Laundry piling up again? Take this quick quiz to discover your laundry personality and see what your habits say about your routine at home.

<p>Laundry has a way of sneaking up on people. One day it&rsquo;s a manageable pile, the next it&rsquo;s a full situation that somehow took over the entire room.</p>
<p>Some households run like a well-oiled laundry machine. Others&hellip; wait until it&rsquo;s absolutely necessary. The truth is, everyone has their own rhythm, and our experts see every version of it play out.</p>
<p>So where do you fall? Let&rsquo;s find out.</p>

<h2>Q1: It&rsquo;s laundry day. What&rsquo;s your approach?</h2>
<p><strong>A.</strong> I&rsquo;ve already sorted everything and started early so nothing has a chance to pile up</p>
<p><strong>B.</strong> I&rsquo;ll get to it later and try to power through a couple loads at once</p>
<p><strong>C.</strong> I wait until I need something specific, then it becomes urgent</p>
<h2>Q2: How do you handle sorting clothes?</h2>
<p><strong>A.</strong> Lights, darks, delicates&hellip; it helps everything last longer and look better</p>
<p><strong>B.</strong> I separate the obvious stuff, like towels or heavy items, and keep it simple</p>
<p><strong>C.</strong> It all goes in together and I trust the washer to figure it out</p>

<h2>Q3: The washer just finished. Now what?</h2>
<p><strong>A.</strong> I move it right away to keep things fresh and avoid wrinkles setting in</p>
<p><strong>B.</strong> I switch it when I remember, but try not to let it sit too long</p>
<p><strong>C.</strong> I forget about it and usually end up running it again</p>
<h2>Q4: Folding clothes is&hellip;</h2>
<p><strong>A.</strong> Part of the routine and worth it to keep everything organized</p>
<p><strong>B.</strong> Something I&rsquo;ll get to eventually&hellip; it might stay in the basket for a bit</p>
<p><strong>C.</strong> Optional. If it&rsquo;s clean, that&rsquo;s a win</p>

What’s Your Laundry Personality?

Reset your refrigerator with simple checks that help reduce forgotten food, improve airflow, protect produce, and keep groceries easy to find.

