    Literature also has a 70(?) KM washer.  I liked the dark baskets on the lower end models.

    Thanks, Paul, I'm sure you're a perfect host and it's good to see new friends getting together.  You and Phil both have stunning collections, who wouldn't have a good time??  

  These are very exciting, congratulations on your auction win.    

    Down the AW memory hole, there are a couple of threads about these washers --   https://www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREAD.cgi?29279   https://www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREAD.cgi?78374    

  I've been with Amanda 6000, a few times, she lived with friends, early 90's.   They had a whole kitchen-full of almond Amandas. 

    Hope you are able to get this little guy, Mark.  It looks like it's in decent shape, at least very clean.

Spot them by the lower panel...   The Amana branded models had a light gray lower panel on both washer and dryer, actually was attractive with gray accent on the control panel.   Saw them sold under Maytag, Amana, GE (not sure what contractual obligation GE stumbled into to get these)  They...

    Good use of the top rack, those side rails are a bit dangerous for smaller items.  This baby looks mint, nice find.

    Can you post a picture of the broken/split cam?

This was fun -     Thanks for the FB scouring, that took some time.     Iowa is coughing up some goodies, two in Newton.  That A102 in Vegas is a cutie, always liked the BOL Highlander.   

    It's been a while since I've bought the Tide powder from Costco, certainly a good deal and it's about the only place we can find powdered detergent now.  I'll have to look next time I'm there but I've not seen the Kirkland powder for a while.  Perhaps it's selling out quickly or just not...

    I've bought a couple of these over the years for my mother, a prolific quilter of 30 years.  A few of her friends had them and she wanted to give one a try.  The first one she bought from a friend 20 years ago, had it serviced at the Singer shop and it worked OK.  It was in minty, like-new...

    Leon, that is excellent work.  Congrats on getting this Maytag worthy of "daily-driver" status.  The stainless bowl and new agitator really steal the show, at least for us over here.  It's interesting to see that fixed-vane agitator and how it moves the wash.   Well done, thanks for sharing!

    This ad always reminds me of "Yours Mine and Ours" (1968) with Lucille Ball as the mother of 12.  The first time I saw this movie, my heart leapt at the sight of her basement laundry.  Two sets of Maytags!     35 loads a week, ~ 14,000 loads in eight years.  Washing diapers for more than...

    The popcorn.  Air-popped and smeared with buttery flavor oil, the scent was better than the taste.

    This is your government, you have a voice and can use it to make your position (+ or -) known instantly.  There is a public meeting (you can tune in online) next week about the proposed new standards for washing machines.  In the public comment section you can submit and read letters...

    Had just read this thread and while in my travels yesterday, spotted a 24" belt drive in an antique store basement.   I always liked the 24" WP/KM machines, the matching 24" dryers came and went through the years but were even more rare to see in the wild.  I think I've seen less than a...

    Looks like a Westinghouse washer nearby.  No listing for it.  

    That's a fun curb-find.  I had one like this, passed on from Robert.  It did a great job on what it was able to wash.  I don't love the impeller-top-load-washing method so much either, but if it's one's only option..   I didn't dig into the proposed new regs too far, but it seems as...
