You're gonna love 'em!!! Jerry Gay

That's the first automatic . . . . . . we had when I was growing up. It lasted through three children for 15 years. A great machine. Jerry Gay

Our first dishwasher . . . . . . was a GE portable with the bowtie impeller. That machine could clean anything you put in it. The impeller was remarkable. However, it could be heard on the next planet when it was running. But CLEAN it could. Loved it. Jerry Gay Winston-Salem, NC

I've had one for 15 years . . . Love it!!! It's gas fired and has worked beautifully the entire time. The tub rotation reverses every few minutes, thus there's no tangling or balling up of the clothing. This is especially useful when drying bedsheets. I am unable to include a picture...

I have a . . . . . . Speed Queen front loader which is a real workhorse.  It cleans well and spins at 1400 RPM in the final spin.   I'm in Winston-Salem.   Jerry Gay

That's close to the . . . . . . first dishwasher we ever had.  It did a great job cleaning, but it could be heard in the next county.  That bowtie impeller really did its job.   Jerry Gay

The only person I knew . . . . . .  that had a suds saver machine (Kenmore) lived on a farm and had well water.  They had 3 or 4 children, and the suds saver mechanism helped to keep the well from running dry in the dry summers.  She told me she would even adjust the timer knob so she could...

Our first dishwasher . . . . . .  was a GE portable, the one with the bow tie impeller.  It did a great job of cleaning the dishes.  The only problem was it could be heard in the next county when it was running.   After many years of excellent service, it was replaced with a Maytag built-in...

Yeah, Joe. Thanks for posting. It was a fun time and we got a lot done.   Thoroughly enjoyed seeing everyone.   Jerry Gay

I bought a . . . . . . Speed Queen front load machine at the wash-in in Beltsville, MD from the guru of washing machines.  It performs flawlessly.  I am amazed that there is no vibration when it goes into its fast spin.  It's been a great deal for me.   Jerry Gay

Thor.  (We had one.)

That's the washer we got . . . . . . in the late 1940's or early 1950's after our Thor retired.  The Maytag was with us for 16 years with no problems whatsoever until it died.  Great machine.   Jerry Gay

Welcome Xavier.  I'm in Winston-Salem.  There are two of us here.   It's a fine site.  Most any question can get answered here.   Jerry Gay

Don't forget . . . . . . Fisher &  Paykel.  (Hope I spelled it right.)  I've had one for like 16 years with no problems.   Jerry Gay
