I think it's the solenoid The humming is after the fill and before the water starts coming through the detergent dispenser. Is there a separate solenoid that operates that feature ? It works just has the humming. Then it is quiet once the water starts dispensing the detergent. If I put the...

Well, I purchased the Lady Kenmore Piano Key washer that was in Shopper Square under Craigslist LA. It's really beautiful. The pictures looked like the tub had some wear but it is sparkling not a bit of wear. I will post pictures later. It is so quiet. Just a couple questions . The model...

Does the tub on this look worn or damaged In the fourth photo on the ad does the tub look like it's been worn or painted? I can't tell and would it damage items being washed? Thanks so much!

What model number is this to download brochure from Forum Is the manual available for download of the website? Thanks so much!

bleach Thank you! That's what I figured. I rarely use chlorine bleach anyway.

I know this isn't the timed bleach dispenser. So If I add bleach in the dispenser is it put directly into the tub when it's added at the beginning of the wash? Is it just there to be an easier way to add the bleach instead of directly into the tub? Which is a no no on adding bleach. Which...

what a nice collection! You have some of my favorite machines! Just beautiful!

Using vinegar in the rinse cycle Sometimes I use vinegar in the rinse cycle on whites. Will that harm the tub? What about Arm and Hammer Washing Powder?

I usually do put the soap in the middle of the agitator. I bought some Tide powder and wanted to see how it sudsed up as well!LOL! Christina your A806 is as old or older does the porcelain tub still have a shine or is it dull? Thanks, Floyd

I think I know what happened I have a feeling the pillow case got caught under the fitted sheet and was at the bottom of the agitator and really took a beating. I love my Maytag and have about $800 invested in the matching pair between the cost of them, delivery, and a once over maintenance so...

Only thing different I used Borax and wanted it well resolved so I added the clothes after agitation began. It wasn't agitating while I was adding clothes though. So does it do better on more water and less clothes or just an average load with right amount of water? Usually I have what I...

yes loading it proper Well, I checked originally and went over the agitator again and it's as smooth as a baby's bottom. This machine got very little use from what I understand. It came from a house in Palm Springs and for all the years was only used a couple months out of the year. I'm...

I am the proud owner of a Maytag A806 from 1979 that Kevin helped me get last Spring. I've noticed that that I'm getting holes in underwear and today an expensive pillowcase less then a year old is shredded at the ends. I don't use chlorine bleach so it's not from that. Also t-shirts (tank...

Appreciate it! Such a wonderful group here. I already have the matching dryer to the A806 which is DE806 in beautiful avocado. I;m in a 1936 Spanish and it would cost over a $1000 to install the 240 service.

Thank you! You're the best. My mom had that matching model as her washer with what would be the matching dryer I have as a washer! LOL! I sent theseller an email. If you find anything older let me know!

I have a Maytag A806 in avocado green and looking for a vintage gas dryer. I would like avocado but interested in any colors or models. Thanks again! Looking at spending couple hundred at most.

More The washer is from September 1969. Yes it has a bleach dispenser and tub light. I'd love to have the set. I only have Gas connection and it would be great to have a working pair, instead of just the washer. Kevin where are you? LOL!

Congratuilations Just like the set I got last June only in avocado green! I love them, they were also from 1979. I had a few little issues but with new belts the washer runs like a dream. I love being able to do a load of laundry in under 30 minutes! I also don't have the dryer hooked up...

Questions Is the dryer electric or gas ? Can you post pictures of the control panels and inside the dryer please?

Would this work
