Frigidaire Custom Imperial Flowing Heat Dryer (DCIF-62) Cleve, OH

[mab44107]

Free to a good home if you come and get it. This dryer is in working condition but the door is hard to open and it gets too hot to trust with my modern fabrics. Sorry it's white but it does have turquoise colored controls. I've decided that I don't want to keep it but I can't bear to scrap it.

Man, I would love this dryer.

Anyone heading west through Ohio in the next month or so?

Somebody should definitely get this dryer....especially since it's FREE and also a working vintage appliance.

It would be a total shame to see it go to the beyond.

Ben, I hope you'll get it!

If no one has already taken it, I will. I just need to arrange transport if Mab44107 can hang on to it until then. I tried to email but the "address" comes back as not valid.

 

[swestoyz]

Mab44107, I may have found a way to get this dryer from Ohio to Iowa. I'll shoot you a message with some details.

If you don't get it, let me know. This dream machine cannot go to waste.

 

[mab44107]

Thanks for the inquiries regarding the dryer. I'm in the process of moving and I'm away from my computer for long periods of time so your patience is appreciates while I sort through my emails. I had hoped I hit the jackpot when I stumbled across this forum but I underestimated how quickly I'd get responses. Needless to say, I'm pleased to find so many people who appreciate old appliances. It was a tough decision to let it go.

Has anyone heard anything back yet form this seller?

 

[swestoyz]

Not yet. A mate to the dryer is patiently waiting in my basement, LOL.

Specs

Does anyone know the dimensions on this dryer: width, depth, height, & the weight, too? I am looking for quotes for shipping & I want to be as close as possible.

Thanks.

 

[swestoyz]

Did you hear back on it?

 

[brainardcooper]

Yes

She emailed me today. If you want it, go get it. She says it is in the garage of her new house. I did the "Uship" thing to get quotes. I just didn't want it to get trashed. Let me know.

Eh, you heard back first, go for it! It's not like I have space in my basement these days anyway.

[brainardcooper]

If you are sure

I don't want any hard feelings against me (Plus, if I didn't have to spend $600.00 for shipping that would be okay, too...).

Well, even Hubby doesn't have to remind me that when this sign on the road to our house in Ogden goes up that the 'collecting season' is over... Well at least until next spring...

It's now in my garage, Model DIA-62. so I guess 1962? It says FLOWING HEAT and it has a flourescent light console! It was plugged in and running when I picked it up

3 GM frigidaires home and running

A Detroit gentleman posted a few weeks ago that his 1978 1-18 started to leak at age 34, he wasn't sure he could or wanted to fix it. I emailed him, made a deal, and got his MATCHED SET. He and his bride bought in May 78, he's done minor repairs and kept them in darn fine shape for 34 years...

Akronman - enjoyed the links and viewing your 1-18 and w/d - I'm still getting familiar with all these units..with the lid open, "Jet-Action" caught my eye. LOL! Jet Action - it was fun growing up in the jet age, as others here probably know. Congrats to brainardcooper (Brian?) on picking up the dryer...free!
