Appnut, I had no idea... ...that you were the Bob of the infamous "Bob Load." Happy birthday! So what exactly is a Bob load? Super sized? Does this qualify? (that's a large basket--3cu ft.)

Austin: Great job on the birthday girft for Bob. Only you could come up with that great of an idea! Love the registered trademark! spinout: You should witness a Bob load. Let's just say they are huge loads of laundry, not overloaded machines, just a lot of dirty clothes all the time. TONS! Happy B-day again appnut. Steve

A penny saved...
My grandmother saved literally hundreds of the ghetto tupperware bowls for years! We dragged them out of the attic by the garbage-bag full. I guess that comes from living through a very hard depression and two world-wars. Part of her "white" washloads in her Maytag Highlander was always a few Ziploc plastic bags. They were too expensive to just toss in the trash don'tcha know! At the end of the spin cycle, there would always be at least one that had water still in it...

Sometimes the fear of letting go is very real and trusting t
Greed and fear are perhaps the largest human motivators. ...lol.... let's save everything..... Just in case consumer goods ever stop being made. My ex mother-in-law would spend hours folding plastic grocery bags down to an inch square and rubber-banding them to save indefinitely. Hoarding and ordering from catalogues and from TV "boutiques" was never difficult. (Well, it is a very base instinct, dear.) Wetting her hands to actually WASH something was a cardinal sin. *LOL* There were floor to ceiling draperies in her bedroom about a yard (meter) from the wall. Behind them was loaded from top to bottom with useless junky ratty shit. There were rags in the linen closet as towels and sheets. Apparently there is no concept of what is valuable (worth keeping) and what is not (a/k/a garbage) with some people...... Others just like to see their piles in front of them while the closets are packed with even MORE useless shit (or stranger even, nearly totally empty). Since I have the reputation of being paranoid with health concerns, may I go further? I don't like plastics with printing on them in the DW. IMHO, The ink gets distrbuted all over everything, as the heat, chemicals and mechanical action wears it away. BTW this mother-in-law would use only (*GASP*) a tablespoon-full of liquid detergent in a top-loader. The clothing was disguistingly stinky, grey, yellow and othewrise gross. Why? Fear of putting a washer into a NYC apt. "There will be suds in the sink and it will inconvenience other tenants." she was told When she went away for a week, I cleared out her shit. Painted her house (it had been 12 years) and did ALL her laundry (no dryer, BTW). She cried and said "I feel like I went on my honeymoon and came back to a new house". Thrown out were two dozen leaf-and-lawn size plastic bags FULL of papers alone..... So she then asked "How did you get my laundry so clean and to smell so good? (Taurus woman, it's all about the smell). Answer? "I used detergent". She though I was f---ing with her. Sweetie, darling, chemical engineers and scientists go to school for years to get advanced degrees and they say (on the label) use a 1/2 cup of detergent. Based on what qualifications do YOU say a tablespoon is enough? She laughed, but got the point. And further I said, if you see suds in the sink add salt or softener to the sink. "OH" Besides you are in your own house now. Who exaclty is going to complain? With that ex I got rid of TWO big problems. LOL So what can you throw out today? LOL | ||

I've slacked off on using plastic bowls and cups since getting my DishDrawer. It's much more likely to flip lightweight items. I don't think that's so much due to stronger spray as because of more "headroom" in the drawer design compared to an upper rack that's positioned closer to the top of the tank.
