Thanks for the eBay deal! Very interested to see the difference.

Just to cover the bases, my machine agitator that I want up grade is the same as in post #2 - it has the big cylindrical dispenser with wedge/snap green ring. Would my dispenser fit the ones we're talking about? (I don't use it anyway so it's a moot point.) It is a Kenmore Series 80.

Looks like there are variations on this one - the auger is similar but different in post #40. You can see tiny "teeth" on the auger edge - not sure if I like that idea. Looked at your ad, an contemplating purchase...

Does anyone have a Part # for the Kitchen Aid agitator? Is there an equivalent Whirlpool agitator?

I'm like that squirrel pondering a high voltage transfor ...and thinking about getting the Kitchen Aide blue agitator. Trying to find a used appliance "junkyard" locally. Right now I'm using mine with the 4 ratchet pawls removed because the OD edge of the auger has a large slicing component -...

Any comments on that huge gap under the agitator I can get my hand under?

The only Maytag I remember and had was the wringer washer. My aunt upgraded to an automatic maybe around 1980? but I don't remember what the agitator looked like. The circulation was impressive and the agitator made fast, short-stroke "twitching" motion. There were no complaints - she liked...

Let me repeat: I have never had a washing machine damage clothes my entire life until I got this Series 80. In fact, when I first saw this damage, I thought that somehow mice or insects were "eating" my clothes. As far as jeans being worn out. I typically use jeans until the knees tear out...

Another comment on their upper screw agitator action: They use the top "ratcheting" screw/auger agitator to push the cloths down into the bottom reciprocating "radial" agitator. Not totally unlike the the power feed on a shredder. So THEORY #3 is gaining "momentum" the auger pushes the...

Series 80 Super Capacity Plus Full Load Setting Slow/Slow Agitator speed Washing ONLY 3 Jeans Not only will you see a predetermination of knife-like slices, you will see that they range from tiny/faint to large and cut through. And you will see clusters of them. Perhaps the jeans got caught...

Has anyone figured out exactly why they shred? I have a loaded Series 80 and with 3 jeans in it, it will slice them up. There is definitely something very wrong since you can see specific slicing/gnawing marks cutting through the denim. You can also see that most of the time where the slicing...

Shredmore Theory: 5/8" Gap Under Agitator The slotted agitator blades are an unlikely cause for two reasons 1) as people have said, it's a proven design, and 2) the damage to clothing is more of a cutting/slitting action which is not what I would expect from blade slots. However, the large...
