    Speed Queen TC5 Tub Lean

    I have a 2015 AWN432 and it has always leaned like that on a full load, it’s not quite as bad on small or medium size loads. It seems the lean is worse now than when it was new. But yes, I’m concerned about the excessive lean. Speed Queen T/L seems to wash better with medium to small loads, in...

    POD 4.29.22

    Philco washers were not very common, think I saw only 1 or 2 when I was a kid back in the 60’s. Was wondering who was their distribution network, who sold them? I do not recall seeing them in any Dept store. I know they were tied to the Ford Motor Co. I recall seeing one in a household, again...

    POD April 27, 2022 Norge compact washer and dryer

    Those were quite sharp looking machines. I was wondering what size capacity they would hold. The ad advertises the hydro sweep agitators, would they have made a smaller version agitator for smaller tub?? I wonder if it was a burpalator. The whole unit was nice looking. Barry

    If Forced To Choose Only One Modern Major Appliance

    I’d have a washer. I wash a lot of dishes by hand, it’s just myself here at the house, unless I’m doing a lot of cooking or not feeling well.

    A New Signature Addition Coming Soon!

    Wow!!! I hope you can get it up and running very soon, and get the wringer fixed. I did not know wringer washers had lint filters, that’s new to me. I’m wondering how it works. Barry

    Salvo

    The original Salvo laundry tablets had the best smell, it was a clean smell. It was my favorite. Am wondering what this dish detergent smells like, and if it cuts grease. Some of the dish soaps have such a strong fragrance to them now....ie, Palmolive. Barry

    POD 3.19.22 Redesigned Frigidaire

    Glenn, That post surprised me! Perhaps reliability was better than what I remembered. That must have been a later design, agitator is different. I like the avacado green. This looks to be a TOL model. Barry

    POD 3.19.22 Redesigned Frigidaire

    Was there ever a more hated washer? The most disappointing in design? Why, oh why? Felt it was basically a Westinghouse, maybe larger capacity though. I wonder how well these held up, reliability. It would have been interesting to see a comparison in cleaning ability compared to the old...

    Powder Detergent Jackpot

    It’s always wonderful to discover a treasure trove in stores that you don’t expect. Last year I found powdered Oxydol at Dollar General in the $1.00 aisle. Should have bought every box they had. I missed trying the Cheer Bright & Clean powder. Very proud of you for walking away without buying...

    Need A New Dryer

    Hey Guys! Hope all is doing well with everyone. My 17 year old Whirlpool dryer is biting the dust. It’s making loud thumping noises and running rough. This is especially noticeable if I attempt to dry a heavy load (like towels) so I cut load size in half to lessen the weight, then the thumping...

    POD 2.23.22 Gibson Laundry

    Gibson! I remember seeing these as prizes on The Price Is Right back in the day, in fact I think they were frequent showcase prizes. I remember seeing only one of these as a kid at some Dept store. They had it hooked up to demonstrate. I remember the tub was huge and the agitator was...

    The sound of GE made Filter Flo, and Rim Flo

    My Mom had a near TOL GE back in 1986 or so, it had the ramped activator with mini basket, I thought it was a nice machine though at the time I questioned its cleaning ability. That washer plus the Tide that she was most faithful, it did produce fantastic clean clothes. She had that washer for...

    Largest Capacity washer ever made

    I was referring to the 20 lb Norge as it was. in my mind, the largest that I knew of. Like Glenn stated, today’s machines would probably make mincemeat of the older ones. Bigger does not always equal better though. Barry

    Largest Capacity washer ever made

    Good question!! Are you talking current line up or vintage? Just because a manufacture advertised largest capacity does not mean cleaning ability scored well at say 20 lbs, would think you’d have to take that into account. Also clothing wear & tear. Certainly the old Norge 20 lb top load was...
