Got a hold of these recently and wanted to share with everyone. Announcing the all new Fabulous 1965 WDA-65 Rollermatic !!! Jim

I also had my Filtrator drying a load of towels yesterday. I grew up with a DCI-61 (clamshell) Filtrator. Monday's were washday in our house. The smell of vintage laundry detergent, bleach and a Filtrator drying the clothes filled the air. That was and still is a precious smell to me. Bringning...

Malcolm Great looking and working machines. Most FL's have no drama. I like that you get some "suds and splash" effect with the Speed Queen unlike a lot of other Fl's. More fun to watch ! My Maytag Neptune also does not have a prewash setting. What I do is use the Rinse and spin setting. I put...

Mickey, Great video's. Super clear. It was almost like I was there. I had the same problem with my unimatic. The hose split. Just take the hose off and take it to your local auto parts store. They will measure and give you the same diameter hose. Easy to replace. For your rising hose ( we should...

Thanks for the offer I know that its gone I'll keep my eyes open and maybe I'll find one on a tree lawn somewhere

I want a Calypso Looks like a lot of fun too me

Looks to be the Lady Kenmore with the "garage door" control panel. My aunt had one of these. A truly beautiful dryer. I remember that when you lifted the garage door the whole panel lit up wether the dryer was running or off. I use to like to sneak down her basement with the basement lights off...

Hey gang, I've had a Maytag Neptune FL for going on 10 years now. I have never had a smell problem. With my Neptune I can't leave the door open because of the interior light. However, I do use chlorine bleach for my whites, and when I'm done washing for the day I leave the top mounted dispenser...

Great machine! Don't you just love it. I also have a '63 pair. My model number is WD-63. The water level is not part of the main timer but has a seperate water level control knob. You can choose either normal or small load. I think if you level the machine better the spin will be less noisy. Did...

Matt, You're comparing apples to oranges. TL's and FL's work differently. That's why you have different speeds on a TL. Turning a knob is not labor intensive. As far as lint goes, I have never experienced a problem with lint unless I wash a white cotton bath towel with something like a black...

Matt, I don't know your friend and never even mentioned him. It was a general comment based on my observations on how people wash, from reading the posts on this site and seeing pictures on how a lot of people stuff there machines to the breaking point. If you like your long wash cycles then so...

Hey guys, Of course I was speaking of American made FL's. I can't speak of European models as far as quaility goes. What I do know however, is that FL's in America are junk. With the long cycle times they just do not last long. As far as gentleness of wash, I'm afraid that maybe I wasn't clear...

Lets see: Just for arguments sake we'll say that a typical top loader takes about 30 mins to wash a load of whites. And for a FL, 2 hours. We'll also, for agruments sake, say a typical family of 4 washes about 10 loads a week. For the TL that means the machine is running for about 5 hours per...

Would just like to put this out there, but: Has anyone ever heard back from Rich when he posts these sales and you email him that you're interested; and has anyone actually gotten any of these washers and dryers from him? Just wondering !?!

Hey Rich, I've sent you several emails and never heard back from you. I'm still interested Jim

For my money bring back the old fragrances of : Tide Cheer Oxydol Dash Salvo Tablets We should all start a letter writing campaign to the manufacturers and let them know that there is a market out here for those classic aromas.

Rich I am definitely interested in the Kelvinator set. I sent you an email Thanks, Jim

Of course you should get a service call and have them fix it. You paid for an extended warranty---- so use it.

Definitely go for individual units that can be stacked. If one goes you can just replace it and don't have to junk the whole unit. How much do they want to spend? Look in the Consumer Reports latest review of washers. They rate a lower priced front load frigidaire as a "Best Buy" and it has a...

Les, There is a slot in the drum shaft. How I would I get it off if it has a woodfruff key? Jim
