What are the pros and cons of a front-loader, and what's your opinion of the top-loader machines without the middle agita- tor? -- Pat, email Dear Pat: Front-loading washers suffer from a unique set of technical problems, due to the drum lying sideways. If the clothes are out of balance or there are too few items in the load to properly balance it, many front-loaders will just shut down, or rock slowly until time runs out. I have received myriad comments from readers with front- loaders who complain about water left behind at the end of the wash cycle, bleach spotting, long wash cycles, excessive vibrations and other complaints. One issue unique to front-load- ers is most troubling of all: mold buildup in the rubber gasket of the door and the resulting odor on clothes, especially towels. If all of this is not enough, recent studies of consumer-reviews posted across the Internet show a trend of U.S. front-loading washers to have problems with bearing fail- ure usually within the first six years, with the repair costs close to replacement cost. Following a great deal of thought and research, I pur- chased an LG Wave Force top- loading washer and the companion Perfect Steam dryer. The washer has no center agi- tator, and has extra-large capacity and high effi- ciency. So far, I could not be happier. The wave action is a hoot to watch through the window on top of the machine. I can wash a small load or large, customize the water temperature, use preset cycles for specific needs and even stop the cycle to add garments or change the settings at any point. Whites come out bright and sparkling without using bleach and even in cold water, which thrills me to no end. Dear Mary: I read your column "A Badge of Thrifty Honor." I'll ask the question that I know everyone wants to ask: How did you find that washer/dryer deal? -- Gail, email Dear Gail: We purchase refur- bished machines. The washer and dryer are the top of the line mod- els from LG and were used as floor models in trade shows. Nei- ther had been operated. But because they were removed from the boxes and people opened and peered inside, they could not be sold as "new," so they become "refurbs." Both appli- ances have full warranties and are about as new as can be, as far as I am con- cerned. Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate The washer, as you read, has a small scratch on one side. I found the washer locally on craigslist.org. I found the dryer by searching online, at SearsOutlet.com. The secret is that I knew exact- ly the models, I wanted them in white and I was willing to wait until I found them. Do you have a question for Mary?

Awareness Month, Raley's stores are offering customers a conve- nient, budget-friendly opportuni- ty to support their neighborhood food bank by simply purchasing everyday products that may already be on their shopping lists. Market, soda maker support food banks In honor of National Hunger and many other commonly pur- chased items. To find a partici- pating product, just look for the PepsiCo Food For Families dis- play card at the shelf.

PepsiCo has selected 24 partici- pating products that cover every- thing from orange juice to cereal, "PepsiCo is proud to partner with Raley's for this cause," said Paul Turcotte, Business Develop- ment Manager in PepsiCo's Cali- fornia Region. "The summer months are a challenging time for food banks, with the absence of school lunch programs, and Food For Families provides needed support to help feed hungry fam- ilies in the community." When a customer purchases any of the following brands at Raley's, PepsiCo will make a 10- cent donation per product to Food For Families, benefiting 72 food banks throughout Northern California and Nevada. "Hunger exists throughout the year, not just during the holiday season," said Jennie Teel-Wolter, Raley's Community Relations Manager. "It's our hope that with our customers' support, this cam- paign will generate between $50,000 and $75,000 to benefit our local food banks during the time they need it most."
