Every Appliance Category
The goal is the most complete repair reference for home appliances, not just laundry. One category is live now with 35 models; 6 more are queued. Categories are finished and verified one at a time, so what is here is real.

Counts are the number of ENERGY STAR listed models in that category — the pool we will work through, not a promise of finished pages. Order is by demand, not by pool size.

Why one category at a time
A page that lists a model's capacity, dimensions, part numbers and error codes cannot be generated from a single dataset. Specifications come from one source, part numbers from a parts catalogue, manual links from each manufacturer's support site, and error-code definitions from the troubleshooting section of the manual itself. Each of those needs its own collection pass and its own check.
Doing one category properly takes a few days. Doing seven categories badly takes the same few days and produces a site that is wrong in seven different ways. We chose the first option: finish a category, verify it, then start the next one.
What every category page contains
The structure is identical across categories, so you always know where to look:
- Model pages — one per model, carrying the certified specifications, the manufacturer's manual link, the published part numbers, and the error codes that model can display.
- Specification pages — the full data table with unit conversions, plus the practical reading: will it fit, what does it cost to run.
- Parts pages — manufacturer part numbers grouped by system, each paired with the symptom it fixes, and the ordering checks that stop you buying the wrong one.
- Problem and recall pages — the failure paths the appliance is actually provisioned for, the recall status from the public database, and an honest repair-or-replace read.
- Error-code pages — one page per code per brand, split into what you can check yourself and what needs a technician.
- Symptom guides — start from what the appliance is doing wrong, across every category and brand.
How the model pool counts are made
The pool figure for each queued category is the number of models that manufacturers have listed with ENERGY STAR — a public, programmatic dataset covering appliances currently on the US market. It is a fair measure of how much work a category represents, not a promise that every one of those models will get a page.
The real number is larger in one direction and smaller in another. Larger, because ENERGY STAR only covers models still being sold — the install base includes a decade of discontinued machines that people still need parts for. Smaller, because not every listed model has usable part data or a manual we can verify, and we will not publish a page we cannot back up.
Start from a symptom instead
If the appliance is broken right now, the category does not matter. Every machine that will not drain, will not spin or will not heat fails for the same short list of reasons. The symptom guides work without a model number or a brand, and they are the fastest route from “it is full of water” to a decision about whether to call someone.