<p>Nothing ruins a good grocery haul faster than finding wilted greens, mystery leftovers, or a fridge shelf that feels colder in one spot than another. The good news? A refrigerator reset doesn&rsquo;t need to be a full cleanout or a big project.</p>
<p>That&rsquo;s why our experts at&nbsp;Jim’s Appliances of Inman put together a quick checklist you can use every month or so to keep your fridge easier to organize, easier to use, and better at keeping food fresh.</p>
<h2><i class="fa-solid fa-square-check"></i> Confirm the Temperature Setting</h2>
<p>Your refrigerator and freezer should be set to the right temperatures. For most homes, the refrigerator should be around 37&deg;F to 39&deg;F, and the freezer should be around 0&deg;F.</p>
<p>It&rsquo;s a small step, but it makes a difference. When the temperature is in the sweet spot, the fridge works better and your food stands a better chance of staying fresh until you&rsquo;re ready for it.</p>
<h2><i class="fa-solid fa-square-check"></i> Clear the Airflow Vents</h2>
<p>Take a look at the vents and clear away any food containers, bags, or tall items that may be covering them. Cool air needs room to move through the refrigerator, especially around the back and sides.</p>
<p>If items are pushed tight against the vents, shift them forward or move them to another shelf. A bit of breathing room helps the fridge cool more evenly from top to bottom.</p>
<p><img alt="A thermometer takes the temperature of the fridge. " src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/assets/blog/blog_appliances/Q2_2026/Appl_refrigerator-reset-checklist/Appl_refrigerator-reset-checklist_1.jpg" /></p>
<h2><i class="fa-solid fa-square-check"></i> Give Shelves Some Breathing Room</h2>
<p>Your shelves can be full, but they shouldn&rsquo;t be packed tightly. A stocked fridge is fine, but food should not be crammed in so closely that cold air has nowhere to move.</p>
<p>Sliding a few things forward, grouping similar foods, and clearing out those old leftovers in the back can help. We&rsquo;re not aiming for a magazine-worthy fridge, just one that&rsquo;s easy to see, easy to use, and cools like it should.</p>
<h2><i class="fa-solid fa-square-check"></i> Sort the Door Storage</h2>
<p>The fridge door is usually the warmest spot, since it gets a blast of room air every time you open it. It&rsquo;s best for things that don&rsquo;t mind a little temperature swing.</p>
<p>Condiments, dressings, and drinks are usually happy on the door. Milk, eggs, and anything that needs steady cold are better off on the main shelves.</p>
<h2><i class="fa-solid fa-square-check"></i> Adjust the Produce Drawers</h2>
<p>Take a quick look at how your produce drawers are set up for the fruits and vegetables you actually buy. If your drawers have humidity controls, use them to help keep produce fresher for longer.</p>
<p>Leafy greens and most veggies like a bit more humidity. Fruits that ripen and give off gas, like apples or pears, are happier when they&rsquo;re kept away from delicate veggies if you can swing it.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: 1.5em;"><img alt="A young woman reaches into her fridge at home." src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/assets/blog/blog_appliances/Q2_2026/Appl_refrigerator-reset-checklist/Appl_refrigerator-reset-checklist_2.jpg" /></p>
<h2><i class="fa-solid fa-square-check"></i> Bring Older Items Forward</span></p></h2>
<p>Older leftovers, open jars, and half-used ingredients should be easy to see. When these items get pushed to the back, they are more likely to be forgotten until they are no longer usable.</p>
<p>Anything that needs to be used soon can move to the front. If something&rsquo;s clearly past its prime, it&rsquo;s time to say goodbye.</p>
<p>Grouping similar open items together makes it easier to scan the fridge before meals or grocery runs.</p>
<h2><i class="fa-solid fa-square-check"></i> Look Over the Door Seal</h2>
<p>The refrigerator door should close fully and seal tightly. Even a small gap can let cool air escape, which makes the fridge work harder than it needs to.</p>
<p>Sometimes a container, drawer, or bulky package is the culprit. A quick look can help you spot anything blocking the door, and a glance at the seal can show whether it&rsquo;s sitting flat against the frame.</p>
<h2>Keep the Freshness Going</h2>
<p>A quick <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://www.jimsappliancesofinman.com/catalog/refrigeration" target="_blank">fridge</a></span> reset is one of those little habits that can make the whole kitchen feel a bit more manageable. Less digging, fewer mystery containers, and a better chance that the food you bought actually gets used.</p>
<p>If you have questions about fridge storage, temperature settings, or whether it&rsquo;s time for a new fridge, our experts at&nbsp;Jim’s Appliances of Inman are always happy to chat. Stop by anytime to <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://www.jimsappliancesofinman.com/contacts" target="_blank">ask questions</a></span> or shop options that fit all kinds of homes and kitchen routines.</p>

7 Small Fridge Checks That Help Food Last Longer

Appliances that adapt to your routine can make everyday life easier. Learn how flexible features help you handle changing schedules, loads, and meals.

