During my trip to the Bosch showroom, I was most interested in finding out how to maintain a front loading washer.  I suppose I was told pretty much exactly what I thought I’d be told, but it was nice to hear it from someone else.  Be proactive about caring for your washer.

As you know, we’re in the market for a new washer, because we’re unhappy with the mold issue in our LG. I just can’t seem to get rid of the mold and now the washer is leaking. I was fortunate to be invited to the Bosch From Hamper to Hanger Event this week in Scottsdale, AZ. And what an event it was, not only did I learn a ton, but we stayed at the beautiful [...]

We bought our house in 2004 and I put in top of the line LG washer and dryer.  I think on sale at Fry’s, they were about $1200 each.   I was deciding between Bosch and LG because I wanted “quiet” as they are quite close to my kitchen where everyone dwells.  I regret not choosing the Bosch, I can’t totally remember why I didn’t but Bosch has endured some mold complaints too.  Not nearly as many as LG [...]
