Dave thanks for posting that video. That video is awesome I love the way it was done. It was fun to watch and those machines look absolutely brand new. Are those the ones in the picture that I posted?
Yes Jason they are.[this post was last edited: 4/15/2020-10:31]

I would guess that All push button style of washer has the same set up that my dishwasher has. It is all pushbutton also and when you select your cycle you can hear the timer rapidly advancing to whatever cycle you selected before it starts.

ding?
Should my '59 Maytag model 142 ding like that at the end of the cycle? I don't recall seeing a bell! LOL

HOLY CRAP, Dave, What a great find!
So Ya think Ya might die without ever seeing a 906 in operation and here is the whole experience dissected down to the first bone. Egads! This "brthdan" creator, is it member "qsdan," I wonder? What a surprise, what a treat; it really is a 906 extravaganza, no hyperbole here.
Pause at 0:13 to read the timer motor legend. What a cool new name for the spray rinse:
SPIN WITH FILL. Love it.
Thank you so much, Dave and "brthdan."
PS: My 806 S rings the bell, too! LOL
John, if they were made today, there sure would be no shortage of customers; you'd need several thousand just for Aworg members.

I think the ding in the video is end of the dryer cycle, not the washer.
IIRC, someone snagged a Coppertone 906 set years ago. They ended up in the possession of Red Carpet Drew.

Wre those the same as
the set on the Beverly Hillbillies? The consoles do look the same. Mechanical Rapid advamce timers were so cool.

I thought so, too, and what.....
A great irony: the once poor, wild and crazy hicks suddenly had a TOL 906 Pushbutton Maytag,
probably because they wouldn't know how to work the all the controls on lower end models, LOL.
Oh wait, sorry Clampetts, my apologies, I was thinking of Lisa Douglas on "Green Acres." DUH! She's the one who couldn't work anything.

I don’t know model numbers like a lot of the people on here do. But I’m pretty sure that the ones on the Beverly hillbillies were The older versions. Like the DE701 and A700 only with all push button.

It’s crazy but I can’t even seem to find any pictures of a 906 set on the Internet. I had to look pretty diligently just to find the picture I posted above. And that was the only decent one I could find. I’m was really looking for a avocado set but I don’t think it exists LOL.
I'm not sure, but I think the Clampett's got a newer set (06) in the later episodes.

Oh OK I guess that is possible. I don’t think I have seen the later episodes. I have some of the earlier episodes on DVD. They are definitely old they are still in black and white LOL.

Yeah, must have been the A 900, or even its the predecessor, the A 160; at least we all remember the all-pushbutton aspect.
Jason, If Dan qsd-dan comes back to the thread, he might treat us with some more 906 pics.
