You should trot on out and buy them!

One wonders who will get what in the divorce....

consumer reports Consumer Reports bases their ratings on performance. That is why in the early 50's Norge sold so many washers. They did a terrific job washing, rinsing and spinning the clothes, but were undependable as far as servicing and breaking down all the time. Norge had some of the...

Maytag is good, so are Whirlpool, LG and Bosch. Frigidaire are truly the bottom of the heap. Had one myself for a while. Whatever you get you need at least middle of the line on up toward the top of the line to get the best cleaning.

LOL If you get another 10 years out of it it will be more than worth it, it will be a miracle!!!!

Grab it quick!!!!!

Correct me if I am wrong, but I would swear I have worked on a 1960 BOL model that was a pulsamatic before.

It was timed. All Frigidaire washers up until right before the end of the solid tub machines were timed fill. There were a few middle of the line and top of the line machines with a solid tub at the very end of the solid tub machines that were meter fill machines. They accomplished that much...

It sounds like this dishwasher is probably better than my Kenmore/Whirlpool made one. I know my Kenmore/LG made front load washer and dryer is certainly excellent.

This place reminds me of one that was here in Tulsa at one time in the early 70's. That was were I encountered nearly every rare and interesting washer and dryer mentioned in this forum. They did away with all of it before the 80's arrived though.
