This is why we need timeless classics. Tools and parts would always available at a relatively low price, and when the machine is truly beyond reasonable repair you can buy the exact same trusted dependability you've come to know and love brand new. Imagine if everyone who has a 30 year old...

Wasn't meant to be IMO. As they say, you're buying someone else's headache.

Does the washer drain the outer cabinet during agitation? I ask because at starting at 34:50 the machine appears to oveflow about 12 (?) gallons of water and then at 37:05 starts gyrating. IIRC I remember members a while back telling me these machines pumped out water in both motor directions...

These are my suds levels for an average load:

About 0.8235 inches or 2.1 centimeters when frozen. I love cast iron too, the flavor, color and texture is next level.

Yup, fake as fake gets. These machines are what did Maytag in. Maytag should never have produced a single Norge, Amana or Performa machine. they should have stuck to the DC and Dc only in topload agitator washers.

It almost looks like the disk is not centered post nutation- like it just shut off midway during nutation. Could be bad could be a coincidence.

You mean WWSE3160AOWW? That model had a 30 minute soak option. I myself still can't get model WWA8350P out of my mind (Courtesy and Thanks to DADoES): Only thing I don't like is that the automatic soak cycle does not advance into the normal cycle. I wish it did, to me that would be optimal...

Tide Free and Gentle is also good stuff. I remember getting good suds from it as well, more than Tide Original Liquid.

I still remember your Kenmore Pat. I still wish they offered a similar control panel today and made in direct drive.

I did burgers again. Though this time I cheated, I opted for Doritos instead of French Fries. Desert was chocolate chip mini muffins with vanilla pudding. Burgers are cooked on both sides, then cut in half and grilled on the internal side. I use a cast iron pan which gets HOT and gives great...

Does anyone know the history of Maytag's various Soak Cycles and how they differed from one another? Does anyone remember the soak sequence, especially in washers that automatically advanced into wash after the soak period? I wish more washers offered an auto soak period prior to the wash. I...

I would be more than interested! You want to start the thread or me? What should I name it?

That is actually how I would test a dishwasher in terms of fat, grease and fine particle removal. The picture to the left is bone with nothing on it after the cycle, the dishwasher did a good job in those terms. One way I test a dishwasher in terms of particle re-distribution and water...

That is about what temp I get with my 50/50 mixing valve, so that explains it. Good to know!

I like what I am seeing on the Maytag A712 Does anyone have a cycle chart?

Launderess, do you have any idea what temperature is officially recommended or best based on your knowledge for Tide Original and Tide Professional? I have discovered that Tide Professional works about the same if not identically well in warm water as it does with hot water.

I am tempted to doubt the tub will just crack and leak, but it is not unheard of of VMWs exploding in spin. I validate some of your mothers concerns and seek out either a Speed Queen washer or a used direct drive washer. The dryer I think can wait but the cold washing and error codes are...

Thank you, I will start to research those model numbers. I have been thinking about machines with auto soak cycles before the wash, or machines which incorporate soaking into the normal part of the wash as a means to increase detergent effectiveness as shown below. Agitation and Soak...

Do you have pics or model # of the 10 series onward? I am going to look into them.
