Appliance

Why isn't my dishwasher cleaning well?

Phosphates were recently banned from dishwasher detergents, to the frustration of many dishwasher owners. Stained and filmed dishware and glasses are often the result, regardless of the brand or type of dishwasher detergent. To help alleviate the problem, we recommend setting your hot water heater to at least 120 degrees, and to experiment with different detergents to see what works best with your water.

With soft water, it's easy to use too much detergent. Filling the detergent dispenser all the way will result in filming and other wash problems. Consult your manual for guidelines, but remember that with soft water you'll get better wash performance if you use less detergent.


It's making noises my old one never did, or working differently. Is something wrong?

Over the past few years appliances have made huge strides in efficiency. They sound and operate differently, so it's easy to mistake these operating differences for a problem. Your owner's manual often contains important information on operating procedures and characteristics that you may not be accustomed to.


What kind of detergent is best for my HE washer?

High efficiency (HE) washers are designed to clean clothes using less energy, water and detergent. Since they use less water HE detergent should be used to ensure proper cleaning.


My front-load washer doesn't always spin out. Why?

If the load isn't balanced properly when the spin begins, it can go out of balance and shut down to prevent damage to the machine. Simply re-distribute the clothes and try again.


Do HE washers need any maintenance?

It's a good idea to follow the guidelines in your user manual regarding cleaning around door seals and filters, if applicable. Clean the dryer vent of lint after each use.


Why does my Range make a burning smell when I first use it?

A new oven will emit a burning smell during initial use; it will go away after a few hours of operation. It is simply the oils used in the manufacturing process burning off the metal.

Furniture

How do I arrange for repair or service of my furniture?

We have factory trained Furniture Service Technicians to service and repair the furniture we sell. Please see the Furniture Warranty Guide for general info, and call for details. We also offer service outside of warranty. The initial service call is $149.99 to come out, and must be paid prior to scheduling an appointment. A quote will be provided for the cost of parts and labor before service is performed. We service Monday - Friday, but availability may be limited due to existing appointments.

Is it normal for the fabric to "shed" or "pill"?

This is often a temporary or maintainable characteristic. When it does not affect the long-term reliability of the fabric, it is not considered a warrantable defect.


Why has my fabric developed patches that look different than the rest?

You may have Rayon, which offers a great, stylish look but develops unique characteristics with use. Rayon is a lustrous fiber. It will immediately develop light and dark areas that look like wear. This is a characteristic of the fabric, and does not affect its usable life or reliability.


Why doesn't my furniture look or feel like what I saw on the floor or in the catalog?

A slight difference in comfort between our floor display and a newly delivered product is normal and should be expected. Cushion cores are often firm when new, but will soften with use. Recliner mechanisms may also be stiff upon arrival but will loosen over time.

Many models of England furniture have zippers to allow areas with stuffing to be adjusted (added, removed or redistributed) by the owner.

Wood finishes may vary slightly in color between items. This is a result of normal variations in the natural wood.

Many varieties of wood furniture have an intentional "distressed" look, including rub marks and small pits or scratches on the surface of the wood. These marks can be clearly seen on the floor displays, but may not be obvious when viewing special order product in a catalog or online.


Mattress

Is it normal to see an impression where I sleep?

You'll typically experience an impression where you sleep, as the various layers of a mattress compress. This usually happens in the first days or months of sleeping on a new bed, and is completely normal. On the other hand, in the rare instance the mattress support system fails, the impression will be deep and there will be an obvious difference in support between the affected area and the rest of the bed. While visible impressions are to be expected, anything over 1.5" deep is considered to be evidence of a defect.


How does Sherman's Comfort Guarantee work?

If your new mattress simply isn't going to provide the quality sleep you were expecting, we can help you switch to something that will. Here are the full details: Comfort Guarantee
