Maytag Atlantis

[kenmore_elite]

I recently found an early Maytag Atlantis sitting outside a hardware store. I got it for free. I put new hinge bushings in it, so the lid switch could operate properly and IT'S ALIVE!!!! What I love about this one is it is the old-style that its NOT a smart-washer. You can set your water level any way you want. I also put a new lid switch in it, just to be safe. Pictures to follow once it stops raining--it's sitting out on my back deck covered with a tarp.

It looks like this one. (This one's not mine)

Looks like the picture didn't post. Trying again:

Nice find! I’ve always liked these Herrin platform Maytags. I got to use one that I replaced the center gear in the transmission on a few months ago, and it was one of he best performing washers I’ve ever used.