<p>Some weeks, the fridge is packed. Other weeks, it&rsquo;s mostly empty. Laundry piles up fast, then suddenly it&rsquo;s just a small load here and there. Dinner might be a full spread one night and something quick the next.</p>
<p>Homes don&rsquo;t run on a set routine, and they&rsquo;re not meant to.</p>
<p>That&rsquo;s why we&rsquo;re seeing more folks look for appliances that can roll with the punches. Rather than sticking to one set way of doing things, these options are designed to keep up as our routines shift. Around here at Jim’s Appliances of Inman, we&rsquo;ve noticed a real trend toward appliances that just feel easier to live with, especially as life keeps throwing us curveballs.</p>
<p><img alt="A grandmother and her granddaughter unload an oven together." src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/assets/blog/blog_appliances/Q2_2026/Appl_flexible-home-appliances/Appl_flexible-home-appliances_1.jpg" /></p>
<h2>What Does a &ldquo;Flexible&rdquo; Appliance Mean?</h2>
<p>Schedules change. Grocery habits shift. Some days are quiet, others feel nonstop. Appliances that can keep up tend to stand out pretty quickly.</p>
<p>Basically, a flexible appliance is one that handles whatever you throw at it&mdash;no hacks or workarounds needed. Maybe that&rsquo;s shelves that move around, settings that know when you&rsquo;re doing a tiny load or a mountain of laundry, or features that let us go from a quick tidy-up to a deep clean without missing a beat.</p>
<p>It&rsquo;s not about having a million buttons or settings. It&rsquo;s about having the right options ready when you actually need them.</p>
<p>Most of us don&rsquo;t run our homes on a strict schedule, and the best appliances seem to get that. They fit into our routines, not the other way around.</p>
<h2>Refrigeration That Adjusts to You</h2>
<p>If you peek inside the fridge on a Monday versus a Friday, it&rsquo;s almost like looking at two different worlds. That&rsquo;s why having storage that can change along with us really comes in handy.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Shelves and bins that actually move</strong>: It&rsquo;s a lot easier to fit that surprise party platter or a week&rsquo;s worth of groceries when you can slide things around, instead of playing fridge Tetris every time.</li>
<li><strong>Compartments that switch roles</strong>: Some spots can go from fridge to freezer, so you get more control when our storage needs change&mdash;like when ice cream suddenly becomes a food group.</li>
<li><strong>Seeing what you actually have</strong>: When things aren&rsquo;t buried under leftovers or mystery containers, it&rsquo;s a lot easier to use up what&rsquo;s there before it turns into a science experiment.</li>
<li><strong>Fits real shopping habits</strong>: Whether it&rsquo;s a big weekly trip or smaller runs throughout the week, the layout can adjust without feeling cramped or underused.</li>
</ul>

<p>Laundry doesn&rsquo;t follow a pattern for most households. Some days it&rsquo;s a quick refresh, other times it&rsquo;s catching up on everything at once.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Load size flexibility</strong>: Small loads don&rsquo;t feel like a waste, and big ones don&rsquo;t feel like a wrestling match to fit in.</li>
<li><strong>Cycle options that match the load</strong>: Quick cycles, deeper cleaning settings, and everything in between help us pick what actually makes sense for the day.</li>
<li><strong>Time-saving when needed</strong>: Shorter cycles help us stay on top of laundry during those busy weeks.</li>
<li><strong>Handles a mix of fabrics</strong>: Everyday clothes, heavier items, and those bulky pieces can all go in together, no special tricks required.</li>
</ul>
<p>This kind of setup makes it easier to keep laundry moving along without overthinking every single load.</p>
<h2>Cooking That Adapts to the Moment</h2>
<p>Cooking needs can shift fast. One night it&rsquo;s a simple dinner, the next it&rsquo;s a full spread. Having an appliance that can handle both without extra effort really makes a difference.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Multiple cooking modes in one place</strong>: Baking, roasting, and broiling all in one spot give us flexibility without needing a kitchen full of gadgets.</li>
<li><strong>Better control across meals</strong>: Lower, slower cooking for some dishes and higher heat for others helps us get more consistent results, no matter what&rsquo;s on the menu.</li>
<li><strong>Room to scale up or down</strong>: Whether we&rsquo;re cooking for one or feeding a crowd, the space can expand or shrink without feeling cramped.</li>
<li><strong>Supports everyday and special occasions</strong>: Quick meals and those more involved recipes can both happen in the same spot.</li>
</ul>
<p>It keeps things simple during the week, but still gives you the range to do more when you want to.</p>

