Frigemática Dryer

Hey Austin.
Frigipools or Whirlydaires is cool. But the right name is Frigemática. Really!!!

Dona Flor and her two appliances

My best shot at a translation:

"A lot of water has to go under the bridge before a pair like this shows up. Frigidaire machines wash by agitation and damp dry by spinning. It's equipped with a water level selector, temperature selector and a filter that removes lint and other impurities. In less than an hour, clothing is clean and ready for the dryer."
"This dryer can handle 5 kg of wet clothing. When clothing is dry, machine shuts off automatically. Put this pair to work in your laundry room. And relax."

Are dryers very common-place in Brazil?
Mostly gas or electric?

Te he he he I think it is funny how we (of all people) who understand re-badging are so amazed at how and when it takes place elsewhere, when it is new(s) to us.

Dang, I just cant believe my eyes, Whirlmore as a Frigidaire?
It' time to wash Thelma.......

Mother always said keep your kitty cat clean clean clean!

Ooopsie, Glenn did I just make/say a BIG faux pas?

 

[gyrafoam]

Thelma does not look happy!

Funny how Frigidaire worked a deal with Whirlpool. Who knew?

Imagine the shock we would have if visiting in Brazil back in 1970, walking into an appliance store to browse around and spying the Frigidaire/GM named appliances-----and opening the lid!!!!

It's not the rebadging Toggle, that's fine, it’s just the very idea of a belt-drive Whirlpool with the GM Frigidaire name on it, it’s positively scandalous!

I stand ever so humble and chastize myself.

(*smack* to me!)

Thats one way to improve the 1-18!! LOL!! (Ducking and running for cover)

 

[jasonl]

So could you call them "BORING FRIGIDAIRE"?

(disappears)

 

[rickr]

I was thinking more like "Dependable Frigidare" (now running very fast!!)

 

[Unimatic1140]

Yes Jason, I completely agree with you, that would a perfect name for the Brazilian GM Frigidaire.
