What is the difference between electric and gas washer and Dryer? I am planing to buy one. which is more energy efficient? can any one help me on this?

SR answered Deepthi_Ganti's question

Gas dryers cost slightly more than electric ones to buy averaging about $50.00 more, but tend to be less expensive to run---although how much less depends on energy prices where you live. All dryers use electricity to rotate the drum that holds the items being dried and to run a fan that blows hot air into the drum. The difference between electric and gas dryers is that electric dryers also use electricity to provide the heat while in gas dryers natural gas or propane provides it.

Gas dryers heat up more quickly than electric ones, therefore making drying times shorter---making them generally kinder to fabrics. On the other hand, gas dryers naturally involve having gas in the house. Gas always brings with it the small but real possibility of explosion, and the process of burning gas results in small amounts of pollutants being released into the air in the house. If asking my personal opinion I use electric so that I don' t ever have to worry about gas leaks.

Enjoy your new machines!

I am looking for a stick vaccume cleaner for my upgraded hard carpet. I also want a light weight cleaner. can any one please help me on this?

wendy answered Deepthi_Ganti's question

Stick vacuum cleaners are awesome! Light, easy to use, and not bulky and heavy like a standard vacuum cleaner. There are many fantastic stick vacuum cleaners on the market today. So, it is really a matter of preference on what, specifically, you are looking for.

Hoover LINX Cordless Stick Vacuum

$134.23 (I own the standard Wind Tunnel vacuum - it is great technology!)
Equipped with Hoover's patented WindTunnel technology, this cordless and bagless stick vacuum cleaner uses the power of rotating brushes and three suction tunnels to lift and trap dirt. The unit's motorized power brush picks up even deep-down dirt in the thickest plush carpeting, while its one-touch brushroll switch on the handle of the cleaner turns off the brushroll, making it easy to transition from carpets to bare-floor surfaces. Move effortlessly throughout the house thanks to the cleaner's cordless design--no more having to stop to re-plug the power cord when moving from room to room. The machine runs on an interchangeable 18-volt Lithium Ion battery, which ensures maximum "fade-free" power right up until the battery becomes completely drained. Its battery-fuel gauge clearly indicates the amount of battery life remaining, while the included Energy Star battery charger quickly and efficiently powers it back up to a full charge. Other details include an 11-inch-wide nozzle with a wide-mouth opening, automatic height adjustment, edge cleaning bristles for closer access along baseboards and corners, soft non-marring rear wheels, and a low-profile base and reclining handle for access under furniture, as well as a comfort-grip handle and the ability to stand upright on its own without needing to lean up against a wall. Lightweight at just over 7-1/4 pounds, the cordless stick vac measures approximately 11 by 8 by 42 inches and carries a six-year limited warranty on the vacuum and a two-year limited warranty on the battery and charger.

I am planing to buy a new stainless steel refrigerator. And I need a lot of storage space in that, as I cook twice a week and store for rest of the week. And my budget range is around $1500 to $2000. Can you please suggest any good brand please?

west40 answered Deepthi_Ganti's question

I would suggest either LG or Samsung as far as brand names of Refrigerators. One of the distributors I deal with who sells appliances says that those are very good brands for the money. I would also look at buying a model with the freezer on the bottom as they are great for storage.
