Aferim! Wonderful skill and ingenuity. How did you achieve these talents?    

Indeed beautiful. Has the same basic backsplash design as the '58 Unimatic.   Those deep-well fryers/slow cooker crock-pots were a much underappreciated feature like the Sensi-Temp units.

Not cheap, but There are a couple of these on eBay as of yesterday. Had I known, I would have copied the auctions. Sorry, but I think they'll be easy to find. One of them was priced at $15.00 with a shipping fee of $115.00.  The other one was more reasonable but I forget the price. Good hunting.

Am I wrong or,,, Looks like that there was the original "Wash Plate"???

Respect! That's a nice fast spin.

I know that a lot of old GE dryers had timers that went up to 140 minutes to accommodate installations where the unit was modified to run on 115v instead of 230v. IIRC opting for the lower voltage meant that most loads took 3 X longer to dry.   They even had a connection under the rating plate...

Along those lines I've always wondered why Whirlpool never featured those wonderful dry detergent dispensers on their TOL models.   The best thing about the Lady Kenmores IMO was that they were one of the only machines of that era where you could have a cycle with both a Pre-Wash and a second...

"You could run the portable disposal in the garden... That's what I plan to do.   Contrary to our idiotic local codes, I plan on diverting  my "gray water" into a cistern for watering the land. There are a lot of people in my area who have made similar changes to their plumbing to conserve...

Thanks Kevin That's very encouraging. Which of the pictured machines is the Little Giant? And do they do boil-washes?

Hmmm I imagine it would be a good tool for us composters.   I was cautioned not to install a disposer in my house because of our already challenged septic systems in our village that is built on lots of ledge. The septic engineer explained that new disposers actually do too good a job of...

Thanks for the posts I prefer 240V washing machines. They heat the water more quickly than 120v machines. My LG, overall a wonderful washer that ran on 120v, took more that 40 minutes to reach the highest temperature available (70^oC) before its circuit board got fried. My Miele 1340...

Good Lord! I've always wanted one of these; actually the only Wringer machine that I would ever consider because of the advantage of moving the laundry from one tub to t'other.   Alas, the ad says "As is" which means, usually, that it's not working and the last thing I need right now would be...

Are there any new washing machine brands out there? I was always hoping that Panasonic/National would start marketing their wonderful Front Loaders in the US.

You got it Nemesis! I have this model as one of my daily drivers.   What I like about it is: <ol> <li>The Frididaire-ish front panel.</li> <li>The WOOLENS cycle with my favorite combination of SLOW wash speed with FAST spin.</li> <li>The larger mini-basket in white plastic (that was a lucky...

What they said I've been using two GE Mobile Maid TL dishwashers for exactly these purposes. Absolutely great for trash cans, some tools, lawnmower parts and anything else that I want really clean but nowhere near the things that carry and/or serve food. I prefer machines where I can shut off...

I think I see an automatic cycle That dryer dial looks like the one for the D408. There was an A206 in a house I rented; terrific little machine.

Appliance literature Steve,   Thank you for going to the trouble and time to scan these cut-sheets and brochures. I love this stuff.

Aferim! What a beautiful machine. I always liked those Whirlpool top racks that held the glasses in an extreme enough "leaned-over" position so water wouldn't pool in the bases.     What's the tub made of?

DW? What brand is that dishwasher?
