Maytag BLOWS

I will NEVER buy another Maytag appliance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They were bouhgt out a few years ago but still they can piss in my boots. I have an electric range that has had a problem since "DAY ONE" and they refuse to fix it (they do say there is a problem with that model). BIG FUCKING DEAL Maytag. Suck my nut sack!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your Company BLOWS........

They won't fix it so they can lick me.....that POS goes out with a HUGE sign (as I promished them) When my Maytag Dishwaher, and my Neptune Washer and Dryer die, piss up a rope.....my money will not got to your Company.

Maytag BLOWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I KNOW why I am not a plumber!!!!!!!

I have not posted for a while for a number of reasons, mostly because half the time my Internet connection is either down or slower than "dial-up" (I hate my Internet provider). Anyway, beyond that issue, I have been too busy so I just have not been online much.

Earlier today, I was going to take my mother to the post office and some other stores she needed to stop at, no biggie. Then she asked "while you are here, could you look at my bathroom faucet? The cold water knob won't come on". "Sure, mom, No Problem". UGH, I figure I can put in a new water valve (an easy fix, right?) NOT. The valve is frozen, so I try to turn off the shut off valve so I can remove it.

That is when the fun began, the water shut off is also frozen. OK, SCREW IT. "Mom, where is your main water shut off? She doesn't have a clue. I find the main and turn off the water to her house, then I get the big pliers out to shut off the valve under the sink. SNAP, the effing valve breaks, OH SHIT!!!!! I explain that I need to replace both valves AND the faucet......off to the home center for parts.....

Now, with parts in hand I rip the whole thing apart and install new parts, BUT the sink is "kinda rusty", I put it back together but I just know this piece of SHIT is going to leak....sure enough it did. "Mom, your sink is rusted out and I can't fix it tonight, I will try to find you a new one, but it is late and I cannot fix it tonight".

Off I go to Home Depot for a new sink. I find one, buy it and tomorrow I will rip it all back apart, tear the rusty, leaky sink out and start over. She will have a nifty new sink, new faucet, new braided supply lines, new shut off valves, basically the whole mess will be brand new.

It will be fixed correctly BUT now I KNOW WHY I am not a plumber!!!!

Happy Trails,
