    Old Sears washer

    I seem to remember (many years back) that Sears sold some type of twin tub washer. Did that exist, or am I confused? If so, was it just a rebadged Hoover? Happy Mardi Gras! Todd

    Dryer Venting Question

    Thanks, folks! The laundry closet in each unit needs either a stack set or a combo. The Aristons were what they started with, but those condenser dryers were repeatedly breaking, so we pulled them out and starting using the LG combo unit. Those have done well. Each condo has a laundry closet...

    Dryer Venting Question

    Hi folks! Pardon my stupidity, but I know that you all are a good reference source for me. In a condo development that I am marketing, they did not allow for dryer venting. Most units have a small closet .. we started with the Ariston stack sets but had to pull them out due to many problems. We...

    Ariston Dryers (USA)

    Steve, we have 22 units and have sold 12 thus far. The first five had the Ariston stacks and those were the problematic dryers ... we pulled those and replaced with the smaller LG combo machines and have been using those in the rest of the units. Due to poor space planning, we couldn't go to the...

    Ariston Dryers (USA)

    In a condo development that we are doing, we had to go with ventless dryers, so the developer chose the Ariston stack set with the condensor dryer. Washers all did fine, but four of the five dryers started having problems within the first three months ... loud as hell! We ended up pulling the...

    Hoover Keymatic Model 3226

    capacity Sorry if this has been addressed in the past, but I must have missed it. What is the load capacity on these machines? This is such a cool looking washer; how well did they clean? Congrats on your new treasure. Cheers! Todd

    POD ... that's it

    Bob, you are correct, the Philco POD is the machine that I just got ... its got that cute blue hat on top of the agitator column. I started working on the cabinet and the mechanicals are rusty, but working. Todd

    Its' Alive ... and home now, too!

    Sorry Folks Well, I had good intentions, but got pulled into work ... can you believe that? I tried to convince them that my new washer was a priority, but they didn't quite understand. I will go to my dad's tomorrow and shoot the pics so that Gary can post them for me tomorrow night (Tuesday)...

    Its' Alive ... and home now, too!

    After patiently waiting, we were finally able to pick up the Philco washer yesterday evening. She has considerable rust on the lower cabinet ... 35 years ago they put her on a porch and covered her with blankets & plastic (which protected the top), but the rust really got to the exterior lower...

    BOUNCING POD

    How It Works Back to the topic ... How does this machine actually work? Does anyone have any type of diagrams on it? My tiny brain can't quite grasp it. I know how my "agitub" works, but its obviously different ... how does it bounce??? TODD

    Does anyone know if there is any truth to Ariston pulling from the US?

    info When it comes to appliances, its often just the luck of the draw. The Aristons were very problematic; so we changed to the LG combo. The LG washer that I have came out of 2 weeks of Hurricane Katrina flood waters, then worked perfectly. I guess I need to clear it all; the washer worked...

    Does anyone know if there is any truth to Ariston pulling from the US?

    Ariston Washer & Dryer I am marketing a new condo development and the developer had selected the ariston front loading stack set. In the past six months, we have had countless issues with the dryers. They quickly start to sound like a freight train. We call out service and they have to order...

    I smell a wash-in brewing Steve, I will definitely keep you in mind. I know that we have Art in my neck of the woods and I believe that we have one or two other Louisiana members that I have not yet met. Will stay in touch and let you know once the Philco has made it home. Todd

    Me Steve, are you two hours from me or were you directing that to another member? I would love to have another mini wash-in like when Jason, Art and I got together before Katrina. Jason has moved away, but we still have Art and myself and a handful of machines to play with. Robert, I am...

    top loader This one is a top loading washer. It has that neat little flapper agitator. Control panel and interior are in great shape and clean ... the exterior needs a bit of work. She had it tightly covered (except for about a foot up all the way around the bottom, so rust is there ... which...

    Hello folks. A distant relative passed away two years ago. She moved from the city to the country (about 36 years ago) and did not have hookups at the country house. For years, she would wash clothes in the bath tub while the washer was on the back porch covered with thick plastic and duct tape...

    1-18 Repair

    Thanks Thanks for such a quick reply. I will definitely do as you suggested and will let you know how I make out. That's why I love this club because everyone is so helpful to folks like me; I love the older machines but have limited technical abilities when it comes to repairs. Thanks for the...
