this reminds me... of an episode of "Die Sendung mit der Maus". It was about how a DW works...Cool!

Who knew? Just goes to show you how well-informed we (I) are (am) on this side of the Pond. I thought Dyson only made vacuums and hand dryers. Looks pretty nice too, with all the transparent plastic like the vacuums have. Does that mean it costs four times as much as a regular washer, just like...

I was just checking out foraloysius' playlist on youtube. I saw the above mentioned Miele. Anyone familiar with it? 2000 rpm spin speed is screamin'! I'd like to see a WP or Frigilux pull that off...

Omm... Martin, now we're getting somewhere! Okay, so it's an air mass system. If one were to increase the volume of air in the system, the water level would be increased, theoretically. Could one perhaps put something like a fuel filter in place of the water bottle/balloon system in order to...

Frigidaires don't roll like dat... I tried it today with my baker's whites. The machine first pumped out the excess water and then simply didn't add any to replace it. I ended up having to flush the soap in the dispenser drawer into the tub with a couple of KitchenAid mixer bowls full of hot...

Unless... I can find some generous soul who is willing to let me borrow their truck, I'm SOL on this rare find...

I want to but I don't have any way to get it here..

oops! Ignore the first link I posted in this thread! I'd take the washer in it but NOT what crawled into it...;-)

Oh damn... yes I did...sorry 'bout that! Let's try that one again, Martin, shall we? http://nh.craigslist.org/app/3641403237.html

Okay, so I was spouting off to yogitunes about wanting one of these. Lo and behold, one appeareth. Just round the corner from me...

Oh yeah.. I totally know the feeling of going out of control with an obsession like washers...I really want to get my hands on something from the 70s to start out with, like the WP I mentioned or a chocolate brown Westy frontloader. I can just hear the BF now: "What the HELL do you need with...

A little birdie told me.. Whirlpool closed down Bauknecht's factories in Germany and are now producing Whirlpools in their own name....as well as Bauknecht's. Not sure if this is true, but it sounds about right.

LDA series... Anyone care to post a link to that thread? I have a full size one in my sights. My aunt had one just like it. Only difference was, the dial was kind of on it's own little raised "console"...anybody know what I mean? Martin: Stop teasing me! ;-) Just because I couldn't be at your...

If.... if only I had a truck, I'd go get it. I don't live very far from there...

Ralph, your machine sounds a little fancier than mine. I don't have the allergy cycle or the whitest whites cycle. It is indeed the BOL, but it still does a bang-up job washing and spinning. I'm thinking now I maybe should have invested in some extra schnickschnack, maybe an Electrolux, seeing...

rp2813 What year/model is yours? Mine is the base model of the newest incarnation of the Affinity FL, so maybe the fresh air latch is a new innovation because people were complaining about mold, etc.

distressing... I didn't watch the link but I find the videos of people throwing rocks, bricks, weights, etc. into spinning front loaders traumatic if not saddening. I've never understood people who are fascinated by wanton destruction.

Wiping, hillbillies, etc... I realize wiping out the boot might be overkill. It does serve to find any leftovers from an unchecked pocket, however, which does happen once every blue moon or so..Perhaps I'm a little OCD anyway...:-) The Frigidaire FL is equipped with the "fresh air latch" which...

Bears... lol...I got a completely different mental picture from the title of this thread ..:-)

Salesmen.. Hats off to the salesman for selling these people an expensive feature that they most likely won't use. A damp cloth with some diluted bleach water would achieve the same thing for much less money. I have yet to have any unpleasant odors or weird manifestations of any kind in my...
