Well I had to make some changes at the house, and one of them involved the sweepers moving bedrooms. It's a little tight, but they fit nicely. Now to find where I packed all my old advertisements during the move in August

It's not just your upright hose...mine seemed sticky when I got it as well. I wonder if the plastic tool caddy has to do with it

Remove the handle grip and you can soak it in a tub of hot soapy water, or put it in the top rack on the dishwasher

If you have to use an extension cord for the heater, get a 20 amp rated cord

Taking the fan off, I always wear a good leather work glove and hold the fan tight and level while using a socket to take the standard thread nut off. It may take some coaxing

Hans got me making this one a few years back! Always a hit at a party...

A substitute to the Perfeft branded HEPA bags Is the VAC (Vacuum America Clean) brand of cloth HEPA bag

Personally, I have always bought my bearings at the local Auto Parts store. Armature sticks should be found at any QUALITY vacuum repair shop. Where in the US are you located? Many of our members have sought out good shops in different parts of the world, and can make a recommendation. For the...

No, Charles, the metal body machines all popped open. From the 1205 and on the door opened, AND the bag indicator turned on. The plastic body machines illuminated a full bag lamp and shut off.

Well for the time being, I have been using it with towels under the machine. It doesnt leak much at the door, but I'd rather have them there to catch the drips. Appliance Guru Hans Craig is trying to put me in contact with a friend of his who may have some original parts... But until then the...

The bottom left corner of the gasket actually has a gap of .5" under it, when the bottom right is nice and tight against the body. I followed the water drips along the side of the machine. The floors in this house are nowhere near level (its 100 years old) so I'll see if positioning it...

I'm not quite sure why my pictures always end up in backwards order!

Well if there is one chore I just struggle to get myself to do, it's the dishes. My kitchen just doesnt have a spit in the cabinets I could sacrifice to install a dishwasher, so a few weeks back I decided to purchase a portable one. That idea died off when I found out a new one would set me back...

Kirbykelekter Yep, thankfully second rinse is on this model. Does a much nicer job washing my work clothes than the LG set ever did! Human, I was leery giving these tona friend because of the circuit board trouble that would be ahead, but they insisted it would be fine. They were leery giving...

Well, the Kenmore set is now onto its second load of laundry in the house, and I'm definatly pleased with them. They tried telling me I wouldnt want to listen to it running "with that noisy agitator" in my kitchen...it's music to my ears!

The agitator was actually repaired a year or two ago, and the dryer had a new belt around the same time. Glad it was all fixed before I got them!

Yes, I would certainly say I got the better end of the deal! Now I just need a chance to do some laundry, and familiarize myself with the setting of this washer. As much as I didn't like the LG smart washer, i was familiar with setting it to wash

Thanks Mike! As much as I would live to have some more vintage machines in the house, I'm trying to exercise self control and not let any of my hobbies overtake my house. 1000 square feet may be a lot for one person, but it fills up quick when you bring too many toys home!

When I bought my house, it had this LG "smart technology" washer and dryer set. I never cared for it, but I didn't have a set to put in when I moved, so here it stayed. Over the thanksgiving holiday, a friend mentioned they were looking at getting a new washer and dryer. Nothing wrong with the...

"The old fashioned small light switches (those ones you could stack up to three high?)" called Despard switches. Special order at most hardware stores
