    Maytag DG808 Dryer

    Of course he says they aren't worth his time. He'd say the same thing to the Queen. You gotta find an old fella that's familiar with machines of that age and gives a damn. These kids don't understand anything without a computer board in it. Anyone who comes into your home and talks to you like...

    Maytag DG808 Dryer

    There seems to be some missing information here. If the dryer is chiming multiple times, that would indicate that you are using the permanent press setting all of the time. Usually the normal cycle, with one ding, is sufficient to dry a load of clothes. Has the dryer been serviced lately? If...

    Why Maytag Automatic Washers Clean Clothes So Well...

    This will make an interesting read, but I can hear the rumblings from deep within the earth now. Let's remember, it's just a read from one manufacturer and not Consumer Reports. We can discuss and keep it civil. This will be fun. Good choice for a discussion Robert and Greg.

    Maytag DG808 Dryer

    She said DG 808, not 806. I realize some of the controls are similar, but let's make a distinction here.

    KDS-17a in great condition in MA / near RI $75

    Hi Lorie, It's too bad you have to get rid of it. The wood panel in it really makes it "pop" Don't know about the rest of the cabinets, but that color and grain in the wood really looks nice. But you didn't come on here to talk about cabinets. I think you're machine was known as a "hurricane...

    Catchphrases From the Past. What Do You Remember?

    I know there were commercials for Frigidaire ranges cause I've seen a b/w one on YouTube, but did they make any for their washers and dryers? I don't remember any for them or Philco. They did print adds though. Anyone remember?

    Any One Using Wool Dryer Balls

    Looks like that tennis ball idea but purposely made for the job. I never tried the tennis ball thing. I can't remember. Was that to keep things from wading up in the dryer?

    Create A806 Maytag

    An 806 of the proper vintage should come along some day. Be patient and keep a watchful eye out. Here's the spray paint I used. It's not a perfect match but it suited me. If you can find a better match use it. http://www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREAD.cgi?54154

    Catchphrases From the Past. What Do You Remember?

    Yes, Martin. You're right. Catchphrases have been many and they change as years pass. I guess it depends on ones age as to what they remember. Maybe this is unrealistic.

    Video tour of 1963 Westinghouse Terrace Top

    Kevin, Thank you for explaining the features of the Westinghouse Terrace Top range. Very interesting. Just out of curiosity, how many ranges to you have in your collection? Do you have other appliances in your collection? That's probably a stupid question. Kevin and Ralph, I enjoy and look...

    Maytag HoH dryer

    But no telling what model it is. Why do people do things like this? It gives one an idea what kind of housekeeper they are. We know it's white so it's a "D" something.
