I have a washing machine (full of water) that won't drain or finish its cycle. I noticed while it was running that we were having some power surges. Today I reset the breaker and the power surges occured once every few minutes only while the washer was plugged in even though it wouldn't run.

its a Kenmore 60 series if you need to know.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

This is my first winter in my really old house. I am under the impression that the old radiators require some sort of key-like device that I would use to somehow release air trapped inside the radiators and make them work more efficiently.

Anyone know anything about this and where a guy like me could buy such a key? Thanks!

I would like wainscoating in my stairway, but am not sure if it would be hard with the angles. Does anyone know if there is a wallpaper that would resemble wainscoating?

The plug in was inadvertently knocked sideways and leaked out onto carpet. The stain resembles the brownish residue on the outside of the plug in after it has been used awhile.

I'm looking at a 4 piece leather living room set. The price I was quoted was $2,624 and I asked the salesperson since I was buying the set, would there be a discount? They took off $175. I told him this was still a bit over my budget of $2,000. He said to think about it and call him in the morning, and maybe we could discuss the price then. My question is, Am I crazy for trying to get the best price. I love this set but don't like the price. I would still have to pay tax and delivery. How much more of a discount do you think I could get? I've heard that furniture has a huge markup but I'm not sure how much of the price is negotiable. Thank you for your help.

I have a metal banister/railings leading up my stairway that has been covered with several layers of white paint. I want to strip it down and either leave it natural or paint it a color that coordinates with my house. I do not want to undertake this task myself, and was wondering who I would contact to have it done professionally. Suggestions?

I bought some jasmine vines to plant soon, but upon investigation, I found out that they are fatally poisonous to dogs (and other animals). I also bought a grape vine, and grapes are poisonous to dogs as well.

So I was wondering, what would be safe?

And what's the best way to have both a garden and a dog? She's mainly an indoor dog (a boxer/shepherd mix). I want to plant flowers and possibly fruits and veggies too.

Ideas? What kind of plants do you have around your dogs?

I'm trying to find somewhere where I can buy a really low-to-the-ground couch. Not quite on the floor but about 8" to about 1.5 feet off the ground. And I mean that is hight is where the cushions are, not the bottom of the couch. I just need one where i can sit really low. And a low table would be nice to but that's less important.

I am 24 and live in a small suite in my parents house. I have a small bathroom off of a short hallway which leads straight into a living/entertainment room, and a bedroom off of the living area. I am wanting to redecorate, but I have no ideas. I like so many things. I like the soft colors, but I could just as easily go with bold and loud. Just looking for trendy ideas to make these three rooms work together. Please Help!

Can you just dump it out in the street? Is there a certain time or date? Does your regular garbage man pick it up??

What is the purpose of a bathroom tumbler? Is it for rinsing after brushing? Does it hold Q-Tips? I bought it because it went with the set, but don't know what to do with it!!!
