Thanks alot Super32. It would be a TRUE miracle to find one and at a next to nothing cost. I'm only apprehensive about the fixed 5 water levels without a RESET option.

I wonder why Maytag didn't think to follow Whirlpool/Kenmore's lead? They were really the only ones that stayed true to their claim regarding capacity size and abillty.

Yogi, I found a FREE Maytag A612 washer.The ad says, "it's 15 years old and it works well". I'm waiting for the owner's reply.

BTW, do you know guys know what a POUND of mixed clothes consist of? I'd like to perform my own test to see just how much the DEEP tub will really be able handle.
 
Scrubflex, the 9900/9904 had 5 fixed levels. BUT, only the 1st, 3rd and 5th, lo/med/hi are metered. Levels 2 and 4 are timed. The machine would time its self filling to the 1st and 3rd. Then estimate how long it should take to get to 2 and /or 4. It usually worked well but if the water presure drops for any reason, it would come up short. On the other hand if the pressure rises, it would overfill on levels 2 and 4. Also if you set it on the lowest (1st) level, it would automaticlly default to slow agitate, reguardless of cycle setting. It still was an awsome machine tho.
 
scrubflex....

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you for the free machine...can't beat it.....as for a pound of clothes, it was always hard to say exactly, considering the like of a fluffy comforter has little weight, best thing I do is my laundry baskets are the small 1 bushel size, add assorted clothes till a small mound forms on top, this is for a regular capacity machine, 1 1/2 of this is for a large capacity, now for my calypso, I add three of these small baskets, thats a foolproof way for me to wash, loads can't always be exactly the same like in a laboratory test...but the basket always allows for the same type of consistent results...try it!

and Super32...my guy was a cable repair man...and like you the offers were often, men and women, especially when they sit on the couch and all luggage is not stowed away!...lol...you must have stories yourself....how can a man like you be single for long?....lol
 
Super32, how would you set the fast agitation speed for the wash cycle you want? Also, if you wanted to wash an 'extra large' load in between the 'super' and 'large' settings, could you set it at the higher level until the water reaches the place you want and set it back.
