John Eich, John Fev, and Jon Char & Other Pros: Need Combo Expertise on GE's 66 Version

Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

Help Support :

HEY MIKEY, TOM, PAUL, JON, JOHN & FRIENDS

Here are some cool Ephemeral verbatim quotes:

From the 57 ~

CAPACITY-- 9 pounds dry clothes for complete cycle. Up to 12 pounds wash only.

AUTOMATIC WATER SAVER-- Automatically measures water level for size of load--maximum range 4 & 1/2 to 9 & 1/2 gallon capacity

From the 59 ~

CAPACITY--8 pounds of dry clothes washed and fully dried on one complete operation.

AUTO W S -- Maximum range 6 & 1/2 to 10 & 1/2 gallon capacity.

Same 26 inch tub with differing weight and water usage values. Interesting. The 66 seems to use 7 & 1/2 gallons consistently, but It's still under study.

In the pic, we're at the 66's 7 & 1/2 max, minus the spillage.

OPERATING SPEED:--

1957: 45 rpm tumble wash and dry, 200 rpm spin

1959: 47 rpm tumble wash and dry, 225 rpm spin

1966: Don't know except that the spin on the Soak Cycle is much slower than Regular, looks to be about 100. Again, clothes are soaking wet.

TOM, what do you make of this variety?

WRONGGUUEE. This one is max as you can see.

Tom, I had forgotten when I created the thread that you know Combos backwards, too. Sorry! Your research and expertise is greatly appreciated, not to mention necessary.

It's so much fun--HONEST ! I feel like a kid on Xmas Morning, and I want you all to enjoy my extravagant toy.

It really is FABulous

Noticed it last week, rounding the corner. The scent is floral and original and satisfying enough to thwart--at least for a while--the search for vintage Dash, Calgon and Gain. Startling experience to smell it, and it gently permeates the room, and you can smell it on the clothes afterwards.

Odd consistency, like baking soda, very fine grind and silky, and dirt cheap--just pennies under three bucks.

For all machines.

3rd Rinse

Can't imagine why I forgot to clip the pic with the door open; must have been daydreaming or something.

Not too sudsy. Later, Dudes & Duchesses!