<h2>Why This Trend Matters</h2>
<p>Life at home isn&rsquo;t one-size-fits-all, and it rarely stays the same for long. Appliances that can adjust along the way help take some of the friction out of daily tasks.</p>
<p>One of the biggest advantages is how it takes the pressure off all those routine decisions. You don&rsquo;t have to plan everything perfectly or load things a certain way just to make it work. Instead, you can use your appliances more naturally, based on what the day actually looks like.</p>
<p>There&rsquo;s also a practical side to it. When one appliance can take on multiple roles or adjust its capacity, it helps u get more out of the space you already have, no extra gadgets required.</p>
<p>At the end of the day, this shift isn&rsquo;t about having more features. It&rsquo;s about having appliances that fit into real life a little better, even when that life looks different from week to week.</p>
<h2>Built for Real Life, Not a Routine</h2>
<p>When appliances can adapt to different needs, everyday tasks start to feel less rigid. You&rsquo;re not working around limitations or trying to plan everything perfectly just to make things work.</p>
<p>Trying out features like <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://www.jimsappliancesofinman.com/slug" target="_blank">adjustable storage</a></span>, different cycle options, or <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://www.jimsappliancesofinman.com/catalog/ranges" target="_blank">multi-use cooking modes</a></span> can make a real difference over time. And if things still feel like a constant workaround, our team at&nbsp;Jim’s Appliances of Inman is always here to help <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://www.jimsappliancesofinman.com/contacts" target="_blank">answer questions</a></span> and walk through options that might fit your routine a little better.

The Secret to a Home That Actually Keeps Up with You

First time using an induction cooktop? Learn what mistakes to avoid so cooking feels faster, smoother, and less frustrating from the start.

<p>Cooking that first meal on an induction cooktop can feel a bit like the kitchen decided to play by new rules while you weren&rsquo;t looking. The knobs and pans are the same, the recipe is still an old favorite, but suddenly the timing is just a little off.</p>
<p>That learning curve is totally normal! Induction has its own rhythm, but once you get the hang of it, everyday meals can actually feel a lot smoother and easier to control. If you&rsquo;re still figuring things out, our folks at&nbsp;Jim’s Appliances of Inman are always around to help make the switch less confusing.</p>
<p><img alt=" finger touches an induction cooktop at home." src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/assets/blog/blog_appliances/Q2_2026/Appl_common-induction-mistakes-explained/Appl_common-induction-mistakes-explained_1.jpg" /></p>
<h2>Mistake #1: Expecting Heat to Behave the Same Way</h2>
<p>One of the biggest surprises with induction is expecting it to behave just like gas or electric. Induction heats the pan itself, not the burner underneath, so things can get hot in a hurry. Your pots and pans reach temperature fast, and turning the heat up or down actually makes a difference right away.</p>
<p>This can throw off your usual kitchen rhythm at first. Water boils before you&rsquo;re ready, oil heats up in a flash, and that pan you used to wait on is suddenly ready to go. The upside? That speed and control is exactly what makes induction so handy once you get used to it.</p>
<h2>Mistake #2: Starting Too Hot</h2>
<p>With induction, you usually don&rsquo;t need to crank the heat as high as you might on gas or electric. A lower or medium setting is often plenty, especially for things like eggs, pancakes, or sauces that like to brown before you&rsquo;re ready. Starting lower and turning up the heat only if you need to can make the whole cooktop feel a lot more manageable.</p>
<p><img alt="A pan of mixed veggies cooks on an induction cooktop." src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/assets/blog/blog_appliances/Q2_2026/Appl_common-induction-mistakes-explained/Appl_common-induction-mistakes-explained_2.jpg" /></p>
<h2>Mistake #3: Using the Wrong Cookware</h2>
<p>Not every pot or pan from your old stove will work on induction. Since induction needs a magnetic connection, the pan itself has to be compatible. If it isn&rsquo;t, the burner might not turn on, or things might heat unevenly.</p>
<p>The easiest way to check is with a fridge magnet. If it sticks to the bottom of the pan, you&rsquo;re in business. A flat bottom helps too, since it gives better contact with the cooktop. Before you blame the stove, it&rsquo;s worth checking the pans first.</p>
<h2>Mistake #4: Walking Away Too Soon</h2>
<p>Induction responds quickly, so those first few meals are a good time to keep an eye on things. No need to hover like a hawk, but your usual timing might be a little off at first. Water boils before you expect, sauces need a stir sooner, and food is ready to flip before you know it. If you treat those first tries as a quick learning phase, you&rsquo;ll get the hang of it in no time.</p>
<h2>When the Cooktop Finally Clicks</h2>
<p>The best part about induction is how quickly it goes from feeling unfamiliar to just another part of your kitchen routine. One week it&rsquo;s all new, and before you know it, you&rsquo;re breezing through busy weeknights and lazy Sunday breakfasts like a pro.</p>
<p>If you have questions about <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://www.jimsappliancesofinman.com/catalog/cooking" target="_blank">induction</a></span> cooking, the folks at&nbsp;Jim’s Appliances of Inman are always happy to chat.

