I know I saw that too Louis, it was so ridiculous that I removed that Bedding cycle from the available cycles to choose from. And what makes it even worse is you only can select "Normal" Spin for bedding, not High or Extra High which wastes energy spinning so slowly. I'll use Steam Whites or...

No there is just a simple check box for 1 extra rinse. At that rate 5 extra rinses would be 53 gallons like the 1965 Wards!

I know Louis, I also said Holy Cow lol. However I was pleasantly surprised that it didn't try to get by with a tea cup of water on the Towels cycle. Towels cycle is not Sanitary so it still used quite a lot of water.

I like the extra water so it's not a complaint, just pleasantly surprised. The machine only has one rinse or you can select a 2nd rinse as an option. My old LG allows for 3 rinses.

The other strange thing is the clock and estimated times are off. I had to set it to Mountain time to get the clock to display in Central time, otherwise it shows the time as being one hour ahead (eastern time).

Fourth cycle was an absolute DISASTER! Five bath sheets/towels. Four of those towels is a standard Unimatic load which is the max that machine can take to give you an idea of the load size. Again over 26 gallons! The wash load went fine and the towels came out clean HOWEVER they stuck to the...

Third wash load was 5 standard size bath towels, the same load I did when I made the 1947 Frigidaire full cycle video on YouTube. It washed and dried perfectly without any issue, again however I was surprised to see it used 24 gallons when a Unimatic uses 28.5, granted in the Samsung a lot more...

2nd load was my cleaning rags that I normally wash in the Unimatic or AW6 GE. I was shocked to see it used 31 gallons of water, when the Unimatic uses 28.5 for the exact same load. The main reason it used so much was absolutely ridiculous and the programmers should be fired. During the wash I...

I really like the fact that at the end of the cycle it tells you how much water and power it used along with how much liquid detergent and softener it dispensed from the automatic dispensers. Those dispensers hold about nearly a full bottle of product. First wash load went just fine which was...

So on Tuesday I ordered the Samsung 220 volt/vented combo online from Lowes and it was delivered yesterday which was the next day. I ordered it from Lowes because they were the only place I could find that you could get it in White or as they call it "Ivory". I wonder if the White has been...

The color is still beautiful in this film Cory!!! Thank you again for another great video conversion, I'm totally impressed with what you've created. I was curious what that sign said over the appliances...

Hi Sean, if you watch the very beginning of the episode you can see all machines I now have in my collection. The only Maytag I have is the very first AMP as I gave away the 806 set about 8 years ago to another collector.

I have no idea because it's never once suds-locked, even with suds completely covering the entire agitator. Glad you enjoyed the video!

Yes it sure does drop back into the start winding, just like a Unimatic does. There is no clutch in the first two years of production of the Plus-Capacity designs that is why there is such a careful Extract cycle sequence to prevent any chance of suds-locking. Those aren't pulses, it's just...

Betty and Gladys are back along with Washerman and special guest star Uncle Arthur for a complete demonstration and full regular cycle video of my '65 Plus-Capacity Wards washer. Bob/Appnut I thought of you when making this one :giggle:

Beautiful restoration job Tyler! Just goes to show that almost anything can be brought back to life with time, patience and creativity. Congratulations, this is one of the more rare Kenmore automatics, it is so great that you have one now! Now the big question is will the 1961 all push button...

These videos showing assembly are really super cool Cory, thank you again! I noticed the Hotel Maytag in downtown Newton, never knew about that either!

Okay here's another dishwashing treat the 1965 Consumer Reports Dishwasher issue. SCANDELOUS as you won't believe which machine in 1965 took the #1 SPOT! CU Nov 1965

That’s the key, John real life uses mixed loads. I had both the KD-12 KitchenAid and the 1953 Hotpoint installed in the kitchen at the same time for over two years and found the KitchenAid had fewer rejects (where something didn’t come clean). The KA was better with pots and pans. The Hotpoint...

I'd have to listen to 60hz vs 50hz on the same machine in two different countries to make up my mind. A 50hz motor on 60hz North American power probably sounds different than it would on 50hz mains in Europe.
