    Early to mid 1960's Maytag Automatic

    You know Kevin,  I can help unburden you of some of that "evil".  Now if you were too sell me those two brightly lit Tags in the back corner,  I think you would feel so much better!   Beautiful collection by the way!

    GE Reliability

    I too have had a really bad experience with my GE refrigerator.  I bought it new in 2005 and just after owning it for 2 years, it started not refrigerating and making a strange clicking noise.  It turned out the main control board had gone bad (this is a known problem with these refrigerators)...

    Maytag Neptune Control Boards (versions?)

    I was wondering about that.  But on the other hand, the updated inverter controlled induction motor came with a whole new motor control board too.  I don't know whether this necessitated an updated main control board too.  This is where my problem is with this...  My machine came with a switched...

    Maytag Neptune Control Boards (versions?)

    Over the years there have been several different part numbers for the control boards on the early Neptunes.  Part numbers like 22002988, 22002334 and 22002365 look like they are all interchangable.  I have an MHA3000AWW.  When I call the parts store to get a price for a control board, they tell...

    WTB: Maytag LA806 and LDE808

    Well, If there are no LA806's available, are there any other models of this series available that have the back lit console?

    Best built modern washer?

    This has me really leaning towards the Speed Queen. I appreciate the Miele's quality of design and construction (and I would seriously consider buying one) but here in the US, with only a 1 or 2 year warranty, I wouldn't want to take a chance that the control board goes bad in 2 years and I end...

    Best built modern washer?

    "This one in fact - £679.99 including a 10 year Parts and Labour guarantee(Miele offer- this month ALL their washers come with this). NOTHING on the market at the moment can come close to that for value! "   Unfortunately here in the US, we don't receive quite as good an offer.  The warranty...

    Any permanent fix for Neptune bearing problem?

    Very Nice! I would like to keep this machine since I believe it to be a significant part of "washing machine history". It does have the new motor and new motor control board. It also has the new wax motor in the door lock. I have been told that there is another wax motor somewhere in the...

    Best built modern washer?

    Some say Miele although I have heard that it can be difficult to get parts for them. Some say Speed Queen still makes machines with "old school" quality. I have heard a few say that if you buy a "commercial machine" (Maytag perhaps) like those intended for on premises laundry that you can still...

    Any permanent fix for Neptune bearing problem?

    When I say permanent, I mean at least a 10 year fix. I know there are ways to replace just the bearing and seal (without having to replace the entire outer tub) but the water still tends to get into the bearing and ruin it after a while. Is there any way to keep this from happening? My...

    WTB: Maytag LA806 and LDE808

    Those were a couple of gorgeous machines. They remind me of the machines my family had when I was a kid. We had 9 people in my family and even back then, most washing machines my dad bought used would only last 2 or 3 years. I remember my dad being unhappy about that because we didn't have...

    Can anyone recommend a Classic Maytag?

    Is the Posting of a WTB (Want to buy) message allowed in this forum? Or is there a more appropriate place? I did not see any rules against it.

    Can anyone recommend a Classic Maytag?

    Thanks for all the great info! Now however I think I am doomed. I just got a look at the gorgeous LA806 with the lighted backpanel and the matching dryer and I know what machine(s) I want. I bet they are really hard to find though... How does one go about finding a machine like that? ebay...

    Can anyone recommend a Classic Maytag?

    I am looking to purchase and restore an older dependable care (ie belt driven) washing machine. I want to use this machine for every day use. Back in the late 70's my family had an old machine that I think was an A108. This machine lasted for decades. So I guess I am trying to reproduce...
