Who made who I know Kenmore has always been made by Whirlpool,but was there ever a brief period that their toploaders were made by WCI? I thought i read a post about that.Any Kenmore experts know? Pat

Looking at this Norge brought back fond memories. I had forgotten how large the tubs were in those machines.Same design as our Fedders Norge.Good washers,though very LOUD. Pat

Ahh! The memories! I wish i had saved the dd surgilator from our previous washer. I could always get one though for the KM. See Austin,....those dd surgilator are powerful agitators. I wonder if i can still get the lint filter surgilator for my machine.I will have to check.That would be...

What to buy I agree 100% Robbytuck.Most of our appliances are Whirlpool or Whirlpool made and i have not experienced any problem with their products.Yes and the straight vane agitators in their low end machines DO ROLLOVER very well any size washload. Boy,can you tell i'm another WP fan :-) Pat

KM/WP, GE and Maytag's Genetic Splicing Maybe Whirlpool and Maytag should merge and become Maypool.

Whirlpool DD Agitator Lint Filter Hi Pete,my old wp washer had this agitator that lifts off.It was a modular surgilator,the top barrel lifted off to expose a filter in the bottom of the agi barrel.The skirt had 5 vanes on it. I have not seen this on any of wp's washers in a few years.Most of...

I feel the same way also.Old Maytag machines just have that "quality" look about them.The porcelain finishes were better then along with general build quality. Pat

I guess you may be right Appnut. I liked the Frigemores when they first came out and i still do. I guess it all has to do on what you have always been used to. I just was not convinced about the capacity,seems everyone around here who owns one say they can hold just as much or more. I am...

Those machines clean beautifully don't they? Appnut is correct about loading. I only put plates up front and bigger things like cutting boards and bigger pots in the back or along the sides. Even though my Wp has a "power clean module" It is starting to slip a little in cleaning coffee cups and...

Boring Top Loaders Yes i have seen uni's video of his ge harmony.Pretty neat machine. Pat

Hi Ray, I have read your posts and thought of e-mailing you personally.I am still pretty new to this and my only vintage anything is an agitator i grabbed out of an old KM wringer (excellent shape...no way to transport the washer though) :(. It would be great to hear from you. Take care. Pat.

I would think it will probably be only a matter of time before Fridgidaire up's the capacity on their fl washers.I have a KM 90 series washer and i think it cleans great. I can't compare the two types of machine.But i have used tumble washers in laundromats and did not see any improvement over a...

I have seen this machine in sears.The baffles in the drum seem to have been redesigned also.This machine looks to be another winner for Sears.I am seriously thinking of getting a front loader in the near future.With more and more manufactures coming out with fl machines,the more i want to see...

Hi, I wanted to know does this model have the slanted control panel? If it does, i think 67 was the first year WP started with that control panel.I might be interested if i see what style WP this is.Thanks Pat

I agree it is still a washer,...just not as much fun as a belt drive. PC

I used to have a WP dd washer with the super surgilator agitator.That was the one with the 5 vanes on the skirt and the tiny lint filter in the agi. barrel. I found that agitator to have very good consistent rollover action.It also created heaps of suds too!too much sometimes. Jason,was your...

My last washer had the super surgilator with the 5 vanes on the skirt and the tiny lint filter in the agitator barrel.That agitator had really good turnover in my machine. Jason was your machine a 24" model? Maybe the narrower tub impedes the rollover. Anyhow those DD surgilators really cause...

This new format is great. Thanks again Robert for all your efforts<br PC

Congratulations Greg, what a beauty that combo is.Looking forward to seeing pics of the machine going through it's paces. Happy washing! PC

Looks brand new! Have fun with it.
