New to me Filter Flo (and my first one)! This popped up on one of the vintage appliance groups on Facebook, and it wasn’t far from my partner’s home in GA. I called and the shop owner was out, but didn’t feel comfortable with their associate doing a credit card transaction with their new...

I’m missing the one on my control panel.

To temper the good news on the Maytag dryer the ‘61 or ‘62 Washer is currently having an issue that we have yet to be able to fix. The seal on the bleach dispenser was absolutely shot, and we’ve bought and created a couple of O-rings, slipped a rubber rand around the indentation underneath the...

We’re working on an early 60s Maytag dryer (among other things) and 3 of the four gas door pegs were missing, and the door was just laying inside. I got some nylon screws/spacers and nuts, and it’s holding tightly and flawlessly.

I just picked up a (MUCH) rougher than the pictures GE Spacemaker refrigerator, TC469WF. The seller indicated that the evaporator fan motor had failed and required replacing. I wasn’t paying attention and ordered a new condenser fan. (The same repair that we made to the ‘60 GE) This seems to...

The price is more in the realm of restored appliances, but it is a very high end Frigidaire range, embodying the Sheer Look. https://dayton.craigslist.org/app/d/dayton-mcm-range-frigidaire-pink/7377768246.html

My parents neighbors have a very high end time capsule house with the exception of their refrigerator. It was built in 1963 and has an Americana range. I told them I’d help them hunt down a refrigerator if at all possible. Hinges on the right/handle on the left is the preferred arrangement...

It’s a project dishwasher. The cabinet does have some rust around the seal, but it’s not gotten to the point that it’s unsalvageable. The motor on the other hand will need to be repaired or replaced. The racks are pretty nice. I got this to match my refrigerator, but I’m going to use a...

So...the felt seal on the Halo of Heat is NLA, and the only ones out there are $35-$38. At an inch wide, that makes the felt over $1200 a yard. I think not. I went to Michael’s, found some coordinating 100% Wool Felt and felting needles and made my own. If Volvoguy87 can find the high heat...

I’d love to get the dual coil, automatic burner functioning, but it seems like that may just be a dream. I see people talking about converting to the piano keys or to infinite heat, but I can’t find any information on the how or what is needed. If you convert to infinite heat, can you still...

I picked up a 1956 Frigidaire Sherwood Green Frigidaire range, because I thought I was turquoise. :/ Anyway, we want to get it working but the mechanism for the doors is broken. Anyone have a diagram, pictures, or experience with repairing this? We disassembled it, but one of the springs got...

Has anyone powder coated a range before? I’m looking at ranges and I can’t find what I need in turquoise for anything reasonable. I found what I want in white, could powder coating be the solution? It’s rated to 400 degrees. I can’t imagine the surface of the range is 400 degrees to the touch.

I just recently discovered that some Frigidaire models have vent hoods built in. Are these just recirculating units, or can these be vented outside?

We’re fixing the KDW-4 and one of the metal plates between the motor and gaskets has rusted out. Is this a piece that is a) still available, b) someone has one that they don’t need, c) replaceable with something besides metal? The gaskets are shot too, but that can be an RTV creation if they...

After picking up the Grey easy last weekend, the best optioned twin tub I’ve ever seen came up. This is also a Hupp machine, with timer, on/off, fill/drain faucet, and that’s that? Two speeds! I didn’t even know that was a thing. It’s not quite as nice as the pictures, there are some...

Just picked this guy up from northern Ohio. I’ve never seen a speckled Easy, nor an all grey one. It was manufactured by Hupp, and is VERY bare bones. Any guesses on dates? It seems later, but I don’t know when they switched from Murray to Hupp. I’m missing a couple of the slider tabs if...

I'm having a time trying to find a range. We just got a 1960/61 GE refrigerator, and I've scoured the country, and the only one I can find is on eBay for $1,950, which is untested, and only in okay shape. (They declined my 90% off offer, lol) Please help! The dishwasher is under control, and...

For sale is a Maytag A206/306 set. White, and nearly complete, except for the washer agitator. Talk to Volvoguu87, I think he has a turquoise spare or two and is only a couple of blocks away. The washer will need the transmission oil replaced as it’s gotten thick. (I had to heat up the...

I have a Matched set of white Maytag A206/306s that need a new home. I’m going to be moving and I have a lot of stuff to get rid of. The set is nearly complete, except the agitator for the washer. Talk to Volvoguy87, he’s a few blocks away and may sell one to you. The transmission oil on the...

Hey all, I’m selling off many of my appliances in anticipation of moving. This Maytag was produced in November of 1960. It seems to be be complete, lights up, heats up, but I’d do a tear down and oil/servicing before putting into regular service. The door seal isn’t in great shape. I’m...
