Found the problem! I found that one of the coils had broken off so I guess that probably would not let the others reach full heat. Called my local parts store and got a new one. Thanks all

Just got a pair of machines and in the pair I got a A207S. Machine looks good except for the agitator which looks like it is missing something. Also there are hard water deposits on the tub. Any tricks on getting these cleaned off? If the agitator is wrong does anyone know of somewhere where I...

Just wondered what dryers people prefer...gas or electric? I've only had electric mainly because my mother had always said gas dryers get to hot and can ruin cloths. The house I'm in now has both electric and gas hook up for a dryer and I'm getting ready to get the matching dryer for my...

Voice of Music Here is a picture of my voice of music console that I had completey restored. When i got it at a estate sale it had had a hard life. The lid prop was frozen and the turn table didn't work and it would hardly pick up any stations. I had it completely refinished with the original...
