<p>[QUOTE="antidiem, post: 2219109, member: 30"]Oh, wow, I haven't run any pots or pans through mine in over a decade - I didn't realize shiny copper was possible from dish soap lol - no idea! I dislike the pods, by comparison to the old cascade powder in a box. I didn't realize there was any actual reason to dislike them other than if you pick one up with wet hands, it could come apart on you, but I could dislike the part about changed ingredients just because I dislike change in general! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/wink.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=";)" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The dishwasher over heating the water - makes sense to me, I bet my own darned dishwasher heats the water so much hotter than I would ever realize, and then I do use the heat cycle afterwards too! Thanks for the ideas, Ola. I've gotten used to eating off of my chipped dishware! Nothing much matches in my kitchen anyway! </p><p><br /></p><p>But it never happened with my old dishwasher, left that one behind in 2006. </p><p>When we moved in, the washing machine that came with our house smelled like mildew!

Looks and works like an older model Whirlpool. So, I can recommend the Roper brand washer over the Maytag I replaced, but that was some years ago. </p><p><br /></p><p>I still have my old Montgomery Ward microwave saved up in the attic, purchased in 1977. Used through 2006 when we moved in here. I think the electronics on it would still work if I ever need to replace my newer one that came with the house.
