It's amazing what perfectly good stuff people stupidly get rid of. America really needs to get out of its "everything's disposable" mentality and wasteful spending on junk. Bet those Maytags were replaced by some new, eco-type crap washer that will last all of three years, if even that, with...

I have to jump in here and support Jeff's opinion. The people who disagree with him so far are not living in the States, where our front loading washers are built vastly different than yours. They literally do use about only a cup of water per fill, and that is indeed disgusting as well as...

washer Sorry to "lift" this photo from a member -- this is not my actual machine, but the model of Bendix washer I am selling. My camera is broken and I did not have any photos readily available. (I will be happy to take some with my camera phone if asked.)

Hi guys, Have decided to part with my baby Bendix from around 1947, as well as the dryer, from approximately 1952. The washer actually runs well. I ran a cycle about a year ago. The timer will not advance on its own, however, and the drain tube needs replacment as it leaks badly. I am...

Drooling..... .......! Any chance of parting with any of them?

Awww! I remember how great it was seeing her dance again in that old Janet Jackson video, "Alright", which was a flashback to the 1940s and the whole zoot suit era. Cyd was there, along with the Nicholas Brothers and Cab Calloway. I believe they've all passed away.

I've got central A/C. House is mid-century, one level, 900+ square feet. Thermostat is set to 82-83 during the daytime and 80 at night. I also keep fans blowing on me. Power bill starts increasing around May to $90 a month, peaking at around $130 by August, and tapering off afterwards. The...

Congratulations Travis! The set and its color are beautiful. (Wish we had more finds like that in my region.)

What's the point of having an interior light if it doesn't have a window?

Oh God Well, it was only a matter of time, folks.... Tons of stupid people will probably buy this, and enjoy sporting nonstop 'eau de armpit' and other B.O.!

I agree completely. It's too bad your suggestion won't be heeded by the manufacturers over here, as it just makes too much sense! :P

Sorry Thomas but I disagree. You may not be familiar with the invisible water "levels" of newer U.S. front loaders. My clothes still had odors after a 2+ hour cycle! Never had this problem with a standard, much cheaper top loader. Thankfully, the problem went away once I readjusted the water...

Where can I buy Persil without having to order it off the internet?

It sure is a shame to lose Harvey Korman. The Carol Burnett Show, and his work on it, were amazing. It's so sad what passes for entertainment and humor today -- too much dumbed-down, rude and crude garbage. It just reminds me to appreciate the contributions of real talent that much more.

Love those Philcos Hope the Bendii go to a good home....would be a shame if not! I sure wish we had these finds down here!

HOLY COW! That is gorgeous!

With all the new and exciting offerings on the very expensive LG, how about this one. A feature allowing the user to control everything the machine does, for how long, in what temperature, speed, and what amount -- and not the other way around. As soon as this mythical machine is invented in...

I'd love a dishwasher with a window! But then, between watching that and my front loader, I'd never leave the house :P
