Hi Thank you all so much for the welcome. I have to catch up--tell you why later, (ah life!)
Out in Angola where I used to live, I left a twin-tub Dexter in the garage which I think frigilux is looking for. might be able to get it by the end of January. The stereo washing is awesome but the draining is pathetic, the control and valves weak. Needs a nice high speed Sears Craftsman Pump frankensteined aboard.
When i saw Uni's new find, the 47 GE, I wondered about the agitation, how strong it would be, finally noticing that the vanes extend slightly beyond the plate. You know what that means: tons of swishing power. Two of my Easy agitators extend that way , and the agitation is way more interesting than the one whose vanes reach only to the end of the plate. Also In Angola is an avacoado lit-up programmed Lady KENMORE WITH one of the coolest agitator I've ever seen. it has a cool name, but alas i can't recall. It was pure white like the interior and by twisting the cap you could extend plastic fins, at variable lenghts that hid in slots at the bottom of each vane. It was insane. Maybe some day old lady Flechenschteen will give it to me.
My old GE does this wierd thing that puzzled the hell out of me until I read Robert's thread. I usually by pass the spray rinse since I/m only using the mini-basket and don't want a lot of water. With a wash and a rinse, the GE throws off enough water to exactly fill the Hoover Portable to the load line--great rag water or for other nasty stuff. But when I use it for a full load, it does this crazy thing after the wash cycle. WASH>SPIN>SPRAY> STOP, then another spray with the machine off, then another pause before the rinse fill. One day I timed it. You may have guessed 45 seconds.--just like Robert's. It's got to be a vestigal suds-lock cycle. Why? Because that GE spins so fast aand whips the suds so furiously, the water hurling back into the tub, and swirling all over during the spin. So the suds lock is still around in 19 sixtysomething.
Norge folks. Been looking at the pics and flix. How about all the rinsing: a spray after the wash, a spray after the rinse--long long sprays, AND AN OVER-FLOW. Talk about decadence. You gotta be kidding me! Maybe that's why they ranked Number one in soil removal.
Easy folks. When i get my digital and camcorder, I'll show you that the Easy spin works exactly like the Easy Auto in our website commercial. But most of all I can't wait to show you all the high speed, high agitation SUDS-RETURN on a Whirl-aid, Kitchenpool frankenstein.
Finally, isn't that new dude from Brazil the best.
