Dull Men's Club
An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine or advice forum.
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. Not hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.
8. All polls must have an "Africa, by Toto" option. Why? Because we hear the drums echoing tonight.

What did you learn about your washer?
I've never had an issue with my washer, and I'm not gonna spend $600+ just to have a matching set, but when it goes I'll probably swap it for a front load. Despite a little more maintenance they tend to wash better and spin faster so they will dry even faster.
I might also consider replacing it if I move into a space where stacking them makes sense.
If you live in a humid climate, you'll struggle with mold in a front load. Work great in the desert tho!
It stays dry enough with the AC on. I've heard you just want to keep the door cracked open and swipe under the rubber seal once in a while
And buy the above-mentioned afresh tablets every 6 weeks. I got rid of mine after a year. My sister still complains about it. It's such a problem that brands advertise that they've fixed the problem with nanoparticles and space age coatings. Muchike Subaru, they haven't fixed the problem.
I'll readily acknowledge that they spin way more water out and are likely more gentle on clothes, but I'll never buy another.
