My little impromptu Wash-In (and my first time hosting!!)

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

Are you talking about the 3 coil water valve with hot

Oops, yeah, that's what I meant. I thought those water valves went out with the 00 and 02 series machines in '65.
 
love your pics

always love lookin at pics on this site, always so interesting! i see your kitchenaid stainless door model is there too, take it that is the kd-16 you had mentioned before? beautiful machine!
 
Congrats on your first wash in!

Great collection you have going there, Kevin! You have not been "at it" that long, but you have found some wonderful machines.

I don't think that pink door would look right on your 62 Maytag though... <:
 
You have some nice machines there. I had a Frigidaire skinni-mini when I first moved into my trailer in 1993. It worked pretty good, very slow drying, but that's when I found out the dryer duct was severely plugged with lint. I'm surprised there wasn't a fire. I gave them to the person I was buying the trailer from after I got the Sears Shredmore set.
 
3 temp valves

Looks like you guys had a great time! Call it what ever you like, but there is nothing wrong with a last minute wash-in!

Also the early A906 models had the thermostatic controlled 3 temp valve for a bit of time. At the moment I'm currently working on an '06 (with the focus on the A806) change history log guys - look for it in the next week or so! Hopefully will put an end to the guessing games. ;-)

First Time Hosting?!!!

I never would have guessed, Kevin. I'm honored to have been invited. Frankly, I don't think it could have gone any smoother if it were professionally orchestrated. ...
And, as I said before; a great way to "let my hair down" on my "Friday" (since I'm off Tuesday & Wednesday)LOL.Fun,it was (still telling my friends about it.) Fantastic, YES!!!!Don't know where I would have more fun on a Monday!
Right from the 6PMish arrivals,getting acquainted;(YES,nice meeting you; Joe & Mike)followed by downstairs to the "Laundry Lab" LOL! And then it was On Your Mark, Get Set; (machines were already loaded)and machine one was started, then at a later interval; #2 and last, but NOT least, Ta Da!! # 3 commenced. Good times were shared by all as the "safety" lid switches were tricked as we monitored the progression of each machine.
Then, as though perfectly planned,after the cycle of the last wash was completed; the Dinner Bell rang, and it was off to Kevins' Magic Kitchen. But; not w/o a little help from the "Team" bringing freshly washed laundry up to the main dryer LOL (will work for food Ha Ha!!) The Reward?? Enjoying an exquisitely prepared meal in a SKYLINE VIEW Dining Room!
Great Meal Kev!!
But wait!! the fun wasn't over yet. There was one more load still waiting for us in the Kenmore Elite Catylist!!! We wrapped up this fun evening watching this multi-faceted washer auger away and looking over the collection.AND,just before the cycle completed;the tripod came out, a group photo was taken and...........LIGHTS OUT!
Kevin, your first hosting!
My first wash-in attending!
LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEXT,LOL...
