    Rinsing on OLD fashioned Top Load washers

    That's one thing I don't like about the 74 Kenmore. It needs longer than two rinses for big loads, particularly stiff denim. Just when it's pulling the load down it starts draining.

    Is Whirlpool done with?

    I had this issue on my Maytag Bravos X that I bought in early 2011. Within a few months I noticed it happening on the power wash cycle. It would fill and then go straight into a drain. That cycle never worked correctly and the machine only lasted 2 years.

    replacement dishwasher

    I would have went with Whirlpool but at the time when I went to get a new machine,the GE was readily accessible while the Whirlpool portable I would have had to wait over a month because of supply issues due to COVID. I'm glad I did get the GE portable now as it was about $300 cheaper and had...

    [i]WORST[/i] pre-1980 agitator design ever made??

    No outrageous statement Sean. Everyone has an opinion. I personally think the Roto Swirl is one of the best looking ramp agitators and the Roto Flex can move big loads. There are videos of it out there. Personally though I find the Roto Flex the least appealing of all of the belt drive varieties.

    Epitome of proper daily laundry sorting???

    As far as the west is concerned, this is trying to create a solution to a problem that doesn't exist. I mean it is kind of cool, but is there a real need for something like this ?

    I don't mind a little noise from the dishwasher. To me it just sounds like it is doing something.

    If Whirlpool were to bring back the Direct Drives

    The DD was probably the pinnacle of top load washer technology. They certainly got the weight down at least 50-60 lbs.from the belt drive and just 2 screws and 2 clips to pull off the cabinet to the whole works.

    The Today Show w/ Fred Maytag II - March 1954 - 16mm Film

    Honestly I don't know what's wrong with the wash action in Maytag automatics. I think they wash great and really move the load around, especially in standard tubs Of course not like the wringers because they had bigger wider tubs for clothes to freely move around.

    Is it over for Whirlpool ?

    Reply #26 If I had to do all new appliances today it would all be Whirlpool. Even though the GE top load agitator washers have that huge capacity and a true dual action agitator. I don't like the feel of the controls. They are rather loose and the smaller dials turn all the way around. Even...

    [i]WORST[/i] pre-1980 agitator design ever made??

    Reply #28 Tom that's funny you mention about the Kenmore aerated spray because on one of my videos of the Kenmore it is filling for the rinse and the white T-shirt at the back of the tub started billowing up as the spray was hitting it. You could actually see it like a balloon being blown up.

    [i]WORST[/i] pre-1980 agitator design ever made??

    That load was quite full and still turned it over. I mean it isn't to borrow a phrase "dolphins at SeaWorld" turnover but it is still turning over and that whole load circulated well.

    What is life without hopes and dreams ? What is the main premise of this site if it's not holding onto things that are no more part of the "real world"?

    [i]WORST[/i] pre-1980 agitator design ever made??

    I'd say the Penta Swirl is probably my favorite now of the belt drive agitators along with the Surgilators in all their flavors.
