WOW ! Who knew ?!? Amazing, Robert! I'm speechless. These machines look like a Launderall and early GE and Maytag automatic washers went through a teleporter and had their molecules crossed (like in the mover "The Fly.")

look forward to seeing your pics

were all shipping bolts removed from rear of the machine at installation?

good news Nice that they are giving you a new motor. Now you can love your LG washer again. I have a funny (to look back on it now) story about our LG dishwasher's safety features to share. Hubby ran a load of dishes and thought it would be a good idea to throw in the wire soap holder in our...

I have a gas LG dryer 3571 (which I think is the same as your electric dryer but in gas.) I have never experienced that error code. Like you, I clean the filter after each load and the duct in my house runs up through the attic and exits on the roof. It's a rather long run and concerns me, so I...

I meant this post to go in "Shoppers Square." I had the machine for about 5 years until I moved and left it in the house. It did have very aggressive agitation, with no step down on normal cycle to slow speed after a few minutes like later direct drive machines.

located in Wisconsin. A bit expensive for its age but looks very well cared for. I bought this same model new in 1985. It is the first generation of Kenmore direct drive washers as it has the clothes guard with a spin drain. Mine did not come with the fabric softener dispenser attachment, they...

here's an old thread on Kenmore round tub bolt down https://www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREAD.cgi?33331

57 Westy Laundromat The first washer I operated by myself was a 57 middle-of-the-line Westy Laundromat. It was very similar to the Anderson's washer pictured here, with the V trim around the window in the door. The color scheme was gold and black -- a very handsome machine. Just drop the...

Have you ever tried some white (clear) vinegar in the final rinse? The LG FL I have will let you add up to 4 additional deep rinses on top of whatever the selected cycle has programmed. (You could end up with 6 or 7 deep rinses!) If Turbo Wash is selected, there is also a spin-spray rinse...

Saw that sign at Home Depot yesterday Time to start rolling that coin and turning it in, folks! Years ago when my son was still at home, we had a bucket in the pantry that we tossed loose coin into. Being a male household with pockets in stead of purses, spare change was always emptied into...

My LG steam dryer (model 3571) has a water reservoir drawer, that you manually fill when you want to use steam, on the control panel where the dispenser drawer is on the washer. I like this system much better than having a cold water line plumbed into the dryer.

Fun to read this post of Kevin's review again. Hard to believe that was over five years ago! Time flies. These machines are still running like tops, no repairs. I don't know that the water temps are actually dumbed down as much as the fact that the water heater is in the garage. By the time...

Easy Peasy Hi Mickey. This 1932 Easy washer ad for sale on Ebay mentions in the smaller text at the bottom you can get the machine with either agitator or vacuum wash action. And it will not crack buttons...

Wow! How do you find all these conventional washing machine treasures in So Cal?! And in such great condition? Beautiful machine! Congrats! My grandmother had a green enamel Easy like that but the spiralator was a bit different as I clearly remember there being some sort of screw on agitator...

Hi Glenn. I'm so old that in the grand scheme of things a 14 year old machine seems relatively modern. LOL

In spite of the fact that the price of a washing machine in the 1950's or 60's would cost about $3000 in today's dollars, not all machines lasted for decades back then. While there are those lightly used gems that worked without a repair for 20 years or more (like my Nana's 1955 Frigidaire...

Don't think I've seen that episode, and I thought I saw them all. (Although once in a while I'll see an unedited version and a new scene previously cut to make commercial time shows up.) Maybe you are thinking of a Westinghouse commercial? I know Lucille Ball and gang did quite a few.

Tom, Lucille Ball is the voice of the Laundromat on the Ellis in Freedomland film! On the I Love Lucy episode Never Do Business With Friends, where Ethel buys Lucy's old washing machine, I always imagined that Lucy got a new set of Westinghouse laundry twins -- although they never showed...

pretty in pink Hey Kev. Thanks for the open door shots. It doesn't look like the dryer door can be reversed. So I guess it was 1964 Westinghouse brought forth the flat front Laundromat and also introduced their top load washer. Our family got ours in 65 and it sounds like the same model Tom's...