10 Bean Recipes That Might Change the Way You Think About Beans

Summer routines can put extra pressure on refrigerator space. Learn why a second refrigerator becomes a practical seasonal solution.

<p>Every season has that one household item that suddenly becomes everyone's favorite. In winter, it might be a cozy blanket. In summer, it's often whatever is keeping drinks cold after a long day outside. As temperatures rise, daily routines tend to shift. Schedules get busier, weekends fill up faster, and the kitchen often becomes a hub of activity between meals, snacks, and everything in between. Some seasonal habits come and go, while others quietly become part of everyday life.</p>
<p>For homeowners exploring ways to make summer routines a little easier, the experts at&nbsp;Jim’s Appliances of Inman can help identify appliance solutions that fit the way real households live.</p>
<p><img alt="A top-freezer refrigerator sits closed in a home garage." src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/assets/blog/blog_appliances/Q3_2026/Appl_second-fridge-benefits_1.jpg" /></p>
<h2>Summer Changes How Families Use Their Refrigerators</h2>
<p>Summer routines look a lot different than they do during the rest of the year. Kids are home more often, outdoor activities fill the calendar, and cold drinks seem to disappear faster than ever. As daily habits shift, many households find themselves reaching for refrigerator space more often and running out of it much sooner.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Grab-and-Go Becomes the Norm</strong>: Between camps, practices, pool days, and road trips, refrigerators often become the home base for quick snacks, packed lunches, and ready-to-go drinks.</li>
<li><strong>Cold Beverages Take Over</strong>: Water bottles, sports drinks, juice boxes, and sparkling beverages can quickly claim shelf space that normally holds everyday groceries.</li>
<li><strong>Fresh Foods Need More Room</strong>: Summer favorites like watermelon, berries, grapes, and other seasonal produce often require more refrigeration than people expect.</li>
<li><strong>Everyone's Opening the Door</strong>: With family members coming and going throughout the day, refrigerators see more traffic, making organization and storage space increasingly important.</li>
</ul>
<h2>How a Second Refrigerator Earns Its Space in Summer</h2>
<p>A second refrigerator isn't always about adding more storage. During summer, it's often about creating dedicated space for the items that seem to multiply at this time of year. By giving beverages, produce, and overflow groceries a home of their own, many households find it easier to keep the main kitchen refrigerator organized and accessible.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>The Beverage Hub</strong>: Water bottles, sports drinks, sparkling beverages, and juice boxes can quickly take over refrigerator shelves. A second refrigerator gives those items a dedicated home, freeing up space for everyday groceries.</li>
<li><strong>The Produce Overflow Zone</strong>: Summer is prime season for watermelon, berries, grapes, and other fresh produce. Extra refrigeration space makes it easier to stock up without overcrowding the kitchen refrigerator.</li>
<li><strong>The Meal Prep Assistant</strong>: From packed lunches and picnic foods to ingredients for weeknight dinners, a second refrigerator can help keep busy summer meal planning organized.</li>
<li><strong>The Overflow Solution</strong>: Large grocery trips, holiday weekends, and unexpected visitors can all put pressure on refrigerator space. Having extra cold storage available provides flexibility when the kitchen refrigerator reaches capacity.</li>
</ul>
<p>
<figure class="dsg-bg-box">
  <blockquote>
<strong>Pro Tip:</strong>
<br>
Many homeowners find that assigning a specific purpose to a second refrigerator, such as beverages, produce, or grocery overflow, makes it easier to stay organized than using it as a catch-all storage space.
  </blockquote>
</figure>
</p>
<p><img alt="A top-freezer refrigerator is open showing a lot of beverages in a home garage." src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/assets/blog/blog_appliances/Q3_2026/Appl_second-fridge-benefits_2.jpg" /></p>
<h2>Why Garage Refrigerators Become Summer Workhorses</h2>
