So your Samsung Top-loading washer won't drain or spin

 This isn't your traditional deal post. This is primarily just a way for me to chronicle what happened with my washer and publicly recommend a fix. 

I have a WA50M7450AW/A4  top loading washing machine. Up until today, it has been pretty great. Large capacity, gets clothes clean, can't complain. 

As it was doing its final spin to get the water out, it stopped, leaving around 4-6 inches of water in the bin. 

After doing some googling, I found this youtube video > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOnxbj-unfc

While its not the same model its very close.  I followed the video almost exactly. 

1. Adjustments. 

 I didn't take the entire wanter pump apart. We just opened the flush valve and stuck some needle nose pliers down in the water pump to find this..

Reassembled all of it and turned it back on and it all works fine now.  So if you have a Samsung top load washer, do yourself a favor and wash your socks and smaller items in delicate bags. Because if you don't you'll have to disassemble your washer like me.

Shame on samsung for making this trash design, this should have never happened. 

 

AUKEY EP-T25 True Wireless - Headphone Review

 Hey Everyone, 

So a days ago I posted a deal about the AUKEY EP-T25 True Wireless headphones being on sale on amazon. They were only $16 and so because I love headphones I decided to pick them up. Rather than just enjoying the headphones, I thought I would write a little review about them. 

Case: Most wireless earbuds come in some sort of charing case and these are no exception. The case is small and flat enough to comfortably fit in my pocket. It similar in thickness to my Jabra T65's but thicker than my Airpods classic. The plastic is cheap feeling and obviously thinner than a more premium product like the T65 but nothing super objectionable. One thing I love is that the case is magnetic, so when you put the buds near the charging ports, it pulls them in. 

The buds: The earbuds are comfortable and the included gel tips are adequate. The light buds had no trouble staying in my ears. My only complaint is that the portion of the buds that face outward have touch controls on them. So if you want to push the buds down into your ears or get them positioned differently, the controls often miss-trigger. Not a huge deal but a small annoyance. 

Sound Quality: Decent. Its not going to blow away some of your more expensive buds but I would put them in a $30-$40 sound quality range. Adequate bass, a little muffled mids/highs. Very usable

Battery Life: I haven't found the end of the included charge so I am overall quite pleased.

Microphone: In this age of video calls, the mic quality is important and here is where they fall short. The mic is AWFUL. Absolutely terrible. Don't buy these for the mic because its un-usable. 

Overall: A solid offering at $16, I would say decent value up to around $25-30. Any more than that, you are better off buying a different brand and if microphone performance is important to you, stay FAR away.

As of this posting its still available for $16!
