    Spin Spray

    I always assumed that the one minute spray rinse in my Maytag A608 was to knock down suds before the deep rinse.  That makes sense to me because of the higher sudsing detergents that were in use at one time.  However, my old Whirlpool DD utilized a series of spray rinses AFTER the deep rinse. ...

    would love to have advice from speed queen expert to convince my mom to switch to speed queen

    A211 washer: Anyone know of a mod to add a second rinse cycle?

    I'm not familiar with the A211; however, as already mentioned, resetting the timer to the final rinse and/or using Permanent Press would be two great and easy options.

    Maytag A806 update

    Congratulations on a job well done!  Maybe one less pair of pants and the rollover would have been excellent too!

    Run from the Maytag!  It will not serve you well.  The Kirkland is a rebadge Whirlpool direct drive.  That is a good solid machine.  I've never heard of that marque either but if you can find the equivalent parts, it will make a good daily use machine.

    I'm sure most of you have seen this episode, but I just stumbled across it tonight.  Our own Robert and his collection are beautifully featured.  Well done!

    1960/61 Frigidaire Custom Imperial dual oven

    The color could be pink.  Some of the closeups appear that way. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/126914415924333/

    Yes, it is necessary for a quieter dishwasher, especially if you have an open concept home.

    Speed queen models —

    The pair in Mission Hills is a real workhorse.  I bought that pair around 1986 and only changed the drive belt a couple of times on the washer.  I gave them away in 2017 when I moved and they were still going strong.

    Maytag A407: is it worth it?

    The great thing about the PP cycle on the A407 is that the cool down can sort of function as an extra rinse and it will still spin on high speed (since there is no low speed).  I had an A407 but converted it to an A606 with PP.  I had to rig some new wiring but it works!

    If you had to choose...

    If you want something that will wash bulky comforters, go with the LG's 4.5 cf tub or larger with Turbo Wash.

    A806 washer Installed new tub bearing & seal - spin cycle is off balance ???

    Yes, balancing the spin basket requires some trial and error.  The service manual also has a procedure fore making sure the tub springs have the correct tension in relation to each other.  I'll see if I can't find it and post.
