Malcolm...... Thanks much for the info! I got a good sense of the quality of SQ machines talking with the tech support guy yesterday - and I asked a lot of questions on materials used, how they build the machines, longevity etc. I definitely intend to get a SQ washer and dryer next time around...

Thanks John....... Kinda thought they would be a little on the pricey side - but anything, generally speaking, that is that well built would be expected to cost a little more than lesser brands. Thanks again for the info.

John L........ What are prices like (in general) for the TL, FL and dryers? I'm considering the Stainless Steel version FL and dryer - just wondering what to expect. Can an individual buy direct from the factory? Thanks much!

Hey guys I have a query about Speed Queen washers and need some feedback. Do you consider the current day Speed Queen washers to be of good mechanical quality and long lasting? My 2008 GE FL washer is currently about to give me issues either the bearing or the spider..... possibly both and it's...

Tim - I checked the date........ Date on the West Bend percolator is showing 4/1960 - 53 years old and works like new! It's actually an aluminum pot made to look like copper (West Bend Aluminum Company) which really gives it a nice vintage look with the brown Bakelite base and handle. Very...

Will do Pat...... I've not run it this winter so don't know how it will respond - it's not been restored yet but planning on it at some point. It's a bit cold in the garage right now but when the weather breaks later I'll make a point to do the vid. You've had the extreme cold just like we have...

Just perc'd up a pot of coffee in this copper Westbend percolator that I found sitting in a storage room in one of the older seldom used areas of the building at my church here in Knoxville, Tennessee. Cleaned/washed it and put it to work. Thought I would post a photo of it - my wife is the...

This is what my wife and I started with back in the mid 90s. Actually a decent low end Kenmore washer and dryer. We put ours through hell durning the early years of our marriage - kids at home and laundry running, at times, morning, noon and night. My wife had these 3 or 4 years before we met...

Found this on Craigslist out of Nashville,TN - not they kind I'm looking for but someone might want to get this one for a good clean-up/fix up project. I'm still looking for the elusive 1956 Westinghouse Deluxe slant front washer and dryer. http://nashville.craigslist.org/ele/3540854368.html

Westinghouse commercial featuring my Dream Machines....... Found this Westinghouse commercial on YouTube from 1956 featuring my Dream Machines - the 1956 Westinghouse Laundromat Deluxe and its matching Clothes dryer. This is the exact same set that my mom's mother had and, as I've mentioned...

Tremondous........ A tremondously beautiful set that looks like it came right out of the box brand new! Bob you're right on the dryer - my grandmother had a 1956 Laundromat Deluxe and matching dryer and she didn't use the dryer much at all - mostly the cold winter months and I don't remember...

I think your right......... I believe these baby 'tags are Samsung or possibly Panasonic. I've seen some Panasonic dryers in the past with the lint screen in the door like this one. I actually like the idea of the screen in the door but if you like watching the clothes tumble it doesn't work...

2nd on dishwasher Inside. Actually a standard size tub rather than the tall tub I mentioned above. Top rack is deep with plenty of room for large loads of dishes.

Now a couple on the dishwasher Outside

The series of photos upcoming were taken at a chalet my wife and I are staying at this weekend. Set of modern "baby" Maytags in the laundry that I've put to good use so far this weekend. Also a newer GE dishwasher - large/tall plastic tub but cleans well. My wife and I are celebrating 16...

Don't have the photos but........ My dream daily driver set if doing all over again is the 1956 Westinghouse Laundromat Deluxe and its matching Clothes dryer. Chances of ever finding an intact pair in good shape is now next to impossible but, one never knows - perhaps a set shows up somewhere...

Neat set - I already own an older set......... Speaking of the WW SpaceMates - I've been wanting to stack my dryer on top of the washer but need two items to make that happen. I need the brackets to attach the dryer to the washer and a top for the dryer so it's not setting open for things to...

Congrats on the dream find............. I'm still looking for the elusive 1956 Deluxe Set - I would gladly give up the two vintage machines I have if I could find my dream set from '56. It's hard find to say the least and several years searching have been unsuccessful - but the search will...
