Jamie, I remember those-----glad to see some photo's! So tell us, what is the roll-over like with that agitator---especially with a heavy load?
They sure are a pretty set.

Well, actually, I have yet to wash in them. The washer is having a problem with the water level, tends to use too much on low and overflow on high... What should I do about that? The dryer I won't be usin' for awhile because it is 240 volts, I was expecting 110 Volts. Plus I have to drill a hole in the panel that the other dryer vents out of so I can vent this one. They are beautiful, the pics don't do them justice. The washer is pretty noisy, but not like in that it's squealy and such, but that the motor is just loud and powerful. Can anyone tell me how it works? Does the motor reverse for spinning?

Just beautiful and green just in time for spring. Myra has had those models in her shop from time to time, and she loves them! They were actually a pretty good design for a smaller set.......Photos of them washing please!!!
Jamie, those are beautiful! Glad you will be ablet to use and enjoy them now, congrats!

Congrats Jamie...those are just MINT!!! I'm envious!! That 70's perforated-tub, partial-neutral-drain Norge design is my absolute favorite; and the portable/compact versions are RARE so hang onto these beauties! Can't wait to see them with a load of laundry...I wonder if the compact dryer will turn your basement snow-white like its full-sized brother? ;-)
Considering the set is 32 years old and never-used, it goes without saying that it won't be an immediate "plug & play". The pressure switch set screw might need adjustment...hopefully it's that and not a pinhole in the hose that runs from the switch to the tub. Although even that is an easy replacement.
The Norge washers naturally have a very loud, "throaty" sound during agitation...nothing to worry about. Does it have the "clunking" brake? And does it agitate faster than the solid-tub machines, with a speed comparable to a BD Kenmore? And that agitator is too cool...I'd LOVE to see how the action is! Inquiring minds want to know!!

Thanks Jamie for posting pictures of these.
My Great Grand Mother had this set in White. They were however from Montgomery Wards.
My dad bought them for her because she was still using her wringer washer.
She never wanted to use this set. I would go over to her house, and help her do her laundry in them.
They were a very good set. I wish I would have kept them. What did I know? They really washed well, and I was suprised at how much the washer, and dryer could handle. I agree the washer, and the dryer were loud and noisy, but that made it all so much fun to me.
On your washer where it appears to be black on the control panel. On the Montgomery Wards pair, it was a fake woodgrain.
Thanks for the memories.
I am sure that you will enjoy these when you get them set up, and the bugs worked out.
Sounds like the fill cut off is just stuck. I am sure that it is not a big deal. Might just start working on it's own.

Norge Bradford Set!
Jamie,
This is absolutly awsome. I always liked the 24" models. I realy love the back opening washer lid on these models. At that time Norge had left opening lids. Can we get pictures of the consoles? Is this a burpulator filter model? Is their a softner dispenser? Thanks much and good luck.
