Hi Matty, Thanks for the link. I just jumped online a ordered the stainless steel spinner. Very excited. Really looking forward to it arriving next week. Simon

Just taken my LG truesteam off the pedestal. During the spin it would vibrate across the laundry room floor during most cycles. Now firmly on the floor it is much more stable and seems to spin without too much vibration and no creeping. I also took the smoked plastic cover off the door so now...

Hi Paul, as turbomatic says, it is really easy to remove the agitator and then unscrew the bolts that hold the inner tub to the drive shaft. Use plenty of WD40 to lubricate before you attempt to remove the bolts and ensure you have the correct size socket or spanner. In my old filer flo there...

Hi Allan, thanks for the brochure. Really brought back memories. We had one of those in the early 80s. My mum really wanted a top loader after we had a trip to visit relatives in Australia. She really liked the cold water washing thing. My aunt had a big old Simpson. So when back home and the...

my laundry room Hey Mike, yes I do have some pics and here they are. I am pleased with the way the laundry room has turned out. I have a second room also in the basement with the older GE and Simpson and Maytag washers

Hi guys, Just finished renovating my Hoover twin tub. Pump had seized up and a few minor leaks. Got this one on eBay a few years back. The Australian model with no water heater. I used to love using my Mum's wash dog in the 70s in the UK when i was a kid. The one with the built in fill hose...

Thanks for the explanation Al. I was wondering if the pump runs all the time the motor is running, does the water recirculate back in to the tub during washing? I wouldn't think that when the empty pipe is attached at both ends it would be like a dead end. Surly that would not be good for the...

Hoover single tub emptying Hi guys, this is a really interesting thread. I have memories of neighbours having the single tub and spinner side by side. My mum had a hot point twin tub with the same solid arm that pumped from the spinner in to the sink. How does the single tub empty? I know...

Tide Downey in Au. Well Rod, you are correct, Tide Downy down to a little over $10 brings it in to line with Aussie products. Sorry Rapunzal, I admire your sentiment re the Coles / Woolies monopoly here in Australia but I had to buy a couple. I suspect Coles will stop selling it soon. I do...

Thanks for the info Rod, I will have to check out my local Coles. I do love the smell of Tide Downey.

Hey Leon, very nice machine. Aside the control panel looks virtually the same as the F&P intuitive which was the first washer I brought when I arrived in Australia. Great machine and still going very strong. Yours has a faster spin and bigger capacity I believe. The recirculation and the little...

All very interesting replies. I think cutting cost of manufacture and other options for removing lint lead to the demise of the filter flo. I have two fisher and paykel tl machines with no filtering aside lint getting trapped in the outer tub. They wash really well but not as exciting as the...
