Tell us about your collection
-I live in an apartment house. Unfortuneately, not enough room for me to have my favorite washers.
What are your dream machines yet to be found?
-GM Frigidaire (WCI) Washer with an infinite 5 water level selector and a (TOL) Westinghouse (1968-1970) washer that has the SLOWER agitating speed with a 600-PLUS spin speed , the NON-recirulating lint-filtering system, plus a super capacity NON-indexing washtub.
What are your earliest and favorite appliance memories?
-Watching the agitation of my parents late 1960s avocado green Westinghouse TL washer with one of the greatest agitators ever designed, the (2-in-1)SWIRL-Ramp Agitator in light-seagreen color.
What is the history of appliances you have owned?
-
Have you ever worked on, repaired and/or restored any major appliances?
-Not yet. I only was able to change the agitator and lint filter of a second hand GE washer I brought. I switched the 4-vane white Activator for the 8-vane turquoise one and used Hotpoints lint filter ring. I wanted to be able to see it wash and not interfer with the filtering.
