I just pulled this beauty out of mothballs to use as my daily driver. So far, I'm thrilled with its performance. I bought it about 5 years ago and I think I tested it to see if it worked but now that my "trusty" LG has temporarily( I hope) shit the bed, I decided I needed another capacious machine to do the week's wash. One unexpected surprise: AFAIK these 1-18's had a top spin speed of 650 rpm but as I was taking this machine through its paces I swear I heard a solenoid "CLUNK" during the first spin and then noticed the tub wind up to what I consider solid-tub rollermatic speeds. Did some of these machines have an enhanced spin???
