If only I had the room!

Update on Original Machine I Posted About... Well, it turns out that this seller does indeed have the machine in question: http://pennstate.craigslist.org/app/5431421048.html. It's the fourth and fifth picture over. Looks like a fairly modern machine. What would have been so hard to send...

Yogitunes - I am located about an hour north of Harrisburg, partway between Harrisburg and State College. It looks like our Plan B washing machine may fizzle into nothing. We have a few more local appliance dealers to contact yet, and if nothing materializes, then I will take your advice and...

Chestermikeuk - That's a great setup!

We ended up passing on it. We've been watching for at least a year, albeit sometimes sporadically, for a suds saver, any brand, or a larger "modern" twin tub. It wasn't a pressing matter until now. Our Samsung bit the dust on Thursday. Anyhow, does anyone recommend a certain brand or have...

Well, no pics were provided last night or this morning. Now he says maybe this evening he can provide some. Saturday is the only day we have time to make a road trip like this. He doesn't seem to be too interested in making the sale. Would you just pass on this?

Thanks Rp2813. I found Yogitunes' profile, but I don't see any way to PM him.

OK, thanks so much for the replies so far. I will proceed with caution. I did ask him what he replaced on it since he said he reconditioned it, to which he has still not replied. Yes, his written grammar leaves much to be desired. He speaks just fine though. Rp2813 - where should the price be...

Hi folks, Finally found a Maytag suds saver last evening on CL. It's with a dealer who says he has reconditioned it. He provided a crappy picture in which I cannot see anything, so I've requested more pics. Here is the listing: http://pennstate.craigslist.org/app/5403286901.html He will send...

Thank you for the replies. For now, we've heated the seal in boiling water and reshaped it. So far, so good. That should hold us over until a replacement is found.

We have what we believe is a 1964 wringer washer that we refurbished, and it's been working great....except it has been leaking gear oil every time I use it. We opened the transmission and it looks like this worm shaft seal is misshapen, leading to leaking. A search on eBay and Google has...

Thanks so much, folks! These things seem to be rarer than hen's teeth. Hmmm...I have not run across any info on Speed Queen suds saver models. Off to do more research!

Yogitunes - I just don't know that I have enough time to work with a wringer washer, though I do love them. I have laundry for four people, and I do sit down and do my job between loads, so I'm not standing by the washing machine while it's running. :) My laundry room isn't really a room at...

Akronman - I JUST now spotted the For Sale/Wanted section....ugh...so embarrasing! Yes, I did see where there should be a knob/setting that says suds return or something to that effect, but usuallythe pics included in the listing aren't close enough to see the knobs and settings, and the ad is...

Maybe there is a thread here, but a search leads me to scattered info. I am wondering if someone has compiled a list of makes and models with the suds return feature. I do know that Maytag offered some, and I believe Frigidaire did also. Searching on Craigslist and eBay with "suds return" in...

So I had posted some weeks ago about considering a washer that I have the ability to save/reuse my wash water and have more control over my washing. I LOVE the Easy Spindrier, and similar washers, as they are beautiful machines, but I am fearful about repair and parts for something of that...

Hello. I've been lurking for a while doing research to replace my uselss 1.5-year-old front load Samsung wannabe washer. I am considering buying a Spindrier (assuming I can find a decent one) or a vintage/modern top load Speed Queen. I don't really have enough time to work with a wringer washer...
