That almost new blue look porcelain basket really gets me. I also like the soak cycle which I wash all washers had. Only thing I would do differently is have it retain the water and go straight into the normal cycle.

How I wish these machines were still in production today but with a modified fill flume for better spray rinsing.

I think that might be around 1975 era

1978. My Parents had this model bought for an apartment they moved into that year. It was paired with the BOL dryer that matched it. They were happy with it. The dryer lasted at least 16 years; the washer had to be replaced after 12 years. Don't remember the cause.

Looks like the washer in the Calgon commercial, there...

That old Calgon ad was funny..."Ancient Chinese Secret"

Hard as they tried, yes, if one knew what one was looking for or at it was a GE Filter-Flow washer and matching dryer.



General Electric must have made stink because commercial for "new and improved" Calgon switched to different laundry appliances in commercial.

The pump is clogged on that Filter-Flo, it's not flowing!

The 2nd Calgon video, tagged as 1972, is a Whirlpool.

Hmmm, I can see how the Whirlpool had that edge over the GE, and how "the man comes on and tells me, how white my shirts could be..."
