Just a request...

I'm really enjoying this thread but can we please start a new one? This thread takes FOREVER to load because of all the pics...

Thanks!

Well my intention was to keep all the research I did on the Filter-Flo under one "roof" so it wood be easy to access for someone like me who only a few months ago didn't know much about the inner workings of the washer. And not have to bounce around from thread to thread to get up to speed. Jus sayn.

Cool GE SpotScrubber Ad

Don't ask me why, but I think I bought these. I'll know tomorrow at 1pm.

Looks like the Xtra Large capacity tub and the large capacity ramp agitator with the extension. 2-speed.

They are Almond in color. I didn't have a chance to ask if they have the filter pan or mini basket, but luckily I have a set on hand if they don't.

I woke up today after a restless night of sleep with a gnawing feeling in my stomach and realized I just didn't need another washer/dryer set sitting around. I reluctantly called the seller and told her I was gonna pass on them. I guess I need to stop having a knee-jerk reaction every time I see a Filter-Flo for sale. I can't save them all.

Alex,

 

Some of your GE literature is wonderful. Thank you for posting it. Love the chiquita with the 1958 machines.

technolpolis - It's a good thing you don't have a warehouse, like some of the aw.org members do, you might end up with a museum, full of ads and graphic signs, memorabilia...centering around Maytag. The Madison, GA Bubblecar museum, we recently visited, reminded me of those who have huge w&D collections, among other appliances. Your graphics are entertaining, as usual - that one with Interstate 30 - thought of Route 66 that I was lucky to use, before the freeway replaced it completely.

Museum Information

It's funny, I am a huge fan of the bubble cars.

These little lid bumpers are keen to getting the lid to close quietly and prevent rust inducing metal-to metal contact. Also protects the paint from wearing away. I got a few extra to keep on hand since many of the Filter-Flo's I've come across no longer have them.

Bubble Car Museum In Georgia

Smitty and I visited this museum a few years ago and it was fantastic, I highly recommend it to anyone that is a fan of post WW-2 mini-cars.
