    Today's POD 12/16/17 Suds-Miser

    Leave it to the marketing wizards at Whirlpool to come up with a system to turn your washer into a cesspool. Oh yeah, the suds look pretty and white, yet the water down under is dirty, dark and gray and teaming with cooties. Yuck! I know there are people who swear by this system and others who...

    POD 11/11/17 Kelvinator

    Beautiful set. I have not seen the dryer in operation, however, when I see one of the washers I think of Greg's. All lit-up like a beautiful juke-box. There was a tremendous non-agitated overflow at the beginning of the rinse that must have put fifteen gallons over the side! I think this would...

    POD 11/08/17 Westinghouse Top-Loader

    I remember these very well. They were pretty quiet, and thorough washing machines. The agitation was pretty aggressive, though, so I understand why they came out with that double-dong agitator. They were prone to sudz-lock as were most machines of this era. The stupid lid-lock was an annoyance...

    Nice Unused Manual Maytag N2L for sale----

    on Ebay. Flat-Rate for shipping is a better deal than the asking price for the machine! They are only new once. Here's a link...

    POD 08/31/17

    This machine would do about everything you would ever need. Only thing I would change is the agitator. I would drop a spiral Activator and Mini-Basket in it and be happy as a clam. I always thought the GE 18 lb. tub was kind of on the small side. Doesn't appear to hold much more than a...

    POD 07/20/17

    It certainly did need all Seven Rinses----especially if she is using the usual high-sudzing detergents of that era. Whirlpool/Kenmore's in those days were very prone to sudz-lock----especially with a load of heavy fabrics such as towels. I think this was the era that Whirlpool was installing...

    SQ Pump

    A few weeks ago the pump on my late 60's SQ (MA-62) suddenly seized. I'm glad I was standing right there. In SQ's of this era the pump is constantly running if the machine is on, so it gets a work-out with every single load. In just the few seconds it took for me to react and shut it down a...

    More Vintage Machines to go!

    GE Dryer saw little use----except for the container that made a mark sitting on the top for so long! Some pin-point spots of surface rust as cabinet is not enamel. Drum is enamel and like new. I think it just needs a repaint and maybe a bit of zoom-spout here and there. A couple of KAid Parts...

    **FREE** Vintage Appliances------------

    Clearing out the warehouse. Here's the first group. From left to right in photos: TWO Frigidaire (Re-Badged Hamilton) Electric Dryers Model# TU-60 Internally, both in pretty good shape. One spent it's days right next to an old gas furnace and the cabinet needs re-finishing. The pretty one was...

    POD 02/13/17

    Now, THAT'S a "diaper washer" for sure! Holds maybe a 10lb load? Must be a Beam design. Would be great to find one of those NIB.[this post was last edited: 2/13/2017-10:43]

    POD 11/09/16 Joy of a Supermatic-----

    is in the entertainment factor. I am lucky enough to have one in minty condition. It is the most time I have ever spent tinkering with this type of Maytag. My observations are; that the capacity is limited. The powerful Gyratator tends to get splashy if there are bulky items such as slacks or...

    Question for the vintage Norge macherim-----

    I have two solid-tub machines. One is (what appears to be) an early "Timeline" (BOL) "Diaper-Washer" Model# AW-425, Serial# 112808. The other one is a MOL (2-speed) model that appears to be a mid-60's. Model# 221-370-0, Serial# W-970075. Anyone know the years they were built?

    (80's looking) Amana Wringer in New Jersey

    Looks like a re-badged Speed Queen. Bidding has closed, but you can still send the seller a message. Seller is VERY motivated to move it out so forget about that "starting bid"! I'm sure you can make a good deal and the machine looks to be in great condition...

    Calling Jason Surgilator_68!

    The questions are: Is the Cabrio/Bravos washer any good at all? Does it wash good? Better than a Collapse-O? Easy on fabrics? What about the internal components? Usual cheap Chinese plastic crap? How's the reliability so far? Do you advise an extended warranty? In your opinion, would this...
