Front load washing machines have been an increasing trend in the market and this is one brand that is leading the pack—and doing it very well.

Front-loading washers used to be the standard in the 1940s and 50s, but were phased out with top-loaders because they caused massive vibration and had to be anchored to the floor to keep them from moving all over the place. Electrolux’s new Perfect Balance System, showcased in their new line of laundry appliances, is the solution for just this problem. This state-of-the- Continue reading »

You’re in the kitchen, grabbing an after-dinner-snack, and question whether or not you forgot to put the dishes in the dishwasher.

The swish-slosh-swish-slosh sounds you’re used to hearing don’t echo throughout your house anymore after dinner time.

This ain’t your mother’s dishwasher. It’s a Bosch.

Dick Blume / Post-Standard file photo - from Syracuse.com

Dumping an appliance may seem like an easy fix for someone who wants to get rid of their old fridge, but it has some pretty hard consequences not only for the environment, but for you too. Refrigerators are one such example- refrigerants like ammonia, Freon and methane are used in the refrigeration process. They become hazardous when an old, worn out appliance begins to deteriorate in an open environment. Heavy metals like iron and copper make up 50-60% of a fridge’s total weight leaving a huge risk if those heavy metals were to leach into local water systems or rivers. Continue reading »
