" things you can do with Laundry Pedestals "

2011-06-01T19:54:00.000-07:00

I found this interesting.

This is a white Whirlpool Laundry Pedestal installed under an oven.

A washer or dryer would normally sit on top of it.

A handyman created this.

I'm still debating its merits.

Dishwasher Height Guide 2011

2011-05-31T19:19:00.000-07:00

Measure your Dishwasher area before you go shopping.

A quick accurate measure will help to assure your new Dishwasher will fit. Saving you time and a lot of hand washing. In addition you'll avoid waiting a week or three for your new choice to be reordered.

You're going to measure from the kitchen floor up to the bottom front lip of your kitchen counter.

Measure accurately, if you come up with less than 34" than you may have "height issues".

Measure both the left and right side of your dishwasher go with the lowest dimension.

Example - if left side measures 33 1/2" and the right measures 33 3/4" your effective height is 33 1/2".

Unbelievably Scary Cooktop

2009-03-24T10:20:00.000-07:00

Believe it or not this electric 220volt cooktop was still working, and was used to cook breakfast the morning I replaced it.

I was told by the homeowner that it had broken 4 months ago and "being that she was a single mom with 3 hungry kids it was in continuous use."

Bottom right was the only working burner.
