    Amana HE Topload washer

    For what the price is on this machine it is probably the best value for the dollar out there. I would take this over any Cabrio or Bravos washer any day.

    Happy 13th B-day to my Duet Washer/Dryer

    I just took my 16 year old Duets out of service only because a customer of mine who I sold a top of the line Duet pair 2 years ago contacted me to say she was getting a divorce and was moving and couldn't take her $2500 washer and dryer with her, if I knew anyone who wanted to buy them. I...

    1967 Sundberg Ferar French Door Refrigerator

    My Aunt had a Sandburg Ferrar Coldspot French door refrigerator from 1966 when her house was built, it had copper tone sides but the front doors looked like paneling and it had black barn door hinges on the 2 refrigerator doors. It was a cool refrigerator in its day. I remember my Aunt always...

    Admiral Washer & Dryer / $200 / San Diego

    They are actually Maytag Performa's which is actually Magic Chef units, which in reality are Norge machines. Without the model and serial number it is hard to say when they were actually built, if I had to guess id say very late 90's early 2000's?

    Never Used KDS-17 in Providence.

    Why does the gold access panel look so close to the floor, there is supposed to be a 4" black kick panel under the access panel, something looks strange on this machine? I called him, he said someone is supposed to pick it up on Friday, if it doesn't sell he will call me.

    I work for Whirlpool Factory Certified Care and I have an Airsled in my van, it looks very similar to the Airglide, I have been using it for over 25 years and it can lift and move a stacked Duet washer filled with water and a dryer on the top with no effort at all. Recently I used it to move a...

    Got this Whirlpool Dryer - What year is it?

    According to Service Matters, they say it was built September 25, 1989. I don't know, the machine looks older than that? Open the control panel and look at the date codes on the switches or the timer.

    Opinions wanted-Best performing "vintage" Dryers?

    I would say that a 29" Whirlpool built dryer with the oval opening and drop down hamper door is probably the best all around dryer out there. But I have to say, I remember as a kid my Mom had a 1972 Westinghouse dryer in our weekend house up in the Catskills and it had "cross vane tumbling" I...

    KitchenAid KDS-17A No Water After Prewash Cycle

    Definitely sounds like a bad fill valve, after the initial fill the coil on the valve gets hot and opens up not allowing it to enegize. Change the valve and you should be good or another 20 years.
