My set I have a solid tub set (not matching; dryer is close, but not a match). I have had them in storage for past couple of years, but will post some pics soon, as I plan to start using them in my home. They are in great shape and fun to use.

THANKS BOB No, I know you and you're not like that. The remark that I am referring to was the one that said: its amazing that "a collector" could not figure it out on his own. I mistakingly asked for help from the guys here, because this has been, for the most part, a group of great guys who...

Yes, I am a collector That last remark about a "collector" not being able to find it out on my own was just a nasty, pissy remark. I KNOW my vintage machines and you do not know me well enough for this. Its always best to keep your mouth shut and have folks think you're an ass then to open...

THANKS!!!! Guys, thanks for your help. We are a multi-cat household and I think I got enough hair out of there to make another cat! Yuck. I guess this is reason #432 in the list of why I don't like front loaders .. no lint filter/removal. Will need to make it a point to pull that thing out...

My LG front-loader (8yrs old) will not drain. It attempts to drain, but then can't progress through the cycle because it knows it still has too much water in it to spin. Any suggestions as to where to start??? I hate to put her on the curb ... she has been a trooper ... came through 2 feet of...

Hey Kenny The pic of the washer that you posted looks just like the washer I have!!! It is one of the REAL solid tub fountain filter Hotpoints.

Bobload Bob could have fit all of those items into ALL of those dishwashers!!!

On Craigslist in Mississippi; pics look great ... wish I had room for it, but someone will treasure this. You may have to copy and paste to get to it as I am not too computer saavy. Hope you guys are all doing well!! Todd http://neworleans.craigslist.org/app/2207938124.html...

Who made it??? In about 1984-85 Sears sold a compact front load washer with no matching dryer. Does anyone remember this or am I losing my mind?

I know that my LG recirculates the water, but do any of the other front loaders do that? While I am not thrilled with the water level in my machine, I think that the strong recirculation spray does help it to get such good results.

Agitator question This is another 1-18 question, so I figured I would just tack it onto this thread. Did someone say that the first 1-18's had a jetcone agitator in them? I know that they are shorter, but would they fit/work?

I know this has been addressed before, but I missed it. Is it possible to use a magnet to be able to see the wash action on a calypso or do you have to bypass the lid switch? Thanks.

It's Twin I have the twin to this washer. It came out of a relative's home ... she did not have hookups in the house she bought, so it sat for over 25 years. The exterior is not as nice as the one on ebay, but she works fine. I need to start working on her exterior. Todd

UGH!!! After 3 months of that machine (brand new) I gave it to my sister and replaced it with a Bosch. I had a Bosch in the past and had gotten spoiled ... that Kitchenaid did not have the ability to clean my Bob-Loads. My sister, on the other hand, pre-washes her dishes so she loves it! Thats...

Hotpoint in Louisiana I do have a set; although the controls don't match between the washer & dryer. It has the spiral agitator and I find that the turnover is good. I like the feeling as it starts to throw out the water .. since there is no outer tub you feel the washer and its unlike most of...
