Geeze... Nearly 13 years ago!!! That was the first time I ever saw a Kelvinator (ABC-O-Matic), a GM Frigidaire, or Calypso running... Seems like an eternity!

Wish I could get it!!!! This is the washer that started it all for me. This pic is me when I was 8. The washer had just died and we were waiting for the new one to arrive. I miss it!

The new machine does NOT have the Fisher Paykel drive system in it. It DOES have a direct drive BPM motor with a planetary drive.

I put a 15 foot drain hose on my coin-op SQ for a year while in college. It didn't seem to blink an eye at it.

Seems like a pretty old idea to me...

This is my personal opinion. Hmmmm... I'd have to talk to some of the engineers at work but that sounds like a water valve issue... I'll ask when I'm back in the office.

This is my personal opinion. Honestly, I'm chomping at the bit to get my hands on one. I dry everything on low heat anyway so I'm used to longer drying times. Depending on the mode you use, the WP heat pump dryer isn't that bad at all for drying times (provided you use an HE washer with a high...

I absolutely LOVED playing with that washer when I visited! If only I had the funds to ship them!!! However, I did just buy a house so things are a little tight while I fix it up. I hope these go to a very loving home!

I have been given the green light to reveal some details FINALLY! I have been reading this thread waiting to tell you more about this machine! I've spent quite a bit of time on this machine so I am happy to answer as many questions as I can about it! 1) This is NOT an Oasis machine. It is not...

I fixed the Calypso fairly easily. All I ended up needing to do was pull a bra wire out of the pump. It then worked flawlessly for 2 years or so until the u-joint seized and the belt shredded. I still have the dryer but the washer went away long ago. I very much would like to find another...

Nothing to worry about, it's just the steel balancing balls distributing themselves. Once they've distributed, the machine stabilizes.

I love my Speed Queen FL washer except for 3 things: 1) I REALLY wish it had a soil level selector. 24 minutes of wash it just too long for some loads and I'm not about to sacrifice the 1,000 RPM spin to shorten the wash period. 2) The spin cycles are somewhat finicky. For the pulse spins, if...

Hmmmm.... My bf lives in Ypsilanti...

I wish I had the space and means to acquire this!!! http://detroit.craigslist.org/okl/app/4595654722.html

I will be happy to shed some light on this dryer when I can!

I find this thread... ... Very interesting! :)

The colors for the picture are inverted. They did make black console version of this machine, but this is not one of them.

Welcome to insanity :P

The manual already states the Max is three rinses.

If I remember correctly, Normal is one rinse, Extra is two rinses, and Max is three rinses.
