Laundry Room Makeover - Frigidaire Style!

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

Help Support :

Thanks guys - it's surprising how much work it is to "move this over there and this over here..." it takes hours to move washers and dryers! Each one has to be un-hooked, moved, reconnected, levelled, on and on...

No new floor, same painted mess that has always been in there. In fact, I was surprised at how nice it looked in the pics - in real-time it's scratched and scraped up pretty bad.

Steve, I think the Frigidaire dryer is such a great dryer because of the lower air-flow. My 68 Frigidaire was the same design. Less amounts of air moving through the dryer tends to be not as harsh on the clothes, they may take a little bit longer to dry, but the softness is worth it.
 
very cool!

Every time I see those control towers I like them more. What a shame they were only made for a year, and so long ago too! Nothing today is so cool looking!
Beautiful basement Greg, I am looking forward to seeing it in person!
 
Showroom Style

Wow, thats a Showroom Sheen or what, looking FAB, please tell me the Maytags still exist??

Too all of you out there starting off with a corner in a basement, spare room or just just having found the "One" appliance you`ve always wanted and think you wont get another...

Please set yourself the goal of equipping the room with power, water & decorations....its easier to add appliances to a georgous "ready to move into room" than ship it all out when you had 5 and now its 55.....ohh, how do I know that!!!!

Wonderful display Greg, hope to see it in person sometime. Doing my laudry room over as my winter project. How many of the washers and dryers can you run at once? I can run all my washers at once, but only one elect dryer and a gas dryer so far........the limits of electricity!
 
Wow...a room devoted entirely to Frigidaire!!!

Excellent arrangement Greg, with the Control Towers sitting at their "throne" on the back wall!!! Like Steve said, I hope you didn't kick the WO-65 and TR-60 out to make from for everything else!! Definitely much different than it looked during the Convention...perhaps you should post some pictures of your whole basement and what has changed recently? :)

That's a cool Frigidaire to the right of the '59 dryer, with the bug-eye controls...what year is this machine from? ;-)

Entering Greg's basement is like stepping back in time, and walking into a 1950's or 1960's appliance showroom...definitely breathtaking when you haven't seen it before!!!
 
Don't worry anyone, the Maytag 906's are safe and sound hibernating for the time being in the spare bedroom downstairs. I should start a B&L (Bed and Laundry), how many other places can you go and have a Maytag washer for a vanity??

Jimmy, the power situation is rather slim in that room, you can run one unimatic and another machine at the same time but unless you time the unimatics properly, you can't run them both together. Only one of the Filtrators can be plugged in at the same time, but why would anyone want to run more than one anyway?

The other three machines behind the wall, 49 Westinghouse, 64 Hotpoint and 60 GE are still where they were in June but I've moved some things around in the other room and will take some pics in the next few days.
