Hello automatic washer My name is Andrew I am one of the newer members of this fine website. My parents will soon be buying a new washer and dryer for the new laundry room they have. My mom is not the type of person who would do well with an he top loader or front loader. She found a ge top...

I have a larger whirlpool dryer just like the seconde one posted. A good dryer but the one in pic looks abused. -andrew

First vintage washer I remember seeing was gram and grampas late 1970's 70 series washer. I would love to help grandma do the wash! I think it had three knobs. One on the left was water level, 5 settings? 4 wash cycle or maybe 5. I do know that it had a hot-warm temp setting. The washer also...

Yup Same here found this website at 16. Finnaly joined this year and, I have loved washers from the time I was 1 years old. Watching mom do the wash in the Whirlpool dd washer and dryer. And I loved grandma's Kenmore beltdrive. a 1977? 78 79 or 1980. This was a 70 series washer with 5 water...

Actualy on a second look, did you get the set in 93 or are they 93?

Almost the same as the first set my mum had. Yours are just a few years younger. Did something happen to the washer? Ours was leaking oil when mum got rid of it 04. -Andrew

OK I see I did not know that whirlpool made dd before 1985. The first run was on the smaller washers?

Yes that is normal for the early run dd washer. I think it was not until 1987 that they changed to a neutral drain.

The washer ax6245v is very like the 88 whirlpool my mom and dad had. I would bet that the washer we had was just like the 1991 roper.

Wow lots of new members, I also just found this site. I always loved watching the washer and dryers for as long as I can remeber. My first favorite was the Kenmore belt drive my grandmother had. That was such a good washer, all it needed was a timer! Cant wait to get my hands on belt drive! Or...

Oh no it is never fun not haveing a working washer, Im not tech guy but it sounds like maybe the motor went bad? Or maybe the winding im not sure if speedqueen motors have that part or not?

Nice Dryer Looks like the Kenmore 80 series dryer I grew up with, this will be a great dryer.

I am full of questions tonight, but something that I have been wondering about is the belt drives wash motion, I've dubbed it the Kenmore Twitch! While watching various videos of Kenmores and Whirlpools doing there thing, ive noticed the tub seems to torque /rotate with every sweep of the...

Thanks guys COLDSPOT66 - No, you have not confused me at all, I understood it all (seriously) Thanks to both of you for a speedy, and concise reply. It seems like the design makes a lot more sense than the Kenmore BD, Westinghouse, and Fridge designs (in terms of pumping "losses" on the...

Hey Guys, I've been wondering lately, what's the use of the clutch on the Filter Flo's? I notice that also on the Versatronic's they had a "Varriable Speed Clutch", and other GE's had a one, two, three, or four speed clutch. Why couldn't GE just have a direct connection from the motor (and slow...

No, Don't get it and give it to me! That machine is beautiful, my Nanny had one from 76', turq aqitator, golden exterior. That is worth getting, even if you cannot hook it up and use it.

While looking at the photo of the day, I realized the McClary doesn't look GE at all, and the tub looks like it is from a Norge. I am pretty sure, thought I could be wrong, McClary was owned by GE? What's the history on them anyway?

That's Cheating Well, Since you are indeed Canadian, you will know of Nova Scotia! Halifax to be precise.

Hey Guys, I'm new to this forum. I am 18, and in Canada (on the East coast in a province no ones heard of!). I have ALWAYS had a fascination with appliances, especially Washing Machines and Dishwashers, and I should be starting a collection very soon. My Favorites are the Kenmore Belt Drives...
