Listing for a Milwaukee friend. Bought in good condition, thought someone might be interested. I usually see efficiency sizes in electric, this was a new one on me. http://milwaukee.craigslist.org/app/3827102023.html

I've a 1999 Crosley Heavy Duty 20 washer. I understand it's a rebadged Norge. Once I got it up on some "independent suspension" so it wasn't digging a hole through the linoleum (softish frame floor/old house) it's worked beautifully EXCEPT for sometimes I get COPIOUS amounts of lint in the...

I came across this interesting video on youtube of a washer with no central agitator: Instead it has vanes around the outer periphery of the tub that move back and forth. It also fills by weeping through the tub perforations, which I found quite unique. Was there ever such a washer marketed...

hought someone might totally geek out at the lazy susan and TURQUOISE INTERIOR... http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/app/3421511298.html http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/app/3421511298.html

I'm finally using my (17.5" wide) GE undercounter mini-dishwasher, thanks to you guys, after living in this rental for the past 8 years... Lo and behold: No sink of dirty dishes for a week plus; no "escapees" hiding out in the bedroom, livingroom, bathroom. I am slowly turning domestic and my...

I haz the dumz I've had a problem with the cold water on my 99 Crosley HD (Norge components, I'm told, FYI)... It's been a trickle forever, and I always assumed that it was a problem with the pipe, since it started right after the neighbor had some plumbing work done on their laundry room...

So, I'm currently working on selling the "Classic cars" I bought to restore and "kind of" have gotten around to. They take too much work, and are too big to store easily, and my landlord is getting tired of them.... SO: Transferring my love of vintage things to, of course, WASHING MACHINES...

Ok... I posted recently how I came back from Boston with a Regina Electrikbroom that was rescued from a demise in a dumpster, having lived a lonely life of non-use in a (now deceased) hoarder's house. I was delighted with my find, cause lets face it: ANYTHING that helps me clean my house is...

Thanks to Gordon the Kenmore God... I've reconnected with one of the holy grail machines of my youth: 63 Kenmore series 70 W & D in Coppertone. (Don't want the collection, just want to see them again... kind of like a visual treasure hunt)... The second machine on my list is Western Auto...

Could one of you mechanical chemical geniuses (I mean that non-sarcastically) please explain suds lock? How would something as weak as a soap bubble slow down something as strong as an electric motor driven washing machine?

I was in Boston last week, and visited a house with two TOL maytags (still going wanting a home tuit suite!...see my post in Imperial)... anyhoo. The house belonged to a very nice guy who was unfortunately a hoarder, and my friend is settling the estate. Anyway, as he was showing me the place...

A friend is dispersing an estate int he Cambridgeport, MA area. One of the flats had this control panel sitting on top of the unrelated stove. Anyone know to what it belongs? Anyone interested in it for free? The house is going for sale this upcoming weekend, and that's not the deadline, but...

A friend is helping dispersing an estate in Cambridgeport, MA. These Maytags are available. The washer is missing the front panel (but it might be there, hidden... You have to look). I turned on the washer and all the cycles seemed to work, and the spin cycle sounded normal. The house will...

So I assume the vast majority of users on this site are men (and a goodly percentage are gay... figured that one out, too)... so here's the question... Many of the appliances we love: The washers, dishwashers, vacuums, etc etc were mostly designed by men, to be used by women. Often times...

Are there any vids of anyone actually USING the scrubber cap on a vintage Kenmore agitator? Did they actually work, or was it just a neat looking gimmick?

Ok... here's a question for you all. Thinking of starting the search for a vintage machine, something with a lot of character that will stand up to being a "daily driver"... In your opinion, what machines clean really heavily soiled clothing the best? I work horses, and professionally, I am a...

I have an approx 10 year old Crosley Heavy Duty 20 top loader model, that I actually quite like, which is advantageous as it came with the rental, but it has one odd trait: There is no catch basin in the washroom, and the drain hose goes directly into an open pipe end... During the final rinse...
