I changed my mind about it. Want keep this over the whirlpool. asked the webmaster to take this listing down l

Letting a couple of my machines go. I would much rather this go to a serious collector who is a Kenmore fan instead of just randomly selling it on marketplace or OfferUp. Not looking to get a lot of money for this machine at all. I can't ship or deliver. Unfortunately the buyer will have to come...

Did you keep the old inner tub ? I like that pattern better than the last one

Just look how well detergent and bleach did in the USA, I can't speak for other places since the advent of the top loading automatic washer from the '40s up until recently. Sanitation don't really mean too much when you have to handle the clothes anyway. So whatever benefit sanitation has is...

You're welcome.

Had this commercial Whirlpool VMW like your Maytag machine last year and used FOCA. Turned out alright.

Hardly Chet. If you noticed, Kenmore agitators mostly had their vanes on the bottom. Whirlpool used that Surgilator throughout the belt drive run and made modifications to it over the years to make it even more effective. By the time the Double Duty came out in 1978 it smoked the DAA and was...

IDK. There certainly is more continuous controlled rollover and not as much splash with the DD, and not as much lateral movement either compared to a belt drive. The BD Penta Swirl for example can get the load to slosh and splash and rock the water. It can get a little tempest going on in that...

I can agree with Marky Mark about the Penta Swirl. I personally think it's a great agitator and I like it even more than the Double Duty which is also a great performer. Huge loads do hinder it's roll over some but that is true for most agitators. It's very effective in sloshing the clothes...

The super surgilator with the extended fins was in the standard capacity and the 24-in models

The old venerable belt drive has a hanging suspension but with the 500 to 515 RPM spin. Not much to worry the metal outer tub and the heavily built cabinet if it goes kablooey.

Even the lid instructions on the Maytag commercial. Tell you this about using the normal cycle. How it works with your selection for optimal performance. I forget exactly what it says but that's the gist of it. In other words, it overrides what you choose. It's the way they word it without being...

Chet where are the minutes?

Not trying to be snarky here but does the European approach eliminate every stain on clothing? Since you're using chemicals to wash clothes anyway, what's the difference if you use spray treatments?

I had that machine and it is true it will over ride the water level on the Normal cycle. It will also fill to a lower water level if you open the lid during the rinse fill even if you have it set to a higher level. These manufacturers are playing games with us....
