A walk down Memory Lane






A long-time customer visited our store recently.  He has shopped at Jeff Lynch Appliance and TV Center since the 1950s and he personally knew our founder Jeff Lynch.  We just love it when a seasoned customer stops by for a chat.   It's so enjoyable to hear stories about Mr. Lynch and the loyalty of his customers.  Many of us never had the chance to meet him so we savor these nuggets of the past.

This particular customer was looking for a new laundry pair.  The last one he purchased from us was a Maytag set in 1995.  It was starting to give out on him.  1995!  He went on to tell us that the pair he purchased in 1995 was to replace the pair he purchased from us in 1972.   So in 45 years he owned just two washers and dryers.  Isn't that amazing?!?

He even had his old paperwork showing where he purchased his first set in 1972 from Jeff Lynch and the 1995 set from Mark Lynch.

Oh the joys of walking down memory lane.

4 tips to keep your dishwasher in good working order

Image
2/3/18 There is so much information out there about how to take care of and clean our dishwashers that it can be overwhelming.  If you keep up with the cleaning and maintenance you can extend the life of your dishwasher.  We studied the owner’s manuals for Kitchen Aid, GE and Bosch dishwashers and came up with the 4 most helpful cleaning tips.   Check your owner’s manual for specific instructions and frequency. Clean the filters Inside your dishwasher there is at least one filter that collects solid particles that may have been on your dishes.  If you don’t clean it regularly then your dishes may show visible signs of dirt and the dishes can feel gritty to the touch.  It is easy to remove and clean them.   You can just do a quick look at the filter about once a month if you tend to put dirty dishes in the dishwasher.  If you are in the habit of clearing the dishes of food before putting them in the dishwasher you may only need to ch...
