? And if I can fix it or I should call someone.

Thanks!

It appears that my condenser fan on my Whirlpool refrigerator is rubbing against the housing and creating an extremely loud helicopter noise. Does the whole motor need to be replaced? There's a lot of play in the part the metal fan connects onto. It's a garage refrigerator, that's why it's so gross, FYI.

A warning for anyone in the UK choosing an appliance, especially LG.

Our LG dishwasher (£999 list price) failed at 26 months with a dead circulation pump. LG offers a fixed-price out-of-warranty repair for £175, parts and labour included, which we paid. LG passed the job to its UK contractor, Pacifica.

What happened:

• Visit 1: about five minutes. Fault confirmed, no repair.
• Visit 2: the engineer brought the new pump but hadn’t been given the roughly two hours needed to fit it. He left it with us, and it’s still sitting on our shelf.
• Visit 3: cancelled the same morning for “parts delayed”, with the part already in our house.
• Visit 4: the arrival window slid through the afternoon, then the visit was cancelled just before 5pm.

Pacifica then told us the engineer had attended and we were out. Our CCTV shows nobody came, and the engineer told us himself he never made it because he ran out of time. Their case manager later wrote that the part had been “returned and reordered”. It’s on our shelf. Their answer to all of this was another visit two weeks later. Six weeks after paying, we still have no dishwasher and have asked LG for our money back.

The engineer was the most honest person in the whole process. The problem is how Pacifica schedules longer jobs and handles complaints. Pacifica also repairs for many other brands and retailers, so you can end up with them without ever choosing them.

The lesson: before you buy, find out who actually services that brand where you live. Some manufacturers use their own engineers; others hand repairs to a national contractor, and when a job doesn’t fit the contractor’s schedule, you’re stuck with nobody accountable.

Happy to answer questions.

Can I run a few loads with this crack on the bottom of the agitator?

does anyone know what these are used for? they came in a pack of 4 with our new fridge and each have double sided sticky tape on them

Hello,

Brand new washing machine got some weird noises while draining water out. Filter is clean.

New fridge arrived today. Was inspecting the stands so to tilted it backwards and i noticed this on the underneath of it!!

Bottom material is clearly cracked and theres some dry residue around it - does it look like something has leaked? Or maybe something was stuck on it and tried to be ripped off.

The fridge is still standing on the polystyrene it came in from the box so don't think its caused from me moving it.

More info: model hotpoint hpk 26362 xp5uk. Its a fridge freezer so the bottom is actually the freezer compartment.

Suggest some best washing machines under 30k

Samsung 9kg

And

Ifb 8 kg

Which is better

Disadvantages of both product's

I live in Ukraine and during Fall and Winter we have electricity shutdowns. Usually we have a schedule like 4h - off, 2h - on.

The problem is that when there is no electricity the temperature drops and when the electricity appeats the fridge starts to beep and keeps making noise until it hits the temperature needed. It can happen multiple times a day and is very annoying when it happens at night.

Is there any way to completely turn off the alarm sound? I read the user manual but haven't found any solution.

Any ideas what might have caused this new issue? He is exhausted from having taken it apart to do the drain pump replacement, and now this has come up.

I've always been the person who turns the heat down before leaving the house. Nobody's home, so why keep it warm? We have a costway mini split in the living room, and that worked fine for most of the winter. I'd turn it back up when I got home, make dinner, and the room would usually feel comfortable by the time I sat down. Then we had a really cold week, and that routine stopped working so well.

I'd get home around 6, turn the heat up, and still be sitting on the couch in a hoodie an hour later. The room eventually warmed up, but I was spending most of my evening waiting for it. After a few days I tried leaving the temperature a little higher while we were out. I also started using the timer on days when I knew we'd be home early. It was a small change, but coming home to a room that was already comfortable felt a lot better than I'd expected.

I'm still not sure what the difference in electricity costs is. That's something I want to pay more attention to next winter.I still turn the heat down when we're going to be out for a while, just not as much as I used to. Getting home at 6 and being able to sit down without waiting for the room to warm up has been pretty nice.

I noticed it today that machine(4 years old) is not dispensing water from top nozzle instead it is spraying from that end tube. I tried to clean the top nozzles but still not working.. but the detergent gets somehow emptied with this spray but the fabric softener tray is on the other side and it doesn't get the water. Any idea what i can do?

Have not used oven in a few months and it is now making this noise every minute or two for about thirty seconds. What is going on?
