my thanks to you all for your advice and encouragement. I have a busy work week ahead of me, but when I get settled and back to my normal work schedule, I will have more free time for tinkering and laundry adventurings. I shall heed the wisdom offered up here and see where it gets me. Again, I...

a HOT water soak Might just do the trick. It doesn't feel like anything hard water related. It gets all slimy when it's wet. I ran a load through it today. So, on my next short work day this week, after work I will give your advice a go, hippiedoll. I did notice today when the spin cycle...

Turquoisedude, you are the only person who has expressed interest. But I wonder what shipping to you in Canada will cost.. It is a very heavy mixer. Would you want the bowls and attachments as well? I would be very happy if we can figure out a way to get this to you

It came from an estate seller. I just could not imagine what would have been its fate if I had walked away simply because of color and lack of lighted panel. It came with those awesome booklets, which I could not be more happy about. The original owner has written their purchase date on it. I...

Not too long ago there was a member here, who I believe is a collecter of mixers,who posted something mentioning a Dormeyer mixer. I currently have one and am looking to re-home it, or at least the bowls, beaters, and grinder attachmemt. The mixer was given to me. I have never powered it on due...

I have finally finished moving!We were able to have Christmas in our new home. I was so worried that I would still be moving, but I got it done. And as an extra amazing gift to me, I found an A608 washing machine for $75 on Friday. It is almond and does not have a lighted panel to match my...

Whoa.. I have never seen anything like that before. I've seen some beautiful 40" ranges but never a dishwasher combo! I am so intrigued. I hope you find a buyer for this. I wish I could re-home it myself.

Well thanks again. I followed your instructions with the dryer and it was all very easy for me to do. I rather enjoyed it, actually. Once I was in there I started looking around at what else I could get my hands on! I will do as you say with the washer and see where I get with it

I didn't have any interest in that washer. I currently have this one. Although, I am not sure if it should / could be fixed. It leaks from the top left during the wash cycle. I noticed the water coming out in am erratic way during filling. It came with the house I am moving i to and I ran one...

During cleaning, I noticed this felty ring is 1) coming away from the metal and 2) super hairy and I can't really get the fuzz off

I followed some very simple and detailed instructions to get this far.. guys, you have been a huge help. I was nervous at first but looky here! I got in there and it really is no big deal. Still not touching any electrical, but defiitely am able to give this girl a really nice cleaning. I even...

obligatory Tag shot Well I don't have her moved into the basement yet, but I have a few photos here. Now that I am able to really look over the shell, it looks pretty good. There are a few scratches, one chip in the enamel, anf over all built up gunk around controls and trim due to lack of...

Just the dryer. The washer she is selling was nothing spectacular or interesting. All white everythings (controls and panel) and just in bad shape. Not even sure what brand. Looked to me like every other used washer up for sale on CL or in used appliance shops

This is EXTREMELY helpful. I saved the link as well as your recommendations for specific areas. I can do this. Nothing too intimidating there. Just careful deliberate actions. Now as far as a technical rebuild.. that would be far out of my comfort zone. BuT I am a woman who enjoys a challenge as...
