If you’re like most people, changing the water filter in your fridge is probably not high on your list of priorities. After all, it’s just a small cartridge that filters the water going into your fridge, right? Well, not quite. Let’s talk about what your fridge’s water filter actually does. As water passes through the …

The history of the clothes dryer can be traced back to the early 19th century, when people began to use hand-cranked wringers to extract water from their clothes after washing them. The first patent for a clothes dryer was issued in the United States in 1892 to George T. Sampson, who invented a machine that …
After a long year of back orders on this Whirlpool dishwasher heating element, we finally have some in stock (as of 11/29/21 we have 60 on hand). These took a LONG time to get here so if you need this dishwasher element act fast. This is a replacement heating element used in many Whirlpool designed …
It appears there is a huge black market for counterfeit water filters. Who would’ve believed such a thing? I myself assumed that GE packaging (logo, filter housing print, etc.) indicated an authentic factory made filter… which is why I started asking our GE rep about the “OEM MWF” water filters being sold online for prices …
Samsung dryer replacement elements have gotten expensive but there are alternatives that cost a lot less. If you need JUST the element (not the whole housing along with the thermostats), you can buy part # DC47-00019A and if you want the entire assembly, DC97-14486A replaces the higher priced Samsung version. These elements represent an oddity …

In the past, if your board was obsolete and you couldn’t find it anywhere, you had no option but to replace the appliance. Or, if your Whirlpool board was priced insanely high by …
GE had a DC motor that moved air in the fresh food section of the refrigerator and it turned into a problem… The original motor numbers were WR60X26866 and WR60X26033. These little motors looked just like computer fans and to replace them, GE was subbing to a kit that included new software for the board (kit …
Frigidaire (owned by the Swedish company Electrolux) recently strong-armed her distributors into pulling the parts back from Amazon which is, I’m sure, an attempt to control pricing. One big example of this is the popular bake element 316075104 which has been selling for much less than Electrolux’s published retail price of $41.35 (as of 4/11/18). …

The Trump administration announced higher tarrifs on washing machine imports a few days ago. Companies like Samsung & LG will be hit immediately but soon they will both be making product in the US anyway. The biggest impact, though, could be with Haier (remember? the Chinese company that bought GE Appliances) causing them to do… …
The news hit today that Sears would stop selling Whirlpool branded products because they couldn’t be competitive with other brands. My guess is that Whirlpool wouldn’t cut pricing enough for sears (or wouldn’t be lenient with payment terms). At any rate, immediately after this announcement we got news from Sears that Whirlpool would still be …
