Kenny, Might be.  However, I have little compassion for anyone who posts "one-hundred fifty dollars" as "150$" in  lieu of "$150".  Get it right or don't even try.   lawrence

Paul, Congratulations on your new playroom.  That's just awesome!  Seems a shame to mess it up with tools and parts.   lawrence

I'm thinking this is a Brazilian version of a Whirlpool washer, and so the text is in Portuguese, but fairly easy to translate/understand.  But is the washer really blue?  Or did our Webmaster work his magic on yet another vintage advertisement?   lawrence

Darren, Congratulations!  How about sharing some updated photos of the GE pair after they're cleaned up?   lawrence

Eddie, I agree with Stan, I can't muster the curiosity/courage to open the link.  I'm very sorry that you carry this memory around after all these years, that's some heavy baggage.  Also, that's a terrible event for an 11-year-old to experience.  But I understand how connected that you are to...

Drop Yep.  Drop the washer.  Gravity will take over at that point and the rear feet will level themselves.  You might need to spray WD-40 on all four feet and let it work a while, especially if you find they are frozen.     lawrence

The rear of these machines are 'self-leveling' in that if the machine is tilted forward and then set back down, the rear feet will take care of themselves.  Both of the front feet should have a locking nut on the threaded stem and when the machine is leveled, the locking nuts need to be...

What I learned My curiosity got the best of me and I called the auction company and asked questions.  Here's what I learned:   I explained that I've not used HiBid before and could he walk me through the process.  He explained that if I place a bid, I will then have to register and give a...

The GE pair is from 1976 - the year with the yellow/gold consoles.  The exact pair that I owned when I was fresh out of college.   lawrence

Went With The Wind Carol's line was 'I saw it in the window and just had to have it'!   lawrence

Melvin, Good catch - I missed that detail.  Was there something about top/lid finish that tended to sacrifice the quality?  Did WP tend to use less porcelain and more paint during those years?   lawrence

Matching appliances, very clean - have always loved the color-coded controls!   $350 for the pair in Pensacola, FL.   lawrence https://pensacola.craigslist.org/app/d/gonzalez-whirlpool-washer-and-dryer/7733652584.html

GE/Hotpoint washers from this era typically had their Data Plate located on the left side of the washer, near the floor, at the front of the side.  If you didn't look there you might check that location.   lawrence

This range is still available on eBay, if anyone is interested.  Seller is accepting offers.   lawrence

$150 for the pair in Montgomery, AL   lawrence https://montgomery.craigslist.org/app/d/wetumpka-maytag-washer-and-drier/7730054735.html

Melvin, I had an inquiry this morning from him, asking if I was still interested.  He must have had another interested party and was going for the best offer.   Well, for his sake, I'm glad he found a buyer.   lawrence

My two favorites I had several new autos during the 1980's, but my favorites were 1) my 1983 Toyota Tercel; black coupe with manual transmission, sunroof and louvers on the hatchback - that car was FUN to drive; 2) my 1989 Jeep Grand Wagoneer; I felt sooo butch driving that car.  It was white...

The Contest As those of you who are Seinfeld fans may remember, in 'The Contest' each character puts a $50 bet on their ability to refrain from a certain personal form of gratification, and first thing the next morning, Kramer comes into Jerry's apartment, slaps his $50 on the counter and...

This range is also listed on ebay.  It was previously listed for $800 OBO.  I received an offer a lower amount as I was watching the listing.  The description states that everything works as it should, so I sent a question to the seller asking specifically about the Sensi-Temp element.  I never...
