I purchased an extended warranty for my front loading Kenmore (rebadged Whirlpool Duet) washing machine. Since the Maytag front loaders had been so trouble prone I was a little concerned so I figured it was worth it for the peace of mind. I haven't had any trouble with the machine but I did have Sears come and service it once a year - why not - it's already paid for and who knows they just might find something. But they never tried to see me anything when they came to the house.

Yes, I can tell a difference. I am 46 YO and plus size, so I don't have a lot of wrinkles, mainly just lines around my eyes. The main difference I notice is in the texture of my skin and around my nose. I get the awful buildup around my nose if I stop using my stuff (seborrhea _ sp???). About a week and a half back, I ran out of the Daily Renewal Cream and the Regenrist serum and couldn't get to the store for 3 days. That was all it took; the buildup was back and my skin felt awful! I restocked and used the Olay Microdermabrasion Kit one night (great product, too! I don't use it twice a week like the box says, just a couple times per month), and in a couple of days it was back to normal. I am trying (and trying and trying ...) to lose weight. I'm really interested how many lines and wrinkles will appear when I do lose the weight. :) Then we'll see how well the products are really working.

terriks, There are lots of great recipes at the joe cross website. These are some of my favorites: Carrot Apple Lemon Juice This recipe makes 2 servings. Ingredients: 4 apples 4 carrots 2 lemons, peeled Directions: Rinse all ingredients and cut to size for your juicer. Add ingredients to juicer. Enjoy! A lot of times I sub a grapefruit for one of the apples Green Lemonade Juice Ingredients: 6-8 kale leaves (Australian Tuscan Cabbage) 3 handfuls spinach 1 green apple 1 cucumber 2 celery stalks 1 lemon Directions: Rinse all ingredients and cut to size for your juicer. Add ingredients to juicer. Enjoy! Green Citrus Juice This recipe makes 2 servings. Ingredients: 2 green apples 2 oranges, peeled 6 big handfuls of leafy greens (kale, chard, spinach, romaine, etc.) Directions: Rinse all ingredients and cut to size for your juicer. Add ingredients to juicer. Enjoy! I usually sub out an orange for a grapefruit in that too. Mostly those make about 32oz. Gazpacho Juice 4 plum tomatoes ( I usually use 2 tomatoes and 2 carrots) 1 large cucumber 2 celery stalks 1 red bell pepper 1 small red onion 2 cups parsley (leaves and stems, roughly chopped) 1 lime the site below is also great. you can plug in your ingredients and it will give you recipes. I started out buying a juice a couple times a week from a juice cafe, then every day, then I got a juicer. trying it out when someone else makes it is easier and cheaper at first. :) there are also a lot of juicers out there and you have to figure out your goals before you buy one. We have two. a centrifugal and a masticating. one is MUCH easier and faster to use than the other. once you start making them every day you start subbing and come up with your own recipes. I try to use cabbage, kale, bock choy, broccoli, romaine, spinach, swiss chard, etc in the green lemonade. I just use two each day and switch it up. I usually have two 32 oz of the green lemonade a day. Here is a link that might be useful: recipe site

It is necessary to drain the water that remains inside the machine in order to access the drain filter and clean it. If you wish to properly maintain your machine, you should periodically remove the filter and clean it out. I usually don't find anything other than the occasional piece of plastic or bits of sand in mine, but I like to check it quarterly. This filter and drain isn't unique to LG washers. Most front loaders that I know of have them.
