. Let me know when you are coming I'll make reservations at the Duluth Hilton for us.
 
I can't stop laughing!!

It looks like the three of you had a blast. Thanks for sharing.

What an awesome machine. That's the first time I saw a suds saver in action. What a fascinating system.

Who would have thought that Maytag would have installed such an easy-to-override safety switch! (If ONLY they all could be that way. I agree with Robert -- there should be no hidden cycles!)

Great videos, guys! I had to wait til I went home for lunch to watch them---YouTube is blocked at work. I laughed at the clothesline episode because I was wondering what dryer existed that Robert wouldn't know how to operate, LOL.

Great Maytag---and new, to boot. I love how far up the water comes on the agitator. Many happy, carefree loads to you.
 
It's okay, Robert

I know the model of Frigidaire dryer you're used to, and I can see where Geoff's would be confusing.

I found this in one of my brochures--it's even the sought-after, Sheer Look, control-tower model!

Apparently they were still producing condensers back then. Oddly enough, all we ever find here in Tucson are the Flowing Heat models... *sigh*

I'll give up a tent for a night there with you!
;>)

I wonder how he will do with hanging up shirts.
Louis I'm sure I'll do just fine if someone would show me how to start the darn thing. Maybe Greg is right, I need to find the owners manual for this thing on eBay.

Love that Nate! How fun, the CLI-57 no less. I love how the wind flows along the ground and up through the pant legs and out the top. Were such a creative group aren't we? I love that!
 
This video was great! So much better than the re-run of Law and Order, SVU I skipped to watch it. Even my partner took a look now and then, and had some lecherous comments about our Webmaster.

Robert, one of the laundry rules we have in our house is "We never put in the dryer, what we can hang on the line." Our solar clothes dryer gets a lot of use. But, we both grew up in the country and laundry really was done only once a week on Mondays. Back then, a dryer could never keep up with a washer unless one owned a Frigidaire, so everything but towels and jeans went on the line. Old habits are hard to break.
 
WashTime!!!

Hi Guys, looks like a fab time was had by all, Geoff, love your line up of machines, so pristine...and the Maytag sudz save is all your birthdays come at once, the Maytag model E is the Hotpoint model A over here, must have been some sort of alliance for that one, did Hotpoint USA have the same wringers do you know??

Don, you will have to tell us which old soap powder gave the best "High" and aroma...

Robert, you definately need a lesson in line drying...LOl, funny, I always had you down as a "stretch em out" and let the world see your whitest whites kind of guy...

No lessons necessary Mike, there will be no clothes lines in my future, Neal would kill me at the idea of hanging any "ugly" lines through our backyard and his gardens. And your assumption is correct, I am a "stretch em out" and let the world see your whitest whites kind of guy, just not on the clothesline ;)
 
"Neal would kill me at the idea of hanging any "ugly" lines through our backyard and his gardens."

Our line is on a retractable wheel attached to the fence so it hides most of the time. I love sheets that are line dried. So nice-smelling and crisp to slide into at bedtime. But, I can understand how Neal feels. It just that when one's backyard ends and becomes a pasture with farm animals and outbuildings like ours does, the laundry on the line is one of the best looking things in the area. Can't beat those rows of Jockey Midway Boxer Briefs and Idaho redneck wife-beaters. ;o)
 
Beautiful Eugene

After the wash cycle, when the WP/KM's spin for about a minute, the valve goes CLANG before the grand spray rinsing starts. This keeps the washing liquors pure and undiluted for the next load.

Your fabulous Maytag sprays for a full minute. Does it clang as well. Couldn't tell in the vid., but I can't imagine that full minute of rinse water going into the "suds."

Thanks for thinking of me.
 
More of the fun ...

Just thought I'd share some of these photos with everyone; we really did have a great time!!

As I said earlier, my laundry room will never be the same; which is a really good thing!!

Enjoy ...

An over-suds of 1950's Oxydol; it took 3 rinses to get the suds out of these towels (won't do that again ... or ... maybe I will!).

Here's a classic ...

Here's a Robert classic ... gotta get that Oxydol "hit"!!

I think he's about ready to take a big swig of that wash water! :-)

Heads In!!!

Sort of reminds you of that Frigidaire ad, huh? This one won't give them a headache, but could leave ugly marks on their foreheads!!
