    who made the first apartment size dryer in the u.s.?

    Spiegel sold the odd ball (without a door) made by naxon/naxxon?  The porthole was small.  When CU tested it it would dry clothes.  It also exhausted through the porthole no lint filter and it would sometimes expel a small item.  This was during the 1960's.   A

    Thumping sound from 1979 DE808 Maytag dryer

    No expert, but most likely the drum rollers or glides whatever your dryer has.  We once had a Magic Chef dryer that would play a tune.  In our case after the second set of rear rollers failed we moved on to something else.

    Kenmore D&M to Whrilpool Transition

    One very big plus for the D&M made Kenmore portable units was the user friendly unicouple and power cord that pulled out of the compartment at rear top left.  IIRC,  D&M provided  longer hoses as well.  People with a Sear's  portable to the right of the sink often did not  have to roll the...

    Trident dryer? Who made this in North America?

    The dryer closely resembles the "Western Auto, Wizard".  Especially the cabinet and door handle. I think the ad. just rotated through the POD a few days ago? [this post was last edited: 11/1/2016-22:26]

    POD 10/18/2016

    Newspaper advertisements from the 1970's for television and appliance stores most always showed the water flowing in WP and GE ads.  I have to agree with reply #3 the visual of the water added something extra to the drama.  A

    A 1947 Thor Washer - Never Used!

    Great thread/find, Robert.   I wanted to inquire about the weight (approx.), of the balancer ring?   The controls you designed for the time and water temp are clever.  Thanks  A

    Rush, Live in Rio, On stage laundry!

    The drier's are commercial Maytag stream of heat.  The door glass is some type of plastic.   The stacked, front control version was in many apartment complex laundries c. 1980's.

    Maytag 1994!!

    After the LAT's came out, at least mine anyway.  The porcelain edge around the underside of the lid is prone to rust. I wipe down the splashes and steam.  It is not a problem, but different from the quality in my old froze up center dial. A

    Food Courts, Restaurant Circles . . . Why not Discount Grocery Malls?

    Maybe it is not a multi task most people like.  After a meal  most people spend less in a grocery store.  Other than cold weather it would not be wise to leave perishables in the car while in a restaurant.

    Dumb small electric appliance question

    You were lucky.  As Mixguy posted.  I once had an old "Fostoria" (McGraw Edison) corn popper. Some how I touched it and the sink. I received more than a "tingle".  Frightening enough that I tossed it out.
