    Thanks,rp2813 and Yogitunes. The clock is ticking! I figured that at least SOMEONE would want it for parts!

    Repair of 1986 GE Filter Flo washer

    I did...I have a thread running now. But so far, no takers. My new machine comes early next week and the delivery people will haul it away if no one has taken it by then. If I don't let them take it, then I may have to pay money to have it hauled away.

    I wanted to give the vintage washer enthusiasts first crack. I'll get it posted on Craig's List.

    Repair of 1986 GE Filter Flo washer

    Thanks, tolivac, I opted to buy the Speed Queen. Now I'm hoping someone wants the old Filter-Flo before the new washer comes early next week. Hate to send it to a land-fill, but that might be where it's going.

    addition to post I can’t revise my post, or delete it and make changes. So, tecnopolis, thanks for pointing this out. ADDITION to original post: The Filter Flo offered has an agitator designed to accept a Mini Basket and filter pan, which can be used independently of each other. The mini...

    Selling GE Filter Flo washer 1986 REVISED post

    I needed to revise my earlier post but could not do it as a Standard Member. I am looking to sell my 1986 GE Filter-Flo washing machine. I’m not sure how to go about it, other than just Craig’s List. But I would rather sell to an enthusiast here if anyone is interested. When I’ve sold other...

    I am looking to sell my 1986 GE Filter-Flo washing machine.

    I’m not sure how to go about it, other than just Craig’s List. But I would rather sell to an enthusiast here if anyone is interested. When I’ve sold other things on Craig’s List I’ve had some...weird experiences. It’s a simple model, WWA5800GALWA. No buttons, just dials. It is out of balance...

    Washers: please explain high efficiency advantages vs. agitator

    I would VERY much appreciate recommendations for top loaders to replace my 27 year old GE Filter-Flo. We are 2 empty nesters, so our use is not heavy. I don’t want a front loader. The laundry room is adjacent to the kitchen, so noise is a factor. It doesn’t need to be the quietest, but not...

    Repair of 1986 GE Filter Flo washer

    1) new washer recommendation 2) sell the Filter-Flo? Thanks for all your input. I have talked it over with my husband, and he does not want to fix it. He said though given all these facts he believes it can be fixed, that’s for an enthusiast who has all the tools. The loose water pipe would...

    Repair of 1986 GE Filter Flo washer

    Thanks! I may have the wrong word. I thought snubbers was the word the old repairman used. Someone on another forum mentioned “yoke”? There are 4 of them, and they are rubber. It’s not the legs. It’s something that affects how the tub spins. When they are out of whack, if you spin the tub (with...

    Repair of 1986 GE Filter Flo washer

    We have a GE Filter Flo we bought in 1986. There is no indication of model number, and who knows where the manual went. It’s worked fine for 27 years, but became more and more unbalanced. You had to lean on it during the spin cycle to stop it walking across the floor. Every now and then my...
