Maytag laundry tip of the week.


Skirt the iron.

Ironing can be an extremely time-consuming project. Any activities that help prevent wrinkles will ensure that laundry day is a little shorter.

Always remove your clothes from the dryer while they're still warm. The longer they sit around in the drum of your machine, the more likely they will be to have wrinkles. Listening for the buzzer not only keeps the laundry process moving, but will prevent you further headaches after you fold.

Always read your care labels. Cotton clothing, as well as some blends, react better to certain temperatures or drying times. You can greatly reduce fabric damage that leads to wrinkling through correct care.

Sleep Tips



Set a regular bedtime. Go to bed at the same time every night. Choose a time when you normally feel tired, so that you don’t toss and turn. Try not to break this routine on weekends when it may be tempting to stay up late. If you want to change your bedtime, help your body adjust by making the change in small daily increments, such as 15 minutes earlier or later each day.

Maytag Kitchen tip of the week.

Stay Cool

• Keep your refrigerator at the right temperature.
The temperature of your refrigerator should be below 40° F (ideally 37° F) and your freezer should be kept at 0° F. This is the single most important thing you can do to not only improve freshness, but keep food safe from harmful bacteria.

Maytag laundry tip of the week.


Sort, sort, sort!

Spend more time sorting, and you'll spend less time washing, drying and folding.

As any parent of a teenager knows, often times clothing will end up in the hamper without ever being worn. If you can identify which garments got put into the laundry basket instead of ending up back on a hanger or in a drawer where they belong, you'll not only save time, but you'll save water, energy, and money, as well.

Instead of waiting until wash day to sort the laundry, do it as you take off your clothes. Have two baskets in the closet, bathroom, or laundry room for dirty clothes - one for whites, and one for darks and colors. This way, you can just grab a basket and throw it in the wash. .

Sleep Tips

Shift-work strategies.
Have a nap: 
                Get all the sleep you can. If it is possible for you, an evening nap before going to work will prevent part of the accumulation of sleep loss and improve  your alertness at work. Even if you don't sleep, a 1 hour nap in a dark and quiet room  will help  you to  feel more rested.

Whirlpool's 6th Sense, and more.

The Whirlpool 5.0 cu. ft. Duet® High Efficiency Front-Loading Washer has lots of helpful features to help you in the Laundry room:



6th Sense™ Technology
Measures the size of the load and determines how much water is needed to clean it. Sensors monitor the inlet temperature, gradually warming water to keep cleaning enzymes at optimal effectiveness. Plus, sensors prevent oversudsing in low-water systems.

Cradle Clean™ Technology
Simulates hand washing during extra care cycles by "rocking" the tilted wash drum instead of spinning it.


Deep Clean Steam Option
Penetrates deep into fabric fibers, breaking down and dissolving stains like grass and grease without pretreating.

Getting Steamy



 The 7.4 cu. ft. Maytag® Maxima™ High-Efficiency Electric Steam Dryer has a nozzle that releases a mist of water into the warm drum to create steam. The feature helps remove wrinkles and odors from a small load of just-worn clothes, or prevent wrinkles from setting into a full load of dry clothing. It's almost like having a dry cleaner right in your own home.

laundry. Both Maytag and Whirlpool have options. 



Maytag's Fresh Hold™ Option
The industry’s first built-in fan is part of Dynamic Venting Technology™ and helps keep clean laundry from smelling bad, so you can wash tonight and dry tomorrow. Stop worrying about leaving clothes in the washer too long.







Whrilpool's Fanfresh™ Option With Dynamic Venting Technology™ (DVT)

The built-in washer fan activates after the wash cycle is over, tumbling clothes for up to 16 hours, so you can wash and dry a small load right in the washer,** or run the fan to start drying out the washer between cycles.

Washers have turned green.

New washers use less water than washers did just a few years ago. If you are replacing an older washer don't be alarmed to see less water in the wash cycle, and even much less water in the rinse cycle. This reduces the amount of water used for each load, and has a large impact on the amount of water you use over the course of the year. If you are on town water this will help keep your water bill down. Remember to adjust the amount of soap you use for each load, as you may see suds after the rinse cycle if you overdo it.

Our Excelsior laundry detergent can help you reduce the amount of soap you need for each load. Come in and see us for a sample bottle today.

A good night's sleep

Pressure points can be the cause of a bad night sleep, causing you to wake up frequently and toss and turn to get comfortable. The average person tosses and turns some 80 to 100 times a night. A new mattress can help reduce the amount of time you spend tossing and turning, and get you a better night sleep.

Trying out a new mattress, and a new pillow as well, can help point you in the direction of a good night sleep. Come in and talk to a sales representative today and take a mattress for a "test snooze".
