    Pot Scruber III + parts - Never Installed GSD1000-02

    Thanks for info... It would be great for collector, just finding right person looking for vintage. Not too many people would install in modern kitchen, although it would right alongside my vintage washer in the basement. And hate to junk.

    Pot Scruber III + parts - Never Installed GSD1000-02

    I like old vintage stuff too... something about the simplistic style and durability... Not sure what to do with this thing... install it or sell it to someone that appreciates it (whatever its worth), or donate it to habitat store (not worth my time searhcing for right person). Or what the...

    New SQ vs. Maytag DC vs. Whirlpool DD

    I agree, can't necessarily compare warranties for older machines, especially for DIYers, or washer enthusiasts, that don't mind patiently scavenging craigslist for those certain jewel models or rescuing off curb for cheap, or free. Worth considering if looking at used dealer prices. Seems...

    New SQ vs. Maytag DC vs. Whirlpool DD

    see these debates popping up in other threads so thought I'd create a thread for it The Alliance Speed Queen seems to be most agreed new washer to purchase for its simplicity and durabilty.. Have to admit, I like idea of getting one, but maybe thats the vintage/nastalgic side of me.. Some...

    Speed Queen - Are belts a common prob

    I do plan to keep the old Maytag operational. I agree, don't think we'll ever find 1970's durabilty in any of new machines, even a TOL FL. However I'm also in need of larger capcity with fam of 5. Changing belts ~3-5yrs sounds lot better than possbile clutch, gearbox, bearings or seals from...

    Maytag A206 Timer needed

    It worked, just intermittently stalled starting spin, or would not turn off at end of cycle. Removed contact pad that had burned off and cleaned what was left. Last 3 loads cycled fine. $85 not bad, just thought I'd ask the guys here who like to rescue these vintage machines and may have...

    Maytag A206 Timer needed

    I took it apart and has couple burnt contacts. Probably could rebuild it if I could find the contact strips. Thought someone here might have one. Thanks.

    Speed Queen - Are belts a common prob

    Belts really aren't big deal, just wondering extent of 'issue'. Doubt I'll ever find another set to run ~40 yrs. The last Newton MT DC sound good but they are already ~15 years old. Then there's thought of the dozens of cheap used WP DD setups being traded in for HE units.
