				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1> New Washer Means New U.S. Jobs</h1>
<p>&#8220;The new GE high-efficiency topload washer features the industry&#39;s largest capacity (five cubic feet) for toploading models while using less energy and water than a traditional washer. In addition to its efficiency, consumers will appreciate the time-saving, convenience-focused features on the new GE ENERGY STAR(R) washer, including SmartDispense(TM).&#8221;</p>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="http://i2.wp.com/www.uakc.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/wpid-Photo-Jan-30-2013-242-PM.jpg" target="_blank" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" rel="lightbox[2219]" title="New GE High-Efficiency Washer"><img src="http://i2.wp.com/www.uakc.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/wpid-Photo-Jan-30-2013-242-PM.jpg?resize=135%2C48" id="blogsy-1359585295423.965" class="alignleft" alt="America at Work"  data-recalc-dims="1"></a></div>
<p>GE has added 150 new U.S. jobs to its factory in Louisville, Kentucky where they have been churning out topload washers since 1953. With 928 employs at the washing machine factory alone, GE has over 4,000 total employees in Louisville alone having added about 1,500 production jobs in 2012 as part of an $800 million investment.</p>
<p>HE (High Efficiency) washers were once the limited to frontload models, but new HE technology has led to the consumer preferred topload washers now becoming the fastest growing segment of the washing machine industry. &#8220;GE&#39;s new HE topload is around 60 percent more water efficient than a traditional topload washer,&#8221; said Heather Koyama, GE Appliances topload washing machine product manager. &#8220;There is no agitator in an HE washer, so the extra capacity lets the washer hold more clothes. The higher spin speeds allow more moisture to be removed from the clothes, which saves energy in the dryer.&#8221;</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Are you ever annoyed by all the questions salespeople seem to ask? Have you ever wondered why they seem to be giving you a quiz, instead of helping you make your purchase?</p>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="http://i0.wp.com/www.uakc.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/wpid-Photo-Jul-11-2012-1058-AM.jpg" target="_blank" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" rel="lightbox[1382]" title="Buying new appliances - How to communicate with your sales associate."><img src="http://i0.wp.com/www.uakc.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/wpid-Photo-Jul-11-2012-1058-AM.jpg?resize=400%2C286" id="blogsy-1342029963973.181" class="alignleft" alt=""  data-recalc-dims="1"></a></div>
<p>Here&#39;s why this happens: Appliance sales folks work in an environment where there are many brands, many categories within the brands, and many products within the categories. Vastly different products perform different functions across a wide range of prices. When you bounce in and say you want a washer, the sale person has to ask a number of questions to help you find the product that most precisely fits your needs.</p>
<p> It&#39;s impolite and impertinent to just jump in and ask a customer how much she can afford or how big her family is, so a series of questions related to the size of the washer that might fit your needs and showing a couple of examples in different price ranges might help narrow the field. Of course, the sales person might also want to know whether your interests are in a front-load or a top-load washing machine. </p>
<p>One issue is that &#8220;you don&#39;t know what you don&#39;t know&#8221;. As a buyer, if you don&#39;t know the advantages and disadvantages of a front-load washer vs. a top-load then it&#39;s the sales associates job to help explain this in order for you to make a determination of which product will work best for you. The more you learn, the better informed you are, and the more likely you are to make the proper decision, yes? Well&#8230;yes, this is true up to a point.</p>
<p>Decison-making is about broadening the scope of the decison so you have a good spectrum of choices- an inductive process. A sales person should make sure that you have an idea of the range of possibilities that exist. BUT, there is also a time to switch from the inductive process to the deductive process. There is a  &#8220;cost of additional knowledge&#8221; that becomes too great, and the decision-maker (buyer) needs to limit the alternatives and start narrowing the field. You and your sales associate should know when this transpires. You might even ask each other, &#8220;Have we looked at enough options here to begin zeroing in on the best fit?&#8221;</p>
<p>Maybe the most frustrating part of the sales process for both buyer and seller is to keep switching back and forth from the inductive, &#8220;let&#39;s look at what&#39;s out there&#8221; process to the deductive, &#8220;let&#39;s start making the best choice&#8221;. As a customer, you should be comfortable with the process and timeline, but you should also recognize when you are spinning your wheels. Don&#39;t waste your time and the sales person&#39;s time by moving from the inductive process of examining the alternatives to the deductive process of narrowing the choices and back again.  By the way, sales people are at least as likely to switch back and forth this way as customers are, so you need to keep each other on track without being overbearing.</p>
<p>So, here&#39;s a good general rule for both customer and sales person. Set a couple of easy ground rules when you start working with each other. Customers need to briefly explain their situation, let the salesperson know where they are in the purchase process, and what their needs are. Salepeople need to explain their role and  make sure that the customer is comfortable with their questions, direction, and guidance through the sales process.</p>
<p>The sales people at Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center are extremely knowledgable, yet they&#39;re also very  efficient. They can give you all the information you need on products and prices to help make the very best decision that suits your specific needs without wasting your time. Call or visit today.</p>

<p>Steam washers and dryers use water vapor, or steam as a cycle in the washing or drying process.</p>
<p>There are a lot of claims and counterclaims among competing brands as to the advantages and benefits of various steam options in washers and dryers.</p>
<p>Most independent tests confirm that steam washers do a better job of removing stains than those that are not equipped with this feature. They also will sanitize clothes helping eliminate allergens and dust mites.</p>
<p>Steam dryers are particularly good at removing wrinkles and can serve to refresh clothes such as dress slacks thereby saving trips to the dry cleaners.  </p>
<p>Contact the experts at Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center for more information on available brands and the best prices on steam equipped washers and dryers.</p>