<p>For many homeowners, the second refrigerator isn't tucked away in a basement or utility room. It's right in the garage, close to where summer activities happen. Whether it's supporting backyard cookouts, keeping drinks within easy reach, or handling overflow groceries, a garage refrigerator often becomes one of the most-used appliances of the season.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Closer to Outdoor Living</strong>: When people are spending more time outside, having cold drinks and snacks nearby can be more convenient than making repeated trips through the kitchen.</li>
<li><strong>Less Traffic Through the House</strong>: Kids coming in from the backyard, neighbors stopping by, or family members grabbing a drink can all access refreshments without crowding the kitchen.</li>
<li><strong>A Natural Spot for Grilling Essentials</strong>: Marinades, burger toppings, beverages, and other cookout staples can stay organized in one location, making outdoor meal prep easier.</li>
<li><strong>Ready for Busy Weekends</strong>: From holiday gatherings to family visits, a garage refrigerator provides flexible storage that's easy to access when the house is full and the schedule is packed.</li>
</ul>
<p>
<figure class="dsg-bg-box">
  <blockquote>
<strong>Pro Tip:</strong>
<br>
If a refrigerator is stored in the garage, be sure to check that it's designed to perform in the temperature conditions of that space.
  </blockquote>
</figure>
</p>
<h2>Entertaining Without the Refrigerator Shuffle</h2>
<p>Summer may not be all about hosting, but it does tend to bring more opportunities for gathering! From holiday cookouts and graduation parties to casual evenings on the patio, extra guests often mean extra food and drinks. That's when a second refrigerator can help take some of the pressure off the kitchen.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Keep Drinks Separate from Food</strong>: Storing beverages in a second refrigerator frees up valuable shelf space for meal ingredients, side dishes, and desserts.</li>
<li><strong>Prep Ahead with Confidence</strong>: Party trays, marinated meats, and make-ahead dishes can be refrigerated days in advance without forcing a complete refrigerator reorganization.</li>
<li><strong>Make Hosting More Convenient</strong>: Guests can grab a drink or refill a cooler without constantly opening the main kitchen refrigerator.</li>
<li><strong>Handle Leftovers with Ease</strong>: After the gathering ends, extra refrigeration space provides room for leftovers, desserts, and take-home containers.</li>
</ul>
<p><img alt="A woman pulls a bottle of mustard out of her fridge in a garage." src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/assets/blog/blog_appliances/Q3_2026/Appl_second-fridge-benefits_3.jpg" /></p>
<h2>Features That Make a Second Refrigerator Practical</h2>
<p>Not every second refrigerator serves the same purpose. Some are dedicated beverage stations, while others handle produce, meal prep ingredients, or grocery overflow. The most useful models are often the ones that offer enough flexibility to adapt as summer needs change.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Adjustable Shelving</strong>: Flexible shelf configurations make it easier to accommodate everything from beverage cases to large platters and oversized produce.</li>
<li><strong>Generous Door Storage</strong>: Frequently used items like bottled drinks, condiments, and grab-and-go snacks can stay organized and within easy reach.</li>
<li><strong>Large-Capacity Interiors</strong>: Extra room comes in handy during holiday weekends, bulk grocery trips, and busy stretches when refrigerator demand is at its highest.</li>
<li><strong>Flexible Placement Options</strong>: Whether it's located in a garage, basement, utility room, or entertaining space, a second refrigerator works best when it's convenient for your household's routine.</li>
</ul>
<h2>The Unexpected Summer MVP</h2>
<p>Not every useful appliance gets the spotlight. Some simply make daily life easier in ways that become more noticeable when schedules get busy and routines start shifting with the season.</p>
<p>Whether questions involve <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://www.jimsappliancesofinman.com/catalog/refrigeration" target="_blank">refrigeration</a></span> needs, appliance placement, or finding the right fit for a particular space, the experts at&nbsp;Jim’s Appliances of Inman are always <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://www.jimsappliancesofinman.com/contacts" target="_blank">available to help</a></span>!
